Recreating The Synth Sound of Tenet | Thomann

[@iamvancore]

I appreciate the little nod to the film's subject matter by having the footage of the midi clip playing in reverse

[@ThomannSynthesizers]

finally someone noticed it ❤️😂

[@iamvancore]

@@ThomannSynthesizers haha i literally went through the comments to see whether someone else had pointed it out, as it tripped me up as i was trying to recreate the pattern

[@NeilNileStudios]

Bro I️ only noticed because of this comment.

Incredible. Sounds amazing in headphones.

I knew that somebody will try to remake Goransson's sound and post it on KZbin. Great job!

[@barrnycharlton8951]

that is some very nice feedback. thx ❤️

Aus Zufall gefunden, unglaublich! Danke für diesen Einblick die Arbeit in Video ist auch sehr gelungen, die Umsetzung mit dem Synthesizer wirklich beeindruckend, Danke!

[@darklydreamingdejeur]

Very awesome, always loved that synth motif of Tenet - that shit hits real futuristic, unsettling and uncertain. Love it, and love your recreation. Subscribed! ⚡🎶👊🏾

[@sk8mafia214]

Can’t wait until the Blu-ray so I can see behind the scenes on developing the score

[@xreznr163]

Don't quote me on this but I've heard Ludwig Göransson had to collect each and everyone's sound through online because of Covid and he had to piece it together.

[@FMwin900]

This was awesome. I’m really thinking about buying a moog matriarch.

[@angestellterderantifagmbh]

You could also consider the Behringer Model D. It's an affordable copy of the Minimoog which sounds pretty awesome and has some little extras compared to the original Minimoog

[@cinecho76]

The quality of this video is freaking GREAT ! Your work is too, thank you !

[@YanayGermen]

Just discovered this, amazing and inspiring tutorial, thank you for that.

[@imav.20]

after fiddling with serum, i can understand what you were doing :D and i loved it entirely!!! i enjoyed this entirely hahhaa. i hope you try out "rainy night in tallin". even though you mentioned you're not going to try out a specific track, but im requesting as the main arp in that has two harmonics in which only one can be heard at a time. it sounds like you're playing the arp from "down to up" on the piano roll and "up to down" on the piano roll in terms of arp notes. please do check out ludwig's breakdown on "palindromic" meaning of that particular track. yet you can only hear "one" of them at a time. like if u concentrate only on one, you'll hear that alone.

[@tomwaller8357]

No idea what you're doing with those dials but it sounds excellent.

[@Isothrill]

Its actually quite simple. Hes got two oscillators playing the same notes except one is detuned. Running them both through the same filter and instead of modulating the cutoff as usual, he instead modulates the envelope amount and pitch wheel. When he modulates the envelope amount, instead of hearing more frequencies the sound actually "plucks" from higher and higher frequencies while the cutoff value remains the same.

I tried to assign that triplet to a CC when i recreated this and it was ridiculous hahahahaha. Fantastic tutorial sir👍

[@AshtonGleckman]

Great video!

[@nyssasyratov7453]

how do you get the triplet rhythm?

[@aghnargarcia]

Fantastique...thank you

[@syntheffects]

You can use the preset 3 "Trancy" on a microfreak to get that sound.

[@uja1096]

Could you do a tutorial on how the bass sounds are made in the soundtrack?

[@cyberia3721]

i only see the mid of the film, but i think bass sound are detuned 1 semitone in her lenght, i mean start witn one tone and finish one semitone down. And problably are the typical 2 saws detuned in opossite direction.

[@rubycon9158]

[@ThomannSynthesizers]

Or maybe everything else is?

[@mrlloyd149]

This is amazing! Would you mind sharing a .wav sample of that epic arp please? I would love to sample it in my own projects

[@Jux925]

How to do it all in hardware? It is quite difficult to program such precise sequencer. I was hoping to utilize LFO somehow, any ideas?

[@stevenvandemsky7290]

Finally someone pronounced it correctly: Moog (like Vogue)

[@rars0n]

Is that something you come across often? Because I eventually got out of the habit of saying "moog" by hearing it pronounced correctly so often.

[@stevenvandemsky7290]

Adam Baldwin That’s funny. Everytime I visit the USA, I hear fellow musicians talking about their Moog (like Luke) synths 😅

[@ndf3]

[@AndrewDuncanNZ]

If you don't use the MIDI information of the DAW, can you create such a sequence pattern using only Moog Matriarch?or How?Thx~

[@Thetopnoobpro]

Question: what was your favorite song from the film?

[@ThomannSynthesizers]

I think posterity must be my favorite. Really intense journey

[@JamesCorbettMusic5000]

You could do that with the matriarch inbuilt sequencer rather than midi?

[@Thetopnoobpro]

Question: which was better, the movie or the soundtrack?

[@marcvietor730]

soundtrack - for sure! ;)

[@DbzTO]

Any idea why the Envelope Amount retains the percussion when the Cutoff does not?

[@ThomannSynthesizers]

Because in this particular case the fast attack and short decay time of the filter envelope open the filter only for a short amount of time, resulting in a short burst of high frequency content, which is the nature of most transients and percussive / drum sounds.

[@NigarSuleyman99]

yes yes yes yes yes

[@cyberia3721]

When u said u did the drums on mono, how its done ? i dont really know when im makin asound in mono or stereo, can u help me ?

[@ThomannSynthesizers]

Sure, no problem. First you need to know that a Stereo signal is basically nothing else but two mono signals (one left & one right). So when you are listening to music on a stereo system, each of the speakers plays a different mono signal creating the illusion of 3dimensionality. You can "make something mono" with various hardware or software tools. In Ableton for example it's called "utility". It allows you to choose between 'stereo', 'right only', 'left only' or various gradations of "width" where '100%' is the normal stereo signal '200%' means only the stereo content and '0%' means only the mono content. Hope this helps. Best, Felix

[@ohheyitskevinc]

Nice. Tried this with my Matriarch and gave up and went to Omnisphere instead 😂 btw sounds like the composer used a few presets from Gaikaiju for Omnisphere which came out a year before Tenet - and that soundbank was inspired by earlier Hans Zimmer sounds.

[@gregory7572]

I wonder if you could do a video using a 'west coast' synth, because they achieve the 'percussiveness' almost naturally. CMIIW though.

[@JustPassingByBaby]

does anyone has the midi for the MOOG sound ?

[@ThomannSynthesizers]

simply pause the video at 2:03min. you can recreate it from there. its all the same note and it would works with any note you like

[@mickeytran1936]

Freaking epic

[@manueloncabezon]

Wich camera do use for this video?!??

[@ThomannSynthesizers]

It’s the Sony A7s II. But I‘d say the images are 45% a result of the lighting, 45% a result of the lens and only 10% due to the camera. Best, Felix
