Make Noise 0-COAST Semi-Modular Synth Demo

[@vizdotnu]

It also functions as a modem.

the best demo dudes chattin it up. Makes me happy.

[@stevenlebeau]

This has to be the best synth demo video I've ever seen. No beating around the bush, just full-on sonic onslaught. Love you forever.

[@RachelsSweetie]

I thought that said full-on sonic manslaughter.

[@opwave79]

I watched this 4 years ago and it convinced me to get the 0 Coast. It’s still a key part of my system :)

[@paulnielsen3256]

Thanks for being one of very few synth players who knows how to program as well as create solid, interesting, often melodic compositions.

[@davidpape1160]

I was jamming with my 0-coast last week and it struck me that it felt like jamming with a TB-303. It's a little box, it has a very distinct sound (certainly compared to most of the small desktop monosynths in the same price range), you can set up a patch and then rock the overtone/multiply/decay time knobs like you would the 303's filter cutoff and envelope, and it works really, really well in the context of techno. That comes out sounding flatter and less compelling than when I thought it, but I was imagining an alternative history of dance music...

[@skormm-v7z]

Hello David. What cables or adapters to record the 0-coast into a DAW. What's the connection?

[@cyprn6600]

Amazing synth it looks like so much fun. On the other hand that didn't improve my headache at all. I regret nothing

[@meepage332]

14:14 is a beautiful moment, love how excited he gets at how crazy this little box is.

[@truecuckoo]

The best video! ❤️ Lovely!

[@3Quils72]

More so than the "what" it does was the full on tutorial on the "how" it makes its noises!! Thank you so much for the amazing explanation on how a modular/semi-modular synth work!!!

[@nomdeplore7604]

Thanks for selling me on this years back. now, I've just ordered 0-ctrl and bought STREGA month ago. ACE!

[@jaguarvssnake]

How’s that all working out for you? I fear I’m on the same path

[@nomdeplore7604]

@@jaguarvssnake it's quite enjoyable! I (just today) ordered the soft pop2 by Bastel. soon, I think I'll have a very enjoyable and ascetically pleasing rig to make some extended bleeps, bloops and if I'm real lucky BLOOOOOOORPS!

Fancy seeing you here Mr wizard

[@GuitarsAndSynths]

it is tons of fun! and for modular a good entry point

[@Antionio3]

Thanks, I love the very explanatory intro before deep diving into some of the more complex ideas from the manual. Especially these patch examples start to live once you show how to interact with them while explaining. Fantastic.

[@O0O0oo0oO0o0o0o0oO0]

Yeah, more bleeps to please my gf with. I am sure she will love me more after I buy this for me.

[@ReneeNme]

My wife has threatened to make me sleep on the floor in the same room where I have my gear set up if I make another big purchase, seriously. lol. I'm sure she wouldn't follow through on that, but what she essentially has done is drawn the line in the sand. " If you want something new, something has to go ". Drats !!! But I like ALL !!! of my gear. ( sigh )

[@dariusmorgan8302]

Badass jams! I've lost count how many times I watched/rewatched this one. I finally snagged one!!! Ohhhh man...it's EXACTLY what my system needed. It's cuz of the inspiration from videos like yours that my system has turned into something i used to only dream of having. Many thanks to you, DivKid, Dr Nim, Lightbath, Omri Cohen, Loopop, Red Means Recording, Cinematic Laboratory...on and on and on...too many to mention. But, thanks. The last couple years since my modular journey began have been nothing short of revelatory for my music & creativity. Make Noise stuff always fascinated & intimidated me and I wanted to be in a certain place of understanding before I committed. So happy to have then in my system finally

[@mylarmelodies]

Thanks Darius, have fun with it!! 🙌

[@qwerwerterytrtyutyuiyuiouiop]

[@mylarmelodies]

Thanks m8 x

[@robertsyrett1992]

I love your enthusiasm!

[@AiurIkiza]

i love the little flicks you do when you quickly modify a parameter i do that as well sometimes

[@ThoseSleepless]

I am dying to hear the O-Coast with other Eurorack modules... Both it's oscillators through filters and other oscillators through whatever can be used from the O-Coast. I'm curious how much of a foundation the O-Coast can be to a budding Eurorack that only has a few modules on it if that makes sense?

[@mylarmelodies]

Austin Black Skip to the end and there's a cheeky unlinked video with that in mind. And to answer your question, to quite a large extent I think, keep thinking the coast would pair amazingly with MicroBrute too, mines in a lockup, need to put them together

[@Zvark]

Watching this again because I just finally got one over the weekend, awesome!

[@TheBelse]

Yep, I agree, the best synth channel on KZbin. Your excitement kills me, bang on mate. Am glad you don't work at my local music shop....I'd be starving.

[@iNuchalHead]

It's not _exactly_ subtractive, but it certainly isn't FM, additive, etc... what is it? Incertae sedis?

[@geecen]

West coast. low pass gates and wave folding.

[@Koettnylle]

0-coast...

[@geecen]

But there's nothing East coasst about it

[@zwerty007]

technically it is additive. just not traditional additive where sines of different frequencies are literally summed together

[@geecen]

Surely that's what additive means? You can make any wave shape with additive, including squares and saws etc. This doesn't mean that every saw is made by additive synthesis/

[@AdvancedSoul]

Holy shit, nice, love your performance towards the end.

[@davegillett7135]

very tasty but I'm a bit more east coast now that I've given up d rugs

[@ReneeNme]

Indeed they are :)

[@ReneeNme]

mylarmelodies What would be your take on the Arturia ~ Microbrute ? I am looking for a small affordable synth that I can place under my PC desk that I can drag out and piddle around with instead of having to go to my music room. So far, the Arturia looks like the best bang for my buck. They can be had here in the U.S. for under $300 and they do seem pretty versatile from the KZbin review videos that I have watched.

[@mylarmelodies]

ReneeNme If you search for MicroBrute on here I did the top video :3 It's wicked - I've been using one live in band stuff for the last few months and it's been stable/great, though obviously minikeys are not for everyone, they're fine for programming the sequencer. I think it's one of the best value analog synths of all time (currently at least) with wicked character, so well worth checking out. But yeah, watch the vid for more!

[@ReneeNme]

mylarmelodies Thank you. All I have got ( besides my small guitar selection = 6, amplifiers = 5, and small PA system ) is my Micron, Yamaha CS1x, and an old school Yamaha QY10 Music Sequencer. That said, I am thinking the Microbrute would be a neat addition to my collection. Maybe it might even inspire me to actually produce something. Again, thanks. BTW, I will make sure to check out that video. On my way there now.

[@iammadeofsound]

Holy shit, just the a self playing patch is worth every penny. Beauty. Thanks for the demo!

[@MaxMakerChannel]

I have no idea what you are doing or talking about. Oo

[@CaalamusTube]

But it sounds good enough to make you want to try though, don't it?!

[@evetsnitram8866]

Its not that difficult. You take a sound wave and play with the filters to make it brighter or duller. Add an LFO for vibrato, shorten the duration of the notes and you get sequences of notes, then again tweek the filters to make them brighter or duller. Then you can speed up the sequences of notes faster or slow them down. Then sync it up to a drum machine and repeat. That's what most people do so the video concentrates on that to help sell it. Others like to go beatless with longer sustained sounds for ambient stuff. There's more you can do but that's the general gist of it. Looks like good portable fun!

[@edwardprue]

Ummm...except that there are no filters on this synth. A good reason to watch the video again, I guess.

[@KILO993]
