Chase Bliss: Generation Loss MkII Model Demo


video upload by MKustomAudio

"The ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ 'Generation Loss MkII' pedal simulates the sound of tape while offering a number of different models (EQ profiles based around physical hardware) for wide ranging results. To demonstrate the possibilities, full mixes of short ambient tracks I’ve previously posted were used. After setting the secondary/hidden settings and the DIP switches, a MIDI controller [NOVATION LAUNCHKEY MINI 37 MK4] was used to turn on/off the pedal and adjust the main parameters."

Spacious Synth Layers with Prophet-10, Moog One & CP-88 | Deep Space 2025-12-08 by atnr


video upload by atnr

"This piece was created using the ‪@SequentialLLC‬ Prophet-10, ‪@MoogSynthesizers‬ Moog One, ‪@NordKeyboards‬ Nord Lead, and ‪@YamahaSynthsOfficial‬ CP-88.

Sustained bass tones form the foundation, over which spacious synths and electric piano textures gradually layer and evolve.

The Prophet-10 is connected to the ‪@strymon‬ NIGHTSKY, where reverb and filtering add depth and dimension.

On the Moog One, synth pads are performed with aftertouch modulation used to gently bend and animate the sound.

The Nord Lead provides the sustained bass tone, with a slow LFO applied to the filter for subtle movement.

The CP-88 plays a Wurlitzer-style electric piano tone, processed through the ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ MOOD MKII, adding delay and tight micro-loop textures that blend into the atmosphere."

Filtered Synths, Tape Loop Noise & Dub Techno Atmosphere | Onset 2025-11-13 by atnr


video upload by atnr

"This piece was created using the ‪@NovationTV‬ Circuit, ‪@teenageengineering‬ OP-1 field, and a tape loop. It blends filtered synths, delayed drum patterns, and field recordings into a dub-techno soundscape.

On the OP-1 field, vocal samples are used to create chord tones that are looped with the ENDLESS sequencer. The filter is opened and closed at various points to alter the timbre. Reverb is added through the ‪@strymon‬ NIGHTSKY, where the HIGHCUT filter is also adjusted to shape the tone.

A cassette player ‪@WeAreRewind1‬ holds a one-minute endless tape containing field recordings captured in a park. These sounds are processed with ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ MOOD MKII and LOSSY, adding micro-loops, reverb, filtering, and textures between noise and ambience.

The Circuit plays the rhythm pattern. Its built-in filter is manipulated during performance, and additional delay is applied using the ‪@strymon‬ TIMELINE.

When the Spec Becomes Code: Building a Norns Instrument with AI


video upload by Lesjamusic

"Building PolyNexus: A Complete Norns Instrument, using Claude AI

I used to struggle with "vibe coding" - throwing prompts at AI and hoping for working software. Then I discovered the article "When the Spec Becomes the Code," and everything changed.

Spec-driven development (SDD) transformed my workflow. Instead of generating code through endless prompts, I focus on creating clear specifications first. The spec becomes the blueprint, and Claude AI helps compile it into working code.

PolyNexus is the result of this approach - a complete generative polyphonic instrument for Monome Norns that evolved far beyond my initial vision. What started as a chord sequencer grew ambitious: I built PolyVoice, a custom 6-voice synthesizer engine in SuperCollider, based on three Plaits oscillator models with wavefolding, sample rate reduction, and comprehensive modulation.

The best part? Spec-driven development gave me the confidence to tackle SuperCollider synthesis, something I wouldn't have attempted with traditional "vibe coding."

🎹 PolyNexus Features:

PolyVoice Synthesis Engine: • Custom 6-voice polyphonic SuperCollider engine • Three Plaits-inspired oscillator models (morph, waveshaping, wavetable) • Wavefolding for harmonic complexity • Sample rate reduction for lo-fi textures • Independent LFOs and envelope control per voice

Generative Sequencer: • 16-chord harmonic palette (monome Grid row 1) • Probabilistic note retriggering engine • Random chord sequencer for compositional surprises • Bass and sub-bass sequencer for rhythmic foundation • Real-time playable notes (Grid row 5)

Analog-Style Effects Chain: • Tape character: flutter, wow, saturation, tape noise • Tape-style delay with feedback and rate control • Multi-mode filtering for tone shaping

🔗 Resources: • Jean Bovet: "When the Spec Becomes the Code" - / when-the-spec-becomes-the-code • PolyNexus (coming soon to lines community) • monome Norns - https://monome.org • Mutable Instruments Plaits • SuperCollider synthesis language

⏱️ Timeline:
0:00 - Introduction: The Struggle with Vibe Coding
01:51 - Discovery: Spec-Driven Development
04:33 - What is PolyNexus?
12:37 - Live Performance

Want to try spec-driven development? Start by describing what you want to build in clear, detailed language. Iterate on the specification until it's crystal clear. Then let AI help compile it into code. You'll be amazed at what becomes possible."
