As I´m quite surprised about how many people have watched my patch analysis of BAZILLE´s (factory) patches, I have decided to start a second series of patch analysis, this time it´s about ZEBRA. The first part is online now:

Rolf I would like to thank you for the time and effort you put into making your videos. They are excellent.

Well done. Subscribed!

Wow! Thank you bcm70 and thank you bftucker. And, yes, it always takes a certain time and indeed some effort to make those videos. But I couldn´t image something being more fun and bringing more satisfaction than producing videos like those you liked. I simply love doing it.
Have a great day and a good time!
Rolf

Thanks for this, and also for the Bazille ones.
I can learn a lot from these.

I´ve been a teacher for more than 40 years, and my aim and wish has always been to make people learn AND have fun while learning. Thank you for your post. Rolf

Thank you so much, Rolf. =)

I deeply appreciate these. I really hope you continue should you find that you have more to say =)

rofilm · Post by **rofilm** » Sat Dec 10, 2016 4:50 pm

Thank you vvilms. I´ll surely continue. When it lasts sometime - and sometimes it really does last - before the next video in a series (i.e. the Zebra patch analyses) gets online it isn´t that I have nothing to say or I needed new ideas. There´s always a lot left to say and ideas are uncountable. No, it´s simply missing time!
But if you are interested in what I´m doing at the moment, what videos are to come next and what videoas have resently appeared on one of my channels, well, you´ll find these things - most up-to day - here: http://www.rofilm-media.net/rofilm_cz_17_008.htm
Again: thank you for your comment/post!
Have a great day and a good time!

Hello everybody!
https://youtu.be/VJ_2nbKexOI
Lifetime licenses and free access to all of my future video productions can be gained until Friday 31 March 2017 therefore.
(Please visit my website http://www.rofilm-media.net/rofilm_cz_17_003.htm for details or go to the forum “the deep-sound divers´ coffee house” http://www.rofilm-media.net/frt7/viewto ... ?f=10&t=50 to learn more about the matter.)

I´d like to thank you, who have donated during the last 4 years. As a “material” way of saying “thank you” you are owners of these lifetime licenses now. You always will have free access to all of my video productions. Please contact me for details (rofilm@seznam.cz) , if you do not want to wait for my email to inform you personally.

After March 31 (2017) there won´t be any lifetime licenses on offer any more. You´ll have to donate to get access to a tutorial or to another video production of mine individually for each video and each time.

But it still will be your decision how much you donate. There won´t be a minimum amount so far. And whether or not there will ever be one depends only on you, same as it depended only on my viewers to “make it all donation ware”.

Producing a tutorial of the given quality takes me between 30 and 40 hours of work:

selecting the matter, writing the script, testing, rewriting, producing the individual clips and footage, recording the voice-over, producing animations and graphs, cut, discussing the video with my family and with friends, critics, changes, publishing.

And as long as the mere number of viewers doesn´t convince the people at the baker´s to give me some bread for free, nor any shop assistant to give my grandchildren some new shoes as a present, my choice is:

Either stop producing my tutorials at all and give more private lessons,
or
try to make it completely donation ware.

I´ve decided to try the later.

Just to avoid some misconception:
All members of the FM/PM workshop will have free access even to future parts of this workshop of course (but there won´t be new members accepted as my free service capacity has reached its limits).

And videos in the course of our project “The Sound of the Waters of the World” will always be free – for ever and for anybody.

Have a great day and a good time!

Rolf

Thought I'd let you know I learned some tricks on programming my Solaris from watching your 2 x Zebra vids.
It's semi Modular, has Looping EGs. 4 x Lfos 4 x EGs 4 Filters. 4 OSC.
Zebra2 HZ Is a perfect companion.

Thank You

I sat for the synthesizer Zebra2 for four hours, I wanted to make the sound of an acoustic guitar, but I could not. All the time sounds a sound, not like strings. Look at the preset, please. What am I doing wrong? Thank you!
