The switch to the left of Osc 3 just disables keyboard tracking of pitch. So Osc 3 will play at whatever pitch it's tuned to. You can still change the pitch using the tuning knob and octave selector. There are two reasons for this: 1. When using Osc 3 as an LFO (in the "Lo" range), it keeps the LFO at a fixed rate for vibratos, wha-whas, etc. This is the main reason. 2. It allows Osc 3 to be used as a drone note for emulating bagpipes or other droning sounds. It is NOT fixed to A-440 or any other particular note. You set the pitch (or LFO rate) with the tuning knob.
very helpful, you worth reading. if i wanted to voice modulate the synth, which cv input? thinking mod source but havent really dialed it in yet. i can send audio as cv no worries there
Good to see some new Behringer Model D videos, most of them on RUclips are around 2 years old. Please keep posting them. Not enough people talk about the controller panel, so good to see you are here
Thanks. Yea, I waited until I could get a second-hand unit! It's great, this instrument isn't going anywhere. I'm just working on a video about the audio in, that's coming this week. Cheers!
Have had mine almost a year and having fun with it, even without any musical ability whatsoever. Yours looks brand new, previous owner must have looked after it or never used it.
On the original Minimoog, there wasn't a separate lfo. So oscillator 3 was the option to use as an LFO (sacrificing it as an audio oscillator). The keyboard control could be switched off to keep the frequency stable while playing the other oscillators. It's also great at audio rates for adding FM effects. Original Moog modulars also didn't have a specific LFO module- any oscillator could be switched to 'low' rate to be used as an LFO. When Moog reissued the Minimoog, they added an LFO to further increase the synth's flexibility- so you could have vibrato with all 3 oscillators playable at once. A nice trick is to blend Osc 3 with the LFO to make more complex LFO wave shapes (edit- you got there as I was typing!! :)).
@@abominablemusic I forgot to say nice video! It's a fun journey- and the Neutron you mentioned is a blast to experiment with- it's full of all sorts of crazy noises (there's a couple of vids on my channel if you want to have a look).
@@thedonal great, subbed! I'll watch them over the weekend. I'm concentrating on using just the Model D and Neutron (and my little nifty modular rig) at the mo.
you can change the note of the 3rd osczillator by patching from cv/out to the model d´s cut-cv/in and using the modifier to control this works with any midi-keyboard/controler with cv/out
Yes, the pulse waves are hard-wired voltage divider taps into where a traditional potentiometer or Cv input would go in the oscillator for setting pulse-width.
i planned on buying one when they came out but didnt until covid but i love my boog, im always fiddling with it. its a solid unit for us cash strapped stans lol in the spirit of poverty, i use a raspberry pi 4 running puredata to control midi/cv and play it with a gamepad, a tablet, and my phone with touch interfaces i made for touchOSC. that said, i hear the neutron is a powerhouse module and behringer original if you're over the minimoog thing. gonna get that next hopefully
@@abominablemusic again... I think they should have done the Model D with the same patch capabilities of the Neutron. I got a Neutron first and really wished they had done the same to the Model D.
@@markschweter6371 i think Behringer had more flexibility with the Neutron, since it was a completely original instrument. I think they wanted the D to be more 'Moog'-like.
4:13 the third oscillator staying in a fixed note is for playing a droning note (paraphonically), I suppose. It doesnt have to stay in A if you change OSC 3 fundamental pitch, I suppose.
I hate to admit that is where mine is currently, but in a plastic container under the bed. Am getting a Zoom Ms-cdr70 in two weeks so will be getting it out again then.

Hey thanks, that's some good knowledge there! I'm still very much at the start of this analogue synth journey...

Great walkthrough, thanks!
i'd be very curious to get hands on a Boog in order to compare with my AJH modules.
Thanks for these explanations...
thank you for this.
Instant bagpipe
The sawtooth on OSC3 is the reverse of the ones on Osc 1 and 2.
This was pretty interesting but I wish you had run the Model D for this demonstration without any effects added to it.
I wanna buy this modul
Check the second hand market, should be around 200 bucks/euros...

Yea, I guess this is the 'bagpipe' mode!
tune it to drone the low D and play some in the air tonight
@@PiesliceProductions yes yes yes
This gives me meta-GAS because instead of wanting to buy a Model D I just have to get it out from the suitcase under the bed.
Magic suitcase of analogue goodness under the bed, nice!

Same!
