I would pay for a patreon/course from you on creating ambient music.
I'll think about it. Thanks for the feedback!

Me too! 4:46
Cool.. so much can be done with this machine. Love it..
Love love love the S1, take it almost everywhere i go.
Taking notes, thanks 📝
Thank you for another inspiring and informative S1 video!
These videos are making me love the S1. I just bought a second one. Once I learn to make better sounding ambient plucks… It’s gonna be 🔥!
Try using just the attack and decay section of the envelope with sustain and release set to 0. Put attack on full and modify decay to taste. You might also want to hold shift and turn the square wave dial to manually set the pulse width to a suitable timbre as well.
@@Metamerist625Thanks a lot! I’m going to try this when I get home 🙌🏾
I got a great sound with a little attack, little decay, no sustain, and a little release. 🙌🏾
magnific !
Really amazing!
Great stuff, thank you for the explanation!
I painted the groove in on the knobs of my s1, huge improvement!
Brilliant!..
Beautiful stuff!
Grande come al solito. Grazie infinite
Thanks for putting this together,S1 menu diving is a pain so walkthroughs are super helpful
The menu isn't that big. Pretty shallow, for diving.
There are lots complicated menu names. Seems one has to keep referring to the manual for what they do. Better maybe to just play it as in the vid. Great machine…
@@noodlingaround2023I would be happier if they had used something other than a calculator display for the menue as the abbreviations they use to fit the menu on to that are unintuitive. It is otherwise a decent Synth.
Absolutely correct..
Coming from mc101 here, can confirm there's much worse menu diving than the s1
Thank you
Cool, I want one.
There's an Amazon link for buying it in the description. It's an affiliate link, it doesn't change anything for you but it helps me a lot. Cheers
great tutorial! really wish they add a knob catch mode (already exists in other roland gear) with the next software update. then we'll be able to tweak more params live, especially shift + knob params. what knob catch mode does for other roland gear - when you turn a knob it does not change a parameter right away, but you can scroll to current param setting which is shown on the screen and then change it.
That would be a great update!
We are always better when record is not on...❤
So true 😆
The S-1 in general is cheating, and I love it
Great videos!!! Have you ever considered some Thonk knobs? 🤔 I can’t see where your envelope knobs are at 😑.
Yes I'll definitely have to get them
While a random function is nice, having it controlled by D-motion is childish and impractical.
LOL
I'm not a fan of d motion, but I it could be used in a creative way as many other features, depends on you. Anyway I wasn't just showing how it works here.
"childish" lmao calm your tits, judgey
