M-VAVE FM-1 / GR!MM / Collab with Firmware Maker #mvave

video upload by Apetactics and GR!MM // Deathdream

"The ultimate 'M-VAVE FM-1' FW is here! 🎛️💥

This project started when GR!MM—the mastermind behind the custom user Firmware with the same name for the M-VAVE FM-1—reached out to Apetactics after seeing his video showcasing that Firmware inside the Web-Emulator. They immediately knew they had to link up for a fresh, official collaboration.

Apetactics needed a MIDI input Filter to limit the device to 1 MIDI Channel only. He was absolutely shocked—that very same evening, GR!MM already had the Update with the changes completely ready! Now, just 1 day later, the New Collab is here.
Enjoy the track and download the hot FW! 🔥

I like to find other performers and lovely people to connect and to Grow Channels with EM.
Feel Free to follow this fun, place some Comments like you already do, and Enjoy, Thanks

GR!MM Turns the FM-1 Into a Dark Ambient Machine

video upload by substatica drones

"GR!MM turns the M-VAVE FM-1 into a dark ambient machine for drones, decayed textures, eerie sequences and beautifully unsettling sound. GR!MM turns the FM-1 into a four-track drone and atmosphere machine: seven sound sources, long dark effects, a 64-step sequencer per track, one-key chords, an arpeggiator, song mode and live performance tricks. Everything is drawn in a pixel-brutalist style, with an eye that watches the music and candles that burn with each track."
