Happy Halloween!!!

I hope it's a good one. The following is a short video I made with the SuONOIO.

YouTube via matrixsynth | October 31, 2010

"http://www.sonoio.org/

Single oscillator on the SuONOIO. No external processing. Sample-A set to rhythmic loop with no mods set. Delay A added followed by Crystal effect which gives the delay feedback an octave-up effect - it's the shimmer sound. Reverse mod and Distortion effects then added. The over saturation and distortion is on purpose. Unfortunately the bass wasn't fully captured, and it's a bit noisy. It sounds better/fuller in the studio. Anyway... Enjoy the rhythmic distorted subtleties. I love this thing.

Happy Halloween folks!
