4 vids on triggering synths live with drumkits

via Stuff Linear/Amsterdam

"I have found some nice examples of the incorporation of synths and drumming.
In all the videos the drums trigger envelopes and/or drive the clock.
Mostly i notice people using the very versatile Nord Modulars for this kind of stuff.

This one is all analogue with Juno and Doepfer, by Analogueeak (he has several vids up, check m out)

This one is starring Andre Duracell playing the BubbleBobble Theme. He allso has several vids up. I chose this one because you see a bit of gear.
He uses the Nord G2 Engine and a laptop.

[Note you might remember Duracell from these two videos as well: one, two.

  1. I really enjoyed the videos and the idea of live acoustic interaction with synthesizers. I would like to see more posts with alternative trigger devices and processing of instruments through synthesizers.
