Ambient w/ OP-1 field, Field Kit, wavestick : Nullify 2025-08-09 by atnr


video upload by atnr

"‪@teenageengineering‬ OP-1 field, ‪@homebakeinstruments8214‬ wavestick, ‪@KOMAelektronik‬ Field Kit, and ‪@KORG_INC‬ SQ-1 A piece where gentle harmonies meet a melody that fades in and out, layered with fragments of radio static.

On the Field Kit, the AUX send is routed out to the NTS-3 and returned to INPUT 1.

The wavestick is sequenced by the SQ-1 and processed through the ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ MOOD MK II.

The main harmony comes from the OP-1 field; the other parts are from Kontakt."

Luke Million Studio Tour Update July 2025


video upload by Luke Million

"Following the Studio Tour Video I made last November, here is an update with recent acquisitions and changes to my workflow in my Studio.

Some highlights are the Moog Messenger, Arturia DrumBrute Impact 1984 Edition, Synido TempoPAD C16, Aly James Lab Vprom 3.0, Beyerdynamic DT1990 Pro, Modartt Pianoteq 8 and some Franklin Audio Devices.

The biggest change is in my 2nd Studio where the B Team is kept. I have connected those synths to a Franklin Audio SS-6 Switchable Input Stereo DI which then sends audio to my Universal Audio Volt 476 interface connected to a Macbook Pro Laptop.
