I like this a lot. I feared it would be just words but i think it has the perfect level of sonic illustration of whats's said.

[@jean-philippedetinguy1988]

I'd love more interview, more documentary ! thanks

[@n3wttron]

Great sound examples and nice to hear Serge Talk about it!

[@auurbjarnadottir6138]

Thank you Serge, for explaining that great machine.

[@bcbcbcbcbc]

Thank you, that was truely facinating. The background sound examples are a great touch.

[@supercompooper]

High praise indeed. Deserved!

[@jurj4108]

Wow, that was an amazing video! Thanks for uploading. I love this guy :) Wonderful how passionate he is explaining his work.

[@radiowaves13]

Great interview and sounds, thanks!

[@GhostKitchenBand]

Very cool! Just rewatched this again. Your doc convinced me to buy an NTO a couple years ago and I still love it!

[@TayTayMakesBeats]

Just got mine and I love it! Serge seems like such a cool dude too.

[@LukeTeaford]

Thanks for this video-- so much interesting music to go with the concepts.

[@belempa1]

Great video , thank you

[@LeslieRollins]

This is fantastic, thank you. I would happily support a Patreon account @ $5 USD/mo to have a steady stream of detailed examinations, histories, and patching lessons from Serge.

Genial !

Good job. Now I want it

Oooohhh. Mr. Hoffman has Serge’s seal of approval regarding his contributions to the NTO module!?! A seeming impressed SergeT. Said that he only let R. Hoffman present his modules today, and is impressed with his PWM enhancement that was consequential to his efforts in broadening the capabilities of these Serge modules! That has got to feel good, no?! The demo really does present the NTO as a beautiful voice of authority! I know that the classical synth lab at the college nearby to where I live has a Serge setup, with OG paperface modules. I hope I can persuade someone over there to let me in there to give a listen to some old school electronics synth circuitry. Maybe if I bring a little KORG SQ1 and a Bluetooth speaker to plug it all into and get sound, without any risk to their monitors or speakers. GREAT JOB WITH THE INTERVIEW, and BEAUTIFUL DEMOS!! More please?! THANKS FOR SHARING!!

I had a nice Serge system for many years and did live shows and studio work. Really like his "atomic" design philosophy that maximizes flexibility and control.

[@canecreek00]

Great to hear from the legend himself, thank you.

[@tolfred]

Thanks for making this video, a great introduction to this oscillator!

[@serge-modular]

Amazing job, thanks so much, Yan!

[@yanproefrock651]

amazing tech needs amazing care :)

[@octavioduarte865]

Will there be aditional modules visited this way? This is a really unique document!

[@yanproefrock651]

Yes, i'm working on Wave multiplier, Triple Waveshaper + and Ring right now

[@alexeylapshin948]

Correct the spelling of Serge's surname, please

[@yanproefrock651]

Spelling is correct, Serge has validate himself...

@@yanproefrock651 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikolai_Tcherepnin The family name hasn't changed since then. Have a good time studying history, it's really worth it - lots of discoveries and great music! Thank you very much for this rare interview!

[@yanproefrock651]

@@alexeylapshin948 I think you are indeed right. Very strange that Serge haven't correct me on that. Maybe this spelling is allowed by him in french, but i think i will correct that anyway. Thank you for that observation.

[@alexeylapshin948]

@@yanproefrock651 I think he just got used to misspelling. I corrected you not only because of Serge, but primarily because of his great family. Misspelling Nikolai's surname is like misspelling Scriabin or Stravinsky. It's a shame, that modern electronic music generation ignores history, concentrating on gear only. Electronic music didn't come out of nowhere, it's a part of classical heritage. So, it's not about Serge, it's about appreciation of art, not just fancy gear
