'see those whacked out waveforms, those arnt your daddy's waveforms' - 11/10, actual lol. great video, FM synthesis is the devils ointment, thanks for demystifying it a little.
Thank you all! John your WERKS video is wonderful as are the lingering pictures in my mind of your beautiful system with panels in back with arrow banana jack layouts & your elegant logos, well done! Yes I hung out in Mabuhay Gardens watching partying w' Devo in San Francisco before their first record deal... a 45 rpm of, "Are We Not Men" which of course went viral and the rest is history. I must have listened to that single on my turntable (400) times easy! Exciting times!
8:00 min. Nice example. On a normal oscillator, the audio goes silent when the frequency goes to 0 Hz . So it’s like the carrier wave is being Amplitude modulated by a square wave that has values zero and one. But if you do this, you still don’t get through zero modulation. The oscillator has to actually reverse smoothly with no glitch from positive to negative when it goes through zero. Otherwise you just get regular FM that got amplitude modulated. So it’s very important that that square wave amplitude modulation glitch is not there on each phase reversal Through zero. The actual through zero oscillator circuit with the reversing Schmitt trigger is a really neat idea.
Depends on what you're after; and I loved some of the none-through-zero sounds. But, for making a melodic lead and actually play something I'd go with through-zero.
Very nice demo! I've had a MOTM Zeroscillator for quite a while now (purchased used) but haven't yet taken the time to "figure it out", but when I do I will make a demo video also. I enjoyed your humorous style here and I was reminded of Drew Toothpaste for some reason. I was waiting for you to say something like "Let your modulation pass through zero 5 times . . . 5 times makes it clean." ;-)
"Those aren't your daddy's waveforms from the Heathkit!" Excellent video- I thought I was pretty good at Zeroscillating but I didn't quite understand the the function of the DC vs AC input until this video. Thanks so much for making this! I'd love to see more demos of time reversal and the sonic possibilities as you see them.
I love watching your videos and listening you explain this stuff! You make it so clear Love your explaination of Chowning FM and Mandelbrot Fractals - (they both occured at about the same time - 1973 - according to what I found online) of the two variables causing hugh variations in the graphical / sonic universe!
Pretty damned funny presentation, ha ha! I have a Zero in Eurorack format, it is one seriously cool module. Great sounding, and many, many possibilities for mayhem. Wish I could afford one of the Wiard format duos.
I have a long demo that gets a bit musical at the end (after 14:20 to the end), but I was only scratching the surface of possibilities. ruclips.net/video/kAlMt42g8U8/видео.html
well that was one of the most annoying infomercials i've ever watched. Edit - what a surprise that hard sell comes from a bankrupt former pornographer who never filled module orders lmfao
+monzon marcelo ...not to mention you worded that "irrelevant" question in the most insensetive way possible. Your narrow-minded inquiry shouldn't even be entertained, but regardless I'll try to put things in perspective: you can see that her name's "Cynthia", right? Ok, there's your answer...
Those aren't your daddy's waveforms
Whenever I feel really down, I watch this video to keep living.
Awesome! Thanks for flipping the thru 0 switch so many times, it was very helpful to be able to hear all the differences!
Thank you Cynthia. You're a great teacher !!!
Wow. Thats what Ive needed all these years! A thru-friggin-zero-oscillator! Awesome

great video, FM synthesis is the devils ointment, thanks for demystifying it a little.
You've convinced me, I was thinking of getting one it's why I watched the vid,. Cool, your a good communicator and thanks it's exactly what I want.

Such a fun video. Zeroscillator is excellent. I also just got the new Schippmann Omega-Phi. Haven't figured it out yet, but enjoying playing with it.
Very interesting! And very well presented..like to listen to your teaching..
Awesome explanation.
Thank you for taking the time to do it.
Cheers.
@cynthiawebster1 Thank you for your very kind words! :-) And I love Devo, wish I would have been there at the beginning!
Thank you so much for this explanation :)
Ha. You're a natural at this. "Oh, dear."
Awesome, Thanks Cynthia. Best tutorial I have seen, nicely done.
i like both the ways... lovely stuff. and sicuramente: Grande Cynthia!

we want a zerocillator.... don't we?!
oh golly gosh we like thru zero!
LOVE CYNTHIA!
or should it be spelled Synthia?
one of the better commercials =)
Are those MOTM format modules? Can see they are 5U but don't want to assume.
I love watching your videos and listening you explain this stuff! You make it so clear Love your explaination of Chowning FM and Mandelbrot Fractals - (they both occured at about the same time - 1973 - according to what I found online) of the two variables causing hugh variations in the graphical / sonic universe!
Has it shipped yet?
I love her enthusiasm
you ment HIS enthusiasm, right?
no
Wonderfull demo. i'm buying this (when i get a modular ;-) ).
I hear the yow!
Love it Cynthia, I bet you use to watch Devo - The Men Who Made The Music :-)
I could see General Boy doing this for you :-)
Wonderfully done! I'd love to see more ZO videos with the reversal jack and the like.
Every “not thru zero” sound I actually like better than the Thru Zero.
Moar character.
It is good to have choices.
Excellent demonstration :)
Pretty much every oscillator has a dedicated hi pass filter in order for the wave to oscillate arround 0V don t they ?
one of the more convincing advertisements.
Fascinating!
.thanks s lot .for the moment i got a moog ring modulator .can you make an affordable stomp box.?
Pretty damned funny presentation, ha ha! I have a Zero in Eurorack format, it is one seriously cool module. Great sounding, and many, many possibilities for mayhem. Wish I could afford one of the Wiard format duos.
I dig being able to choose between through zero and non-through zero, the latter is cool if you doing some glitchy sounding sequence :D
Very cool! Why oh why don't I own one of these yet?
Can I buy a Doepfer a110-6 to have the same?
Cynthia you are gorgeous and brilliant!
best infomercial EVER
can i buy one of these? can't find any info!!
"those aren't your daddy's waveforms" = quote of the day
Don't we ... ? ... we do !
Brilliant. So do we. x
brilliant
amazing sound..
very interesting video,just subscrived
be my grandmaaa Cynthia:)
sweet movie!
Noice sounds!
Excellent VCO.Time to raid the piggy bank.
Just a heads up everyone. This person scammed a lot of people in the synth community, stealing their money.
bernadette blevins Google Cynthia Webster synth scam
@@blitbleep this doesnt surprise me - this vid was creepy an scammy as heck
Am I the only one who actually likes how it sounds when u turn thru zero technology off? :)
take a shot every time she says "those aren't your daddy's waveforms"
I WANT TO BE A HAPPY BLEEPER TOO!!!
Your theory of Chowning being influenced by Mandlebrot is brilliant! Ive often thought about the fractal like nature of FM synthesis.
how....
Ha Ha, fantastic!!!
It's more comical then an actual advertisement, sadly this doesn't really sell it to me. Maybe let it actually sound musical would help allot.
I have a long demo that gets a bit musical at the end (after 14:20 to the end), but I was only scratching the surface of possibilities.

😊
Do you realize you've been cheated out of half your modulation all this time? It's true!
move the camera away from your face a little bit. nice demo though, thanks
are you cheeky?
well that was one of the most annoying infomercials i've ever watched.
Edit - what a surprise that hard sell comes from a bankrupt former pornographer who never filled module orders lmfao
I dont like this kind of hard sell video in the world of modular, "Your music will sound Better" what load of crap...
psyops.
synthia webster finaly got enough money from selling modules for the final operation.
is she a he? no offense , just curiosity
+monzon marcelo Did you think at all before posting this? Not only is it totally irrelevant, but really rude whether she's transgender or not.

SJWs ATTACK
social justice warriors warriors... nice one Paul B
Chartre Khan ok man ill just leave you to fight your own battles in future then ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
You are a man?
never seen a man called Cynthia
