To play with the Drones you need an iPad, the Lemur and Ableton live."
"Live improv jam using only Lemur to wirelessly control all instruments and effects in Ableton Live, with NI's Kontakt and Massive as the sound sources. A Novation Launchpad is controlling the recording and playback of loops in Ableton. All loops are recorded live, nothing was pre-recorded. Audio was captured from the 1/8" output of the laptop to a Zoom Q3HD's 1/8" input."
"Improv jam with a Fender Rhodes and Moog Prodigy, along with Lemur on an iPad 2 and iPhone 4 wirelessly connected to Ableton Live. Lemur on the iPad 2 is triggering drums from NI's Kontakt, along with filters and effects from Ableton Live. The iPhone 4 is controlling Ableton's reverb and delay on the Rhodes and Prodigy. The Akai APC20 is controlling the recording and playback of loops in Ableton. The Rhodes is running through an MXR Wylde Overdrive. All loops are recorded live. MIDI input from Lemur is quantized. The audio interface is a PreSonus AudioBox 1818VSL, connected to a Macbook Pro. Video shot with a Zoom Q3HD, and audio was captured through its line input from the mixer."

"An experiment with the jazzmutant Lemur iPad app. The Lemur is controlling Ableton live's Operator synth, playing a patch i created. I'm using Mat's Scalomat preset for the Lemur, which i modified to add a slider for cutoff, portamento time and a control for resonance.
You can download the Scalomat patch here: http://bit.ly/ua8oFA and the Lemur app is available from Liine. liine.net/en/products/lemur/
Tedroning 'loop sound was several tracks of my Minikorg 700 synth from '74, looped in ableton's looper plugin, the bass sound was the Korg MS-20, and the drums were Oberheim DMX."
"Improv jam using Lemur on an iPad 2, with analog keyboards and USB controllers connected to Ableton Live. Lemur is wirelessly controlling effects on NI's Massive (synth played on the M-Audio Oxygen 25) and NI's Kontakt (drums played on the Akai MPD26). The bass is on a Moog Prodigy, and the lead is a DSI MoPho. All loops are recorded live, nothing is pre-recorded."
"adapted the stepSeq_4 module from the JazzMutant team to create a multi value step sequencer that triggers a granular combinator patch in Reason 6. This is definitely a way to obtain more musical results from the Lemur - Reason combination, but it lacks transport synchronization.
The granular patch is a derivation of one posted years ago on the propellerhead website."
"Always coveted a Jazzmutant Lemur, but could never justify the cost. So I couldn't pass up the opportunity to work with the iOS app adaptation by liine! This is my first attempt experimenting with the multiball control and physics model to trigger MIDI notes and generate interesting modulation patterns of Malstrom and Echo devices."

via the listing: "This item was bought brand new and has had only one owner. It was programmed by Andrew Plourde and myself and used by M.I.A. on stage for her 2007-2008 world tour. The Lemur is probably the most flexible and customizable multi-touch interface. Everything from complex software mixer control to unique step sequencers is possible to program in an eloquent and efficient manner.
Unlike Touch OSC on the iPad, the Lemur has rapid fire response times due to its gigabit ethernet connection. What this means is that the user experience will never be marred by latency or the timing short coming of wifi OSC/MIDI control. Also unlike TouchOSC the user is able to design patches with algorithmic modules. For example, bouncing ball algorithms that move on their own or in response to the users input can generate automating MIDI/OSC data. Imagine, for example, automating a filter cutoff frequency and oscillator tuning of a synth in realtime! No other controller, sans very complex Max/MSP patches, provides for such functions in an easy and immediate programming and interface environment. If you watch the video below, you can see a little bit of how I used the Lemur. While the M.I.A. patches were rather involved, I had designed a much simpler patch to control all of Studio C at Asphodel Studios/Recombinant Media Labs. I would convert most of the MIDI data from the Lemur into Control Voltage and Gate data via a Kenton Pro 2000. In this way, I was able to modulate various parameters on the modulars (Serge and SMS) simultaneously via the bouncing ball algorithms. I used such features to great extent during many auto-running demonstrations and installation pieces such as the one I designed for an AES conference open house we hosted at Asphodel.
XLR8R TV Episode 10: Asphodel and Recombinant Media Labs

"In part one of a series, XLR8R Technology editor Ken Taylor takes you on a tour of one of electronic art's finest facilities, Asphodel and Recombinant Media Labs. Comprised of an unprecedented 16.8.2 -channel, 10-screen surround-cinema performance environment with an external control room, a suite full of new and old synthesizers (all in mint condition), a DVD- and CD-mastering studio and a recording studio with top-of-the-line equipment spanning nearly every era of electronic music, Asphodel and RML is a sound artist's dream come to life. While the technology is impressive, it's only one aspect of what makes these studios special. We'll explore the facility further in future episodes.

"These are getting harder and harder to get a hold of since they went out of production earlier this year. However, for lemur-owners, there isn't much to worry about since the software is openly programmable and you create your own interfaces with the software Jazzmutant provides. The most recent advancement has been addition of the MU software, that fully bridged the gap between the Lemur's programmable interfaces and touchscreen capabilities and Ableton Live and Max for Live's expanded creative virtual devices."
"Here is a live improvisation I made. I use the JazzMutant Lemur to control the digital mixer that runs on my Sonic Core 18 DSP Scope PCI system. The level meters on the Lemur are controlled by a MIDI signal which is generated by a Scope Modular 4 patch that converts the level of the audio signal to a MIDI control change message. The Cubase arrangement is pretty empty with only one MIDI track which is controlling the JV-1080 pad sound. The rest of the sequence runs on the Nord Modular G2 and the Machinedrum. The drums from the Machinedrum run through my brand new T.C. Electronic FireworX which I bought three days ago. The FireworX is controlled by the Nocturn controller box. No softsynths or softeffects where used in this track, it's all hardware."
