Mar 11, 2024 Tutorial
In this video, I discuss my experience with the Poly-D analog synthesizer and how it sparked my interest in analog synthesis. I explain the basics of the synthesizer, including its tuning issues, oscillator options, and use of filters and effects. I demonstrate how I use the synthesizer to create chord progressions and incorporate it into my music production process.

In this video, I discuss the controversial subscription system of the Current synthesizer and my personal thoughts on it. I then proceed to demonstrate how to create a pad sound using the synthesizer's newest update, utilizing various wave shapes and filters, as well as effects like chorus, delay, and reverb. I also mention the possibility of future tutorials focusing on bass sounds using Current.

In this video, I demonstrate how to create a simple yet powerful additive synthesizer using Bitwig Studio 5.1. By utilizing the new voice stacking feature, which allows up to 16 voices, I show how to create unique and dynamic sounds by manipulating parameters such as pitch, volume, decay, phase, and even velocity. With the ability to save presets, this versatile synthesizer is perfect for producing a wide range of sounds, from bell-like tones to pad sounds with the help of effects like reverb and resonators.

In this video, I explore the new possibilities of creating synthesizers with effects in Bitwig Studio 5.1 using the Filter+ and Sweep devices. I demonstrate how to use the Chappie Chef as an oscillator and the Wavetable LFO for modulation, resulting in a polyphonic synthesizer. Lastly, I introduce the Sweep effect, which allows for interesting sound creation by combining filters and shape bars.

In this video, I discuss my thoughts on the granular engine in the synth and how I miss having a record button. I demonstrate how I use my vocals recorded in a DAW to create a pad sound, adjusting the pitch and experimenting with various settings. I also showcase the use of wave tables, a morphing filter, LFOs, and effects like reverb and delay to create a textured and evolving sound.

In my latest video, I discuss SynPlant 2, a groundbreaking synthesizer with the new GenoPatch feature that uses machine learning to create FM patches from samples. This feature allows users to generate multiple FM patches from a single sample, with options to adjust tuning, volume, and grow out different sound variations. I believe this is a game-changing innovation in the world of synthesizers and hope to see other synths incorporate similar features in the future.

In this video, I talk about the question of why Bitwig's grid is better than a modular VST. I argue that while other modular environments may offer more features, the deep integration of the grid within Bitwig allows for a more streamlined and creative workflow. It's not about the specific features, but rather about how you approach making music. Bitwig's grid provides the right-sized modules to quickly bring your ideas to life and have fun while doing it. I also touch on the idea that Bitwig is in the right position in terms of pricing, features, and workflow, and that it offers a playful and enjoyable experience.

In this video, I talk about the release of Bitwig Studio 3.0 and how excited I am that it's finally available for download. I mention that there is a demo version available for those who want to try it out. I also mention that users can download the presets I created for the grid by going to the settings and packages section. I demonstrate how to use the presets with the MPE controller and discuss the different types of presets I created, including pads and beat patterns. I also mention the idea of randomizing presets and demonstrate how it works using the pulley synth and the grid. I discuss the limitation of not being able to persist the generated presets, but overall, I express my excitement for the new release and invite viewers to provide feedback and bug reports for future improvements. I conclude the video by thanking the viewers for watching and wishing them fun with Bitwig 3.0.
May 21, 2019 Tutorial
In this video, I discuss the topic of frequency modulation (FM) and the differences between exponential and linear FM. I explain how exponential FM works by modulating the nodes of an oscillator, while linear FM modulates the frequency directly. I also mention the confusion between phase modulation (PM) and frequency modulation in some synthesizers. I highlight the Phase 4 synthesizer as a great tool for FM sounds and talk about my recent EP release on Bandcamp. I share my process of creating music videos, focusing on creating the music first and then editing the video to fit the music. I explain how I use empty wave files to create a BPM grid in Final Cut. Lastly, I provide an update on the gravity modulator in the Bitwig Discord community and thank viewers for their engagement and support.
