My favorite thing about your videos these days is I feel like I'm getting read one of my favorite books before I go to bed but also there's a massive rave.
Once that DFAM triangle folding kicked in, I was sold. I need this exact setup. So many timbres, so many mod possibilities, and it does drive the output very well. That moog lader filter is still such an icon too! And doubly so when folding it afterwards. Like, "New Death Grips just dropped" gritty. So good!
Mavis sounds great and you make modular look so easy and fun! I explicitly said to my wife only two days ago "don't let me get into modular synthesis", I don't have the space or the money!
I’m just getting into modular and there’s a LOT of vids to choose from on here. Yours are by far the most informative for me as a beginner. Thanks man, I’m learning a ton off of you!
it's hard watching through your videos because after less than a minute you already have so much inspiration from them that you just wanna up and make some tunes
Using a stackable cable with that tuner was an inspired move... almost as inspired as using that multi-mode delay, filter and reverb pedal ;) Great to see Love Beams in the mix
The wavefolder is a type of diode wavefolder, using a diode ladder going into a set of op-amps, but it’s completely wild and like nothing I’ve ever heard (or seen on an oscilloscope) before
I mean this pretty much sold me on the Moog mavis, so thanks for that...ordered one this week, also the music that starts at 30:22 till the end really gave me inspiration. A tad confused as to what each module is contributing at that point. .great jam
If you see this as an eurorack module, it is a synth voice for under $400. The malekko manther growl is $500. The only direct competitor at this price point would be the east beast which includes a pseudo sequencer. Awesome musical review as always Sir. This is the werkstatt I was expecting last year.
Routing the oscillator to the S+H is one of those “why didn’t I think of this myself” moments. This is gonna provide me with hours of fun on my Neutron while I save for a Mavis- which is, more or less, exactly what I’ve been looking for in a semi-modular synth.
Neutron + Mavis looks like fun. I have the 904A VCF which works nicely with the Neutron. I use the Neutron as a sound engine for my Roland AE-30 wind synth.
Great sounding little synth. I like it. I'm tempted, even though I don't feel like I need it! :-/ Thinking of selling my Kilpatrick Phenol and filling the desktop space it occupies with a Mavis and Make Noise Strega! Erm ..............
Bang on about the burnt acid vibe of the filter. It's that acidic tinge that sounds most interesting about this. Plus the Moog Wavebender, which is what they should have called the synth. Or Wavejumper after the Drexciya track.
Amazing as always. Moments of Morton Subotnick masquerading as a humble product demo. Will you ever perform in San Francisco? I’d love to hear you live.
Starting at about 21 1/2 minutes is what will be on my first generation Sony Walkman when I am free boarding (back country Moon boarding) just west of the Sea of Tranquility in that 1.5 km diameter bowl of Moondust that empties into a sweet Ridge run right into that little tavern on the backside of Reagan’s Brow. I’ll be banging Daphne Buffet Gates obviously, so it’ll all be comp. 1/6 earth G is hella sweet. Nice sounds.
Excellent video and sounds. Can’t wait to get my tiny little fingers on those knobs. Speaking of knobs, tell me about those DFAM knobs. I’d love to find a set of those.
Yes, I remembered Mavis the fairy from Willo the Wisp and thought, "Nice touch! But why the pink dog thing?" A brief Google image search later: "Ohhh!" Which now begs the question, did Moog name the Mavis in direct reference to Willo the Wisp?
Great video 👍. It puts Mavis on my wishlist though at Canadian prices, she's _not_ a cheap date! She would definitely add to the capability of the Neutron-based sound engine I'm building for my Roland AE-30 wind synth.
You should build Eurorack systems for people and sell as a complete set. This is a perfect sound and imagen adding the acid Eurorack you built previously. Wow a complete rave box. How did you create this Eurorack case for all these? Could you make a video adding this and the acid Eurorack together in one case? Then show us so I can build my own 🙏
Get a powered (eg integrated power) 104HP case and it’ll take both! As it’s 44+60hp - or get a 6U 104HP case would be my recommendation so you have some space below/above for other modules
I'm about to start moving up to more expensive equipment like moog for example and Eurorack systems. But I'd be really interested to see what you could do with some cheaper gear like the Behringer crave for example or behringer td-3. What to put them to and how to enhance them. Maybe talk about why they are cheap. Behringer is like the gateway drug to many of us so I'm interested in your perspective after year's working with higher end equipment.
If I didn’t already have a Werkstatt, I probably would. But that is a lot to pay for a waveshaper and a bigger patch bay, and its fitting in a modular case is not a selling point if you’ve not got the hp to spare. Loved that tuner though!
My favorite thing about your videos these days is I feel like I'm getting read one of my favorite books before I go to bed but also there's a massive rave.
certainly the Bob Ross of synthesizers 😂
Better have your big, fat pants on Jeremy. ;)
You both put some great jams inside the videos.

I passed on a Mavis for two hundred bucks last weekend and now RUclips is serving me up videos of them and I feel like an idiot. This is a great one!
For synth education that is also musically pleasing you are tip top Alex. This is the best Mavis video by far and I've watched every one I could find.
I’m just getting into modular and there’s a LOT of vids to choose from on here. Yours are by far the most informative for me as a beginner. Thanks man, I’m learning a ton off of you!
Thanks!
Wow! That pattern at 19:17 is gorgeous.
Your West coast Acid / B-Boy stuff gets my heart pumping! Awesome!
dude idk how can I express all of this but... you rock 🧡
Ooof, that timbre that comes in about 27:41 is freaking amazing. I'm definitely hooking Mavis up to DFAM when it shows up.
Thank you for making the best synth videos on the interwebs
love this demo.... I really super love what you were doing at about 19:40. Passing through that delay made it very dreamy...
saw a lot of tutorials on this beast but now i hear!!! its so good!
You're making me want one...
I really like your format. You show us how the damn thing works; then you actually play it. Nice, man.
This will definitely be the best video for Mavis. I want to do exactly what you did 😊
One of your best videos yet, Mr. Melodies! “Mavis Vs. Electro” would be a sick concept for a live set…
it's hard watching through your videos because after less than a minute you already have so much inspiration from them that you just wanna up and make some tunes
😘
The higher pitch stuff that starts at 31:45 is lovely, such a cool sound to end with
That’s due in part to the pedal! The Love Beams does a wicked pitch shifted delay
Nice one as always ! Pre-ordered when it leaked hahaha, can't wait to have a go at this little beast.
Using a stackable cable with that tuner was an inspired move... almost as inspired as using that multi-mode delay, filter and reverb pedal ;)
Great to see Love Beams in the mix
Any idea what the tuner is?! Looks great.
Korg DT-4!
@@mylarmelodies Ah, thank you! What a cool little tuner.
The wavefolder is a type of diode wavefolder, using a diode ladder going into a set of op-amps, but it’s completely wild and like nothing I’ve ever heard (or seen on an oscilloscope) before
Informative and delightful as always. And +1,000,000 for including Mavis Cruet.
heh heh, something for those of a certain generation and place 📺🧙♀️
Great video, it sounds awesome. I know me though I would make one bass patch I love and never touch it again for fear of losing the patch. 😅
Excellent demo! Sounds really dope!
Amazing Mavis! Thank you for another inspiring video
For all the criticisms you can level at Mavis, and there aren’t many, the bottom line is it sounds absolutely phat.
Well done Moog x
Thanks for the tutorial
Mavis is so much fun
Dude you have like a whole Electro Ep here :)
Great video! You are hilarious. You can convey joy with only your hands.
Nice indeed lol...badass demo!
Thank you, for the thoughtful rundown on the Moog Mavis.

it’s an easy beast with a wavefolder/s+h and made by moog and so i think it really just comes down to if that’s worth the !100 extra.
you can really make that thing sing. nice demo my dude.
that jam around 21minutes is proper fire, very much drexciya style 👏
excellent sum up!
Gnarly af… love your Moog reviews
That rave is so powerful...jaming skills 10/10
The only demo I really need
Sounding very Mylar. Nice.
Wow that's an amazing sound with the dfam
Oh wow
Very cool, sounding supet good
Nice 🔥🔥🔥🔥
My compliments to the chef
mavis + dfam + m185 + 880 = 🔥🔥🔥🔥💣💣💣💣

I have a few synths, but might have the most fun with my Werkstatt. I didn't feel GAS for this until I heard this video.
Damn you! 😉
You certainly squeezed some marvelous sounds out of that little box. Would love to have explored the patches in depth ... but it was what it was.
Thank you for this… I’m considering buying my first synth and this was a great video!!!
Great video! Thanks again...
Great sounding little synth. I like it. I'm tempted, even though I don't feel like I need it! :-/ Thinking of selling my Kilpatrick Phenol and filling the desktop space it occupies with a Mavis and Make Noise Strega! Erm ..............
I love the first jam when Mavis comes out of its shell, but the Mavis with the DFAM is really getting my attention now.
Banging vid as always x
Excellent video
Finally someone who knows what they're doing with this thing
It's like an upgraded Werkstatt and a similar price point.
DAMN IT!
Big sibling to the werkstatt. They gave it a volume knob, S&H, Wade folding and a real envelope
Came for the Moog, left with an Otis - Love beams
Aha, it’s lovely that and a pretty sick drive pedal though I couldn’t use that aspect here
Bang on about the burnt acid vibe of the filter. It's that acidic tinge that sounds most interesting about this. Plus the Moog Wavebender, which is what they should have called the synth. Or Wavejumper after the Drexciya track.
you had me at "burnt acid" ❤️
That Love Beams pedal is 🔥
Yeah it's lovely I must say, swirly odd delays and reverbs - it's also a pretty sick drive pedal
Serial # 00002 👌🏻
👌👌👌
Love it. The Moog people obviously love you.
I have one but I’ve been planning to move so it’s I assembled in my box’s , I had no idea it was capable of bass like that!
Nice one Alex
Amazing as always. Moments of Morton Subotnick masquerading as a humble product demo. Will you ever perform in San Francisco? I’d love to hear you live.
Thanks Michael - Some day, some day!
The best kind of filthy...OOF! Thank you!
earned another sub with this. fantastic video
Very cool sound example
I feel like one of the screaming girls at a 60 beetles concert when Alex releases a new video.
Wave folding is a nice touch 👽
Serial No. 00002. That's insane. I can almost guarantee you that No. 00001 is with Moog in Asheville.
Starting at about 21 1/2 minutes is what will be on my first generation Sony Walkman when I am free boarding (back country Moon boarding) just west of the Sea of Tranquility in that 1.5 km diameter bowl of Moondust that empties into a sweet Ridge run right into that little tavern on the backside of Reagan’s Brow. I’ll be banging Daphne Buffet Gates obviously, so it’ll all be comp. 1/6 earth G is hella sweet. Nice sounds.
So this is the Moog 0-Coast? I like it!
You could make a case for that I think, though it definitely still a bit more Easterly!
finally, moog volca 🙌
nice one cant wait to try it
Excellent video and sounds. Can’t wait to get my tiny little fingers on those knobs. Speaking of knobs, tell me about those DFAM knobs. I’d love to find a set of those.
@Finn Clarkson Thank you! Looking forward to tweaking these little things.
Yep Thonk Tall Trimmer Toppers! They fit on Mavis too
“ but will it aphex twin?” Yes my friend
genious as always!
Nice 2 hp panel you have there in the Eurorack case.
Thought you’d like that!!
@@mylarmelodies Yes I do.
Guthrie would be proud
Oh. Ryk sequencer. Nice
Cool, No 2.
What's that keyboard aroud 15:00?
the Willo the WIsp reference made my day. No really.
You’re the first to pick up on that! God bless Kenneth Williams
@@mylarmelodies but surely you're too young, Mr Melodies (if that IS your real name...)
Yes, I remembered Mavis the fairy from Willo the Wisp and thought, "Nice touch! But why the pink dog thing?" A brief Google image search later: "Ohhh!" Which now begs the question, did Moog name the Mavis in direct reference to Willo the Wisp?
How do you tell to a quantizer what notes would you like to hear? And what order...What is sequencing the notes? thx
Awesome video. I can’t be the only person who wants to know where to get those custom potentiometer caps? I need some of those babies.
Thonk tall trimmer toppers are an option! Alternatively I’ve fitted Davies clone knobs to mine (the ones with grub screws)
Before loopop? Blimey.
Great video 👍. It puts Mavis on my wishlist though at Canadian prices, she's _not_ a cheap date! She would definitely add to the capability of the Neutron-based sound engine I'm building for my Roland AE-30 wind synth.
An upgraded Werkstatt-01 with a proper patch bay and a waveshaper, you say? And it'll fit in a eurorack case? Don't mind if I do!
At 2:29 who makes the eurorack 808??!!
System 80!
what is that mat underneath? it looks awesome! reminds me of king gizzard
moog products usually come with posters like this (: part of moog experience, even my 3 tier stand came with one
@@SomeOne-pd6vm ahhh ok, thank you
Yep it’s the poster you get in the box! They’ve gone all in for psychedelic imagery in their promo materials it seems

How did you create this Eurorack case for all these? Could you make a video adding this and the acid Eurorack together in one case? Then show us so I can build my own 🙏
What up size is the row you have the Mavis and DFAM in. This is one of the reasons I am really considering getting the Mavis.
Get a powered (eg integrated power) 104HP case and it’ll take both! As it’s 44+60hp - or get a 6U 104HP case would be my recommendation so you have some space below/above for other modules
Is it a mylarmelodies video without a Turing machine or 2?
Btw, what's that little tuner? That seems visible and portable
Korg DT-4
@@MrMarcLaflamme thanks a lot!🙌🙏
@@els1f no prob!
am i imagining that or did you try what i recommended last time? :D i think i see calmed down hands haha
hah I haven’t yet but maybe I just was less hungry this time!!
@@mylarmelodies hahaha
What kind of pitch calibrator do you use in this video?

I do not need this. There are all kinds of ways that I do not need this. But holy moly it sound's so good that I need it.
Unexpected!
Are those aftermarket knob and switch-tips on the DFAM?
Yes - Tall Trimmer Toppers from Thonk!
If I didn’t already have a Werkstatt, I probably would. But that is a lot to pay for a waveshaper and a bigger patch bay, and its fitting in a modular case is not a selling point if you’ve not got the hp to spare. Loved that tuner though!
And a volume knob. Wish my werkstatt had that
We definitly need more machinedrum (seq + sounds) inside eurorack !
Can I get to know who's making these beautiful 808's?
