Bruxa is an Angel | Shared System X Ep. 07 | Resynthesizer + Bruxa

video upload by Cinematic Laboratory

"Bruxa is basically isolated time/filter experiment from Strega. I pre-ordered it in the blind without giving it a second thought, because I love my MakeNoise collection. If they'd make a new mult I'd get it too. But there's something special about Bruxa when it's added to an ecosystem like the Resynthesizer layout.

In this patch, I play the case almost completely manually, by starting 'events' with PrssPnt. It picks a new note for Spectraphon VCO A (a high pitched Red mode sound going to DXG, where the volume (CTRL) is modulated by WoggleBug's smooth output. VCO B is a very rich voice from the Green mode that seems to have a high and low frequency component and a certain unstability at modest levels. It almost sounds like a Tenor vocalist.

I am using Mimeophon in Zone 7 (zone fully CW) which I call 'The Long Repeat' because it's repeating almost a minute of buffered audio. But the real magic happened when I used Bruxa to 'smear' the unstable VCO B - the Tenor vocalist. I got an amazing angelic choir. I've heard this amazing 'smear' on other channels too so it's not unique to this case, it's Bruxa doing her magic.
I am sure it will sound even better with your own filters, utilities and FX chains.

I am taking it slow with this patch, with manual events and no sequencing. However, PrssPnt picks a new note on Rene's X channel for VCO A every time it's touched. VCO B gets pitch from Rene's Y channel, but I simply use the selected stage knob to pick a new note in the scale. When I touch PrssPnt, it opens up DXG to make the 'vocalist' appear.

I am aware the Resynthesizer is an exclusive layout and it will not be on everyone's desk. This video gives a cool impression of what a Spectraphon, a Bruxa and a Mimeophon can do for your drone music. You can always sculpt the sound with a filter, LPG or VCA from any brand."
