Introducing Points&Lines Experimental Music Software

video by Giorgio Sancristoforo

New from Giorgio Sancristoforo, available at www.giorgiosancristoforo.net in the software section.

"Points & Lines is a new software dedicated to experimental music, drones and sound design, based on classic subtractive synthesis.

However the number of the available tools (20 oscillators, 20 VCAs, 20BPFs and 20 Pan channels) makes it a unique software capable of complex sounds and atmospheres seldom easily available in classic synthesizers."

"CLASSIC BUT DIFFERENT
Points & Lines is a new software dedicated to experimental music, drones and sound design, based on classic subtractive synthesis.

However the number of the available tools (20 oscillators, 20 VCAs, 20BPFs and 20 Pan channels) makes it a unique software capable of complex sounds and atmospheres seldom easily available in classic synthesizers.

FROM TINY SOUNDS TO HOURS LONG PIECES
Changing the score length can transform your composition radically in an instant. The complex trajectories of frequencies, pan, amplitude and pan can evolve in just 1 second, or in hours.

UP TO 80 OSCILLATORS
You can record up to 3 stereo tracks of 20 oscillators each, and play them along the live score to create massive 80 VCO, 80 VCA, 80 BPF and 80 PAN music.


Later you can export the separate tracks and edit them in your favourite DAW."

Introducing Gleetchlab 2021 for Mac and Windows

video by Giorgio Sancristoforo

"Gleetchlab 2021 for Mac and Windows, the Digital Audio Glitch Station.
}Available at giorgiosancristoforo.net" [see the software link up top when you get there.

THE GLITCH PARADIGM
Gleetchlab is a modular performance DAW dedicated to glitch and experiemental music.
With many new effect modules and a surround sound panner, Gleetchlab is a new world of experimental sound that can easily integrate with your modular setup.

MODULAR APPROACH
Every module can be connected with a practical matrix in the style of the old EMS synthesizers. You can process and re-process live and recorded sounds endlessly.

DESIGNED FOR PERFORMANCE
The only DAW imagined for a glitch live performance.
No timeline, the sound flows endlessly for instant realtime action.

The Radiotone X-Rays Synthesizer

"Taking inspiration from the discoveries of William Crookes and Wilhelm Röntgen, the Radiotone is a one-of-a-kind music synthesizer that uses X-Rays to control and shape the sound. More info: https://www.giorgiosancristoforo.net/..."

Taking inspiration from the discoveries of William Crookes and Wilhelm Röntgen, the Radiotone is a one-of-a-kind music synthesizer that uses
X-Rays to control and shape the sound.

The Radiotone is divided in four sections:

High Voltage generation
X-Rays generation
X-Rays detection
Sound synthesis

You can find full details on the Radiotone X-Rays Synthesizer on Giorgio Sancristoforo's website here.

Giorgio brought us the experimental Gleetchplug line of synths, Berna and more.

Quadrivium Orbital Synthesizer-Controller (sneak preview)

Giorgio Sancristoforo

"12 moons orbiting around the four giant gas planets as modulation sources? Yes! Orbital data from Jan 1 2020 to Jan 1 2030 (hour by hour) are used in the forthcoming Quadrivium synthesizer to modulate oscillators, filters, delay and create incredible spacey soundscapes.
Did I mention that you can also use the moons' orbits to modulate your MIDI gear? :D
Soon available at https://www.giorgiosancristoforo.net"

Giorgio Sancristoforo is the man behind the Gleetchplug line of software synthesizers and sound machines.

GleetchDrone Download Link

This is a follow-up to this post.

You can find the download here.

It looks like I messed up the link in the previous post. Apologies for that. For those curious as to why this sometimes happens, it's because I have to add http:// or https:// to any links that omit them in descriptions. Blogger doesn't automatically add them for you and when they are omitted the link ends up getting redirected back here. A similar thing happens with truncated links in YouTube and SoundCloud descriptions. If I simply make the link active it will go to the truncated link and fail. I have to click through and grab the full link. P.S. All of this adds up with 30+ posts a day, and is why I only link when necessary, and/or for supporting members of the site.

The Klirrfaktor: Dystopia Sessions "Hammer and Dance" (modular patch)

Published on Apr 24, 2020 TheKlirrfaktor

"Next track. The atmo comes in real time from Gleetchlab. All the other sounds from the modular. Post production in Logic Pro.
It's really hard to get everything in tune. I calibrated all my VCOs and the two Renès. But the calibration of the A-156 (Quantizer) seems to be a pain in the ass and this guy is really detuned.
Also my VCOb and the Rubicon are very sensitive to my shaking mains voltage ...
However - i did my best :D"

Introducing Fantastic Voyage - Portable Cosmic Studio - Virtual 4 Track Tape w/ Effects

Introducing Fantastic Voyage from Giorgio Sancristoforo on Vimeo.

From the maker of GleetchDrone, GleetchlabX, Berna 2, and Radioaktivnost.

"Imagine a 4 track studio with integrated realtime infinite stretching, glitch, tape echo, filter, luscious reverb, modulators and looper!

Use it with guitars (include VST hosting for amp simulation and other processors), microphones, synths, anything!

Onstage as a live tool or while travelling as a portable studio for amazing experiments.

While home, you can still travel in the outer/inner space!

Release Fri March 27th, h22.00 GMT

Berna 2 for Windows Released

"Berna is a faithful recreation of a 1950s electronic music studio (mostly modelled after the Italian RAI Fonologia Studios).

Berna is a software simulation of a late 1950s electroacoustic music studio. Oscillators, filters, modulators, tape recorders, mixers, are all packed in a easy-to-use interface with historical accuracy.

Explore serial, concrete and tape music or create strange new sonic worlds with instruments inspired by the greatest studios of the early days of electronic music.

Are you ready to meet the grandfather of the synthesizer?

Requirements:
Windows 7, Windows 8 or Windows 10, 64-bit Intel® or AMD multi-core processor. Intel® Core™ i5 processor or faster recommended, and GB RAM (8 GB or more recommended)."

Tableau Generative Album

Tableau Generative Album from Giorgio Sancristoforo on Vimeo.

"'There is no doubt that, as music is removed by the phonographrecord from the realm of live production and from the imperative of artistic activity and becomes petrified, it absorbs into itself, in this process of petrification, the very life that would otherwise vanish.'

Theodore Adorno 'The form of the Phonograph Record'

Tableau is my first portable Generative Album and it will be soon released.

Tableau will be available in two options:

1) Limited edition of 50 Generative Players + Gleetchlab software

2) CD + Gleetchlab software

Please note: Gleetchlab as usual runs only on Apple Macs and it’s not intended for the Generative Album.

Generative endless music player

Tableau plays on a standalone generative player, it is a portable sound installation.

The music, instead of being 'reproduced' like a CD, a Vinyl or an Mp3, it is generated and arranged while you are listening to it. It never sounds the same. Tableau creates an almost endless number of mixes of the LP. Each time you will listen, it will be different, and will keep evolving evolving until you will plug the power off.

It reacts to the environment.

The music of Tableau reacts to temperature, humidity, atmospheric pressure, space and magnetic field.

No need for screen, keyboards, mouse etc…

To listen to Tableau just plug the power supply and your speakers with a mini-jack cable, Tableau will boot and create music in realtime.

You may also use a standard 2A, 5V battery pack for mobile phones so you can carry Tableau with you anytime, anywhere.

New albums will just require only a new micro SD card

A Generative Album owner will order the micro SD to get the new album/installation.

Updates with new features will be also available and for free.

Check the website for the release date of the 50 limited edition players.
