Creating a drum beat with only Pamela's PRO Workout and Plaits
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 окт 2024
- This modular synthesis technique creates a full drum beat with kick, snare, and high hat using only two modules:
1) Pamela's PRO Workout (Clock and modulation source)
2) Plaits (Oscillator with multiple synth engines)
A version using a Quadratt (attenuverter and voltage offsets) instead of the cross operations can be found in this video: • Creating a drum beat w...
Pamela’s Workout has to be one of the best names for a piece of music gear ever.
Just as I am ordering Pams, hoping this would be possible with my Plaits 🙏 Thank you for the clear walkthrough!
Had to watch this cuz I have those two popular mods. Very good understanding of these two mods, better than my understanding.
Cool technique ! Now i want to try that with multiple tracks on PPW and randomize the cv sent to model, within a certain level range... thanks for sharing :)
thanks for the inspiration, super useful patch and groovy as hell.
Nice!! Despite owning these I just built a diy version of Traffic just to do this, then I found this one 😂 I learned a lot though by soldering my own module 😎
Dude, I knew this was possible but I didn't know how. Thanks so much.
Great lesson! Thank you.
Babe, I can create drums with a guitar case, a rock and a tambourine. ;) Literally anything can be drums in a digital environment.
@@5minuterevolutionary493 I was gonna say this isn't a digital environment, but both of these modules are digital. 😅
Couldnt you just use the unused channels of pam as a modulation rather than using another lfo? Quantizing the random waveform works pretty good
Yes, you certainly can! I'm planning another video using Pam for all sequencing and modulation.
@@Perceptes and then use your sleep wake cycles to add a little fill pattern every 4th or 8th rotation. Only issue is you start to eat up your Pams outs. What would be cool is if they gave us something like virtual outs that arent actually going to an out. Pams Ultimate Workout maybe...
Good video. Why are you using ochd to modulate instead of the remaining Pam's outputs?
It's just quicker to set up, and the modulation was not the point of the video. I'm planning another video soon that will be more of a "Pam does it all" approach.
Makes Sense. Thanks for the tutorial. I assumed I could do this with plaits but wasn't sure how to set it up. This was exactly what I was looking for.
The video is amazing dude. But ... plates are what you eat off and plaits is a braided hair style.
This has been discussed to death. It is pronounced different ways between American and British English. I'm glad you enjoyed the video, though! :)
@@Perceptes I watched the Waltons as a child. I don't recall the little girls having plates in their hair. It may well have been discussed to death but there is only one correct pronunciation. Now if we were discussing Aluminium V Aluminum I would take your point, even though Aluminum would still be wrong.
Obviously I'm just having a bit of fun with you there.
@@boblove2912- exactly right, plaits has only one pronunciation.
I have a daughter so was well versed in doing plaits when she was little.
It's literally in the dictionary both ways: www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/plait
@@Perceptes - do people really pronounce it ‘plates’ in the US?
Why can't Americans pronounce plaits properly?
It can be pronounced both ways. It's literally in the dictionary. www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/plait
Great video! Great to work with limitations and get the most out of a system 👍
Love pams for so many reasons. little traffic hack nice.
Nice Idea. Thanks for sharing.
the annoying thing is that the settings for the different drums (or even other sounds since model modulation is really sweet in anycase) are usually never matching. This also happens on other mutable modules - where there are modes to flip through sounds but the settings when sharing similar knob values, sound wrong or boring - so i wish there was an easier way to automate this stuff instead of having to also pump cv into all of the other inputs per step - like some sort of a memory or last used setting - like the SDS Oscillator does
Great point. I haven't looked into it but I think there are modules designed for this type of thing, kind of like a "preset" module. I vaguely recall there might be one by Shakmat. But it would certainly be amazing if Plaits had something like that built in.
F’ing great video!❤❤❤
me: I operated a sound system for a church band in my past.
I listen to a lot of electronic music.
I cannot play an instrument.
RUclips: watch this!
me: like and subscribe...

fml XD
I was in IT and electronic repair and haven't taken a music class since the 6th grade. Watched a few modular synth videos and now i own 5 rows of modules and make some basic music. I had to cut myself off from anymore purchases until I fully learn everything i have. It can get out of hand but it's certainly fun!
@@VinceFinemMusicToo funny. But, that’s what happens!
Very good stuff
Would this work with pams new workout?
I don't have PNW so I can't say for sure, but I don't think it has the cross operations.
Does this work with Pam's New Workout?
Can't say for sure, as I don't have PNW, but I believe the cross operations are exclusive to PPW.
I though, why the hell do I need a pam's?? Now I know 😬 started to dabble into eurorack last year and have my first 6u 84hp filled. But it looks like I need to expand very soon 😆
Nice straight forward content, subbed!
Thank you! Pam is very versatile. It was one of my first modules and I use it in just about every patch.
Awesome!!!
Sheepishly admitting I didn’t know Pam’s could cross op…
Only the "PRO" version has that feature.
I bet you could do a drum beat just with Pam’s only, if you used some stack cables…
Or a couple of drumsticks right on the face plate.
