Learning Modular Synthesis: Arturia Modular V is taught by Chris Meyer.

Overview
  • Use Arturia Modular V—a realistic emulation of the original Moog modular synths of the 1960s and 1970s—to "patch" a modular synth to create your own sounds.

Syllabus
  • Introduction

    • Welcome
    • Fundamental concept: Harmonics and sound
    1. Running Modular V
    • Installation and initialization
    • The user interface
    • Creating your first patch
    2. Basic Synthesis Techniques
    • Using multiple oscillators (VCOs)
    • The basic analog waveforms
    • The classic low-pass filter (LP VCF)
    • Attack/decay/sustain/release (ADSR) envelopes
    • The high-pass filter (HP VCF)
    • Using the Filter Coupler (band pass and reject modes)
    • The 2-pole multimode filter
    • Low-frequency oscillator (LFO) wave shapes
    • Pulse-width modulation (PWM)
    • Tremolo with LFO delay and fade-in
    • Controlling the LFO with the mod wheel
    • Adding vibrato
    3. Getting More Complex
    • Oscillator sync
    • Frequency modulation (FM)
    • FM drum sounds
    • Modulating the filter
    • Amplitude and ring modulation (AM)
    • The Fixed Filter Bank
    • The formant filter
    • Adding noise
    • Sample and hold (S-H)
    • Trigger delay
    • Dual audio delay
    • The chorus effect
    • 12-stage phaser
