This sounds amazing And the narration is full of gold to sample “I just kinda banged the box” Lotta gems Great radio voice Gonna try this technique on the microcell later on
OMG! I just got into modular and I also just recently bought the exact same Kalimba (same color everything), within the last month and RUclips found this great video for me magically. Definitively stealing my idea that I just invented after you!
Fantastic usage of the contact mix! Also, I couldn't help but notice your very clean 6U rack mount cases. Did you build those enclosures yourself? Looking to find a rack mounting solution for my 4x tiptop ears.
Thanks! These are the rack cases - sadly I don’t think I’d have done such a good job if I’d tried to make them myself 😂 www.nutshellstudio.co.uk/product-page/6u-dual-angle-desktop-rack
@@TomChurchill Thanks for the link! These are fabulous. They fit 84hp rails without a fuss, I assume? Are you using Behringer rails, Tiptop, or some other maker?
@@parristaylor Yep, they’re standard 19” so they’re ideal for 84HP rack-mount cases like the Tiptop Happy Ending. I’m using the Behringer versions but they’d be perfect for Tiptop as well.
TOM as always ideas you have that just Gel, nothing over complicated , a few Elements that Morph into a cohesive whole NOICE LOIKE and Happy New Year of creative processes 👁🕸⚡️🔱❄️🆒🌈👍🎶🎶🎶🌟🌟🌟⛄️
Happy New Year Tom. Thanks for this growy thing and for all of your great content. one question though: That thing you do at 8:45, turning the pitch down, is this a monsoon thing? I ask because I got a monsoon that I always put the pitch down on, thought it was faulty, maybe it is?
Hey Jonas! Thanks :) I'm not totally sure about the Monsoon pitch thing - it's only an issue when I use the V/oct input, and I *think* that's because Monsoon expects voltage in the range of -5V to +5V and equates 0V with the centre position of the pitch knob, i.e. 0V is no change, negative voltage reduces the pitch and positive voltage increases the pitch. I usually feed it only with positive voltage from the Beatstep Pro/Keystep/Stages/Step 8 etc, so I have to pitch down in Monsoon to compensate, if I want to play any notes below the original pitch. If I play the C below middle C from the Keystep and connect that to the V/oct, for example, that's a voltage of +2V, so it would increase the pitch by two octaves. If I turn the pitch on the Monsoon down two octaves, this 'cancels it out'. Does that make sense?
Nah, it’s probably just the fact that I’ve heavily boosted a super-quiet signal, twice, and run it through a bunch of modules, so it’s not the cleanest signal path. Never had a noise issue with regular signals.
Inspiring and superbly explained- thank you 🙏🏻
Cool jam!
This sounds amazing
And the narration is full of gold to sample
“I just kinda banged the box”
Lotta gems
Great radio voice
Gonna try this technique on the microcell later on
I did just buy a kalimba after watching this! Great video Tom :)
Haha, nice one! Hope all’s good with you :)
Woow soo good 🎉thank youuu
7:27 “It’s more fun just to whack it.” (Teehee.)
Oh ya. and I need a new module now. Thanks... Thanks a lot
Cheers Tom, great video and happy new year to thee ✌️
Sounds amazing as always man!
Thank you sir! Have a great new year and catch you soon 😀

Love this lo-fi track. Looking forward to trying this out with my kalimba! Happy new year and keep these great videos coming!!
wow..what an amazing array of sonics....kalimba is fun too...mine has the contact installed so i can plug straight into an fx pedal or amp

@@TomChurchill Yes absolutely! Thanks
what cases are those that have the behringer rack ears/rails in them? i cant find something like that anywherw
The rack cases are these: www.nutshellstudio.co.uk/product-page/6u-dual-angle-desktop-rack
Is that loud hiss coming from the Behringer power supplies ?
Nah, it’s probably just the fact that I’ve heavily boosted a super-quiet signal, twice, and run it through a bunch of modules, so it’s not the cleanest signal path. Never had a noise issue with regular signals.
@@TomChurchill ok thanks
Was thinking about getting the go case
