Awesome! I've been waiting for a good tutorial on this. I hope you guys can cover more of the Arturia synths in the future

[@mariosimic4175]

great for getting aquainted with it... this is a massive synth but quite specific. tnx!

[@futurythm_]

Just what I needed. Thank you so much!

[@alexisromano7603]

thanks for the video, I have a question, can i synchronize the bpm of the sequencer with ableton ? thanks!!

[@OldSchoolVisions]

if i wanted to trigger the sequencer only when I'm holding down my midi keys, how would i go about that. So it's not continuously giving audio out?

[@JackMyersPhotography]

Does PBMS have an entire stand-alone course by Mr. Herbert on the use of the Arturia ARP 2600 V3?

Great

[@Vlessgorian]

I have a little question. When I disconnect the cable from the MOD IN of the LFO, it immediately begins controlling the frequencies of the 3 VCOs, making them glide up and down. How can I solve this? the only way I found is to keep the MOD IN connected but then I'd need a MOD wheel to control the LFO. Is there a knob maybe I'm not seeing or something? thanks a lot and great video!! it's helped me sooo much, I love your channel.

Did you lower the vibrato depth?

[@FluidITGuy]

I don't like the clock freq button. It doesn't seem to have a way to sync by 1/32, 1/16, 1/8 and so on. Which means I can't really sync to host. Did I miss something or is this a correct statement?

[@OilRacki]

I am not at a PC with the ARP 2600 installed right now, but there is a tempo sync switch nearby the clock that isn't labeled. It's to the right a bit of Clock Freq, and very inconspicuous. I'm not sure but I think if you move clock freq now with that toggled on, the tip in the bottom left should give you an indication of how the sequencer is slicing the tempo up (i.e. in 8ths, 16ths, quarters, etc..). I haven't actually looked at this tip yet, myself, as I just found out from this tutorial that the tip exists.. lol (I'm new to the ARP 2600). But I think the combo of all that should do what you need..?

[@isher9035]

@@OilRacki Yes, that's how it works with 2600 V. If the ARP 2600 plugin from Arturia scares people away, KORG has ARP Odyssey in their legacy collection (which was more or less the 2600 scaled down without the patching), and it is a pretty good and useful plugin too. I use both.
