Wonderful job sir, thanks for explaining to me what my gear does and how to get the most out of it. But mostly thanks for the amazing explanation/demonstration of functions.
Hello mr synt ,I am so happy whit. Your channel,I am new in this hobby and you are the only channel who it makes for me understaningble ,u know why?becous one simple thing,u stay whit your cam vieuw on the board ,this is so much better as people how only ther own face find important!!and saying how good the product is wat they review!!but in reality it’s poop!!!but they get them for free!!!i am happy whit this channel!!!greetings from holland stay safe!!!!😁
ackamack101 Cool! Well, to me, not being a musician or even trained in playing a keyboard, I use it mainly to experiment with, and I often come back to this video to repeat and learn again. I just like to fiddle around and create different sounds and try things out, and to me that’s great fun and relaxation. I find it powerful as to what it can do in such a compact and handy design. So basically, it’s been ALL fun so far. I can’t imagine what you could create with such a little thing if you actually have a little bit more experience (than me) and skills playing the keys more musically. But I’m learning! I’m sure you’ll love yours. 👍🏼
Anders1236 I agree with what you said. I just got mine today and have been going through the first few videos. I don’t know what I would have done without them! I have always wanted to learn analog synthesizer and I think this little guy is a great place to start. It sure can do a lot for being so small! Likewise I got this to play around with and see what kind of cool sounds I can make. It is a lot of fun!
I just got my Monologue yesterday and it's my first ever analog synthesizer! Thanks for making this video because I think it will be really helpful for me in the coming days and weeks! :D :D :D
A couple of years ago, I bought this as my first ever analog synthesizer as well. I've since sold it and owned a lot of other (more expensive) synths, both digital and analog, but I've started to come full circle and crave for the Monologue again. It's such a cool synth!
Thank you. This is my 1st synth ( I think I'm in love) and my fist day getting familiar with it. I didn't even know how to get a sound out of it until I saw this video. Have a sane(?) New Year,🙏
Picked up one of these on ebay recently. It's in perfect physical condition, but I'm having some problems getting sound out of it when playing live keys. I hope there's nothing wrong with the internals, and I'm just missing some setting or don't have it in the right mode or something like that. The first thing I did when I got it was factory reset it. The preset sequences sound fine. The knobs and dials works as they should in effecting the audio. But, when playing the keys as if performing live, I get no sound. I follow your video here (applicable section is :40 - :55), but mine doesn't seem to act the same way yours does. I press the EDIT MODE button, then press the sequencer button that is the one second from the right that's flashing which brings up the 'Init Program Execute..?' display, then turn the PROGRAM VALUE knob one detent to the right so it says 'Press WRITE', then I press the WRITE button. The little LCD screen says INITIALIZED for about one second. So far, this is exactly as in your video. But it is here where mine deviates. In your video, your LCD screen goes to a flat line, and you say that the default shape is a triangle wave, and you press a key, and we hear the sound and the LCD screen shows that triangle wave sound. My LCD screen doesn't go to a flat line. It goes back one step to the 'Init Program Execute..?' display. The EDIT MODE button is still lit red, those five sequencer step buttons are lit (steps 5 through 9), step 11 is flashing and step 12 is solid red. So essentially, when you hit WRITE in this process, the synth goes into an active mode where you play notes and those notes sound. On mine, when I hit WRITE, it just goes back a step and I can't find any way to get it into that active mode. Any suggestions?
Hi there...i Wish to know if its possible to link this synth directly in a pedalboard chain....?i would use It to create loop landscapes and overdub Guitar ....thanks
This is the best Monologue instructional I've seen. Well done!
Agree!!!
Finally I founded the video I was searching for. Thank you sir!
I bought a Monologue over 2 years ago and had no clue what I was doing. Thanks to your video, I now know a few things! 🤘

yes thx, I was also looking for this vid! thanks sir!
great video. really appreciate the basic breakdown of it's functions
Superb and very helpful tutorial. Cheers!
I just picked up a monologue and found these videos super helpful. Love it.
This video was probably one of the best tutorials ever. Awesome video. Thank you.

Now THIS was a decent intro, thanks for posting!

I just got my Monolgue in the mail today. This was great! Thank you!
Anders1236 How have you been enjoying it? Mine is on its way to me, and I can’t wait to jump in with it!

Nice video. Would love to see something showing how to incorporate Volcas with this

Great video! I'll be watching this while setting up my own sound! Thanks!
Such a great video concise and to the point well constructed and well executed thank you so much
Excellent. Thanks.

Im getting one soon but dont have a pc, do i NEED a pc to use this? Or do i just need headphones and batteries and this bad boy works ? TIA
@@userskalla nah you don't need a PC, and it's battery powered. I take this jawn to work with my headphones and play with it on my breaks
Excellent excellent excellent video the best explained video of the monologue by far. Thank you
Excellent overview!

And it can play on Batteries!🎉
Excellent review! Thanks!

Awesome video! Thank you!
Great video thanks!
Really helpful-! Aural Sculpture! Are you a Stranglers fan?

Now let's have the same for the Monologue XD.
Hi there...i Wish to know if its possible to link this synth directly in a pedalboard chain....?i would use It to create loop landscapes and overdub Guitar ....thanks
I know there’s gotta be something I’m doing wrong, but I can’t hear anything even after doing your steps, suggestions?
I have the very same issue
Vojta Roček I found out, it requires external speakers, or headphones with the right jack, luckily I have and adapter
@@andrewbraun7434 i cant hear anything through my headphones with the adapter
nicholas clark idk man, I just happened to find one laying around and it worked
@@andrewbraun7434 i just had to re plug it in, im good now 😂😂
What about getting a sine wave?
No sinewave avail. It's 3 voice, but quite versatile for the price.
What computer?
great intro to the synth. the manual is a little....lacking.
I don't believe it has CV connections.
I agree but the more I look ,,,
It’s dated .. no ,, it’s perfect for putting with beat machines of any type a in built speaker just means it would of been perfect.shame
