Description : One of the most exciting areas in creating music is modular synthesis, where in order to create your own instrument you need to connect the fundamental blocks of the synthesizer to each other. In this course, music industry veteran and synthesizer designer Chris Meyer, to teach you how to make modular synthesizer patches so that you create your own sounds, uses the Arturia Modular V program – a realistic emulation of the original Moog modular synthesizer – 60s and 70- x years last century. Chris begins with the basics of how harmonics and sound work, as well as how to connect modules together. Further, he individually considers the main modules, explaining the differences between the forms of waveforms, types of filters and further, he shows how to use them in a musical context. The third part describes advanced approaches such as frequency and amplitude modulations, as well as how to use effects and advanced filters in Modular V from Arturia.
Description : One of the most exciting areas of music creation is modular synthesis, where you get to interconnect the fundamental building blocks of a synthesizer to create your own instrument. In this course, the music industry veteran and synth designer Chris Meyer uses the Arturia Modular V software — a realistic emulation of the original Moog modular synths of the 1960s and 1970s — to teach you how to “patch” a modular synth to create your own sounds . Chris starts with the fundamentals of how harmonics and sound work, as well as how to connect the modules together. He then goes through the main modules individually, explaining the differences between oscillator waveshapes, filter types, and more, while demonstrating how to use them in a musical context. The third chapter teaches advanced techniques such as frequency and amplitude modulation, as well as using the effects and advanced filters in Arturia Modular V.
