This video is part 1 of a 2 part series I'm doing about the Volca NuBass. This video turned out to be less straightforward than I had expected (hoped). I am a big fan of the Volca series and typically feature them in one way or another on this channel, BUT the NuBass has left me scratching my head. A lot. Nevertheless, I do love the sounds it can make. I use the original Volca Bass for a lot of context in this video. Take a look and please make sure to comment if think I'm missing something. Thanks a lot for watching!
TIMELINE
00:00 Doing a little hypertempo stuff on the NuBass. You have to open the tempo range (global settings) to get the sequencer to run this fast.
00:26 Intro. Discussion of why I got a Volca NuBass and where this video is headed.
02:56 Volca Bass: Envelope
05:56 Volca NuBass: Envelope (a.k.a. how do I hold a note?)
11:55 Volca NuBass: MIDI (Arturia Keystep)
14:30 Volca NuBass: MIDI (other MIDI sources)
17:18 Volca NuBass: MIDI (sequencing with Korg SQ-1)
CLOSE-UP LOOK AT THE NUBASS
18:56 Oscillators and Envelope
24:45 Low Frequency Oscillator
28:00 Searching For Cool Sounds
"BUT THE VOLCA BASS CAN..."
30:20 Discussing some favorite features of the original Volca Bass.
33:00 Outro. Maybe I should watch more KZbin? Or less? idk.
36:30 At this point I admit confusion and retreat to something I understand. The NuBass VTO's (vacuum tube oscillators) got me thinkng about oscillators in general. I demonstrate a simple DIY physical audio oscillator and run it through some reverb (the Slo pedal from Walrus Audio). This sort of "loudspeaker twitching", and much more, can be found in the great book "Handmade Electronic Music" by Nicolas Collins.
