Music tech videos I watched 10 years ago: "So this is what MIDI is" Music tech videos I watch now: "So this is how you ping a schnickety bickety through a hyperpass triplefilter unit from soviet russia that has ghosts living inside it"
can''t wait for the future where we input audio waves in a particle matter materializer only to patch it through a backyard particle accelerator and record the output of it back into a 1980's neve.
The title and your comment have bumped my desire for a new roll from 0 to 100% in just a few seconds. It's been way too long since the last time (shortly before C-19 started) 😂
This video is of an artist who has honed his craft over decades and become comfortable in the mastery of it, being kind enough to open a window into techniques that must have taken years to perfect. Thank you for being so generous with your knowledge Hainbach
You bring back memories of me in my teens playing drum machines through a cheap computer speaker into my guitar pickups through pedals into my 4 track creating a feedback loop through the mixer. Hours of fun.
I didn't know that it was called Pinging. I've been doing this in my music now for 7 years by using the filters on the Air Music synth plug-in Vacuum. It's a great analog monosynth and the pinging you can get out of it's filters is lovely. I'm gonna try this out later with my Infinite Jets as the trigger going into the resonant LPF on Syntax Error. Thanks for sparking my inspiration. :)
Fascinating... it's like these artists that paint complex patterns with clever techniques and ingenious tools. Our host reminds me vividly of Bob Ross - by the skills, the ease of presentation, the benevolence and warmth in his voice... It's always good to see a man who loves his job.
This is the type of minimalist audio where everyone will hear something different as I could feel my mind, body, soul or whatever it may be, creating and overlaying it's own melodies on top of the rhythmic pinging and it often happened when there was a slight tonal change and the need to fill in the gaps the Juno wasn't filling. It's always a strange yet enjoyable aural experience and reminds me of times in the 90's I had with friends/associates who did minimalist techno music and everyone just carefully modified and jammed to the sound and then we'd find that 90 minutes had passed and it was all drug free. Good times and this was a nice reminder of starting with something like a 707 rimshot and it growing.
Hainbach!!! This is some of my favourite music I’ve heard you make. And the fact you document your process so well is a gift like no other. Thank you. Please don’t go anywhere
I am naught but a novice in electronic music, but the thought of having a kind of "living" modular system like this is very intriguing! Each gadget has its own personality that it seems to bring to the mix. Good stuff!
I can imagine Ralf Hütter and the late Florian Schneider doing this once - experimenting and creating music from noise. I know they moved towards digital but this reminded me somewhat their early works. I love your videos and you explain everything so well. Thank you!
I don't know how many times I've watched this video, but it's definitely more than a few. And here I am watching it again two years after it was new. I totally love these 'Hainbach techniques' videos 👍👌😘
I recently discovered this by experimenting in VCVRack. My background is in math, and I know there are lots of weird harmonics in gates and other steep/digital signals. I made a cool patch I have no idea how to use by filtering midi gates by their Voct. I love seeing a discovery I made by someone who actually knows they're doing 😀
That track at the end of your vid sound very gnarly & great in my Hainbach playlist to play at camp! Love the effects of pinging & makes for more gnarly sounds!🙂🙂🔊🔊🎵🎵
Your usage of space seems to me to be incredible. When I see that you’re in a pretty tight space with what looks like a whole 32 track mixer, your laptop, test bench gears, effects pedals, monitors, mics, and all the cameras and extra stuff you’re using for filming your video (that we will never see, since we are always watching and viewing through some part of the setups)? I’m baffled by your talent for managing the gear and keeping it from sprawling out and gobbling up the landscape. You really have a knack for keeping everything from getting too cluttered. I can’t even see my floor sometimes, and it’s humiliating! Thanks for sharing! Can you maybe follow up with Karplus-Strong!?
Just got round to watching this. Its an awesome tutorial. I've made a bit of a personal breakthrough with my use of the Field Kit FX recently, using it in a vaguely similar way, but I wasnt really aware of what mechanics were at play, I'd just stumbled on it accidentally. This explains it all and way more. Thanks, man. My Soma Ether samples being used as drum kits on a PO33 are gonna be way more mangled now :)
Using a cv manipulator for offsetting the resonance on the filter gets even more controle. I used cwejman in the past but a Rides in the storm SED is also very good! For offsetting i used a patching panda fippanda.
Great track in the end. I use this technique a lot with filters but I didn't know we can ping flangers. Thanks Hainbach for the inspiration 👍 and this sweater... 👌
Again, amazing. Thank you so much! I experiment with this, with VCV and it is possible to experiment with a simple DAW, actually. Works nice too. But, damn i love what you do with it! Beautiful!
This was great. Watching your videos is positively therapeutic - from your voice to your gear, the sounds, music and content make this one of my favorite channels ever!
Great video , gave it a go with MI ripples and maths works well .took it a step further and put an LFO pulse to the rise on ch 1 and a square on fall ch 1 and a cool little generative patch resulted. Thank you, Inspiring as usual .
Great piece in the end bringing everything together! I'm always very inspired by your stuff. I use feedback loops with my pedals since I saw some video where you touched on the topic, you demonstrated with a dirt cheap behringer vibrato as the lowest example, and it still sounded nice and usable. I do it with my cheap analog chorus, and sometimes I use Polara reverb but that one is out of control, specially in shimmer mode.
thanks for a dive inside the mind of Hainbach !! love to see such beautiful concepts explained in a digestible and enjoyable way, you've inspired me to get back into feedback synthesis, about to go chain a flanger into some percussion..... keep up the great work !!
I love the concept Technique-101 !....I'm sure that pinging 101 is just scratching the surface of the technique that comes from performing electronic instruments, and look forward to more! =)
Your Moogerfooger phaser almost led me to buying it but although I love moogerfoogers I ended up getting the Make Noise QPas instead, although not a phaser it does phaser type things and can have chord pings with the peaks. The Elektron Analog Rytm is also great for pinging.
I really really like how this sounds and I'd love to learn how to incorporate this into what I do, thank you very much for the guide! I'll have to watch it a few more times to figure things through
really enjoy watching your vids, so does my 4 year old daughter, shes crazy with your music.. so Thanks for taking the time to make the videos and share them.....
Thank you for this! This is one of those heavy inspiration videos where I had to pause in the middle to go see if I could patch up a ping in what I have, my MiniBrute 2s - turns out looping the AD envelope was the ticket, and pinging the filter by patching its output to the external audio in. (Though now I'm typing this, I also want to try the sequencer to make triggers via very short gates, and homebrew a gate-to-trigger circuit to just use LFOs.) Anyway, always educational, always a great watch.
When years ago i figure out this method on my good old electribes, my love for them explodes once more. Now i know how to call it xd Limiters and band pass filters are obligatory, one time i played that pinged sub bass on club sound system. WOW THAT WAS LIKE VOLCANO ERUPTION. it is very great tool in studio but on stage with hardware You must be more than 100% sure of sound you generate
An old vid I know, so I don't expect a response but... @6:00 in you just re-created the start if David Bowies Fashion song! so awesome to a Bowie superfan! ❤
Kudos, Genädige Herr, for a great show of the joys of pinging! One key piece of information was left out though: you can play around with pinging using just a single piece of hardware (or software). For example, all the Elektron instruments I know of sport pingable, resonant filters (that sound just as good, if not better, than the oscillators when put to musical use)!
Your english pronounciation has gotten so much better. I admit as a german, in the beginning i couldn't watch throughout bikos ze eksent wos so eperrent

We all evolve to become more perfect selves.
😂
@@Hainbach Next iteration is hooking it up to MIDI
It's true
can''t wait for the future where we input audio waves in a particle matter materializer only to patch it through a backyard particle accelerator and record the output of it back into a 1980's neve.
"Hi, I'm Hainbach and today I want to talk about sweaters."
His sweater collection is quite large...yet he's cold...so give the boy a break, yes?
@@brandonryanskala9288 of course. I tease out of sheer jealousy.
You forgot “it’s good to have you back” ;)
@@camhissey Good call :)
Some of the most unique funky sweaters on the tube. This man should receive a reward.
"The Joy of Pinging" Had to cut down, mate, was fucking with my serotonin levels

Our guy Hainbach has a good positive energy.
Get your tongue outta there, that's disgusting.
You bring back memories of me in my teens playing drum machines through a cheap computer speaker into my guitar pickups through pedals into my 4 track creating a feedback loop through the mixer. Hours of fun.
All this resonance is scratching an itch in my brain I didn’t know I had. Inspiring!
Should be called “Hainbach Flexes his rare gear for 18 minutes”
if we ignore his incredible knowledge, skill, and wholesome nature... the whole channel is exactly what you said, and i love it.
@@zhou_sei exactly he’s like the Bob Ross of radio music. If anyone else made this video it would have mad “I have a CS80” energy

it's a very common technique in science, to get the impulse response mathematically. Nice to hear it put into practice.
This technique is even cooler than that sweater. And that sweater is pretty damn cool.
I wish it was a hypercolor sweater, that would be so cool...
COOL SWEATER GANG YO!
Absolutely - get that jumper pinging I say that’s never been done before
Cooling sweetspot Then sweetening The coolspot. An this is the PING.
Fascinating... it's like these artists that paint complex patterns with clever techniques and ingenious tools.
Our host reminds me vividly of Bob Ross - by the skills, the ease of presentation, the benevolence and warmth in his voice... It's always good to see a man who loves his job.
That is all I watch on RUclips - people being passionate about their craft.
"Hi, I'm Hainbach, it's good to have you back" are the best nine words in the English language
Es könnte schön sein, ab und zu eine Einführung in Deutsch zu haben?
If there was a T-shirt with those words on it, I would order it.
The timbre of his voice mixed with those nine words is one of the most comforting things one can ever gear after a long day.

this is a different kind of pinging than what i had in mind

that is the sweetest, juiciest sweater i've ever seen
Pinging with Hainbish
70s 80s Jamaican dub employed this with the mixing board, filter, spring and echo
One of my favorite modes on the waldorf iridium is the resonance oscillator. You can get amazing pings with it.
I can imagine Ralf Hütter and the late Florian Schneider doing this once - experimenting and creating music from noise. I know they moved towards digital but this reminded me somewhat their early works. I love your videos and you explain everything so well. Thank you!
If i want to hear something different, inspiring , surprising, emotional and relaxing, i always listen Hainbach.
I was gutted when the track cut off at the end, so good and so inspiring!
the freq knob @8.55 has to be one of the most beautiful knobs ive seen!very cool video,too.
I could listen to an hour long version of this song and still be left wanting more.... ❤️ this!
The Feedback room was genius
Urgh, I want a play date with Hainbach! So many wonderful machines, such a lovely fella!
I don't know how many times I've watched this video, but it's definitely more than a few. And here I am watching it again two years after it was new. I totally love these 'Hainbach techniques' videos 👍👌😘

Very exciting episode, reframes the idea of a what a trigger can be. thanks, HAINBACH!
Brilliant! Thanks Hainbach. I’ve not been to Germany but can imagine tripping to this in a basement Berlin Club.
I love pinging so addictive for acid or trance music. Great work and great video's as usual. Take care Hainbach.
That's some mad audio science there! Going to have to try this with my modular and some outboard.
one of the very rare audio youtubers who is worth it's weight in gold. and no over-fake intro's... or ego. refreshing!
Thank you!
@@Hainbach no, no, no. thank you!!
This creates a whole bunch of new ideas in my mind! Amazing.
Incredible atmosphere at the end!
Finally, a name for the technique! I am obsessed with pinging as an alternative source of oscillation.
At start when I saw Heinbach's rainbow pullover I knew he would be inspired. This feedback/resonance trick technique was very interesting! thanks

15:52 I'm getting strong Jon Hopkins vibes there. Lovely video, thanks for your constant inspiration :)
RIP Mr Cwejman. That was beautiful. Reminded me of the transition between All Melody and #2 that Nils Frahm does.
karplus-strong synthesis BEST synthesis!!!
Looking forward to that video as well. 😃
These are a few of my favorite pings! (Sorry, it had to be said and I was the only one brave enough to say it). :)
I'm pickin' up what you're layin' down.
Name doesn't check out... good one Julie
Does the ping have low latency
When my DAW crashed.
When my chords clashed.
When my groove just lags.
I simply remember my favourite pings.
And everything's sounding rad.
@@adamsmith7058 nice!
This is the kind of video I go to this channel to watch! Very inspiring!
When you bring it all together at the end, wow! Such a great track. Absolutely gooooorgeous!
We need a online Hanibach Campus!😸😻
This helps me a lot understanding the gongue sections of the plumbutter. Thank you!
Hainbach-Loopop-RmR (not in particulary order) University?!?!? Would be great!
Dang. Those Cwerjman kick drums HIT.
Thanks to you I just incorporated an industrial drill press into my modular. It adds a great whirring sound to the system. Thank you, thank you.
Just got round to watching this. Its an awesome tutorial. I've made a bit of a personal breakthrough with my use of the Field Kit FX recently, using it in a vaguely similar way, but I wasnt really aware of what mechanics were at play, I'd just stumbled on it accidentally.

Please could you elaborate on what technique you're using with the Field Kit FX? I have one and would like to try it out. Thanks in advance.
Using a cv manipulator for offsetting the resonance on the filter gets even more controle. I used cwejman in the past but a Rides in the storm SED is also very good! For offsetting i used a patching panda fippanda.
Pinging in the UK means taking mdma. This made the video even more entertaining than it already was
Really love how dark the filtering is. What a beautiful track
Great track in the end. I use this technique a lot with filters but I didn't know we can ping flangers. Thanks Hainbach for the inspiration 👍 and this sweater... 👌
You truly do have the machine that goes Ping:) Thanks for another great vid.
Again, amazing. Thank you so much! I experiment with this, with VCV and it is possible to experiment with a simple DAW, actually. Works nice too. But, damn i love what you do with it! Beautiful!
First time in a while I’ve got absolutely lost in music. Thank you for that my friend.
The jam was beautiful!!!
Great work Hainbach, i just love watching you go through your process, thanks for a peek. Beautiful sounds as always.
You should do a video about how to power all that gear without and ground issues.
I love that bullfrog kick trick. One of my go-to ways to get a thumpy grumpy bumpy bullfrog boom.
When you think of feedback, you think of high pitched screeching from Marshall amp stack, nice to get more controlled and calm version of that
I really hope to see what you do with the new Moog filterbank. It’s going to be amazing, I know it already.
My favorite module to ping is the Erbverb. A slow random ping is the best. It's an incredible module!
Loving this. Thank you mate!
This was great. Watching your videos is positively therapeutic - from your voice to your gear, the sounds, music and content make this one of my favorite channels ever!
I still remember the sheer excitement of my first ping.
And turning my amp with spring reverb on and off just to get it to ping.
Great video , gave it a go with MI ripples and maths works well .took it a step further and put an LFO pulse to the rise on ch 1 and a square on fall ch 1 and a cool little generative patch resulted. Thank you, Inspiring as usual .

that has been quite a journey through technical possibilities. Thank you!
thanks! i had heaps of fun when trying this out. (which was really nice because i've been in a massive mental and musical slump)
4:02 yesss the Flanger Hoax! Still need to try out pinging it on mine.
Track is amazing.
The true art of lofi (not to use the word "noise"). Mesmerizing!
thanks for a dive inside the mind of Hainbach !!
