    TBH I spend more time just goofing around tweaking knobs, sliders and switches than actually putting something together. I find it more relaxing just to have those exploratory times than watching a flashing red record button and feeling like I need to stay between the lines.

      You'll definitely get used to it if you want to! At first I would get sweaty hands every single time I pressed the dreaded REC button. Needless to say, the timing was awful, I couldn't remember my three-note theme and so on. But it really goes away, and then it gets you excited, the very process of committing your thoughts and ideas to a waveform, and then you start layering your sounds and it can really feel great.

    It's the one synth I'll never get rid of. I've had it for four years now. I still mess around with it a few times a week. It is so easy to make killer sounds on it.
    I sometimes like to just randomly turn knobs, then press shift+play to see what weird sound comes out. If I like what I hear, I can trace back how I got there because all the knobs are showing the actual values.

    Cool video. It sounds great with that reverb. It's an underrated synth in my opinion. It's certainly well worth the money if you like the raw sound of it. One of my favourite things is being able to assign the slider to modulate different aspects of the synth. It makes it so good for acid madness.

  • @inperfectsequence7840
    @inperfectsequence7840 11 месяцев назад +3

    The monologue can't make those sounds on its own without a super reverb.
    I use a microbrute with the logic pro reverb space designer and that is why I can make even more complex sounds than these.
    In this video we see a synthesizer as a sound source and a reverb as a result of that sound, with any synthesizer you can make these atmospheres.
    So in the phrase: "should have bought one a long time ago¨, it's a false promise, it really doesn't have that reverb and you won't be able to make those sounds without using a pedal or a computer.

    • @Tequilasaur
      @Tequilasaur 10 месяцев назад +1

      I disagree. Microbrute's has one VCO and no noise generator, it can't sound so lush like Monologue, and reverb doesn't help it here. At the same time, I think Microbrute is better for generating bass sounds with it's modulation matrix and complex VCO.

    • @inperfectsequence7840
      @inperfectsequence7840 10 месяцев назад

      @@Tequilasaur I respect your opinion, but I do not share it.
      The Microbrute analog FM is called “Metalizer” and it is in the shape of a triangular wave, it already generates noises of all colors and the LFO in free mode is also ultra fast, I suspect that is why they did not put a noise generator and all modes you can put an analog radio for white fluid in the external audio input to the filter, with volume gain in its jack input, to achieve analog distortions for drumloops sounding from the analog filter.
      Minilogue is better with its keys, it is a digitally controlled analogue, Microbrute has no presets, it is thicker and has more volume than the Minilogue.
      Reverb is fine for making more modern sounds, but it completely kills the analog machine sound and tends to distort.
      I had it and sold it because that little dynamic range in the digital reverb for the basses and kicks bothered me. I was very discouraged by that cheap reverb, I thought it would be cooler, but no, Korg once again puts bad things in its cheap things.
      Otherwise minilogue is a very good synthesizer, it can overshadow moog subphatty (subsequent25) or novation bass station synthesizers.

    • @kidzorro
      @kidzorro 8 месяцев назад

      This is true! Though I like the Monologue, I would never use it by itself. These videos with effects slapped on are great, but let's be honest; it is the reverb that is doing the work. This goes for most synths, especially the ones that do not have onboard effects.
