I have all the suggested videos saved and will go through them all and also take a look at the SOS I've done a few of the Syntorial lessons, just the basic early stuff up to the first quiz where you have to listen to a sound and decide if it's a square (pulse) or saw wave and if it is square, then whether it's full, medium or thin. Thanks very much again for the feedback and ideas. I was going to post that video because its really great and helped me a lot to understand synthesis(screw paying for same info most likely not as clearly laid out as in this video).Īlso i think ms20 is great for learning synths

If you're interested in making music with synthesisrs, knowing how they work can help but as far as I can tell, this knowledge is only strictly necessary if you wanted to make a synthesiser yourself.įrom a music perspective, you may find music theory much more useful.
So what would people's advice be for starting out and learning about synthesis and playing an instrument? Any recommendations would be great be it books, videos or anything else really. Udemy has similar synthesis courses and one about music theory for electronic musicians but I'm not sure whether I want to pay per course as oppose to subscribe per month and have access to as many courses as I like. I don't own a Minilogue (yet!) but it doesn't look a million miles away from my MS 20. Over at they have a couple courses explaining how the Korg Minilogue works and how subtractive synthesis works and I thought perhaps that might be a good place to start. I have been looking at sites such as, Udemy and Ask.Audio Academy and considering doing some courses. I know the MS 20 Mini probably isn't the most beginner-friendly synthesizer to start with (I've read its layout is different than most other synths and can be confusing) but as I have it, I want to learn on it and take what I know to apply to Korg Gadget and anything else I use in the future.
#Building blocks syntorial Patch
I haven't tackled the patch bay aside from trying out other people's suggested patches but I don't understand how they work or why they change the sound when the cables are plugged in certain places.
#Building blocks syntorial how to
I also have a Korg MS 20 Mini and this is great for playing around with but if I'm being honest with myself I don't fully understand how it works or how to get a particular sound. I guess a good place to start would be music theory and to learn scales, chords and generally how to play a keyboard but then I would also need to learn how a synth actually works. That being said, as I am new to electronic music (making not listening) I wondered where to start first in terms of learning how to make it. Hi everyone, I'm just getting into making music with my iPad and have chosen Korg Gadget as it has pretty much everything I need for now.
