Making 2-bar patterns on the TR-808 with the 1st/2nd part function

video upload by Collector Current

"The TR-808 (or RE-808 in my case) has two ways to make longer patterns. There is the A/B function which lets you switch between two different patterns (AAAA or BBBB) or alternate (ABAB). But there is also the option to extend your pattern with a '2nd part' to make it up to 32 steps long.

This is independent of A/B so if you want you could even have 4 bars in your pattern: A1, A2, B1, B2.

In this video I show how to use the 1st/2nd part function.

Casio FZ-1 aliasing and loop cross-fading

video upload by Collector Current

"Changing the amount of loop crossfading has the side effect of changing the interpolation algorithm of the Casio FZ-1 sampler. Even when playing a non-looping sound.

At lower values, crossfading can sound like a stutter or an echo.

Ptolemy cover on RX5, TX802, SH-01A

video upload by Collector Current

"In this video I show you my cover of Aphex Twin's "Ptolemy" from the Selected Ambient Works 85-92 album.

I made the drums with the Yamaha RX5, using an RX5USB board on which I loaded Roland R-8M samples. The bass is coming from a Roland SH-01A. The other two melody parts are played on a Yamaha TX802. The three melody parts are sequenced with a Roland MSQ-700.

During the performance I keep touching the computer; that is to stop the screensaver from turning on. The computer screen shows my notes of the structure of the song.

Aegispolis cover on RX5 and TX802

video upload by Collector Current

"I've made a small setup with the Yamaha RX5, TX802 and Roland MSQ-700. To explore what's possible with these machines I tried to make a cover of Aphex Twin's Aegispolis from the Selected Ambient Works 85-92 album.

This lets me learn how to use this particular gear, and I get to learn something new about composition. I perform the whole track at the end of the video as a dub mix.

Sorry about all the dust, the sun was unforgiving today!
