4 years ago from my today (4/2024)... and it's the best explanation of how the 0-coast works. I wish I saw this 4 years ago, when I purchased the synth. It sat on a self for a couple of years... patiently waiting for me to come back and make some noise. Thanks.
Best 0 coast video by far on the web! because you explain what the patches are doing and that’s the whole concept we don’t know what they are doing so thanks for sharing
I have a M32 and a DFAM and was looking to compliment them with this lil guy but the architecture was a bit daunting and difficult to understand (there's a lot to learn, I'm still learning about the ones I have even), but you explained the 0-Coast perfectly and when I buy one I'm going to name it Michael lol. Thank you so much!!
Sick video, I was in a rut about what to do for a set on the weekend and borrowed a 0 Coast and this was the first video I watched and immediately nailed using it!
THANK YOU for putting this out in the world, and for playing around with the synth by itself. Lot of depth to it, thanks for taking us down through it.
Came across the O Coast recently and it intrigued me. If I hadn't just bought a Korg Monologue I'd have jumped at this. Great explanations of CV/trigger/gates which have always mystified me. I'll be adding this to my GAS shoping list.
This is such an incredibly swift and simple intro to the 0-Coast. And that patch around 11:45 is awesome! Well done. Please consider doing some tuts for individual modules/synths because it would help so many newbies get up to speed faster.
You've got a pretty unique way of explaining this subject in a way that is very clear and easy to retain. I haven't looked for any more of your videos yet but I'm hoping there is more of this from you. Thank you for posting this, I'm going to share it with some of my friends as you've covered so much.
Thanks Stephen, I’m glad you found it useful. I do have other explainer videos about modules on the channel but I’m soon to start a new series on a different channel I’ll post video about that when it happens.
@@Jin-Hu hello yeah I’ve started making videos for Signal Sounds which is a shop in the UK: ruclips.net/video/8K85MpJp6yE/видео.htmlsi=jSPKWmIXMAeC73PK / I’ve also been posting more stuff like this here on this channel
This feels less like a RUclips video and more like im just over at me mate’s gaff and he’s telling me about his 0coast. And I mean that in the best way possible. Great primer, weirdly very few good tutorials for this machine kicking about.
you explain this so well. Could you be the first to do a decent dive into this machine paired with the dfam??? I think that video i missing from the youtube. Pleeze
This is awesome, and the most helpful thing I've watched so far. Quick question though, what are the second knobs in both the Overtone and Multiply sections?
Thank you that's great to hear, those knobs will attenuate or invert whatever voltage you send into those related inputs. So if you send in an lfo that wobbles from -5v to +5v you can attenuate that range to make it more subtle so it becomes something like -1v to +1v. Or something like that. I think of them as volume controls for voltage signals
0 Coast is excellent for lead sounds, bass sounds, plucky sounds and drones. I think it’s limited with what you can do with it on its own unless you multitrack it with a DAW. Theres a lovely project out there by Steve Blum where he wrote 30 tracks using only 0 Coast and a DAW. This is a great example of the 0 Coast. soundcloud.com/itssteveblum/sets/song-a-day-january-2017
Great video mate Ty . I am very new to this , whats the best place to kinda learn the basics in ur opinion ? and is this 0-coast suitable to have as a first synthesizer for someone who pretty much knows nothing but willing to learn ?
I think the 0 Coast is a suitable instrument to have as a first synthesizer, it has a bit of a learning curve but I cover a lot of the basics in this video, what might be tricky is that they use different circuits than most regular synths, so instead of an 'envelope' they use a 'contour' they're both essentially the same thing except that the circuits in the 0 Coast can be used in a variety of ways. Mylar Melodies has some really great videos teaching some of the concepts of this stuff and Looppop also does good ones thought it's quite hard sifting through all their videos to find the appropriate ones
@@SoundsMick Thank you very much for ur recommendations!! I will check those channels for sure . I have been also seeing the mother 32 as a synth thats being recommended allot for absolute beginners , so Idk maybe more research on my side i guess .

Same here...except it was 3 years untouched...
@@mikefarley8563 2017 ... so 7 years. Tbh the manual is not good in explaining how to start using this device.
I got my 0-coast and 0-ctrl last thursday. Less than a week ago. And I already loves it!!
So good! Going through this on my 0-coast and already I feel like we're mates. Nice one :)
Super cool glad you got something out of it!
I am a n00b. I really appreciate the time you spent going through the main functions of this unit as I have just acquired it. Thank you!
Great video! Thanks!

Got my 0-Coast for about a year but this really helped to dive in and start patching creatively. Thanks!
Awesome glad this has been useful!

I’ve had my 0 coast for a year now and this is by far the most clear video I’ve seen explaining it, thank you!!
Awesome glad you liked it :)
great video
excellent tutorial vid!!
very illuminating.
very generous.
many thanks.
i think this is the best video on youtube for understanding modular let alone just the 0 coast, Thanks alot
Thank you that's kind of you to say, glad you got something out of it :)
Nice dig. Currently crammin' on da tube. Thanx for speaking beyond nube
You are a good friend 🤙🏽

Thanks Brandon :) there's a lot of folks doing tutorials for individual modules etc, Div Kid is excellent at it ruclips.net/user/DivKidVideo
Your mate is lucky to have you
I, NEED, IT ! Thanks for the video, i'll be back when I got it.
very nice done, thx a lot !

This is GOOD
Really excellent video, thanks - I learned a lot (and have a 0 Coast arriving this week :) )
oh cool! Thanks :)
Great video. How is the 0-Coast for making rich lead sounds? Would you recommend this over getting started with modular?
