I've been happily messing around with these 3 for months and this was JUST what the doctor ordered. The quick tips on getting the Subharmonicon setup were especially helpful. Thanks!
The Subharmonicon was the first Moog i got. It is amazing, you can build entire backing tracks for a song. It is doing quite well in ambient music. With all the chord changes etc. Inspiring instrument!
I built my own mixer that clips on the back prior to the trilogy coming out, but they really need to offer this to the people who bought these individually.
The combination of these that interests me is the Mother 32 and Subharmonicon. I don’t understand why that combo is not available as one of the studio systems but the other two possible combos are available.
I'm new in the music producing game... Maybe someone can answer me or help me. I used bandlab and there were so many already finished samples i could use . You just drag and drop them and bam, you have a beat. Is this how it works? Whats the point of producing house music. It cant be that easy. Should i create the beat completely by myself or what should I learn?
Not true. There are two sequencers and two oscillators and you can assign which sequencer controls which oscillators. You can have a sequencer control 1, 2, or even 0 oscillators
@@patrick5645 Yeah, you can definitely just have it trigger one, two, or none. Then, if you bring in the sub-oscillators you can have it trigger three, four, five, all six, or still none of the oscillators. It doesn't have to trigger both main oscillators at the same time...
doesnt really produce any nice sounds...also seems to be way to complicated for any type of practical studio use. for modular lovers yes...but for serious production i dont know really...
@@davidm3569 There are many better examples of what you are talking about that use the Subharmonicon. I think this video was more of a demo of showing the polyrhythmic part of the Subharmonicon, which is cool, but I don't use it that way with all four polyrhythmic options. That is very niche. It is great using 2, for example. Also, using 2 and then a third at the same division. I hope that makes sense. I understand what you are saying because I felt that way at first too, but the deeper I went in and then pulled back a little, not trying to incorporate everything at once on the Subharmonicon, that's where I found my sweet spot.
@@THEELECTRONCREEPER EXACTLY! That is basically what I was trying to say with my last comment above. Pulling back and not trying to utilize everything, for example, making chords. And it's not just making chords like with any other paraphonic or polyphonic synth, it is a very beautiful and unique sound of the Subharmonicon. It's not just the weird, unusable polyrhythmic tempo stuff that seems to be unappealing to most people here. That is just one possibility. Slowing everything down, and adding some reverb and delay really makes the Subharmonicon shine! It is definitely an instrument that opens up sonic possibilities unavailable just on the Mother-32 and DFAM alone, or any other synth for that matter. At least that is what I have found in my experience, and I have a room full of musical equipment some of which I don't use anymore. However, I always come back to the Moog Trinty/Moog Sound Studio. Here is just one example. I wish I had videos to share, but I am sure he will not mind. Check this out for what I am trying to explain: ruclips.net/video/1BWF3kx3PVA/видео.html

By far, so very far, the coolest use of the Subharmonicon I've seen. Max is a wizard!

The fact that he made it sound good without reverb or a delay..
Great video. Max really knows his product making this video very interesting, informative and entertaining. Thank y'all.
Always great to hear from Max Ravitz
Awesomeness! I strive to be as good as Max one day....
Awesome stuff. Great demo. Love these things. All 3 together is a beautiful thing.

13:40 I love how it sounds but just tune the M32 osc, please
Really nice jam at the end! 🙌
Max is the lord of the Trinity! I have had them all for a while and hadn't discovered the 10v sequencer out trick on the SubH yet, great tip
nice demo Thank you!!
DFAM is the sexiest
Is that the hipster version of Behringer EDGE?
Ok this was 🔥
Hey max, when will they release the cable rack and mixer for us silly peeps who bought the synths individually?
Fun video :)
Good question - I'd like the mixer/power supply too ...
I built my own mixer that clips on the back prior to the trilogy coming out, but they really need to offer this to the people who bought these individually.
I also would like one. Have a Grandmother and these three and would like a simple mixer available!!
It still has that Moog feel 🤘🏽, and deep brown note territory to kill unprotected subwoofers 🤘🏽
Max...? Did you change your name? I LOVE MOOG❗🎵🔥🤙🙉💥

Errrm.. moog sound studio 3
One day. One day she will be mine

No start making your own music/ samples to produce with
No sample here brother, all synthesis. You should start at the basics of it. Understanding soundsynthesis is the beauty of musicmaking
You can look for samples on youtube too, that takes some time and work and a good ear. I wouldn't use melodic samples provided by your daw
@@zzzz-yw4zk which resources would you recommend for an absolute beginner ? There are so many things around, hard to pick one
its so sad that the subharmonicons sequencer triggers both oscillators.. I guess its because of the envelopes but yea, its a dealbreaker for me..

Serious production = Trap beats?
I’d love one, but it’s also deeply unmusical. 🤭
I have them too and it is hard to get some sounds that perhaps another person would like to listen to :-) Guess its more for your own fun.
You can get some beautiful soundscapes going if you slow everything down a bit and focus on building chords. Also sounds amazing with reverb

The subharmonicon is really the "west coast" Moog, this envelope behaviour is typical from Serge and Buchla. Such a cool trio !
