This collection really helped me to understand the microfreak and get the full potential of it. It's kinda intimidating at first but now I start to getting it. Thanks a lot, man.

Thanks Marc, very happy you have kept these MicroFreak videos going. Love my Freak and keep learning new stuff each time I use it. For example, in step sequencing mode you can change the sequence length with shift-rate/swing. Would be great if they allowed this in normal sequence playback - altering the sequence length on the fly is fun and currently involves menu diving to achieve. Can’t wait for Part B!

Love it! Love the freeform aspect of it, and love that this is closer to what the actual experience is and allowing us to come along on this journey with you.

Hey Mark. Thank you for your MicroFreak series. I enjoy your sequencing videos because I make the same damn mistakes! Others seem to just get it but seeing people, ie - you, making those errors and then saying, not only makes me feel good but also showing what went wrong helps us noobies.

The wonderful thing about Marc reviewing sequencer functions is his sheer wonder at functions that are standard on literally every synth sequencer in the last 30 years.
Arturia do make a great sequencer, though. The Keystep is brilliant.

Cool! Was learning the sequencer today but didn’t understand about the modulation tracking before this. Thanks!!

[raukuscorpas]

this machine is so full of surprises its just as much fun to watch someone else playing with it .thanks.

Happpy to see these videos about Microfreak are back😃 thanks!

[nico]

oh sweet...I didn't know about sequencing motion effects...this thing gets freakier every day :D

[stylesraw]

"Freaky idea" as they would say in the manual... use the sequencer as a modulation source.

Program a sequence with no actual notes in it, just modulations. Hit play on the sequence and jam on the keys, you will have programmed modulation effecting your jam.

Many thanks for another excellent video.. Looking forward the continuation..

[Readchendreher]

These are sick sequences. I like it and your videos too.😃

[slevinsChannel]

i really like your videos about the microfreak and learned a lot. keep it up :)

[truthseeker]

Thank You Marc Doty, This is Cool!.
Thumbs up! :)

that ring on the index finger of your right hand be tight, huh?
Thanks for the vid though, I've been working at this synth for a couple years now and still feel like a complete noob.

[Taskuvesku]

If you hold "Shift" button while sequence is playing, you can change it's note also.

[NatLifeSounds]

How to clean the sequence and delete modulations on the sequence, and delete the last step of modulation for sequence? Thanks

[angieleenjuvert]

How could I delete the sequence modulations? I’ve read online where some people say you just press (shift)+ (oct l mod) but that doesn’t work. I watched the video a few times and don’t recall that being mentioned unless I missed it lol

Now if Arturia would only add a very much needed METRONOME. Having two 64 step sequencers available for each patch is so
