- Doing no input with a Miku Stomp pedal is a pretty dumb idea right? So how come I really like it :D
The guy I bought it from has a miku video: • Korg Miku Stomp VÄRDEL...

You can really hear the terror in Mikus voice as she’s trapped inside a metal box.
Miku is subjected to the eldritch horror that is the boss metal zone
5:05
Lol. She's definitely in pain.
She... She's virtual, so she's always trapped in a metal box or circuit o.O
No, this was noise genre. Terror is a different genre.
Oh my god. Miku screaming in pain and then speaking in fast tongues was the stuff of nightmares. I love it.
hatsune methhead
5:05
Sounds like a deems trip gone awry
This is the first Miku video that genuinely made me want one.
Me Koo!
This made ME want one--and I do harsh noise!
(seriously, that's gotta be how John Leidecker felt about pitch trackers)
crazy how i can hear Miku say "doushiyo" (or in english "what am i going to do") at min 5 as she contemplates how she can escape a situation where she has no mouth and must scream
Creepy 😅
That's the most horrible reference posible
Well, in this case, she kinda can scream?
I'm stunned, I can't believe someone managed to open a portal to the 10th level of hell with a couple guitar pedals AND I'm shocked to learn that is also where miku lives!
Miku is the queen of ultra-hell!
Now my dream noise rig is a bunch of no input pedals and a mixer. Thanks for the ideas.
That's called an analog synth!!
Really haunting sound with the delay and subtle pitch shifts. I like that a lot.
Very James Holden-ish yes !
GLaDOS vibes
I'm super curious what would happen if you voltage-starved Miku. Usually that makes circuits scream and gurgle. You could probably get Miku to groan and screech like she's the lead vocalist of an avant garde metal band.
It's a digital circuit so you risk damaging it.
You would have to rename it the Yoko at that point.
Yes.
That would be pretty sick.
@@return2sender791 Having heard what people like Utsu-P and Mitchie M can do with vocaloid, I'd be inclined to disagree.
@@dn7949 we mean the hardware itself, without enough voltage there's risk of the PCB inside being damaged
-Plugs metal zone into miku
-miku screams
😂😂😂
that end jam is one of the coolest most original sounding youtube video jams I've ever heard. Awesome.
Thank you!
i want an hour and a half video of you just doing stuff like this
You need a video looper/mixer, a few different channels you can mess with. Then try "no input video mixing"🤪🙃
Simon is now a Vocaloid producer
SimonP
@@garbageplate
Simon MagP
Ah, SimonP, the new emerging producer
ya know
this would be a really crazy way to do a super edgy song similar to mind brand....
Simon-P
This sounds like a chillbeat/citypop inspired doom metal album in the making.
"Miku in a Meat Grinder" requires existence.
i dont know why but the abrupt sceam of the petal [ 6:52 ] just had me laughing like an idiot for a good 10 minutes
Miku ROARS
i cant even XD
She fuckin' barked at him for interrupting her
That chord was brutal. Would love to sample that.
Kinda like a fnaf4 jumpscare
5:00 is the cutest horror movie soundtrack ever, lol
The part where you’ve added mixer was so naughty, good stuff.
Also, another great ending.
7:11 the cutest horror soundtrack continues ❤
I love how that sounds actually
I immediately thought the same thing! That was terrifying. Sounded like she was screaming.
Dude, I couldn't agree more. Especially when the distorted dissonance came in! Its something I'd do, really love how that unfolded.
I want to hear it played back at like 50% speed after being recorded to tape, that would be pure Dark Ambient.
@@dvevotedlove especially the random "Na-mo-" sounds like she is about to chant some Buddhism spell
Whenever I'd start doing this, I could never shake the sensation that I was about to unlock the secrets of the universe by accident. It's so trippy fun.
An Otamatone with nothing pressed will make a Miku stomp howl at random; it’s one of my fave random noisemakers.
Note for clarity: you need the deluxe with the line out to do this out of the box.
Congratulations magpie, at 5:05 you have successfully created the first miku horror track
I gave this a like after seeing how polite Simon was about waiting his turn to speak.
6:53 literally took me out, that is such an aggressive SCREAM
My sound for the last couple years has been Miku into LifePedal. Hoping to add a Microcosm for an incomprehensible three pedal challenge.
Wooow what a wild setup!!
I'm actually working on a musical project for my studies, in electro acoustic style, this is definitely top class material samples you got here, this is an unbelievable way to use pedals that impressed me, the possibilities are again endless
7:14 almost ended up in lavender town for a sec there
Whatever purpose a person has in mind to get a Miku pedal, there is no justification for the price people are asking for it now. Keep in mind the Piapro Miku software pack for the whole Japanese language is $160, not just a minimal set of random Japanese syllables. Your use here was very cool, but not for googolplex dollars*.
*actual eBay price
I thought Thom Yorke was gonna start singing at some point.
Don't forget there is a way to add your own custom phrases. It works as text to speech. This would allow you to have variety of tones/phrases but have a bit more control of the output and not be completely random output. It is mentioned in the manual, I believe it is accessed through an iphone app. I'm not sure if there is any other way.
You proved the point of the no input technique so well! No input feels like it opens a whole other world of signal!!!
It remaind me of people using a modular synth as a guitar pedal; this is people using guitar pedals as modular synths.
Best use of the Miku pedal I've heard so far is in Jack White's Into The Twilight, off one of his recent albums. Great vid as always.
Simon: Technique Suggestion: make a collection of things (pedals and/or mixer and whichever else thing you’d like) to generate the audio (I suggest you add a matrix pedal which changes the feedthrough of L/R channels so you can change the nature of the feedback). Then pass the output through something which controls the gain (to reduce the gain) so you have a “before gain” circuit and “after gain” circuit. Add controlled effects “after gain” and have one output which feeds the controlled “after gain” back into the “before gain” (creating yet another feedback, but without overload) you can choose if you want to amplify the controlled output before adding it back to the “before gain” circuitry. Enjoy!
I’ll save this comment. It’s like a proper manual 😄 thank you!
@@SimonTheMagpie You are welcome. Enjoy! :)
The fun part is that it has a pretty strict copyright license where people cannot make any commercial music with it
Meanwhile Vocaloid itself is perhaps the most chilled copyright stuff provided you bought it all first from Crypton/Yamaha lolol.
@@jesseroberts1041 really depends on the voice. Crypton future media vocaloids are only usable commercially if you don't mention their name and don't use their design (so saying "feat hatsune miku" in an album you sell isn't allowed without a dedicated contract with them, you also can't have miku on the album cover art)
Also in piapro studio NT, miku has a new license and here no commercial use AT ALL is allowed without contract
This is the best series of Simon The Magpie videos ever in the history of Simon The Magpie-ngdom..
Thank you very much 😄 the lore, haha
The look of ecstasy on your face @9:00 was hilarious. Watching someone this genuinely happy is something you don’t see often 👍
no input fart pedal?
Do it! 😄 I wont, hehe. Miku at least is a pedal I will use a ton. I dont buy gear I wont ever use again for the memes, haha. Too poor 😅
@@SimonTheMagpie How about a no input gamechanger pedal like the plasma or light pedal?
That was my immediate thought as soon as Simon said "... super s||Itty pedal ..." - I mean, "Came to s||!t but only farted", right?
you're like a mad scientist who lives in a basement but with music
There were some great industrial sounds in here, but I loved what you were able to do near the end. Incredibly fun !
These were the nicest sounds I have ever heard come out of a Miku
This is about as experimental as it gets, somehow this sounded amazing
7:19 is magic and then when the bass drops it sound so cool!
Been lovin' this training arc. Looking forward to the next phase!
Yeah excited to start just randomly doing it with stuff when producing music! 😄😄
Now that there is Miku, in the mix, why not get a multi channel mixer and add more pedals? It could be, some serious, polyphonic madness.
Please don’t stop with the noise content! 🔥🔥🔥
I love this, it reminds me of many years ago when I was working in a music store and we got snowed in, were incredibly bored and decided to have a contest to see who could make the best crazy synth out of our stock of guitar pedals plugged into themselves.
7:24 this is what I imagine Oompaloompas play when they're not being forced to sing
That Miku pedal is completely ridiculous, but it really seems to work in that setting.
Pro tip: this is a demon from metal miku hell, and needs to have its exorcism filter replaced every 3 months.
"Weirdcore" producers need to get on that pedal. I feel like it fits that aesthetic a lot.
I recorded some noise albums using a metal zone and miku stomp, glad to see the combo getting some love!
That is wild! Best combo 😄😄
Boss Flanger: Adjust the two internal trim pots. I think one on 0 and one on maximum. Then you get a feedback loop synth with a completely controllable note with one knob and a bit of a noise gate type control with another knob. Super musical. I mounted mine on a drum pad screwed onto a cymbal stand so I can stand up looking cool while I use it on stage.
She is great at palm fading.
Actually with that third pedal in there? Suddenly she actually sounds like something potentially otherworldly.
Miku's soul is TRAPPED inside that pedal and she wants OUT
Fantastic vid as always Simon~ :3
This was brilliant! Really liked the jams you created with that unlikely combo. Bubbling Mikuzone!
4:40 shit, i didn't know i came here to watch miku cover pink Floyd's echoes
At 5:00 starts the sounds of nightmares, 7:13 is right up there with lavender town theme 😂😂
Man that jam at the end, so trippy, industrial but chill. I was definitely not expecting such musicality going in!
By the way, I learned this from Hainbach, you can send aux outputs from the mixer into pedals and back into the mixer (a pretty normal send-receive setup) then send the pedal return channel back into the aux, creating a loop. That way you can do yes-input loops, and your mixer becomes a console for feedback experiments. Choruses become flangers and reverbs become screeching horrors.
OH YES ❤. Your pedals are perfect for this kind of stuff.
omg i was just thinking about this
Sounds fk great 😂
I was a big Miku fan in my teens and now im a big fan of Buckethead, who also does a lot of glitchy and dissonant stuff. (Also RLY love primus)
This scatched an itch i didn't know i had 🤣
I _need_ someone to make an album out of this
I'd love to hear this combo into a Boss SL-2 Slicer!
この発想はなかった!
どんな音でも初音ミクの声に変換するミクエフェクターだからこそ出来ることですね!
打ち込みとはまた違うミクの調教方法が開拓出来そうですね!
惜しむらくは、このエフェクターが生産完了品で、プレミアがついていること…
"Aaand, the language of love."
Awkward wink right back at yah pal.
Bro you have found your niche this is phenomenal
I think a lot of people have tried that but if you haven't, the metal zone is fun and good when inserted in the FX loop of the amp (it does not sound like grilled cheese that way).
I love that we’re going down the rabbit hole with you since the first video with the mixer
I'm so glad happy excited these new videos you've been putting out about total experimentation everything else be damned huh? And I'm only halfway through this one and I'm loving it so far. I was really hoping you were going to say the Miku is the coolest pedal ever and then you said it and it really probably is the coolest better pedal ever again I'm super stoked on the new video-ish directionalish path you seem to be going down I've always loved your videos still do Loving me more keep rocking in the free world
Now this... THIS... is ART.
We asked if we could when we should've asked if we should. We've gone too far.
At 5:05 the automatic captions literally detect Miku saying, "Oh my god."
Lol 😄😄😄 I gotta printscreen that
That is the most cursed Miku I've ever heard. I love it
I’ve been looking for your channel! Watched a good number of your videos five years or so ago. Glad to have stumbled upon your musical wizardry!
Thats wild 😆 glad you found your way back!!
This is indeed the dumbest pedal idea ever.
Next test:
"How many points can I get on my inflatable dartboard??"
This is fantastic. I actually have the standalone synth version of Miku, the Gakken NSX-39; it's basically a Stylophone with the same Miku-in-a-chip as the pedal.
(Gakken is a Japanese company that's sort of half science magazine, half STEM treat box; they make various electronics kits and suchlike. If youve seen Teenage Engineering's recent vinyl record cutter, it originally a Gakken machine.)
Same! Did a video on it a couple years back 😄
Gakken makes absolutely everything when it comes to educational stuff. Manga, dictionaries, equipment, online lessons, building blocks…you name it, Gakken makes it.
@@tokumei99 that's cool to know! I'd only encountered their Otonanokagaku publications - I've also got their SX-150 synth - so I figured that was their main line. (I suppose a lot of companies are more diverse than the context in which you first meet them.)
You ever stumble on a video from a channel you've never seen before and realized there's an entire world that you've missed your whole life?
6:25 Miku had enough, she wanted to get out of the metal box
Miku's blood curdling screams will be in my nightmares tonight.
I had to special-order my Miku stomp as it was only available in Japan, lol. What a hilarious effect, it's one of my faves. I HAD to subscribe to this.
I do not know why RUclips recommended me this video of a man inventing a speaking in tongues machine, but I am grateful for it.
It sounds like she’s saying “stop me” and “stop” as if she has no control in what’s happening to her and she’s begging you to stop herself from this looping hell
This reminds me a lot of the improv noise album I made with a coupla friends. One was chittering and screeching into a mic and holding it to the speaker, and the other was twiddling a mixer. I had my electric guitar and a loop pedal plugged into the mixer to create big walls of loops.
You are about to enter another dimension. A dimension not only of sight and sound, but of mind. A journey into a wondrous land of imagination. Next stop, the Miku Zone.
I've been out of the guitar world for a year. When did the metal zone move from meme status to 'it's good'?
When it met Miku
This has to be a new music genre: "Miku-synth"
5:46 that sounded like something you'd hear at the beginning of an "Incubus" song.
I feel like I'm in a...futuristic post apocalypse graveyard of androids
That is flat out haunted. I would call an old priest and a young priest.
you actually created so many awesome scary intros for metal songs
I think my headphones are haunted now.
this feels like something out of an obscure RPG Maker horror game
Isn't a keyboard just a big collection of different value resistors? Wouldn't you then in theory be able to exchange the variable resistor(s) you use to control the pitch of the feedbacked metalzone with a keyboard?
This is a very silly idea but it would be very funny if it worked.
at that point youve just made a synthesizer
@@sengroagers1111 that's precisely why it's such a silly idea haha
Congratulations you turned Miku into Yoko Ono
Immediatley it starts screaming. Yes; this is exactly what I expected.
This is perfect for a cyberpunk horror movie soundtrack. Genuinely scary stuff.
It sounds like Miku says "Stop it, stop it now" before screaming again
real haunting content thank you magpie 👍
Didnt know Miku could summon demons.
This would be perfect to use in a sci-fi anime.
Miku + Bubbles is some Aphex Twin stuff.
*Miku's screams of horror*
*Clicks off*
"That's actualy really cool"
4:39 “stop it, stop it… OHHHHH”
miku took a vacation to guantanamo bay and these are the recovered audio files
