  • Joel! Nasa wants all there shit back!

  • i wonder how much electricity this uses -_-

  • 4:18 WTF

  • just pick one damnit

  • deadmau5 is actually very smart with his equipment

  • I think he lives in a space ship 0.o

  • Is it weird that all of this made sense to me?

  • @AloneInMyOwnMind me too.. i have that weird feeling that i should go out sometimes.. :D

  • WOOUUUUIIIIWWWAAAAARRRZZZZZZZZ­ZZ

    

  • omg Its a video inside a video, weedception

  • just looks like an analog version of Reason!

  • @babymau5 It pretty muchis haha, This is exactly what reason was modelled on

  • He looks coked in this video

  • yeah! stick it in that mouse butt!lol.

  • i like him and his love for modular :) haters gonna hate :P

  • I dont really care if he cant find his VCO, i like watching him fucking with sounds and just generally messing around with effects :)

  • 1:36 He's so canadian "sorry"

  • this guy is upsetting real musicians/modular lovers everywhere

  • @kontube your mother is upsetting the world because you were born

  • why smoke near all that analog gear? WHY?

  • Not a big fan of this guy, plus I don't think he knows much about electronic music at all, and his music is more or less crap IMO. What an asshole!

  • @theUnlimited1 I agree with everything you say but he does know electronic music. He makes some catchy stuff. But yeah, he is a big douche.

  • @theUnlimited1 and what the fuck do u know about electronic music!? where the fuck r your hits???????????????????

  • @theUnlimited1 The millions of fans he has will probably disagree with you. How many fans do you have again? Oh, that's right i've never heard of you. Neither has anybody else.

  • It should make some gnarly sound, well it should...

    What. The. Fuck. 

  • waveshake to mou5but makes joel say WOOOOOW.

  • Yeah he's destroying gear but he's creating work! Some people are happy to get paid to repair and rebuild modules like these. Keep it coming.

  • Basics of Reason 4.0-Thor Polysonic synthesizer

    *Chuckle*

  • "im gonna take the wave shaper output to mau5 butt... and.. WOAH!"

  • i lost you at 0:00

  • Wrong time to smoke.

  • man, I'm trying to quit smoking

  • fuckin' faggot smoking that cigarette next to all those nice modulars. total moron.

  • @TheHevquip haters gonna hate fuckwit, go die ;) kthnxbye.

  • @NexwellVEVO Yeah, I must be "hating" because he's stupid enough to smoke cigarettes around $50,000 of modular equipment. Gear that gets ruined by smoke, you get kicked out of studios for smoking (oh wait, you're not supposed to smoke in ANY studio because smoke ruins the gear), the kind of gear that ANY professional tells you not to smoke by. He's basically doing something very BAD, but you're too much of a bandwagon riding fanboy to acknowledge that.

  • @TheHevquip as if a cigarette is going to effect them you tard

  • @ChindlerOntheRoof as if it's the only cigarette he's ever smoked near his gear...

  • @TheHevquip as if any amount of cigarettes is going to mess with the gear

  • @ChindlerOntheRoof It does, so you've obviously never been in a studio or have ever owned any gear...but no, feel free to keep arguing something you know nothing about just because you're so enamored by a musician that you feel he can do nothing wrong.

  • ...so how do i make music?

  • dude go back to FL Studio... thats way out of your league...

  • @tomislavrupic who are you talkin to??

  • man those tiny mau5 farts are massive :O...i never use the this words but that is a cute speaker to have ^ ^)

  • the mouse man is a portable speaker

  • huh what the h. is that mouse man? :)

  • Helpful Mau5

  • any guesses on how much that whole rack setup right there costs?

  • @colmas Easily $6000. You're looking at between $100 and $400 per module and he's got more than 30 modules...

  • Deadmau5 cant find an Oscillator on a synth he built himself?

  • @Cheboboh he didn't build shit in this video. that is a bought synth he might have picked out off of a list. and nothing is hooked up, even if w.e he says... to get these modules to do something cool, they need to be hooked up... 1 thing on there is like 1 section of a vst... where a vst has 10 sections...

  • @rhoggard76 Im sorry but i have my own synthesizers wich i love to work with daily, and i know them outside like the back of my hand. After a while you know where your oscillator is because that's the place where your sound starts in a synth.

    This just seems like a impossible problem to have as a 'professional'.

    i dunno, maybe he is just sleepy or something. Still like the guy, I just could not grasp that situation happening to you as a music producer 3 months ago lol.

  • @Cheboboh happening to him, not me. i hand make my instruments from the blank pcb. deadmau5 is a scatterbrain no talent. give me $100,000 US and i can have a 100,000X better "Live show" with lights and custom stage also.

  • mouse butt

  • That mouse has a loud ass

  • i can't believe u had these videos on youtube and i never watched them

  • With all the giant hardware I was sure he was going to blow up that tiny mau5 speaker.

  • Comment removed

  • he don't need all that gear for done his tracks

  • @theloopmasta wow. you fail. ofcourse he does. No seriously I bet you he uses alot of that hardware.

  • @liquidcast i know perfectly how to do a track.

  • @theloopmasta you fail again. I didn't say you couldnt. The reason why Deadmau5 gets his own "specific" sounds in different songs that are way different to everyone else is probably because he spends hours working with these modular's. Lol I bet your a kid that use's FL studio and rips off everyone else.

  • @liquidcast do YOU tried fl studio?

  • @theloopmasta lol dont worry he doesnt know better

  • @liquidcast could you give me some "exactly" examples? (sorry for my english)

  • @liquidcast He really doesnt, he could do it all in software...he doesn't because he likes hardware thats about it. There are plenty of modular vsts out there not that most of the sounds he makes need a modular...hell most of it is just standard subtractive/FM sounds alot of his signature sounds actually come from vsts...strobe for example. Yes the guy you were retorting was obviously an idiot, but your retort wasn't sensible.

  • @sacredgeometry Yes you can do alot with software. You could make the majority of tracks with vst's and routing with software for instance reason. But you definitely don't know what you are talking about when you suggest that he does'nt use modulars ins his songs and for using strobe as an example.The purpose of it is to create and recreate specific samples and sounds that you can use within your song. he uses analog and modulation for alot of his music.

  • @liquidcast Strobe is named after a vst the main riff was created in :P its also a vst hes admitted to using in every song. Care to show me an example where modular synthesis was necessary? I didnt say he didnt use modular synths, I said i havent heard one example where he couldnt recreate the sound on a non modular subtractive synth.

  • @sacredgeometry He uses analog most of the time for his music. I garuntee you he uses modulation and analog for the majority of his music. Ive seen him use modulars and analog synths from watching him produce for hours on livestream etc and I bet you havn't even seen his live gear he's been using. He carries around a few modulation racks and has them in his booth. Your response is just as retort for not researching before replying.

  • @liquidcast haha I have seen his ustream, i know he has moog voyagers, (if he still has his racked voyager and little phatty) he has a few modular racks including a doepfer rack, he shows a pro08 in older videos as well as numerous others .... he has a little 303 remake as well (but not an x0xb0x) I know he uses analogue as well as software and VA ie nord lead 3 and virusTI polar... You might need to learn to read :P

  • @sacredgeometry I do know how to read and you have just proven my point by acknowledging that he uses alot of analog/modulation and man I wish I had half of the gear he uses. But the fact is, Arguing with someone else over the internet on a video that is not about us is pointless annnnnnnd I never in my whole life want to get his monthly powerbill.

  • @liquidcast Like they say, arguing on the internet is like competing in the special olympics. even if you win you're still retarded.

  • Lolol you guys need Deadmau5 to tell you what a VCO is?

  • Whats the white filter at the top he plugs into after the mouse butt? Thing looks sick.

  • Deadmau5 will talk to the aliens when they land

  • "well for starters, that's a VCF and i'm retarded" LOL, that's exacctly the kinda thing i'd do.

  • modular is sort of like propellerheads reason you guys...

  • well for starters thats a vcf and im retarded. bahahaha

  • wow, that seems more fun than just doing it digitally.

  • I got ripped when I made made a video describing my own modular synth. I forgot to put my smoke out and smoked through the whole thing. I saw this last night for the first time.Fuggin' cracked up! You da mau5, Mau5! Thanks, Joel, for promoting modular and helping keep Shawn, Buchla, and the like in business. Where do I get a Mau5 Butt?

  • what a cunt he is

  • Can anybody point out or name any of the modules he uses? It's weird, I've never seen any of them before...

  • he needs an original moog. that's the shit right there.

  • @deejaydotme who cares if he smokes? 

  • All of this looked really confusing at first, but I understand it now a little.

  • Now I'm gonna take the waveshaper output to Mau5butt xD ROFL

  • @ElectricPulze 3:37 LOL *BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUZZZZZ­ZZ!*

  • ooohhh toll

  • mua5but hes tail

  • people, he DO understand what hes talking about.. hes just tryin to explain it in a way that you guys could understand, or attleast follow him in a not out of this world advanced way.

  • Wave shaper output to mouse butt

  • Nooooo dont smookkeerr

  • I need a modular synthesizer now

    I found a good site too

    NOW TO FIND A JOB

  • This is a uh....uh, shit.

  • He smokes?! Noooooooo

  • he's havin' a bit of technical difficulties LOL!

  • If I had a professional studio full of analogue gear, I wouldn't let him touch a thing.

    He can play in FL all he wants though.

  • @MartinEugeneHarp Your an idiot.

  • @OmniVisionElite It's "you're". Thanks though.

  • @OmniVisionElite I'm guessing you meant to type "You're an idiot". I forgive you.

  • 12 people know their way around a modular synth system.

  • is he hi ?

  • hahaha smoking...

  • Does someone kno which VCO he is using right at the begining?at 1:45?Thanks

  • man this is really cool to see... its not often a huge artist takes the time to explain or show how they get their work done. Whats the point of hating on him for it? this shit is intriguing how you can take such a cluster fuck of equipment and get it to make such great sounding tracks.

  • ahaha, he's doing it while completely stoned.

  • lol, why did he do this live before actually understanding how to use his new synth? That's ballsy.

  • @ScissorHand26 Dude,he knows what he is doing,how come u saying he doesnt kno a shit?

  • Check out Merge.FM

  • think de mau5 has a bit of a white nose... or else too much caffeine

  • wow thats legit. I would have soo much more fun having a physical modulator setup like that then using software :)

  • For Starters that's a VTF , And I'm Retarded xD

  • by the way Deadmau5,the guys name @ AnalogueHaven is Shawn not Steve.I think you need to stick to software,because this is pathetic.A house music grammy winner doesnt even know the difference between a VCF and a VCO,and the Piston honda isnt a VCO,Its a VCO controlled bitcrusher.I think you might wanna lay off all that ketamine and MDMA for a little while,apprently it is taking its toll.Beforee i watched any videos on this guy,i liked some of his music,but im not even sure if its his own now.

  • @prettyhatedmachine

    Seriously dude chill out not really that big of a deal... why does it even matter if he knows his shit or not he makes great music.

  • @stoplightelectro If its not that big of a deal then why did you say something to me in the first place,isn't the comment section for comments.If i was to put a video up of myself when i was high as hell talking about crap i didnt know about,someone would make comments on my page.Dont pass out on me,its just a comment(my own opinion)the other half was actually cold hard facts.

  • haha hes my hero xD. So funny when that really loud noise came and he was like "OH!!". :D

  • seems to me like he knows, or is learning his stuff pretty well? why the hate?

  • He doesn't "care about his fans" as someone stated here because he's not teaching anything, he's just showing off his recently-bought gear and he's got a rockstar attitude, i second JamesPriceSucks, he's a douchebag.

  • hahaha the little mouse is farting lol

  • What a fucking moron.

  • The guy is a 20th century genuis.

  • Someone look at something Expensive but someone look Cheap

    and another one look at like a toy but another seem to can not get it in this whole life

    ....yeah ...you and him just stand in each possition..No right no wrong...

    btw if U never touch something that you try to act like exactly know it... stop it..

    It's stupid..

  • What is that little red mouse for? Is it the speaker? Nooo... or is it? Pardon me, I dont get it.

  • @omerjacobus yes it is a speaker =D. you can buy one on his website for a rediculous amount of money

  • @Pawshter Thank you :)

    Well, after watching it again I recognized he said it some times... seems my mind was too far away, imaginating waveforms ;))

  • @Pawshter I've seen ones for 20 bucks. google search it

  • @Pawshter Please send me a link to buy this speaker...i really need it

  • @Pawshter it does give surprisingly good sound for something that looks like it comes with a happy meal, so it would make sense if it was expensive (plus it would be a niche market for sure).

  • @omerjacobus yeah...I bought it. It's pretty pricey for a little speaker but I love Deadmau5 so it made me happy

  • @mssammieLovely were can you get those lol wtf? how much are those things?

  • @m1ghostsniper I got mine from Hottopic.com and it's $25

  • I'd like to clarify that this isn't a fail because he doesn't know his gear. Of course we all have to take time to get to know new gear. This is a fail because he thinks it's worth broadcasting.

  • though not as much fun as what you're having

  • zerocrossing gc you faggot cunt

  • lol Deadmau5 fail

  • @YJ777 and you are nobody. COOL STORY BRO!

  • hahaha, watch the captions with this video! They totally don't match anything he is saying!

  • So do all these modular systems work in conjunction with each other like how pedals in a guitar rig do? Would it be Synth controller > mod systems > another mod > another mod (and so on) > speaker?

  • @ryushenshi Yes, but it can get much more complex than that. Mods can be patched into other mods and then back to the osc (sound source). So, imagine you've got a wah pedal (filter) and you can plug an osc (LFO) into it (hell, you can even do audio rate modulation for extra craziness) to modulate the sweep of the filter. I recommend trying Karma FX Modular. There's a demo. It's a cheap way to get into this.

  • too much fucking money and no fucking clue

    this is how you do it

    watch?v=6lZO-3Uz0ps

  • words fail me!

  • Comment removed

  • Fuckin modular synths, how do they work? I dont wanna talk to no synthesist. Motherfuckers always tellin lies and gettin me pissed.

  • @hXcKitteh i agree..

  • I'm not a fan of his work, but come on guys. He admits he doesn't know what he's doing, and he obviously got all this stuff at once, and is just getting into the world of modular. You can't blame someone for wanting to get into it :D

    He's just able to afford everything at once, instead of upgrading over the course of years to know it inside out.

    Heck, these videos alone are a huge fan service. That's pretty respectable for an artist to share their world.

    My 2cents

  • @Jordo54321 Dude, he's been building this over the last couple of yrs. Aka not some randome overnight splurgin.... if u listen to his soundcloud ull find a track using his modular system, and its really awesome sounding... ah well, fuckit take 5 minutes of ur life and check him out, he's clearly ah tech guy! Knows what he's doing

  • @ke7z If you couldn't tell, I was defending him. I don't follow him enough to know that he's been building this over years as he's not an artist I keep tabs on. I just saw this vid on a forum with people bashing him, and giving my take on it.

  • @Jordo54321 i love the 80's to man, cheesy solos and jordan rudess, that's my cup of tea! uck yeah let's be intellectual morons and listen to stockhausen. get a grip.

  • @ke7z However, I do find it odd that he's having trouble finding his oscillators/filters etc if he's had this over the course of a few years. You think that'd be second nature by now.

  • @Jordo54321 I'm not a fan of his music either and seeing this videos gave me a lot of respect for the guy.

  • @Jordo54321 he has more modular systems: a buchla 200e system, buchla 250e, and another doepfer

  • @Jordo54321

    The only thing is, he didn't buy everything at once. He doesn't have mad amounts of cash like people think he does.

    And he definitely knows what he's doing if you listen to what he's saying, or at least watch. People can make mistakes while talking. I do it all the time. But in reality, there is no "wrong" with sound sculpting. Just experiments. Anyone who is trying to be dick about the videos are 12, lonely, and probably dont know anything about modular synths to begin with ;)

  • @Jordo54321 He obviously does know quite a few things. THere is no wonder he doesnt know what EVERYTHING does, youd need a fucking rocket engineering degree for that. Thats the biggest damn modular synth ive seen

  • @Jannto you need to checkout more modular synths if thats the biggest you've ever seen google "buchla 200e synthtopia"

  • @Jordo54321 spotanuity is the one thing that has attracted me to making music, by literally mongin your brain trying to build tunes and rifts, just fck about a bring some sound to life!!! wouldnt you like to just whack some crazy sounds together, have a blast, smoke some dope and wake up the next morning with a million pound/dollar track??!! i know i would!!

  • @LaminaDieWills

    i wish that's how it worked! but i think the whole "stoned inspiration" rarely works, which really sucks. it certainly never seems to work for me. i find it helps to conjure up a feel/mood/mental image that you want to make a "soundtrack" to. take some ritalin, sit down at the synth/daw of choice and keep honing in to that goal "soundtrack" for the feel/mental image you want to convey.

  • What a jackass :/

  • Has to be a joke.

  • That explains his musical competence.

  • All u trainspotters, freaks wish u cud be as big as dis kid ere but u neva will. keep on makin fart sounds wit ur yamaha poly quadrons and pretendin ur a "producer" but u still dont know how 2 make ppl move on da dancefloor wich is what really counts deez days.

  • @LimpBizkitFan4Lyf sadly ur rite

  • give me your modular so I can actually use it since you clearly don't
