Artist Interview: Surkin

YouTube Uploaded by PropellerheadSW on Dec 15, 2011

"When a young Benoit Heitz saw a friend's computer running Reason he had an epiphany: "His computer isn't better than my parent's computer. That means I could be making music." He started out not knowing the first thing about drums or music in general. Three years later he was touring the world as an international DJ. Surkin had us over to check out his wild yet danceable cut-up sample work."

Proloop iPhone Looping App Demo

YouTube Uploaded by ipadloops on Dec 15, 2011

"ProLoop is a powerful and flexible loop instrument for professional musicians as well as hobbyists. Use it as a live electronic instrument by itself or as an addition to your other gear, or just play around with it and explore the possibilities!

It can play up to 6 loops simultaneously and besides changing the volume each loop can also be pitched/transposed, reversed, muted, panned, ring/frequency/phase-modulated by any other loop, and
synchronized to a masterloop.

Pitch can be smoothly adjusted or quantized to a musical unit such as octaves, semitones or a custom division of an octave. Or put it in sync-mode to automagically fit the length of the choosen masterloop.

The sync offset can be adjusted to have loops sync at other positions than their start, and the sync can be turned off individually to allow the loops to have different lengths to create ever-changing layers of soundtextures.

There is also a Freeze FX that lets you temporarily "freeze" a loop with adjustable grain size and position.

You can control all the loops in real-time, and multi-touch will let you adjust several parameters simultaneously, for example crossfading by changing the volume of two loops at the same time.

ProLoop comes bundled with many loops by professional musicians that you can use and play around with, and demo sessions to get you started, but the real power comes by the fact that you can record your own loops straight into ProLoop or upload your own professionally recorded soundfiles to ProLoop through your web-browser! You can also paste audio from other music apps into ProLoop.

What's New in Version 1.2.1

- added support for Retina Display
- plays audio in "handsfree" speaker
- app now exits properly

Proloop is available for $5.99

Octatrack meets Monotron

YouTube Uploaded by erasemusic on Dec 15, 2011

"An example of how one simple soundsource can be used over all 8 tracks in the Elektron Octatrack to form the basis of one complete song. The trig mode Chromatic was heavily used to create the melodies and basslines. The realtime sampling is made direct and what seems to be a transpose done from the Monotron is just sampling a different pitch from it in realtime. All tracks originates from the exact same sample which is made in the moment. The last part resamples the first part and makes use of the random LFO to startpoint modulation to create a controlled mayhem."

TC-11 Multi-Touch Synthesizer - Performance Demo

"TC-11 is a fully programable multi-touch synthesizer for the iPad. This video demos some of the 64 included presets, and shows the multi-touch performance and device motion control.

TC-11 uses multi-touch control like no other app. The relationships between touches are controllers that drive synthesis. Since TC-11 is fully programable, any touch controller can change any synthesis parameter.

It's been a long road to finish the app, but it's live and out there. I hope you enjoy it!"



"TC-11 is the fully programmable, professional multi-touch synthesizer for the iPad. Choose from the 64 included presets, or build your own using touch controls, device motion, and on-board modules. Create music with the next evolution of synthesizer control!

FEATURES:

√ 64 built-in presets
√ Unlimited user patches
√ Fully controlled by multi-touch / device motion
√ 21 modular synthesis objects
√ 22 oscillator waveforms
√ 3 controller modules: AHDSR, LFO, Sequencer
√ Email custom patches to your friends
√ Full display customization

MULTI-TOUCH CONTROL:

There are no on-screen knobs, keys, or sliders to fiddle with; all synthesis is driven by your multi-touch performance. Touch relationships like distances / angles / timings perform all the controller functions. It's just you and the full screen multi-touch performance area.

EVERY synthesis parameter can be controlled by ANY multi-touch controller. The patch possibilities are limitless!

DEVICE MOTION CONTROL:

Use the iPad's accelerometer, gyroscope, and even the compass to attack your synthesis patch! Tilt and move the iPad to change any filter, effect, or module. You can create real vibrato by moving the iPad during performance, or change the speed of a sequencer by tilting forward and backward!

SYNTHESIS:

TC-11 has 8 voice polyphony for full, real-time synthesis. The audio engine has been highly optimized to deliver crisp, responsive performance. Choose from 22 oscillator waveforms, 3 oscillator types, 3 filter types, 4 unique effects, amplitude modulation, and panning control.
