thought the title meant "4 milliseconds" at first, I was like "how is a delay with a 4ms interval weird" lol wonderful sounds, like that stuff around 1:00 that was so cool Edit: to be fair a 4 millisecond delay would sound very odd because 4ms is such a short time but it still wouldnt be a conceptually weird piece of gear
I don’t comment much on RUclips. Career lurker you might say. Andrew, the level of excellent creative choices in the entire video: cinematography, editing, music, and teaching has compelled me to come out of hiding. You make my life better. More inspired. More curious. More open. Thank you.
Honestly I think your weird gear and 4 producers 1 sample series are 2 of my favorite things that exist right now. So much creativity and all in the name of good clean musical fun^^
I tried this out the day it hit stores, didn't really get a handle on it right there and then but I could see the possibilities and bought it on the spot. I never regretted it. A lot of people I know bought this module and sold it on quickly - or tried it out in a store and found it hard to control. Patience is a virtue. It's a subtle beast and needs to be handled properly. Being heavy handed with it gets out of hand quite quickly - which is great sometimes! This module is an absolute mainstay of my live sample based system and I would seriously miss it if it suddenly wasn't there. Great review. P.S It's not weird - not to me anyway :D
I really like how you have the video ends with you taking out all the patch cables. It seems like a very ritualistic way to say good bye to that patch. I feel like it helps with closure that you'll probably never see that patch again
I don't ever seeing myself getting into modular synths for creating music, but I love most of what comes out of it and how artists who use this kind of equipment have the know how to make it sound as great as possible.
I've never really had an interest in synths, like ever. But you have a knack for making information easy to digest even for non enthusiasts. I dig your vids man, there's so many cool instruments out there!
GOD DAMN! HOLLY F' THIS SH'T!!! It is a super heavy machine gun WEAPON for SynthWave, Electronic background music, Space Music... It is not a weird gear! It is a supermassive WEAPON in music! Everyday people would KILL for a thing like that even in a software audio plugin form. (if it would be exist)
I recently started trying to make my own videos of gear etc and damn you make look so easy. I have a whole new appreciation for your content haha ITS SO WELL LIT
@@remic6376 If you have access to a good set of headphones or speakers and you watch any sort of video that requires you to listen critically to the details of the sound in them to properly experience the video, you should use them. If not, you're not really watching the video to its potential.
@@remic6376 Yea, I didn't mean it literally, it's like how people say if you eat pineapple on pizza you don't deserve rights (I'm on the other end of that btw) It just an exaggeration.
Minecraft finished loading in the background (after over 20 minutes, because modpack) the second the video got to the final display of sounds. That song and the Minecraft menu music fit together well enough to be quite worrying.
those overlays at 6:35 are really cool, love your editing! Did you use this guy in Alabaster at all? edit: actually maybe he used it in Synth City since thats recommend in the end screen
@@TheBigLou13 I think I've seen a similar thing/option (the layer blend modes) in image editing software. I use that a ton. Good to know you can do similar things with video. Thank you. :)
The module is worthy of discussion. I thought it was going to be just another tap-tempo delay module. It reminds me of when Yamaha put a pitch wheel on a drum machine... brilliant. It sounds like a great module to use as an external effect for just about anything.
Andrew Huang aka Spaghetti Patch Kid . Seriously i don't know how you make sense of these patches with like 5 different colors and 30 different cables , i'd find it impossible to keep track of it all .
I'd love to see more videos about this thing! This one is really especially cool. I hope they make a VST emulation of it in the near future. I'd totally buy that.
Hey Andrew, I have an interesting idea for a musical challenge for you. I would like to see you try to make a song on your modular synthesizer using only a single tone that you then turn into all of the different sounds. I have to imagine most of the difficulty would be in making the percussion, but I think the idea would be an interesting creative challenge.
Pretty dope delay module, would love to play around with one but it's just too expensive. At least that gave me the motivation to try to create a virtual emulation of it, so that's nice 👍
Easy doable in reason with the drum sequencer and the standard delay in reason that can be on, crossfaded in or... Tap :) run through vocoder linked to a midi knob
So today I finally got my ears syringed (it was _abso-fucking-tastic_ ) and this video happened to be the first thing I played in my headphones on the bus journey home. Today couldn't have been a more perfect day!
Yo this is my first video that i watched of you and can i say , them beats made me tear 🤧 made me think of a soundtrack song off of tekken tag tournament ❤️ u sir just gained a die hard subscriber
Just managed to buy on eBay for £249 Inc postage. No brainer! One of the most interesting modules around. Come to think of it this, when it arrives will be my 5th 4MS module. SWN though prob not my next module will likely be my next 4MS?

A 4ms delay would basically become a comb filter.
Damnit not again
@@matt_sexton lol Teo I think you're cursed or something (or we have similar viewing habits lol)
correct, sub ~10ms is basically comb filter. nothing really weird about it.
@id523a what's a flanger without LFO modulating the timing? right, a comb filter.

@D r I p p Merry Christmas ya Grinch!
Good god, it's a gear video. Not exactly the Mona Lisa or War and Peace. No need to prostrate yourself on the ground and grovel.
@@vampiresforesl I think you are confusing “grovel” with “gratitude”
Honestly I think your weird gear and 4 producers 1 sample series are 2 of my favorite things that exist right now. So much creativity and all in the name of good clean musical fun^^
The closing track should have gone on for another 7 minutes. It was just getting good!
This is great. The track totally gave me a modern 80's luxury vibe
Brother located?
That's a great interface, those buttons across the top.

Man, I love your cinematography so much - just outstanding.
Also, holy crap, what a module!
The series is back, YES

Yo the jam at 4:22 is genius. It’s crazy short but has so much. I’d love if you expanded on it, I can almost hear a funky melody comin. Props!
Andrew is uploading really frequently. Has Christmas come early or have I died and gone to heaven?
maybe both
I hope its the Christmas one
levi niha too
Was just thinking the same thing, 4 in a week!! He's on a creative hot streak! Anything more now is a bonus :D
Hopefully it is Christmas because people like you deserve to be immortal ;)
Was recently thinking you hadn’t done a “Weird Gear” ep in a while. This one sounds really great! Thanks, sir!
the track at the end is such a nice tune that hits my soul
Next time on WEIRD GEAR: Andrew hooks up his brain to a machine that sucks the music out of his soul
Had to watch that intro twice, that was just sick, your video production quality just keeps on getting better
GOD DAMN! HOLLY F' THIS SH'T!!!
It is a super heavy machine gun WEAPON for SynthWave, Electronic background music, Space Music...
It is not a weird gear! It is a supermassive WEAPON in music!

I love the fact that the videography is getting to be so entertaining to go along with such great content. It feels like a really good MV
I love the way you plot twisted the weird gear sound, I expected it to be normal but it was ran through the tapographic delay effect.
The final sounds are so similar to Daft Punk! I loved it!
Feeling just a touch inadequate with Ableton's Delay effect right about now...
If you're not watching Andrew Huang videos while wearing headphones are you really watching an Andrew Huang video?
If your watching any music related video like that your not worthy of existing, anyways
@@KnzoVortex what are you talking about also your like a year late

Matthias Puech also did the 4ms Ensemble Oscillator, and firmwares for some MI modules, a true genius!
your videos are my inspiration to save up money so i can experiment with my own music and sounds!
Thank you Andrew Huang!
I've only just begun to appreciate your skill with hihats
those overlays at 6:35 are really cool, love your editing!
Did you use this guy in Alabaster at all?
edit: actually maybe he used it in Synth City since thats recommend in the end screen
@@TheBigLou13 okay cool lol. I wasnt really asking for a tutorial, just complimenting the artistic choice, but thanks haha

🎵two bits🎵
The track in the end was so dope man, Andrew I love your videos! 😀
seriously the coolest intro ever
Andrew Huang aka Spaghetti Patch Kid .
Seriously i don't know how you make sense of these patches with like 5 different colors and 30 different cables , i'd find it impossible to keep track of it all .
The colour-coordinating probably helps lol
Favourite series on your channel Andrew! Love weird gear! Now I need to go buy one of these!!
Awesome. I love the montage at the end, very nicely done!
I went back and watched this video and I'd love to see more content like this.
This is the most amazing thing i've seen all year
2:57 this is the kind of cleverness that I want to expand into a paradigmal redefinition of screenless digital operation!
I'd love to see more videos about this thing! This one is really especially cool. I hope they make a VST emulation of it in the near future. I'd totally buy that.
Now that's *weird* and cool
The tapping makes it really unique
This would be really cool in a guitar pedal format
Great overview and explanation. Your jam at the end is spot on. Well done.
I can just see the designers going, "What if a multiTAP delay was a PUN?!?!?"
Lmao, dude you managed to sell that module to me in literally 5 seconds (that tap delay!!!)
besides your beastly talent, whoever is filming and editing (you?) its fking the shiznit. Quality.
4:06 - This was the kind of dark magick I was wanting to hear.
I like how the tap delay thing is just a very basic pressure sensor
Cheap design excellent sound
Song Challenge:
Make the song "Thunder" out of Thunders !!!!
you have no idea how long I've been waiting for another weird gear ep
Andrew,
Can you show us your latest set up? Like you're Mac set up, you're main plugins and maybe a tour of you're recording studio?
Now this, is something I definitely want. I kinda also want this as a VST effect.
a lot of those sounds had some serious SOPHIE vibes this is so cool

So that's where the demogorgon's voice came from
0:36 Im sold
I love the final track. sounds like some 90s house or like Detroit techno.
4ms heard Vorso's 'Cephalopod' and decided to make a module around it.
Nice! Thanks for reminding me why I love this module. :)
That intro was weirdly awesome !!!!
I will never stop applauding your editing 🙌
worst part about making a killer patch... cleaning the rack for the next one ;v;
Easy doable in reason with the drum sequencer and the standard delay in reason that can be on, crossfaded in or... Tap :) run through vocoder linked to a midi knob
So today I finally got my ears syringed (it was _abso-fucking-tastic_ ) and this video happened to be the first thing I played in my headphones on the bus journey home. Today couldn't have been a more perfect day!
Yes my favorite series!!!
What a video! Whole new level of creativity! How did u made this plonky bassline Andrew?
I love your music on journey to the micro verse it was cool when I found out it was you I'm a long time sub
That final track was absolutely amazing
Yo this is my first video that i watched of you and can i say , them beats made me tear 🤧 made me think of a soundtrack song off of tekken tag tournament ❤️ u sir just gained a die hard subscriber
Great review thank you I've just ordered one so your video really helped.
You are so good at what you do.
I LOVE that ui concept
This gives me ideas
Also looking forward to an in the computer similar product
Oh, weird gear! My favourite!
Love the track at the end. Awesome progressive trance vibe.
never messed with modular stuff but even i understood most of he break down
Next you should do a Topographic Delay.
Is there a full version of that last jam somewhere, good lord the intellijel/qu-bit chords is such a wombo combo!
i love your videos and i am glad that weird gear is back
2:15 That sounds exactly like a raven call
Didn't expect DAT FUNK
This 4:25 souds so fricing nice!
Thank you for another great video. 🤙🏽
Like I don’t have the money for any of this but Weird Gear is one of my f a v e series!! The sansula kalimba is probs my fav so far
Your eyebrows are a natural phenomenon.
That closing track is dope.
I love your Eurorack videos!
Holy moly modular/eurorack gear looks and can sound amazing, but also looks kinda intimidating and expensive
wish you played other sounds through it, but this looks great
Song idea: a song made of all of the autocaptions getting Hey it’s Andrew Huang messed up, it happens a lot and some of them are super funny
1:48 sounds like the intro the undercover by Bassnectar.
These sounds gave me ASMR
Andrew YOU NEED TO MAKE A 1 HOUR ASMR SESSION
I wanted to get into hardware and not sure where to start. I don't have a large budget, if you were to suggest a starting hardware, which would it be?
The return! hooray
Modular synths look very complicated but also quite fun to play with
Have you made a video about your modular rack, or putting one together?
Just managed to buy on eBay for £249 Inc postage. No brainer! One of the most interesting modules around. Come to think of it this, when it arrives will be my 5th 4MS module. SWN though prob not my next module will likely be my next 4MS?
