Hardware Jams Weekend Challenge - Cockroaches in Jail

video upload by SynthAddict

"End of the kebab series - in jail with cockroaches :-)

so I made a scenario with the local pet store's Madagascar Hissing Cockroaches shipment escaping into the jail all the sounds including perc are samples of stuff found in a prison cell (bed parts, metal tray or bowls/utensils, and bars of course) and sounds of the hissing cockroaches annoyed and getting squished over and over - the synth part is a cheat and is supposed to be a high human voice or something 😛 enjoy"

"It was restored and cleaned just last year. When turned on it shows the error 'Dsp Ram error'. Pressing the Recall - Compare button takes you to the menu and the error is no longer displayed. This is probably an error that can no longer be corrected. A hole was also drilled by the previous owner for the power socket. It is no longer on the left side of the synth like the original. The power plug for this is not an original, but from Access. But everything goes smoothly, it's a smoke-free studio. There is also a learning book included."

"Classic, vintage Korg Trident mkII. I've owned this for many years and it was working perfectly up until a couple of weeks ago. Now when I turn it on, all the LEDs come on as always, but as far as sound now it only emits a faint whine."

best to start simple (NORNS orgnwrms JAM)

video upload by tworoundrobins

"this little script is a powerhouse and still one of the best ways to use solely norns with a grid. shape the orgn sound and just throw it into the wacky delay lines of wrms - i find this quite enjoyable and at times almost magical. this is not jamuary, but rather a jam in good fun where noodles are literally the only things on the menu.

ambient talkie: ep 32 - exploring forgotten ORGANELLE patches (part I)

video upload by tworoundrobins

"I remember when I first got an organelle I downloaded a million of patches and organised them into sub categories, but soon after I completely forgot which one's I have, have used and what they do. in this more 'freeform' episode I explore some of these SYNTH patches, the one category i rarely use on organelle. hope this will be fun for y'all and enjoy the video!"

1010music nanobox | tangerine -- multisampling a VST

video upload by 1010music

"Multisampling is a technique in a sampler or sample playback synth that is composed of multiple actual samples, which are assigned to different portions of the note span. This technique is often used to improve the realism of samples of conventional instruments, many of which have timbral properties which are different between higher and lower notes.

As a general guideline, you might start with sampling every third or fourth note across the instrument's range and include multiple velocity layers for each sampled note. From there, you can adjust based on the considerations above. For example, you might sample more densely in a range where the instrument's timbre changes more noticeably and less densely where the changes are subtler. Listening tests during the production process are crucial to ensure that the multisample meets your standards for realism and expressivity.

Where the tangerine Looks for Note and Velocity Information
When the tangerine loads a multi-sample file set, it looks for each file’s Root Note so it can map the file to a MIDI Note, and if multiple files have the same Root Note, the tangerine looks for velocity information so it can map each file to a range of MIDI Note velocities and respond dynamically to the way a performer plays each note.

The tangerine looks in the following places in the following order until it finds what it needs:
1. SMPL tags of the WAV files
2. INST tags of the WAV files
3. The file names for the WAVs
When parsing the file names, it looks for the following format:
[Text name] + [ - or _ ] + [note number] + [ - or _ ] + [Vel1] + [ - or _ ] + [Vel2]

If tangerine doesn’t find the root note information in those three places, it will map the files in ascending, alphabetical order, starting at C2 (MIDI Note 36)."

Teenage Engineering EP-133 K.O.II Midi Looper

video upload by Perplex On

"This jam tries to utilize the #ep133 as a midi looper, punching in midi notes live into it and sending them to the iPad playing #klevgrand #speldosa. I realized that a few punch-in fx on the EP-133 do midi related stuff which is great for adding a bit of spice to the loops in real-time. Other convenient thing is that the iPad also powers the EP-133 in addition to having midi over the same cable. Thanks to my little wooden birdie friends for the support."
