Imagine secretly sneaking this music into a game as a soundtrack, and then someone finding the oscilloscope patterns by complete accident after a year or so.
Even better, the guy's listening to this very song WHILE accidentally finding the patterns, making it infinitely more epic
With the right software, a game dev can add music which looks like that in an oscilloscope. You know, as an easter egg. Haven't found one yet, but it's interesting to see how it plays out.
Imagine a game where the music is secretly the same thing that's on the screen.
This is literally what I want to do with one of the games I have on the back burner!
Funny
I like me some green and black content to stimulate my brain.
god I love how c i r c l e sounds. amazing
(Not to be confused with Circles, by Jerobeam Fenderson.)
(and Fenderson's Circles got helluva kick too!)
IIRC it is sine wave
I needed this. Was having a crummy night and this made things a whole lot better.
Well, I wish you luck. Most of us have been having a bad year (I hate 2020), so this is one of the highlights of the year!
@@FooFoo4230 yea ....
be safe
Hope you're doing better now! If you need someone to talk to I'm here for you ^^
Me too! 2020 has been a serious bummer, needed some upbeat chiptune in my life, so here we all go!
It's like BGM, the main menu of a space exploration game.
It's even better when you know what rasterized and vectors mean.
many layers. like an onion.
Chris Allen is back, with and it blew up my oscilloscope 👀
boom
concept: a sample pack of oneshots (and maybe even some loops) that look cool in an oscilloscope. like even if the images wouldn't properly show up in my music, i feel like it would be absolutely rad just because this kind of stuff always has an oddly distinct sound and i bet it could add some great flavor if used correctly
furthermore, a soundfont would be great so one can use traditional music notation apps
Off-topic but your logo looks like someone applied "invert colours" to it
(and honestly i'd just like running them through an oscilloscope and going "heehee picture")
@@thatotherandrew_ is it the purple that gives it the look? bc i spent like 15 minutes picking the perfect purple lmao
@@darksentinel082 Don't get me wrong, it looks really nice, I just can't stop thinking about how it looks "inverted". Also, aren't you the person who participated in the Elybeatmaker RMRs?
this is absolutely impressive, the 3d models are sharp when they need to be and then music is still great on its own, along with those mini circles that just look so cool and the absolute spectacle at 3:17, i used to think factory floor was the best mix between music and visuals, but this one may be the new king
At your timestamp tho, there's the signature buzz of oscilloscope music. Not to say the buzz wasn't handled well, but it would be nice to not have to have a buzz when showing a complex 3d model like that.
I get what you're saying and all, but they arnt even models, they're literally sound waves were seeing. We're seeing what were hearing. The buzz is the thing we're seeing, if you want the buzz to not be there you gotta remove the whole part.
@@Train115 How do you think these videos are made? The 3D scenes are created and rendered in Blender, and then converted to the sound waves by a plugin made specifically for that purpose. Thus, there _are_ 3D models to be seen here.
@@PhoenixClank they *were* 3D models before they were turned into sound waves with the plugin.
@@nolanwestrich2602 Osci-music buzz is indeed a tricky beast to tame. Sharp, detailed 3D models have sharp edges, are discontinuous, and inherently buzzy. I'm continually working on techniques to tame the buzzy beast, and for now I press the buzz into service as electro bass or lead sound.
One promising technique I'm exploring can be seen around 2:00 with the bulbous wire object. Nice details in that one, but far less buzzy because the mesh is actually one continuous trace of the underlying object. Another recent track, Artifact, (ruclips.net/video/4puQuhJ-JUA/видео.html) uses this technique extensively. The other approach is to reduce mesh details to silhouettes, hints of shape, or other simpler visuals to reduce the noise.
Much work still to be done in the research labs!
its fun to see the evolution of this, its gotten to the point where it doesent need the visuals to sound good
I can imagine this track being ripped and put into some kid's math racing game
not that it's bad it just sounds awesome and full of action
Gonna be perfectly honest, this is probably your best work. It's one of those gems that isn't too loud like Downforce, has a great melody to it, and doesn't need an oscilloscope in order to feel or sound good.
Thanks, appreciate the kind words!
@@ChrisAllenMusic I love this song in particular. It's such a happy sounding song. I hope you feel as happy making these as I do listening it them.
Oscilloscope music is like the Holophonor from Futurama. Some day, musicians will have to create the 3D imagery and the music in real time lol
I feel like you mastered this craft already. Absolutely stunning!
Thank you! Not mastered yet, but improving for sure...
I found out about oscilloscope music from SmarterEveryDay, now I can't get enough!
RUclips, where did my notifications go, explain yourself.
Either way, another epic song for the collection! This style of music is somewhat wierd, but fairly interesting at the same time
Yeah boii! I'm jammin' to this music
This is one of best things I've ever seen
Aw yeah this rules
Bloody beautiful work
You can see the sounds you hear.
The circles sound like sinewaves, the triangles sound like a triangle pattern, a square sounds like a combination of a triangle and pulse, and the random clouds sound like a noise pattern. The moon kinda makes up a circular (sinewave / rounded) pattern.
I've figured the whole thing out!
It gets better and better. I want the oscilloscope only to listen this and blow minds of everyone who will see that.
20k views in 2 years?????
I don't think many people are appreciating this as much as they should.
Wow, music gets always better, but the graphics are so detailed. Youre getting much better with time! Love youre work
Thank you !
"uploaded 2 mins ago" wow im early youtube recommended knows™
Submit to the algorithm
Science teacher: ok students today we are going to be using oscilloscopes
Girls: what the hell is that it sounds hella lame
Boys:
I've actually been thinking about doing a lesson on sound and digital sound reproduction. Starting off with a drum and showing that vibrations cause sound then getting a mico:bit to play a note through a speaker then through an oscilloscope. Then a microphone hooked up to an oscilloscope then normal music and a then finally showing some of this oscilloscope music.
@@2Death9 make it so!
@@2Death9 we will he watching your career with great interest
@@2Death9 YES
please don't make this joke, it's really old and also pretty rude
Gives me Spacey and Videogame vibes at the same time, impresive work as always!
Glad you enjoy it!
This artform is almost always impressive because of the intersection between visual and audio coherence... but sometimes the music will stand on it's own, and that's truly impressive
Thx for noticing!
Still cannot get over how GREAT these visuals look, alongside the sound of this oh my god
oh my god! dude !! i didnt know people were still making these!! awesome job bro! this is absolutely impresive, i really like what you did with the animations and sound movement to create melodies! (0:23 and 3:16)
So cool!
In the description, when you say for the vector game that never was, do you mean there was at one point a game that rendered it's audio and video like this in the works? or is the description just meant to be mysterious...
I think a game that rendered both its audio and video linked together like this would be sick honestly.
Edit: nvm someone said based on moon patrol for arcade/atari. Looks like it is.
Yes, Moon Patrol was the inspiration. Original game was raster graphics (color bitmaps) and I'm imagining an alternate universe where they made it in monochrome vector graphics.
@@ChrisAllenMusic Awesome! by the way, how long does it take oscistudio to generate the audio output. like as a ratio to the playtime i guess. say you wanted to render the audio from a 5 second blender animation, how long would it take for your computer to render it?
@@BraveWW Oscistudio is live. Records at 96k samples, whatever frequency you want, immediately.
Time consuming process is setting up and optimizing 3D models, & animations, and composing the raw oscistudio audio into finished songs.
@@ChrisAllenMusic oh, thats interesting to hear. I guess since it can be rendered live, someone could actually make a game where the graphics are rendered as audio played on the axes. Maybe could be a game done as a plug-in to oscistudio or something? I might be talking out my ass here, was just thinking about it. It could be a really cool rhythm game or something.
I should really get around to messing with oscistudio. I was waiting till Fenderson's intersect album released to buy it, but im just being lazy. (And that album has been in work for a WHILE)
Wow, this is definitely my favorite song of yours!
Mine’s Heavier Than Air, mainly for the wave shape, and it sounds pretty good too. But I can really see the improvement in each one. So, if I didn’t feel like it was inconsistent to have each new song be my favorite, it totally would be.
This is probably the best one you've made yet. If this isn't the peak of your career, then we're in for a TREAT. The visuals are amazing, and the music doesn't suffer the smallest iota for it.
That’s totally amazing, I would love to see a making of
Now this is what you call n i c e
Someone needs to put your music into a film or tv series one day.
Thank friend for bring back my memories from my old atari 2600 i played the game a lot when i was a child in the 80s.
Definitely some of your best work yet! Even better than factory floor!
Good music, impressive visuals and a f***ing cameo of walking stick dude! You're awesome
stick man abides
Hell yeah. Finally!
Ok this one is actually really cool. Nice work.
Another great track! i particularly liked 0:22 to 0:40. Keep up the amazing work!
this is awesome
This is so awesome in so many ways, my favorite so far
I really liked your "downforce" Oscilloscope video, but this has to be my new absolute favorite. Soooo so good.
Seeing the complete overhaul in quality from Globetrotter to this blows my fucking mind. Amazing work.
Thanks!
Man! I almost forgot about your great oscilloscope music, great work dude.
My mom had an Atari 2600 growing up and gave it to me, i spent so many hours on moon patrol. Your scope music is incredible!
Thank you! I spent way too many quarters on the original!
it amazes me that this is even possible to do with sound
ive got the mycelium growing. cant wait to see this.
I love your music! It is just right balance between visual und music.
I love this art so much. Both visually and auditory
I will never cease to be amazed by your work, every single one is a work of art, keep it up!
That’s another one to add to my 3 GB collection of your music.
Wow, a bunch of my favorite youtubers are uploading. Incredible music video. You’ve really stepped up the visuals.
This is so impressive.
I love how 3D modes are "rendered" in wave forms, nice work!
Glad you like them!
another day another banger
Ok, now this is Art
Damn, you really never miss
Art.
I like the new nice shade of green
This one is so awesome, great job
imagine a dance floor with screens as the dance area, playing this as the floor lit up with the patterns
Your videos never get old to me they get better every time but one of my old favorites is Easter island but I can listen to all of them over and over and not get bored thank you for the things you're doing so some of us have entertainment and great music in times like this.
Glad you like them!
This is really clean. Well done!
My god this is amazing
Oh! 3D oscillosccope music. One scope for each eye! Need a VR headset, but that would be TRIPPY.
Holy shit! This is amazing!
i like how you can make a synth through a cluster of circles.
This is incredible!
The greatest precision art I've ever seen!
A masterpiece as always Chris. Great work.
I can't believe I've missed an upload! I love this!
Welcome back!
SMOOTH
YES!
This is a masterpiece!!!!!
My reactions to this: Ooh, pretty! Wow, look at that! That sounds nice!
Do you have plans to make those things at 3:17 into puzzles? I’d be interested in buying some Chris Allen merchandise!
(I’m just joking, but those things do look fun, and if you ever make any merchandise, I’d buy it.)
Merch!
LETSSS GOOOOO i love your music man keep going!
This sounds like that type of game where it’s just running non stop and you have to dodge the obstacles and kill the enemies while your running to the core of the nuclear base in order to stop dr acalene
Another amazing video. Thanks for donating your time to the betterment of humanity.
thank for watching!
this stuff is out of this world! haha get it?
Dad jokes always appreciated!
Maaaan this is awesome!
I don't even get how you're able to make this, it's so cool
as beautiful as ever
awesome composition , and art , its amazing , its incredible
Holy shit i need this playing during the launch of Artemis 3
For context; that's the next mission to land on the moon
@@professionalsocialoutcast5926 I agree completely. Please have NASA's people call my people, and we'll set something up!
Chris allen merch please ❤❤❤
Fantastic
POV
Music is video itself. Amazing work!
This makes me wanna get out of bed and play some moon patrol rn
This belongs in a museum
Probably best song of yours yet
Never clicked on a video so fast
You keep getting better, nothing you ever made sucked. How are you that good?
I don't share the crappy stuff...
I couldn't help singing The Bad Touch, the whole way through this song. lol
I think it's fair to say your visuals have far surpassed Jerobeam's at this point. Well done.
Next level! Nice! Blows my mind that you can pull this off. Strong work.
Мне настолько понравился жанр музыки и ваше творчество, что я купил осциллографную трубку (5ЛО38И), так-как на большой полноценный аналоговый осциллограф денег не хватает (Мне 16 лет, живу в Украине). Купил трансформатор, специальные транзисторы, которые использовались в старых советских осциллографах, благо, в СССР делали много около военной электроники, что и на наш современный рынок хватает ещё в избытке.
И собрал я (по своей схеме, частично набратой из схем с интернета, увлекаюсь электроникой с 14-и, сейчас, правда, чуть в программирование ушёл) ... и собрал векторный монитор, или осциллограф в режиме XY. И у меня, наконец-то, удалось нарисовать вашу музыку на физическом стенде с электронной лучевой трубкой. Задание выполнено :)
Спасибо, что поделились со мной этой замечательной историей! Звучит весело!
Damn nice one Chris! Its really sharp clean refined and has a very nice sound track.
I've said it once and I'll say it again, i find your remixes more pleasant to both the ears and eyes compared to other remixes. You make such incredible scenes whilst making them sound good at the same time.
