Testing 9 Experimental Pedal Combinations – Ambient, Loops & Sound Design

video upload by A Last Picture From Voyager

"In this video, I test 9 experimental guitar pedal combinations for ambient loops, textures, and sound design.
If you feel stuck using the same pedals in the same way, experimenting with new pedal chains can unlock fresh ideas.
Even without the same pedals, this walkthrough can help you imagine new ways to use your own gear for ambient and experimental music.

Let me know in the comments if any of these combinations sparked new ideas for you.

00:00 Glitch loop into sliced loop - Stamme[n] + Count To 5
01:15 Random pitched loop into modulated filter - Phantom Limb + Riemman's Grave
02:57 Pitched freeze and sound degradation - Onward + Lossy
04:27 Filter into delay effect loop - Taken + Hosta
05:07 Modulation into Freeze synth effect loop - Superego + Shallow Water
06:23 Time stretching into dynamic pitched freeze - Stamme[n] + Onward
07:50 Time stretching into k-field modulation - Stamme[n] + Shallow Water
08:54 Random pitched loop into resonatr reverb - Phantom Limb + Transmisser
10:13 Error glitch into Time stretching - Onward + Stamme[n]
11:21 .... juste some fun with Shallow Water"

"The purpose of 'TEST SERIES' is to focus on the sound design possibilities of various gear combinations. This series is not musical nor does it serve as an instructional video. It is all about sound potential.

Improvisation - Count to 5, 0-Coast, Tape & Microsound machine

video upload by junklight

"Should you be one of the rare people who listens for more than a few seconds - the improvisation is in two parts with a small gap in-between

I've wanted a Montréal Assembly Count to 5 for ages. One came up at just the right time on Reverb recently and here we are. The 0-Coast seems to have taken over duties from my DPO on lead

The strings in the Morphagene are from Spitfire Tundra which I don't think I've ever used for anything much like media composition but I have had tremendous value from!"

Modular + Pedals

Playlist:

1. Modular + Pedals #1: Rings - Boss DM-2w

Self-playing ambient patch. Patch notes below.

Boss DM-2w connected and modulated via ALM Busy Circuits S.B.G Stompbox Gateway.

Patch notes:

ALM Busy Circuits Pamela's New Workout is supplying pitch CV, modulation, and triggers for the whole patch.

Channel 1 and 2 are running two different euclidean patterns of attenuated and offset random CV, those are joined by the precision adder on Mutable Instruments Links and then sent to the Intellijel uScale II, and then to Rings.

Channels 3, 4, 7 and 8 are sending LFO to brightness, frequency, damping and position on Rings.

Channel 6 is sending triggers to the trigger in on Clouds.

Channel 5 is sending a heavily attenuated random CV to the EXP input on the S.B.G, which is then converted to expression pedal, and sent to the expression pedal input on the Boss DM-2w.

All channels on Pam's are making heavy use of the random step skipping.

Mutable Instruments Rings is in sympathetic strings mode with 4 note polyphony. The odd output is patched into the input of the S.B.G, out to the Boss DM-2w and back again, and from there to the Clouds.

Boss DM-2w is in the custom mode, with medium feedback.

Mutable Instruments Clouds is the last step in the patch, adding some extra ambience and some stereo movement.
