Generative chord progressions made easy

[@AaronStatic]

Another fantastic use of my modules. Thanks Omri 😊

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Thank you so much for this lovely collection!

[@chitlun]

Seconded, your modules are excellent! Cheers man ✌️

[@fuglbird]

Yes, you modules are at the correct pitch. Thank you! I'm surprised how many quantizers are out of pitch.

[@bonaventura_AKA_ben]

Just subscribed to your yt channel. Thanks for your modules! Are you on Cardinal as well?

[@AaronStatic]

@@bonaventura_AKA_ben Thanks for the sub! Yes I do seem to be included in Cardinal according to their github

Hardware now sadly neglected since the algorithm suggested one of your videos last month and brought me VCV. My late evenings lately are 1. Pick an Omri Cohen video 2. Try to keep up 3. Notice it is 1 AM and I'm only 2/3 through. This is tonight's experiment! Thank you Omri!

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Oh man, that's so cool :) I'm sorry you don't use your hardware so much, but I'm glad you enjoy my work! Cheers

@Richard Mixin lol, same situation here, my wife has started to ask if I have an internet GF...

[@varjen018]

Same here, except i have ZERO musical background and i still try to keep up and learn. Fascinating stuff.

[@chitlun]

Such a great comment! 👍

[@anthonybrady3540]

Oh the hours you can burn away with VCV and Omri…❤😂

[@DrewMarold]

This is the second of your videos I've watched now, and I really like the way you build things up and explain the reasoning why.

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Thanks so much!

[@nuttob]

I recently bought the VCV pro version and this is the first of your videos I followed step by step and I learned a ton!!!

Thanks Omri, those Aaron Static modules are exactly what I need right now 🙌

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Happy to help!

[@zadude009]

you make this all look so simple - I love your explanations and thank you very much for being part of this process of learning modular. Always great to see your videos. Thank you!

[@OmriCohen-Music]

I appreciate it, thank you!

[@krudler406]

dude you are my penultimate hero! thanks to your awesome vids i have figured out how to set up a generative patch to send MIDI sequences to my three desktop synths for infinite good times - chord, arp, and bass as above. the power of the computer for sequence generation with hands on control of the sounds ....omg good times. i love you man, thank you soooooo much 🔥🔥🔥

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Glad you enjoy the experience :) Cheers!

[@bigbaby1345]

This is probably one of the prettiest patches you’ve made yet. Cheers omri!

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Glad you like it!

[@mr.kaplanmusic]

Thank you so much for explaining modular in terms we can all understand! If you ever are in Nashville let me know. I'll show you my studio and buy you dinner!

[@OmriCohen-Music]

That would be so cool! Thank you :)

[@David_K_Booth]

Thank you so much! I've built a few stochastic tracks using Reaktor or VCV, and this is exactly the sort of guidance I needed in order to move up a level.

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Glad it helped!

[@David_K_Booth]

@@OmriCohen-Music Something went wrong when I tried to register on Patreon, so, haveyouacoffee and I'll I try to sort it out.

[@ImpulzReponz]

Really nice. I love the use of the Aaron Static modules to define the scale and all of the noise to fill things out.

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Glad you like it!

[@TheJimNicholson]

As always, it was fun to follow along with you and set up this patch. I found I wanted more of the 5th channel (the noise through the PEQ6) than I could get with mixer settings, so I ran the lines from Caudal each through a rectifier before feeding the signal to the PEQ6 levels.

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Yeah, that's a good way to get positive voltages from Caudal. There's also Add5 from JW that is great for that

[@zimou3040]

just tried it with my two analog synths as sources it was a great moment thank you so much your videos are so usefull

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Thanks so much!

[@MrChrisDonnelly]

Thanks so much man, I've watched a few of your videos, and they are very informative and deep diving. Of course I have to watch more, and wait for the 'Oh yes' moments. Please keep up the good work.

[@Fraser-P]

First of all, thanks for all you do Omri, VCV Rack is really the answer to my music making aspirations and your guides have been essential in my learning process. Now a wee bit of advice for other numpties like me who download this patch, before you spend half the morning fiddling with your audio drivers and settings because you are getting no sound, try unmuting the MixMaster...

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Oh... Yeah, I always mute the mixer so there's no chance of getting a burst of sound when loading the patch. Sorry about that... But I'm glad you enjoy my work! Thank you!

[@Fraser-P]

@@OmriCohen-Music No problem mate, it makes perfect sense to do that, I was just being a little dim.

[@buddingsignal]

an infinite thank *YOU* Omri. i think this might be my favorite tutorial from you. it is soooo beautiful. i will have to follow the tutorial multiple times to understand how all this beauty is achieved. and i haven't even added additional modules as you suggested. i can sit for a long time just listening to the tutorial version. 🙏 😃 i did add some valhalla shimmer. hehe.

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Oh yes, more reverb is always welcome :) Glad you enjoyed it!

[@chay5804]

wow! Amazing patch. Thanks for sharing & explaining everything so well, so useful for a beginner 👍👍

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Glad it was helpful!

[@000aleph]

Great. I like it more for the ideas that go into it then for the result.

[@OmriCohen-Music]

[@dpm2213]

I know this is something I want to learn and I know I am capable of learning it, but my creativity has just not been there. I need to see the thought process in action and these videos do exactly that, thank you!

[@OmriCohen-Music]

I'm happy you enjoy them :) Don't give up! Let me know if there's anything I can help with.

[@kimtae858]

Such a pretty patch chock full of modulation. I always come away from your videos with loads of little systems and ideas but I think my lack of music theory prevents any of my attempts from sounding good, haha.

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Well, something like the Aaron Static modules is a perfect way of enjoying patching without any music theory. The modules will do everything for you I guess :)

[@twatmunro]

Music theory isn't that hard. You can pick the bulk of what you need up in a couple of hours at most. At least we don't have to do that Ling Ling 25 hours a day practice to make great patches.

[@Snardash]

Thats beautiful.

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Cheers!

[@mdwgtn]

I just noticed you group-selecting to move multiple neighbouring components throughout this amazing video that I've returned to. Just in case you haven't discovered it yet, if you hold CTRL when you drag a component, it will "push" whatever is in its way.

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Thanks! I did try that a few times but it never works for me and it always moves stuff in weird ways...

[@HpBeck_Fieldrecordings]

[@prodsym]

Hello Omri, I am new to the world of modular synth and definitely enjoying every moment. I would like to know how to use sends (eg. reverb send in this video) using the MindMeld mixer. Thanks for your time.

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Hi! The MinMeld mixer has an expander that has sends and returns. You just load the epxnader and place it to the right of the mixer and it should work. Then you have send outputs and return inputs to connect the effects. Just make sure to set the effect to 100% wet so you don't get the signal twice. Let me know if it works for you :)

[@prodsym]

@@OmriCohen-Music thanks a lot... I have learnt so much from your channel

[@OmriCohen-Music]

[@matiaskritz]

Hello Omri, I wanted to ask you what commercial modules are helpful to create generative patches, is there a collection that makes the difference? Or, in general, are they small details that commercial modules bring to more advanced users. Thank you for your time!

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Hi! Well, there are so many free modules available that are perfect for generative patches. That said, if you want to experiment with interesting approaches, I really recommend the Mysteries collection from Vult. But again, there are many free modules that are really good.

[@matiaskritz]

@@OmriCohen-Music Omri, thank you very much for your time and for the answer! It is incredible what I have learned in these last months with your Gumroad courses, I was able to acquire both and the truth is that I am very happy to have found this study channel, greetings from Buenos Aires !

[@jerrycharles66]

Hi Omri, I'm learning so much from your channel and intend to take your courses soon too. Beginner question but does using something like the ScaleCV prevent having to tune Oscillators or are those two separate things?

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Hey, thanks so much! In VCV, most, if not all, oscillators will be tuned to C by default so there's no need to tune things. That said, detuning oscillators might give some movement to everything. Also, having the oscillators tuned to C means that you will get, most of the times, the C scale (minor, major, and so on). Does this make sense?

[@jerrycharles66]

@@OmriCohen-Music it does make sense, thank you!

[@bonaventura_AKA_ben]

Omri I've decided to start using the MindMeld Mixer and send effects setup. Can you point me to a video you did on setting it up? Thanks!
