🎛️ What happens when you plug a graphic equalizer into itself?
In this video, I explore the world of no-input graphic EQ, where an equalizer stops shaping sound and starts generating it. By patching the output back into the input, the EQ becomes a self-contained noise machine — capable of deep rumbles, sharp tones, and chaotic textures.
Chapters:
0:00 Intro
0:40 Loudness Warning
0:49 Basic setup
1:38 Patch with Delay
3:20 Final demo
I’ll walk you through:
The basic no-input EQ patch
How sliders shape the feedback sound
Creative uses with delay and reverb distortion
A live sound demo to show the full range of noise
Whether you’re into ambient music, noise experiments, or feedback synthesis, this technique unlocks an entirely new way to use gear you might already have.
👉 Try it out, and let me know your own no-input patch ideas in the comments!

✌️ Hi,
my name is Sid Rockett and I create experimental synthesizers and noise makers.
On this channel I explore the sonic possibilities of small pocket synths and diy eurorack setups.
So join me on my journey through ambient soundscapes and immerse yourself in deep reverbs and outer-space delays.
