Incredibly professional production quality and great information-was shocked you don’t have more subscribers. Subscribed and major props, keep up the good work man!
Thanks very much! I've only just started the channel really so I'm still building an audience - very grateful for this sort of feedback and it all helps to spread the word. Cheers! :)
Quickly becoming my favourite youtube eurorack channel. Given the ubiquity of euro on youtube these days it's refreshing to hear good music as well as useful information. Cheers ✨👌
Thanks a bunch for this one. I've got an Antumbra Rot-8, and I'd struggled to get anything interesting out of it. Your video helped me breathe some new life into it.
Great to hear! That Rot-8 looks very similar to the Moskwa in a lot of ways. If I was a bit more confident with SMD soldering I might even try to build one. Maybe one day :)
Eurorack is funny in this way. It's hard to get until it isn't. What I mean is that I don't understand how something I now find easy, I struggled so hard to get, and now what I don't get, I will probably find equally easy in the future.
Please do an overview video of the Moskwa II! I bought one because of this video and while I'm getting a lot out of it, I'd love to hear your thoughts on it all. You've been a truly amazing teacher Tom, thanks for everything you do!
Thank you! I may revisit the Moskwa II (and Ostankino) in a future video 😀 In the meantime there’s a great overview video by Red Means Recording, if you haven’t already seen it…
I have both the Behringer 1036 S&H module as well as the Erica Synths S&H/Noise EDU kit that I built. I'm assuming the Behringer S&H module is the one that I'd be able to use for the "two for the price of one" method in your video? I love the idea of complexity off of single sources. I pretty much have drum patterns from single gates going to clock dividers down, but the single sequence to two (or more) voices has me intrigued! I'd gladly subscribe to a patreon page if you went into specific detail on each of your tutorials and provided graphs/patch layouts. You definitely have an immense amount of potential for your channel, and I hope to see your sub count quadruple by end of 2023 at the very least!
I'm not too familiar with those specific units but I think you could use either of those to achieve something similar, tbh. It's just a matter of using an S&H, triggered by a different clock to the main sequence, to 'grab' notes from the sequence and hold them. And thanks for the kind words - no immediate plans for a Patreon, mainly cos I don't have too much spare time outside of the day job, but it's definitely food for thought!
+1 on the Moskwa expander - it's brilliant. Precision adder's a must, as you mention. Edited to add - some really lovely sounds here, great patches and a fab springboard for ideas. Thanks!
Thanks for this video, Tom! Been using a couple of different step sequencers for a while and have already tried some of these techniques, but there are some really great ideas here which hadn't occurred to me. Great tutorial!
Would still like to see you Patch these as your process of clock dividing sets up alternative Counter Rhythms Superb demos TOM of creative explorations Loike it, Noice 👍🆒🎶🎶🕸⚡️🌟🌟🌟
Thanks Josh! Yeah, logic is something I’m keen to explore in more detail. Love the idea of taking simple ‘seeds’ and combining them into strange new things 😀
Great tutorial, thank you! A quick question about the Moskwa. I have a Tirana and when you deactivate a step, it stops the gate from being fired for that step, but the CV output level still changes to that step's setting while the sequence is on the deactivated step. Is that the same with the Moskwa?
Glad you enjoyed it! You can actually choose the behaviour on the Moskwa - there’s a ‘CV hold’ option in the global options which will hold the previous CV value when a step is deactivated. I normally keep that option on but it’s good having the choice…
I didn’t demo this in this video but on the Moskwa II you can create a ‘custom sequence’ - it can be up to 256 steps long, but for those steps you can only choose from the 8 steps in the main sequence. (E.g. you could have a custom sequence that uses steps 1,2,3,2,6,4,8,1,1,6,2,2,7 etc up to a max length of 256). I’m probably not explaining it very well - see p7 of the manual 😀
it would be very nice if you could curb your gallop language a bit so that you don't have to watch the video 5-6 times to understand everything. Precisely because there are also non-English speaking viewers.

what fun to return to this a year later, and find all your newer videos!

@@TomChurchill Oh my god, thank you for the tip and link, watching now!!!
Your videos always inspire. Thank you for the time you put into this work, and the invaluable education!
Cheers!
Awesome video Tom. Thanks for fixing my Rings on ModWiggler ;)
The most actionable modular tutorial I've seen.
Some great but really simple ideas here.
I'm really looking forward to your future videos.
Thanks Ben! Appreciate that, and really glad you found it useful 👍

Cheers, glad you enjoyed! I picked up the expander eventually, so perhaps a follow-up video is on the cards 😉

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it, and always great to hear it’s sparked some new ideas :)
Just discovered your channel Tom, really clear explanations and some nice melodies casually created along the way. Good work ;-)
Cheers! Hope all’s well with you guys - catch up soon hopefully!
Some cool tips, good musical examples and a nice healthy succulent. Ticking all the boxes there 🙂👍
Thanks Jim! 😀
Cheers Tom! Some really handy tips there, and very clearly demonstrated.
Nice one Alan - glad you enjoyed it!
Crackin vid. Waiting on Moskwa and Ostankino to arrive. Now super excited. Nice one.
wow some great ideas here; can't wait to try some
Excellent stuff Tom!
Cheers mucker!
Great! Now I have to explore how you did that :-)
Great video, Tom.
expander takes it to the next level
I can imagine - it's on my shopping list! :)
@@TomChurchill great video btw! hope you'll make another one once you get the expander.
Nice vid Tom-Love from norken
Nice one! Hope you’re well 😀
Fantastic video! thank you for the great ideas.
Howdy from Texas! Brilliant tutorial and very well presented! Sub'd.
Howdy from Scotland! Glad you enjoyed it - thanks :)
Top informations here ❤
Nice dense rundown of those techniques.
Thanks!
Thx for sharing :-) We see us, greetings!!!
Thanks! :)
Great video, got some ideas to try out!
Brilliant video
Two for the price of one was a great idea with the S&H a different clock div.
Would still like to see you Patch these as your process of clock dividing sets up alternative Counter Rhythms
Superb demos TOM of creative explorations Loike it, Noice 👍🆒🎶🎶🕸⚡️🌟🌟🌟
Nice ideas. Thanks for sharing. Subbed
Cheers!
Thank you Tom!
My pleasure! :)
Very nice, thank you
Very nice ideas. Inspiring! Also curious about creating use of combining simple sequences into much more complex ones with boolean logic.
Thanks Josh! Yeah, logic is something I’m keen to explore in more detail. Love the idea of taking simple ‘seeds’ and combining them into strange new things 😀
@@TomChurchill You're welcome, and looking forward to it! I'm in the middle of listening to "Patched Up" as I type this; fantastic stuff!
@@josh_dick Thanks for the support - really appreciate it!
I like, I comment, I subscribe. I am RUclips and so can you.
Your a beast
So many excellent ideas 💡!!! Thanks a lot for this.
Glad you liked it! :)
That rings chords sounds better than the plaits one lol

Read that this can be up to 256 steps? I guess by chaning patterns? Are you showing this somewhare?

@@TomChurchill ok! Thanks for explaining and for your great content!
how do you connect volca to your eurorack
I just send clock to it from Pamela’s New Workout to sync it, nothing beyond that really…
it would be very nice if you could curb your gallop language a bit so that you don't have to watch the video 5-6 times to understand everything. Precisely because there are also non-English speaking viewers.
You can slow the video down in the settings.
