Due to...laws, the sweepstakes can only be for those in the USA. I know. It sucks. We get an occasional synth, most of y'all get healthcare. 🤷🏻♂🤒🎛
Yes... it sucks 😂. But I have my Lyra-8 diy kit still waiting to be built. So what...
lol. Good point. I came here to whinge about not being able to enter, but yeah, I wouldn’t give up our free health care for all the synths in the world. I also got a DFAM, Monopoly and a Polyend Tracker with my numerous stimulus payments. My mate in Melbourne got one of these Pulsar 23’s too. So, I guess I can forgive you for your sponsor not accepting global entries. This time…
Free healthcare is a farce. We still end up going privately because the public service sucks.
hahahah fair trade-off i guess
Awww shame, not even Canada eh? Fair comment about the healthcare lmao. Good luck to the winner!
9:00 "ok this sound is getting boring to me"
me: *headbanging furiously*
Just bought this yesterday! SO glad you're covering it. I have a lot to learn.
nice work man you got some great sounds out of it!
You and Benn would create some sick tunes!
Do you feel it would be safe/easy to change the knobs to some shiny metal ones? Or is it best to not mess with removing and replacing knobs? Thanks
@@GirlfightClublol in what way could metal knobs considered more unsafe?
@@adriatic.vineyards safe for the DEVICE, as in not affecting its tuning etc
“I had a lot of fun”
For me this is the essential ingredient of Soma’s gear (and all gear in general). The same with the Lyra, when I start to play, it becomes a dialogue and it’s good not to be always controlling what emerge from it.
The TikTok influencer voice over was really something unexpected lol. Funny thing is I can't tell if her performance was satirical or not.
I also found myself wondering if she was in on it or if Benn just went on Fiverr and found someone to do the segment
@@AboveTheTrees00 ok boomer
Maybe it was a little bit obnoxious, but seeing how much it bothers people makes it even better.
@@AboveTheTrees00 This reaction is exactly why he did it
@@AboveTheTrees00 nah it was funny
Thank you for covering this! Such a cool piece of gear- keep up the great work Benn :)
This thing is such a cool vibe. Great video as always Ben!
Wow, what an amazing piece of gear. Great video as always Benn.
You deserve the biggest synth channel on RUclips. Your videos often go further to inform and entertain than channels with a million subs. Especially loving the science content lately and how you respect the audiences inteligence enough not to stop for the minutiae. Keep killing it!
The transition from TikTok vice tutorial to hardcore dystopian industrial drum beat was nothing short of brilliant. 👍 love it.
Tremendous examples! Had me going cross ear’d in a great way :)
Yes! Spotted the orange pulsar23 in the background a couple of vids ago 😁 can't wait to see it getting the Benn Jordan treatment!
Best noise generator in the World. Vlad Kreimer is a crazy genius. There is so much flexibility. The Pipe and Ether are awsome Tools to find realy unique sounds. Soma love! ❤️✌️
this thing is really crazy.. probably the most interesting drum synths ever..
@@grindedfranz 100%
Or one of the hardest
@@christopherpederson1021 Thats true, Mate.
great video. Fantastic run through that conveyed a huge amount of information despite just being presented as having a jam. Then pure awesomeness. Love this machine. Not sure I'm quite good enough for one.
Great jams Benn!
Great video. People rightly focus a lot on the weird functionality of this synth, but the SOUND is just incredible to me. When you start getting a beat going around 7 minutes into the video, it’s just so rich and fat and full of character.
Superb demonstration and a lovely machine! It does seem a little spendy, but that's our current situation. Keep up the great work, much appreciation.
Congrats on 100k!!!
The jam sessions are massive. When I think back how Stimming struggled to get anything useful out of the Pulsar... this is a way better showcase of its possibilities. Great job!
Indeed
Congrats on creating the best acid patch I have ever heard, just brilliant
Congrats on the 100k subs Benn
Definitely would love to see a longer vid one day if ya pick one up. Sounded pretty cool! Cheers!
Ah! Giveaway not in my region! I guess I just have to continue my plans of building a weird drum modular myself instead.
6:15 Instant Nine Inch Nails.
this is the best synth I ever heard...right up my alley cuz I grew up listening to Aphex Twin and am very much into dark minimal dnb these days. I need this! or at least a VST for Fruity that would be so sick!!!!!
that you wont see, because its against Vlad's ( soma labs ) phillosphy. get the real thing. i swear you wont regert a single dime!!! from the moment you unbox it and put your fingers on this unblievable device, you are gonna fall in love forever. i will take mine into grave....no joke!!!
That Darkwave patch! Nice
Hey Benn, this was awesome, just wish you had done a few more example patches, was really getting into it ! The Tik-Tok voiceover was very reminiscent of Valley Girl by Frank Zappa, loved it! Congrats on the 100k!
Great video Benn. FYI: the jacks on the back of the unit are bidirectional they are both inputs and outputs, the pin adapters on the front panel complete the circuit. Amazing machine!
You can input amy sound into any voice
It's my main drum machine and drumsynth - just finished my first beattape, using only the pulsar! what an instrument!
Would love to try one of these sometime. It seems like a great way to generate interesting, organic, evolving beats.
cheers for this!
What a magnificent beast! Congratulations on the 100k! Very nice. :) The contest is only open to U.S residents? Ouch.
Man, I would love a Pulsar at some point. Fantastic weird machine, much like all of Soma’s stuff
yeah, too bad we prob wont get anything new for a while with this war going on
@@lol-wc3ld that's a shame. But they are based out of Poland too , so maybe they can continue to develop out of there instead of Russia.
That Acid Patch is well caustic, you caught the vibe. Reminds me of downloading tiny snippets of Polygon Window by modem in early internet days to try to mail order Acid vinyl from the UK.
Super cool drum machine, would love to see a diy version since the complete is so expensive.
That looks incredibly fun!
God I've loved this thing..... I've been wanting one of these since I've heard the thing!
love the Jexus aesthetic for the acid demo section :D
You hooked up the clock and it immediately made Nine Inch Nails 😆 This thing looks like an incredible amount of fun and tinkering.
"If modular is getting too easy for you, why don't you level up and try the Pulsar 23" - Best of luck to those allowed to enter the contest. I guess this is just for US based folks...
thanks, great video about a great machine. I love my Pulsar-23.
Great video- and have to say I love mine! Definitely not an 808
The opposite of an 808 really 🤣
This is the sickest piece of music gear I’ve ever seen
aaawww I was secretly hoping for this to happen for so long!
My thoughts were "this machine - not exactly my cup of tea but it'd probably really shine in the hands of an experienced IDM artist like Benn..." - and oh boy you delivered!
I *love* Pulsar-23!! ♥️
This thing is so gnarly!
I love this thing
Feeding my GAS with your absolutely fantastic skilled beats. Thank you.
amazing demos holy shit
Holy shit you're videos are too interesting for my own good ... I feel myself peeking into a rabbit hole deeper than the Mariana Trench!
Lots of us synth geeks hanging out here at the bottom of the trench, welcome!
Dude that is so sweet, it's like I'm at a rave on the beach and some rich kids are partying. Now throw at catch phrase in that loop like "stars in my jar" or release the dark scare crow.
Super cool video, only Benn can make it as fun as this. Bu tthe Rabbit Hole is even deeper. The six outputs are also six inputs depending on your connection.
really nice stuff, digging the IDM and darkwave patches especially. cheers :)
just came back to hear that idm sesh again... and to mention: this video is the reason i also call a pulsar my own :D
it looks great and fun,in a deep way...
I have one, and it's an endless discovery . great vid. I love the influencer hahaha
When you said you hired a tik tok influencer to narrated the layout, I laughed and thought you were kidding, then when she came in I wheezed so hard I couldn't breathe for most of the narration. She did a genuinely great job though, much respect for her, it was just so fucking funny.
Same. It was such a great tbit 😁“…These little circle things…that you put your fingers on, that tell you your percentage of body fat! Wow!..”
I loved the P-23 at first. But I was constantly trying ways to not make it sound like the P-23. I was using Eurorack oscillators and stuff and getting good results but eventually I sold as I thought I can make much more personal drum sounds without it. But as a machine and interface it’s great. Don’t miss it.

Stumbled on to this… F_CKING WILD!
great video! the video effect during the acid patch looks sick. How'd you make it?
I use this and it's incredible
I read some things about audio out of the Pulsar being DC offset. Did you notice or account for this? do you just put a dc filter or is it a non-issue? Love the character and concept!
That IDM patch made my spleen itchy!!
New and come across this channel and the topic you talk about is very different from what I watch. I am wondering as a sound engineering, what do you think of those HiFi speaker. Do they worth that much different in price between high end to cheap speaker? Is it that much different?
How does this only have 25k views. This was so interesting. Let’s see what else he has!
I understood less than 10% of the things being said in this video but I couldn't stop watching. I don't even know how I got here, but it made me sub anyways. You're a wizard, or something I guess.
That darkwave patch slaps
I love that thing......I would basically disappear from public forever playing with that noise generator
This machine can produce a lot of cool sounds, however, I feel like it is for the advanced user. I would rather invest in a different piece of hardware but I could see the modular or hardware enthusiasts loving this one. Loved your darkwave track.
Lucky owner of black #27. I laughed pretty hard at the "That's not complicated at all" comment. This thing bends space/time, I swear--and yeah, you can't help but make something unique on it, because god help you if you try to duplicate a patch--even when you photograph it, you can't duplicate settings. Trust me. I've tried.
Amaya did a great job!
Congratulations! I love this machine, but the only way I can afford it is to win yours!
I always learn alot from you- keep me in mind for your giveaway week!
man if i won that beast id have benn make a few more videos with it before he sent it to me haha that thing is sick! hes making some sick tunes just crazy cool!
I remember seeing Martin stimming have one in his studio.
This machine sounds so mean I love it
"two little buttons to check your bodyfat"......that cracked me up, absolutely brilliant.
It takes me three years to finish a song in Ableton. Now probably 30.
Relatable
What gear was it hooked up to on darkwave patch, that seemed like a great. combo
A year later... is the Arturia Polybrute still your favorite poly synth???
i have a friend that would love this
Dang you approached some grimy Aphex Twin on that second patch. Respect
Yeah, pulsar's on the list
hey you can also use external LFO's and other sources. it makes it INSANE! there is a zillion sounds to get out of it.
I am content with just using the internal delay
that first cut had echos of Aphex Twin...very cool
You hit right on some NiN at the start there haha. "I wanna ... you like an animal"
when you said you passed 100k i was shocked since i was sure that by now you'd have a boatload more, as you'd deserve
The most beautiful lickable drum machine ever made!
havin a pulsar would be . so nice
2:00 I would like to ask after listening a little bit can you patch anything to anything and is it possible to do some serious damage if you have absolutely zero tech knowledge regarding this type of thing?
First decent Pulsar review.
Good luck to all participants!
It would be fun for those who can't join the contest (because of outside the US) to participate in a 'samples/loops by way of the Pulsar 23' giveaway. Just a thought. 😉
I just found you honestly I was going to uninstall RUclips but this fixed that
You could say that this drum machine sounds…
Finger lickin’ good 😎
“I’m going to give away this machine. Now watch me get my spit all over it.” 😄
7:38 "You let me violate you...."
This sounds and seems like something Trent Reznor uses.
Y e s
8:28
That gets aggressive quickly lol
Good match for a 303!
Who won it, and did they make anything? Love to see people using it, it's so cool!
