This is a video adaptation of a live lecture I did during Eter Festival. There the subject was ”Introduction to Subtractive Synthesis”, but I felt I strayed into modular territories. So for this tutorial I’ve decided to split the content into two parts:
Intro to Modular - Part 1 Subtractive Synthesis (how to make bass, kick, hats and snare)
Intro to Modular - Part 2 Pulsewidth, Sync and FM (examples of lead and pad)
The examples take part on the Nord Modular. A superior environment for learning synthesis.
For sequencing and some effects I’m using an Octatrack. And the Analog Heat is used as an audio interface (only) to record the synth output and also drive WaveWindow (a software oscilloscope).
Enjoy!
