Moog Minitaur + Arturia Minibrute CV sequenced by Elektron Analog Four
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 окт 2024
- Analog Four is sending 2 separate CV sequences to Moog Minitaur and Arturia Minibrute. www.elektron.se...
The audio from Minitaur and Minibrute is processed inside the Analog Four in 2 separate channels. With this setup, you can sequence, automate and processes each synth individually while also having 2 extra Analog Synth tracks on the Analog Four to satisfy your ultimate analog synth wet dream.

i actually just bothered to create an account just so i could say how much i enjoyed this....dark moody deep awesome
There is only one CV track, but you can program notes in the FX track as well and use them for the CV outs. (These notes are not used for the FX, unless you use envelopes to modulate FX parameters.)
Each of the four CV outs can use any of the six sequencer tracks as source for the CV signals or gates; The CV track, the FX track, or Synth Track 1-4.
the effects in the a4 are surreal at times...really takes it to a new level.
I am just stepping into the world of synthesizers. This is very cool. I closed my eyes and listened to this and for second, it felt like the world slowed down.
I keep coming back to this five years after you posted it. Great stuff. Makes me want to add a Minitaur and Analog Four to my setup.
Still coming back
@MrDataline Year 6. If you're still around, any objections to me downloading the audio to this and putting it on my phone? Just for my own enjoyment. Or is there a place I could pay for it? Happy to throw you some money for this.
man this is so god damn great. i've heard and watched great jam sessions over the years (and recorded some of my own), but this the ONE that kills it the most for me -- from start to finish!!
man, thank you so much for sharing!
i`ve been doubting, but now i know - minibrute will be my first synth
I think its amazing how much work goes into just producing a beat in a sequencer. Nice work. :D
Awesome beats dude!! I recently purchased a Mini Brute and realized that the full potential of this monophonic device is only realized when hooked up to other complimentary instruments...obviously the Moog Taurus and this beat machine are just two of those. Thanks!!
You create a lot of sound with only 3 machines, nice job.
"Only" 3 machines? Have you seen the specs on the Analog Four alone? :)
This is not only the best analog performance I've seen but also the best hardware video I've seen on RUclips well done man great musicianship and creativity. You've almost convinced me to go analog. Maybe next item on your list would be a jomox analog bass drum synth just triggered by your elecktron? Any I've subbed man keep em coming
Where is a dataline masterclass??? I mean...he was the dude that got me into elektron and the music culture itself...god bless this man for being his art and vision 🤠
I really enjoyed watching you shape the sounds. Nicely done, sir.
Gr8 track, I really like the way u use the box(es) to think outside the box!
This is sick. Waiting on an analog four and watching ALL the videos😂😂😂
Good to see that it really takes some knob fiddling efforts to get the groove goong.
They don't "do" anything different however, what is different is you get a hands on approach to generating sequenced sounds. For me this kind of music making is a whole lot more fun than clicking a mouse on virtual knobs. The analogue 4 can be used for a more "live" type of performance.
Thanks man, your feedback is really useful, so based on what you're saying and plus the fact that Minibrute is more handy for live performances so it should be the first choice among these three.
epic journey in tweaking and working the groove.
You must have helped Elektron sell so many boxes. I hope they recognise that!
Yeaa he works and is their main rep 😂
I just found this. It may be 9 years old, but it still rules! 🤩
gnarly setup with all the latest gear!
minibrute? check
microbrute? check
monotribe? check
elektron A4? picking one up today!
It's on now.
(good sounds as usual)
+Matt Greer dont forget to change your name to Matt Gear :P
FantasticPyroclastic haha. That's what my buddy calls me.
ahahahahahahah
Minibrute is fantastic!!! You can't go wrong with it.
can you explain the exact connection between analog four and minibrute?
analog four cv gate out (DC or BA?) to minibrute cv gate in? or viceversa?
just found this and WOW! great flow great sounds
Really digging that set.. Thanks so much for posting!
I haven't but I want too... the Minitaur is SO nice... a friend brought over the Elektron Analog Four and I was blown away... another friend has the MiniBrute and it's HAWT!. MS-20 mini... gotta get that too!
This kicks ass man. Been watchin a few of your vids. Nice work! =]
really brutal ! i like this kind of sound/music/beats a lot.
I like that you show every step of your work, but still feel the video is a tad long. Once you get into your groove though, man it is so good!
fucking great at around 23 minutes
YES
you're completely right, although I am a producer but I do live performances and MS-20 would be a pain in the ass I guess since it doesn't seem very touring-friendly!
thanks dude for your great help.
Awesome mastery of the machine!
I'm late to the party here but this is seriously good shit. I could listen to this a lot.
THAT JAM is redonkullous! Love it man!
I think the MiniBrute should be cheaper than the MS-20 (mini or otherwise). I'd suggest that you think about how/where you're going to be using your synth. It'd make sense to get the more portable MiniBrute if you intend on playing live shows. The MS-20 mini on the other hand (although already significantly smaller than the MS-20), is still rather big. So, if you're more of a producer, I'd say go with the MS-20, but if you're a frequent live performer, go for the MiniBrute :)
Hi there, I just got my analog four and I absolutely adore it, it's my first piece of elektron gear and now I'm hooked. I have a good amount of synths (nord g2, tetra, minibrute) I need something for drums, would you suggest a machinedrum, or an octotrack to use samples I already have and loops I make with drumazon, nithonat etc?
Excelent work. Some really inspiring moments, too.
jenk could i ask you how everything is set up? I thought you were using CV/gate from one stereo pair to the minibrute and one to the minitaur, but wouldnt that trigger them together? Then I thought I saw you using P locks on the minibrute filter, so Im just wondering what the setup is. Great video, and great tracks also. Getting my octatrack in a few days, and got my A4 a few weeks ago, and it was pretty much your videos that peaked my interest in the elektron stuff so thank you!
Minitaur has awesome bass!
This is great! Thanks for posting, much love for the CV Analog way!
Excellent video, sir. It would be interesting to know your CV connection set up, and also, how do you route the MB and the Minotaur to tracks 1 and 2? Please post more vids....amazing sounds!
Thank you for creating this.
i love the sound of the Af..i just wonder if the work flow is easy
Say this for the guy. He does know his gear. Excellent video. Very cool.
Very nice work sir. I just found you on Soundcloud.
This is great.. I really miss my analogue set up and studio.. I used to play for hours just like this. that was back in 1984.. then up til two years ago when i sold the lot to move to the USA ... I still have my EDP WASP tho .....
I just looked and a set up like this is about $2000... hmmm I think i might push it one day
very cool jam session
These are some phat beats man, keep up the good work!
This sounds REALLY nice. Good job.
If this was an EP/album, i'd buy it!
On 11:00 the sound is absolute great!
This is super cool. I love my minibrute, and am considering an A4... Pretty much sold. Sweet jams. :)
Brilliant track man
i have the moog & the A4 and idont seem to get how u could send the notes to the moog? whhats the secret or do u have a good refernce site ho does explaint it.
nice tune by the way.
cheers
hey Cenk, what kind of cables do you use to connect CV from A4 to Minibrute? thanks for all your inputs and keep the sound going!
i've been looking for an explanation for this for a long time. Minibrute sends and accepts CV at 0-10V, while the Minitaur accepts CV at 0-5V. Can the A4 CV be changed per output??
use the CP-251
it has 2 ATTENUATORS - To reduce the strength of control signals, enabling you to adjust the strength of an effect
All Elektron gear can sequence external synths? Can you please advise where in the documentation of the Analog Four we can see it? Thanks!
Not all, Monomachine sure can do through dedicated six poly midi tracks.
With analog four you can do it only using CV outputs, you don't have midi tracks on it.
If you want to use with midi only equipped gear you need a CV to Midi converter (that's for analog four, not for monomachine).
With RYTM you can't sequence external gear, don't know about machinedrum as i don't own it.
Analog four manual here:
www.elektron.se/sites/default/files/products/files/Analog-Four_Manual_OS1.1.pdf
great tunes. You are filtering the pants out of the minibrute for bass duties and using the minitaur for high beeps which is unusual. For newcomers trying to decide on synths I doubt this gives them a clear example of what the minibrute or minitaur are capable of or designed for. Your analog 4 ms20 video though is a different matter... Anyway, great work still.
Andy HS did a very good question. Your answer is interesting point of view but ... its not only fun . Maybe Andy wants more than fun. A VST could give better results , it depends of what kind of sound Andy wants to create. Playing with hardware knobs is very fun , that is true but its not all. Put a VST inside that hardware and play with the knobs like in these analog machines. Could be very funny and even with best results.
siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiick !!!!! in the AMAZING sense ... very nice dude
the only thing i'm missing is the minibrute.. sounds great man good job...
man this shit is so fuckin rad
raoul duke makin beats... NICE ! ;)
Mr. D - Would you be willing to explain a little about your CV set up via the A4? You are using 2 A4 tracks to control each the MiniBrute and the Minotaur, yes? And it looks like you are controlling the Brute's pitch and what else? Thanks for the terrific music!
love this one.. I dream of synths every damn night.
13 min in totally reminds me of Pryda, really good stuff
So how does this work? He has the mid out from the minibrute to the midi in on the Analog four and then midi out from the analog four to the minotaur?
good work there! nice sounds
Красавец то какой !!! Молдца !
Just awesome. Dude, you rock !
Incredible! You and kink should team up!
mmm im guessing with the parameter you could totaly build a somehow basic 2-part analog drum synth in just one track, right? Like having an envelope opening a sine wave and then another trigger opening some noise?
do you think that a couple of MIDI controllers (one just knobs / faders and another for keys) used with a tweaked DAW could work as a cheap alternative?
Cool, but what does this/these machines do that the multitude of software synths (vst/VSTI) don't? Sorry for the noob question but I'm just getting into music production :)
Help needed:
I'm not sure in this price range shall I pick up MiniBrute or MS-20 (or even Moog Minituar)? in terms of sounds I feel that MiniBrute and Minitaur is more up to date, but honestly MS-20 is very deceiving.
so which one would you (anyone) suggest?
@MrDataline - Love your sounds man! I have been trying to decide on a hardware sequencer for my rig for a while. I have been looking at the Elektron gear a lot. But I don't know which one is best for me. I have a couple analog monos and currently integrate into my DAW. I need a quality sequencer primarily, but effects and oscillators are a big bonus obviously. I read a few negative reviews on A4 about limitations, MIDI mostly, but i also hear so much good. Octatrack, or A4 for your money? Cheers
I'm giving a seal of approval
Am I to understand that there are 2 CV channels with 2 inputs? So you get 6 channels then? please explain if I see it wrong....
Nice work man, thanks for sharing.
Question.
If i want exactly(!) the same quality of rev, chorus and delay as step triggered p-locks in a sequence, but the equipment is MIDI capable...will the Octatrack do the job? I need the sequenced power with the 3 effects used. I wonder, if programmed exactly like in the A4...will the Octatrack's FX result be the same(!) as shown here or will it just be comparable?
great!...so: from the A4 to the minibrute and minitaur(via MIDI) and back from them into the A4 via audio/ine in??
@ 24:15 get hella funky with that bassline! love it
Nice! Hey I'm new to using synthesizers, so this might be a dumb question. With the moog minitaur do you need another keyboard to control it? It looks like you do.
Yeah, you need to have some way to send midi to it.
Thanks!
You could even sequence it with a computer if you don't have a dedicated sequencer, or play with a qwerty keyboard if you don't have a spare midi keyboard. :D (not that you'd want to, but you could!)
TheSandvichTrials It's CV/gate here, I believe. Not MIDI.
theeltea In this case I think you're right, because he's using the Analog 4, but the minitaur accepts MIDI IN too.
How are you sequencing both the minitaur and the minibrute with only only one CV channel??? please show us
i suppose the answer is that analog four have 2 cv channels , each for one synth , not sure .
he will show you this now
the elektron has multiple channels
how should I set the A4 for the MOOG Minitaur ?????
Very good job!
wow sounds great. im curious, what is your routing? thought there was only 1 CV track on A4.
Hey can anybody explain how to set up the A4 to send sequence information via gate/cv to the minibrute? I've got a 1/4 inch to 1/8 inch cable running from the gate out on the A4 to the minibrute. Do I need a midi cable as well?
this is so fucking awesome. thanks for inspiring me!
Super good!
I am so jealous right now.
I have played with it a little bit in Guitar Center, indeed it's amazing but I never touched MS-20.
Hiermee mogen ze mij wel een jaartje opsluiten,daarna ga ik op toernee : )
Hi, first of all congratulations, obviously a great job, just one question, the drum machine where does come from ? I´m asking this beacuse you said that both synths in 2 separate chanels and there´s 2 tracks more ...
ohh maybe friom software sequencer ?
Thank you !!
I think the drums are synthesized using the minitaur and minibrute. they sound like deep sines or filtered squares even. except the snares are just white noise with an adjusted ADSR.
That's just my theory. I dont know for sure what he did. Hope this helps.
Ok thanks mate !!
all drums come straight out of the A4 where he uses his 2 other tracks
Well done. Bravo!
So the parameter locks happen for voices on brute + moog + all 4 voices on A4?
Very nice!
I used to own a bunch of synths that I sold off and I'm now currently only using software.

I find software a lot more productive, but I like fiddling with hardware though ;)
