Terraforming | Extending Soma Lab's Terra with midi

video upload by

"When I started this journey I was looking forward to use the Terra MPE mode as a fancy controller. I made a video, and deleted it later because it didn't meet my expectations compared to dedicated controllers like the Linnstrument and the Seaboard. The old video ended with a lot of speculation and a nice patch with Terra and a modular setup. It wasn't any good. But I could not let it rest either.

It did not use the knob/sensor mappings and I did not check how it would behave as a controller for an MPE PC/VST setup. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't spectacular. Terra uses fixed Midi CC messages, and my VST did not support midi learn. It was another dead end. Yesterday I decided to make a CC mapping for the Endorphin_es Shuttle Control and tried a full modular MIDI to CV route, mapping all Terra's knobs and the ABCD sensors. This turned out to work really well. This video is not intended as a 'how to do it', because I am still working on it. It also requires the right eurorack modules and there are just too many converters/options.

It's been a connectivity nightmare that took way too much time and energy. But now my Shuttle has a preset mapping and I can now start experimenting and exploring. I really enjoyed the music and sounds that emerged along the ride. The footage I used is from Iceland."

Synths No Talking: Expressive E Osmose and Linnstrument MPE

video upload by Synths No Talking

"The Linnstrument controlling the Haken Eagenmatrix in the Expressive E Osmose. This is because I have yet too see a video where the Linnstrument is used with the Osmose. Now you have one. They get along so well together.
Disclosure: I paid for these instruments on my own and were not provided by any single maker. The music is improvised and I own all content.

Synths No Talking: GS E7 Synthesizer Linnstrument MPE and Expressive E Osmose MPE

video upload by Synths No Talking

"The GS E7 and Linnstrument.
Many don't know the GS E7 analog synth fully supports MPE. I have used it with the linnstrument. Enjoy the weirdness.

Synths No Talking: GS E7 and Expressive E Osmose MPE


"Another MPE Video with the GS E7, featuring the Expressive E Osmose.
Not going to lie, as much as I love the linnstrument, I think the Osmose is a better fit for the GS E7."

Modulating LinnDrum with CV

video upload by Bata

"Messing around with an LFO off a Stereo Tapped Delay being sent to the CV ins on the back on the LinnDrum. These allow you to mess with the pitch of the Snare and Sidestick or Congas and Toms with CV. This LinnDrum has Timbales sounds instead of Congas so those are getting tuned instead."

LinnDrum Drum Machine From 1982

video upload by Bata

"Messing around with an old LinnDrum. This is probably my favorite drum machine. This one is in pretty rough shape and loves to crash over and over until it finally stabilizes. This LinnDrum has timbales eproms instead of the conga sounds."
