video upload by atnr

"A track for YAMAHA reface DX and Game Boy (LSDj)—lo-fi pads under shimmering chiptune sequences.

The reface DX plays a synth pad routed through ‪@strymon‬ NIGHTSKY (shimmer reverb + filter) and ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ GENERATION LOSS MK II (tape coloration). The harmony is triggered from Ableton.

The Game Boy sequence is programmed in LSDj; its output runs into ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ MOOD MK II for reverb, where micro-loops create intricate phrases. In the outro the signal is fed through Valhalla Frequency Echo for swirling feedback."

"A piece for YAMAHA TENORI-ON, wavestick, and ‪@NordKeyboards‬ Nord Lead. Minimal phrases scattered by delay blend with synth textures into a minimal ambient soundscape.

On the TENORI-ON, I switch blocks to morph the phrase. It’s routed through ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ MOOD MK II for delay, pitch-shifting, and occasional micro-loops.

The wavestick is pitch-controlled by using the ‪@KORG_INC‬ SQ-1 in STEP JUMP mode as a CV keyboard. Its output runs into ‪@strymon‬ NIGHTSKY for reverb and delay.

The Nord Lead plays the harmony, with delay from ‪@gfisys‬ Specular Tempus."

"A piece with ‪@MoogSynthesizers‬ DFAM, ‪@teenageengineering‬ OP-1 field, and ‪@KORG_INC‬ volca fm2. A session of minimal, dubby rhythms and synths washed in spatial effects.

The DFAM and volca fm are synced via their SYNC ports.

On the volca fm, a simple pattern is sequenced while applying ‪@HologramElectronics‬ MICROCOSM’s MICROLOOP effect.

On the OP-1 field, the synth is played with DELAY for echo and the CWO effect for modulation.

The DFAM is patched with PITCH → VCF MOD and VELOCITY → NOISE LEVEL for sequencing, with delay added via ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ MOOD MK II."

"A piece for Lottie Canto electric kalimba and ‪@SequentialLLC‬ Prophet-10—minimal ambient built from simple harmony and kalimba melody.

The electric kalimba (Lottie Canto’s Colour Palette) runs its onboard delay, with additional reverb from ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ MOOD MK II. I toggle Micro Loop and use the CLOCK control to pitch-shift along the way.

The Prophet-10 uses a slow-attack, slow-release pad patch. Its output goes through ‪@strymon‬ blueSky for reverb."

MS-20: Handles the bass line, recorded through the BASS DRIVER for extra grit.

Noise box: Its output is boosted and modulated by ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ GENERATION LOSS MK II, then sent through the ‪@HologramElectronics‬ MICROCOSM for expansive reverb."

Making an Ambient Track With Chase Bliss Onward - Beautiful Errors

video upload by A Last Picture From Voyager

"Exploring the Chase Bliss Audio Onward Pedal: Embracing Errors in Ambient Music
Join me on a sonic journey as I explore the Chase Bliss Audio Onward pedal — a truly unique effects unit from ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ that invites us to rethink sound through the lens of freeze and imperfection.

In this video, I experiment with its distinctive features across various instruments, weaving ambient soundscapes shaped by creative errors, glitches, and beautiful mistakes.
Through this process, I show how embracing imperfections can open unexpected doors in experimental music composition, and how everyday sounds can be transformed into a rich emotional tapestry.

From subtle warbles to unexpected shifts, the Onward pedal becomes not just a tool, but a collaborator — encouraging exploration and surprise.
Whether you're a musician, sound designer, or just curious about the creative process behind ambient music, I hope this inspires you to find beauty in musical mistakes.
