Being a (hopefully) thought-provoking video to explain modulation and inspiration strategies for modular, emphasis on the mighty Music Thing Turing Machine. I saved the most important point for last. Support on Patreon yea? patreon.com/mylarmelodies
Also features Basimilus Iteritas Alter, Turing Machine Expanders, VCAs, LFOs, Envelopes from Mutable Instruments Stages, Sophie, Elektron Machines, DFAM, and more.

00:00 Let's modulate ourselves.
00:46 Hands, LFOs, Attenuation
01:48 VCAs and LFOs
02:52 Turing Machines, Stepped modulation
06:30 Voltages Expander, Klee Sequencers
07:34 Taking inspiration from gear
10:35 Inspiration from Elektron & SOPHIE
12:55 Inspiration from the DFAM
15:29 Ergo, this system & 'the ratio.'
18:36 Envelopes for modulation, Mutable Stages
21:34 CV-controlled Decay time (posh)
22:32 Step sequencer VCA'd Envelopes!
24:37 Modulated clocks
25:43 Held voltages with an LFO & S&H
28:28 Trad random with noise and S&H
31:44 One very important final thought
