It's really inspiring to see one of my favorite artists use such an incredibly humble studio setup. I'd like to see more videos like this to combat GAS.
I'm so pleased you shared this. Having one good synth and one good pedal chain is a very productive way to work. I reset my studio more in line with this principle and am having a great time with it
this video is one of my biggest inspirations. I look up to rival consoles and hope to create sounds like him one day; he has such a distinct and unique voice and has an incredible palette of sounds.
Anybody know what song he was playing for a few seconds on the piano? It's killing me. I'm pretty sure it's a very famous piece, but I can't remember what it is. I might be completely wrong too lol. Edit: I think I remember it from a movie maybe. is it American Beauty?Or a tv show? Idk. But I love that chord progression
TheGreenwood03 well, if a "spring reverb" doesn't have a spring in it, it's an emulation of a spring reverb, not actually a spring reverb. they do have the same kinda sound tho

Piano sounds amazing
I love that he uses only one synth to get such creative results. So inspiring.

please more, this guy is a genius :)
Interesting studio setup, so minimalistic and powerful. And awesome music, no need to mention
This was the best one in the "in the studio" series
Icant stop listening, in to the heart, great producer
No boundaries. That's what I love about what he's doing here.
just discovered your music, and really happy to find this video seeing more of your process
Nice to see someone else who appreciates the DD-3 as much as me.
He's sooo good at music, it's insane
what a great guy! inspiring
I learned so much from this guy's 2 FCTMG vidseos. More of this!
Inspiring Ryan, thanks a lot! Just got the Particle and love it!
amazing
So simple but yet so effective. Chose your instrument and master it ie he has a moog and chooses not to use it...incredible.
Love it
this is superb. great job rival consoles and fact!!
Anyone know what the synth at 3:02 is called?
Microkorg
YES! Thank you for this!
I already love him.
Helios @0:41, such a wonderful track :)

I always revisit this video from time to time whenever I am lacking in creativity
That Midi Murf and Red Panda Particle sound amazing together.. or at least I assume he was playing with them both on...
love these videos! keep doing them please!
Nice rig rundown and piano skills. x
lovely bg music too. good verk
Great bloke
@FACTmagazine, I like that you chose the adjective 'icy' to describe analog synths when pretty much everyone else goes on about how 'warm' they are.
no acoustic treatment?! does mixing take place in this studio or elsewhere?
Genius!
name of the last track? it starts 2:45min (beautiful), thanks for your music
Inspiring video, thanks for the tips and nice MI Quad VCA dawg.
love this guy)
Wonderful! Oh and amazing! Simplicity and intuitive design! Peace Christo 👽👽🕺🕺🎶🎶👍🏻✌🏻✌🏻👏🏻👏🏻🛸🛸🙏🙏🐕🐕🔦
rival consoles
MASTER!!
This is so fucking cool. Love it.
where can i get one of those micro spring reverbs?
Also was going to ask this. Looks almost like a kit you can order and assemble yourself.
Belton does these. You have to buy the tank separated from the springs. Go check their website
He uses the A-199 SpringReverb modular from Doepfer
Corentin Bossard
seems belton only does them in bulk? the site ask you to inquire for a quote which usually means high $
i just emailed them hopefully no one calls my cell and starts speaking Hangul lol
Anybody know what song he was playing for a few seconds on the piano? It's killing me. I'm pretty sure it's a very famous piece, but I can't remember what it is. I might be completely wrong too lol.
Edit: I think I remember it from a movie maybe. is it American Beauty?Or a tv show? Idk. But I love that chord progression
i made it up, it was just a bunch of chords...
It kinda sounds like modern soul by James blake
i might be wrong but think david august uses a similar chord progression quiet often. at least thats what it reminded me of.
2:00 Sounds distinctly (albeit non-intentionally) like Gerry Rafferty's sax solo from Baker Street.
My kinda approach this, I like how he's drawn a couple of presets on his delay pedal lol
2:35 like his label mate Nils ;)
I've always wished I could have a modular synth to make music like Rival Consoles. He's my idol, yo.
You should try VCV Rack!
its just Prophet 8
08
Cool
How does he achieve that wavy piano rhythm right at beginning before he discusses pedals? Kind of stuttery triplet rhythm
a genius.
🖤
A. M. A. Z. I. N. G.
Why don’t we spotlight all the sift synths, DAWs and plugins used besides the hardware??
because in this case 95% of the synth sounds in every song are the prophet 8. from Odyssey to now.
IDM, please keep making it.
raw
Nice! What brand/model is that spring reverb?
It's the Doepfer a-199
anyone know the track name at the end of the video ?
Yes. Look into Rival Consoles' private Soundcloud. This should be one of the earlier sketches and tracks not published by Erased Tapes
What is the track at the start of the video? Is it Rival Consoles?
yes, Johannesburg - from: Night Melody EP
What microphone is he using?
Looks like a Rode nt2... Seems to be a wise choice if he uses the piano as a stetching tool
What's a spring reverb? XD
Monitors?
Mackie hr824
oh how much cost its (without piano)
A good 5 to 10 grand or more
The electronic Lionel Messi
Shut up
And the drums?????
No DD3 this is a DD7 ! :)
no it is not a dd7
TIL spring reverbs have actual springs in them 😛
not all of them, just a specific type:)
TheGreenwood03 well, if a "spring reverb" doesn't have a spring in it, it's an emulation of a spring reverb, not actually a spring reverb. they do have the same kinda sound tho
but u cant punch an emulation ang get that crash fx
You can never have enough reverb and delay
Don't put everything through a spring reverb kids!....
too late. I'm on my way to E.R. right now
his voice sounds like Damon Albarn
or Eric Prydz, similar mannerisms
