"Sebti Synth", enclosure and patching videos

#1

I've just finished uploading the videos about my last axoloti synth, so I thought I would create a topic for it.

It contains a (too) long videos about the enclosure design and construction

and a equally long video of the patching process.
I realized too late that I should have had a camera on the enclosure while I tested out the controls, but I'm sure this video can help some people understand some extra things while using the patcher

I also did a few extra videos with the synth as a bonus

Synth presentation and sound examples

Live performance in the woods

Because no synth is complete without a cat & synth video

Looking forward to watching these, love your videos.

I've often wished, when I see you playing around with your inventions in the forest and gadget cave, that you would start doing patching videos as well, stuff like that.

I will do some more, I quite enjoyed the challenge. I did this one 3 times, because of bad screen capturing software (or bad usage). And each time it lasted 1h, so I think I can manage to stay concentrated. Slight editing to get rid of some of the mmmm's and ehhhhhh's, otherwise it's quite easy.
I think I'll be doing them around themes, like sequencing, delays and loops... Maybe testing different things like oscillators / filters...
I did think about doing some kind of live steam event from time to time, but my internet connection (in the woods) is very bad (it takes me 48 hours to upload a video of 1h in HD). So unless I find excuses to go to a friends house with real internet to do it there, I'll stick to uploading edited videos for the moment.

Dear Matthew,

Like I pointed out before: What you do seems to come very close to what I hope to achieve. So thanks for putting this "how to" course together. I'm sure I'll devour it.

Thank you for a very helpful and informative patching video. It really helps new users like myself.
Great work!

I had no idea it took that long to upload this stuff, wow, and it's a sobering thought cause I'll be facing the same sort of speed issues when I move onto the boat. I'll often be in the middle of nowhere.

I prefer to see all the hmmmmmm's and ehhhhhh's in videos, makes it feel more down to earth, more human, but I totally understand why you need to edit when uploads take as long as that! Anyway, I do like the sound of that, a sort of series split into dedicated parts; oscillators, sequencing etc - looking forward to that!
