I've heard wierd noises in this vid. Could you please let me hear music that you have made with those modules? Could you please explain how buying a modular synth would enable me to become a better musician or to make better music? Could you please explain why I should spend much more money for what remains basically a monophonic instrument without a keyboard and without patch memories, made from a bunch of pieces which do not form a coherent whole, than for a couple of powerful, flexible and consistent polysynths like e.g. a Hydrasynth or a Peak or a Prophet 5 or a Montage (you name it)? Could you please explain why I should painstakingly record my music one note at a time like W.Carlos did 60 years ago rather than playing the keyboard using my both hands? Thanks.

Just picked one up! Thanks so much for the overview! 💪🏽

the korg sounds like a tamagotchi

This is by far my favorite description of features, and demonstration of creative patch ideas. After watching your video, I am much more likely to add the Spectravox to my Moog stack. Will make sure to use your affiliate link, when I do 🎶🔥

The second Strega patch sounds like alien chatter from District 9. Love it! Well done.

the wonky drum machine is fantastic!

Very nice introduction, but don't forget the DIY route too! It's cheap, you learn loads, and it's an immensely satisfying process. Building your own modules means you get to customise everything to your liking, and even turn your own module concepts into reality. Great video though, and this comment certainly isn't a complaint, just a mention of another great way of getting started with modular synths!

Meh

That stuff looks CPU intensive sa mère.

It sounds like you’ve got a faulty one to me

Just bought one on the back of this- so kudos to you and thanks

impressive experiments. very expressive. but what is the goal of your studies?

its defo not as cool as mother or dfam

I felt like I was dropped on a planet of R2-D2s

You have Nice hands, Sarah.

When you say vocoder, i imagine Kraftwerk. I do not hear that kind of sound

This is great instrument. But, not for 700$. Maybe 200

hoho that shit is random af, i love it :D

why use cheap studio monitors for high end studio gear it makes no sense if you have the money to buy expensive synths why cheap out on studio monitors please explain ?

19:33 Expand upon this by using an 8 stage Analog Shift Register instead!

Seems to share some DNA with the Swarmatron?

Impressive work of art, moving and lots of special trumpet techniques 🎶🎺👌

Hi Sarah, this was a very well-explained and demonstrated video. Thank you!

Great video! Great synth!

What a killer synth!

24:32 Some gassy synth

Excellent video. Easy to understand, straight to the point and lots of audio examples. Well done.

Great concept and fantastic results

Great run down Sarah, thanks!

Thanks for such a detailed tutorial, well done. One suggestion, is if you widen your shot that shows the cable connections it would be so helpful. It's funny, I see this on a lot of tutorials, the image is cropped to exclude the cabling. Probably assumed that everybody knows the routing? Thanks again.

More modem sounds

Great demo ! Amazing patches at the end too 🙌🙌🎶

You could be a hand model, you know.

I find the Voltage Lab 2 to be a fascinating and visually appealing synthesizer. However, I haven't heard too many good musical patches from people who are far more skilled than I am. This makes me wonder what an amateur like me would be able to achieve with it, besides producing terrible sounds. While I am intrigued by the new types of synthesis it offers, it doesn't seem to produce traditional, harmonic tones. I suspect that some of the underlying technology has been explored before but wasn't widely adopted because it wasn't found to be useful in a musical fashion. I want to like this device and would love to own one, but considering its price and the sound output, I'm uncertain about its practical use. If I can't create convincing music with it, I question the value of having it, as it might end up sitting idle after producing some initial bleeps, bloops, and scratches.

Why not a lush reverb instead of echo and delay

At least u can buy one The OG one was kickstarter only .. I’d love one But not gonna sell a kidney for one on the used market

5:49 “That sounds like an R2 unit in there”

Great recomendations -- especially using VCV to learn the fundamentals for free.

Thx, what happens when you play a saxophone, flute or tagelharpa?

Hello and thank you for an inspiring video!! Im a beginner and using vcvrack 2 free and having an issue with the VCO/VCO-1 am/ring setup. Im only hearing the pitch tone from the VCO? could it be related to the editions, vco-1 vs vco? Regards Fredrik

great overview of a very interesting synth. Thank you!

The combination of your lovely voice and the synths' gnarly screams was wonderful again. I think you showed us ideas that not even Richard from Pittsburgh could have dreamed of :)

Pittsburgh is so underrated it’s silly. Their designs are so ahead of the curve. Truly new developments in analog synthesis. Been following synths since the early 80s and some of what they’re doing is unprecedented. Like their generation of new harmonics by folding/clipping the wave from the center. (I have the standalone ‘safari’ module with the center clipping circuit, the one that’s here in the VL2.) Their Microvolt mini-synth is a slept-on classic. It’s amazing for percussion due to its envelope, LPG, and other snappy function generators.

Great demo!

1:38 🔥🔥🔥🔥OMG 🤤

34:03 well hello there !

Too few patch cables, not impressive at all

I had a Taiga, and I liked the sounds I got out of it, but the midi implementation was apparently limited by cost-cutting and the midi processor they used couldn't manage quick inputs. It also had firmware issues with settings and notes being stuck and needing a power reset, ruining my patch. I'm hesitant to trust them again, regardless of how cool their designs might be.

Nice review, love the VL2. Appreciate how your examples encourage me to think outside the box.

I can NOT wait for this masterpiece of a machine to be in my hands. Richard followed his muse and he & his team made my dream experimental synth, no hyperbole. And as always, fantastic demo. I feel like a kid in December!
