TO ME, Microcosm is just ear candy - It's takes everyones input and makes it all the same. It will go down as "SHIMMER" of the 2020's". It's like you spent 5 hours on a gourmet meal and then put sugar all over it. There are RUclips videos with people playing a $500 Mother 32 and a Microcosm, and others with $20,000 worth of synths and a Microcosm, and they sound the same. "Make me an ambient artist by spending $400". I personally prefer it removed from the equation because it's a canned combination of effects coloring the sound, rather that just some carefully selected light effects to enhance. It has a unmistakeable trademark sound due to it's combination design. It's not an instrument but people use it as one. THAT BEING SAID, I do mean no offense to the video creator here because he has some great content on his channel.
Hey mate,new subscriber here,from Australia, I'm sure you have been through this a few times,but can you please just give me the short version; what is the deal with your right hand on the bass, I've never seen anyone play like that before, I play the same 6 string Dingwall & I am most intrigued as to why you play like that??Cheers mate! 🎼🎵🎶🎸🤘
Honestly it happened through many iterations of being frustrated with standard 2-finger right hand technique. Also trying to emulate other 'alternative' right hand techniques with different degrees of success. The real push for my current technique happened when I switch to playing lots of chords on my six string. I wanted a more seamless way to go from single string sixteenth notes to playing full chords. So I tried emulation Matt Garrison's and Dominique Di Piazza's right hand techniques, and also Damian Erskine's. My right hand technique is a strange hybrid of those mixed with some classical guitar techniques.
Love the use of the microcosm with all this stuff
The microcosm is the perfect counterpart to synths.
Totally is, I really need to get one
