    For those unfamiliar with the Double Knot, check out my overview videos: • Lorre-Mill Double Knot... and • Lorre-Mill Double Knot...
    Thanks again to Meng Qi for allowing me the opportunity to showcase his awesome work :D

    I love your videos! Please make more and share widely, we need more female synthesists with your level of expertise around 🙏

    New video! And with the most adorable little wooden box.

      It really is cute isn't it? I think it compliments the Double Knot wonderfully, myself :)

    When is she coming back? Is she?
    ): I hope she's ok. Also, I wish we could get more videos like these - they are so unique and explanative

      Thank you guys so much for these sweet comments, it really means a ton to me! Sorry it took me so long to respond here! Please check out my recent update video for some context on why I disappeared so suddenly - I appreciate you so much and am excited to back to making videos again :)

    Yay! New video :-) That interface looks gorgeous and seems really well thought through. I especially like the voltage switches. Such a simple but useful idea!

      I know, right? Minimal, but so open to possibilities. Once I got mine, I was amazed that I ever used my Double Knot without it! When I had to send it back to have an alteration done to it's design I felt like I was missing something very important - hands-on expression with synthesizers is something we sometimes don't give enough focus, it really makes a difference!

    Thanks again for a wonderful video. Looking forward to you Mescaline video! I have a feeling your thoroughness will open it up new possibilities for me for something I already think is amazing. The combination of the DK and the mescaline is great fun! Enjoy.

      I can't wait for the Mescaline video! It'll be a pretty huge undertaking, definitely my longest video(s) so far, but totally worth it to demystify such an esoteric instrument, hehe. And I agree that they are an awesome combo, especially with the proper adapters ^_^

    • @smuff73
      @smuff73 5 лет назад +3

      @@alliewayaudio9108 Indeed there is a lot to the Mescaline and much of it is 'esoteric' as you say. All I have done is sync the two so far, intrigued with where you take it. Glad you are back on track.Best.S

    Love your videos and your voice! Great demo / review / tutorial again. Lorre-Mill Double Knot and Arturia MiniFreak will both be in my studio soon, but I think I'll first go with the mini-Buchla / cheaper Plumbutter type rhythmic device, the new Double Knot v. 3 which costs $700 at Perfect Circuit. Niche manufacturers vanish unexpectedly. Their weirdo products then go for very high prices later, since they are no longer being produced. Sucks for service and firmware updates, but there's always a trade-off. Lorre-Mill, may they live forever!

    I love your videos and your voice is really pleasant to listen to. I didnt follow how do you get the melodies though.Thank you for this Allie, this is a really nice channel. Cheers from Brazil.

      I found the video super illuminating too, but also couldn't work this aspect out, and watched the previous videos too but couldn't get my machine to follow in the same way either!

    Can't seem to find Gesture Arcade on the Meng Qi site or anywhere else for that matter. =(

    did she die? or just the channel?

  • @macbook_pro_2018

    I think it’s pronounced like mung chi

    • @alliewayaudio9108
      @alliewayaudio9108  5 лет назад +3

      If that's the case I feel pretty silly >.< I kinda figured I didn't know the proper pronunciation though, but I heard other youtubers say it that way so I wasn't sure. Thanks for the info :)

      ​@@fibonacho Thanks so much!Since this video, I've actually started to learn Chinese, so listening back to this is a little cringeworthy - Meng Qi and I are still friendly though so I guess all is forgiven ;P 我开学中文,但是我的中文很不好!慢慢来!
