Pulsar 23: How to create random melodies with Shaos

[@jazmanaut]

One of the best pulsar patching tutorials i have seen. Thanks!

[@Karousin]

Thank you, I really appreciate it!

[@AtlasCastleDk]

That was stunning man 🙏 Happy to find you over here as well 🙂

[@Karousin]

Thanks, I really liked your jam session! Always a pleasure to find new like minded synth heads =)

[@snörre23]

Cool info. Although i am always surprised how many people want to "tune" a chaotic noisemaker like this. I don't think about this in musical terms. Its like banging or rattling on some sheet metal, would you care to tune that ?

[@Karousin]

It's more about possibilities for me... I love the chaotic noisy stuff that the Pulsar can do! But I also love the "softer" side, trying to tame it, see what kind of other places you can take it.

[@lorenz4712]

Awh man now I want the pulsar 23 even more... Keep up the work, great ideas!

[@Karousin]

Thanks, it is a great machine! I'm still learning new stuff all the time!

[@ULTRRRRRLLLLLGHT]

Is there a way to accomplish the bass notes without the deluge? Thanks!

[@Karousin]

You can use the second channel of the pulsar for the bass, but you have to use some kind of MIDI controller to play it chromatically.

[@marke567]

awesome tutorial! I like how the tuned snare sounds. I'm gonna have to try using it as a melodic element, too!

[@Karousin]

Thanks =) Same here, love the sound of that filter! I often use it for a single note that plays now and then. You can do this on the other voices as well, this way you get a bit of polyphonie ;-)

[@jasonfnorth]

Brilliant! Thanks for mentoring us. Love this machine.

[@Karousin]

Thanks, really glad you liked it =) The Pulsar is definitely one of a kind!

[@stevecautious]

Great sound and super clear tutorial. Thanks

[@Karousin]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@KeithDuncanSound]

Superb

[@guiremcguire743]

Nice patching! I loved the track as well. Subscribed!

[@Karousin]

Awesome, thank you!

[@yogawithdom]

Awesome!

[@adamjlipper]

are you just using the Deluge for sequencing or were some of the sounds coming from it too?

[@Karousin]

The drums and the pad starting at 3:54 are coming from the Deluge. The bass and blippy melody are coming from the Pulsar.

[@drgwon]

Nice!!

[@AgustinDavidF]

Super nice!

[@Karousin]

Thanks :-)

[@AntonJohanssonMusic]

Great video! Make more like these!!

[@Karousin]

Thanks, I will :-)

[@nicolomariavilla7024]

Super nice patch, as all the other videos! I noticed however that you always use the attenuator incorrectly (twisted) is it something on purpose?

[@Karousin]

Thanks, really glad you like it =) The manual states that the right connector is the input, the left one the output, so I use them that way. In practice I think there is not a big difference however ;-)

[@nicolomariavilla7024]

Yes i probably interpreted it such as: the right connector is the input (sound source) and the left is the output destination (modulation source) but i agree not much difference its just a little less effective as speaking about range of The knob, at least thats my experience, that s why i wanted to ask if its on purpose to tame down even more the modulation source

[@franciswalker6498]

Very cool

[@Karousin]

Glad you like it!
