A new summer - Gattobus
YouTube Published on Jun 27, 2012 by gattobus
"During my vacation I brought some of my "toys" along with me...
This video was recorded in my hotel room at night... just a quick electronic jam before going to sleep.
I used Yamaha Tenori-on, Teenage Engineering OP-1, iDensity on iPad, and monome ricochet app on Novation Launchpad.
All the instruments in sync manually... no midi!
I hope you like it.
Gattobus style ;-)"

"Bagpipes Royale" Version 2.0 for the iPad
YouTube Published on Jun 27, 2012 by tradlessons
"Here's a demo of the new reverb features in version 2.0 of "Bagpipes Royale" for the iPad.
Recording is straight from the output jack of the iPad, no external effects, this is what you hear in the headphones.
"Bagpipes Royale" includes four authentic sounding sets of Scottish and Swedish bagpipes.
This is the most realistic to play and best sounding Bagpipes app available anywhere.
Please visit the app website and watch the demonstration video!
The four sets of bagpipes are:
Great Highland Scottish Bagpipes - The most popular Scottish marching pipes, in the traditional key of Bb.
Scottish Border Pipes - A Scottish smallpipe in the key of A with a sound distinctly different from but similar to the Highland pipes.
Scottish Smallpipes - A Scottish smallpipe in the key of A, one octave lower than the Border Pipes, and has a rounder, bubbly sound.
Swedish Säckpipa - A set of Swedish bagpipes in E minor, with a very haunting sound.
All of the instruments use authentic fingerings based on the Highland chanter.

"I recorded this video during my vacation... I'm just practicing with my Eigenharp Pico.
it's been a while since my last video... but it's all right, I have a new life and I'm quite busy!
Gattobus is alive... more video to come! ;-)"
Traveling Through Grain Space
Traveling Through Grain Space from bar|none on Vimeo.
Trying to use the soundplane for something experimental which is basically a surface for traveling through a single long sample, selecting cool points and then being able to play those grains pitch-wise but with the ability to travel as well using the continuous surface.
At points if it gets disorienting, it's like trying to hone in on a radio signal using coarse and fine tuning to discover something.
Soundplane is also responding to pressure as well a x position and relative to where you first touched a pitch. I don't have y connected but I could. Pressure controls volume envelope.
arc|tangent is a new monome arc app I am working on for high resolution control of anything in a generic sense with a lot of options for routing on the fly. Resolutions are variable from highly quantized to pretty much unlimited resolution if you are willing to spin the dial enough times. Visual feedback on the arc helps you understand what is happening. This allows for very high resolution control of scrubbing through a large sample in coarse or fine increments and control of many other parameters at high or low resolution.
The sound source is Monolake - Granulator. I am just controlling it in an unusual way and with finer control than you can do with the M4L patch controls alone.
The sample is a Stretta sample of a bunch of raw takes from a modular session of his. It is totally raw unedited material.
This was a very first rough test. There are so many tweaks you can make to make the control more musical. This is very exciting and fun. Different material yields totally different results and you can approach it in many ways.

It consists of two SynthTech MOTM kits (E560 deflector shield and E580 resampling mini delay) behind an aesthetically impaired Buchla panel.

"Tracks 1-6, 8 & 10 were made with KORG DS10+ entirely, recorded directly from my Nintendo 3DS. Tracks 7 & 9 were made with Nanoloop entirely, recorded directly from my iPad."
Be sure to check out the Decktonic Ts on bandcamp (pic captured below).

I wrote these songs during a difficult time in my life, a period where I was so angry and depressed that I needed to channel my efforts into something positive. I think that in these songs, you can hear my anger, and at the same time, a hint of the healing process, a positive outlook on life, and the ever important need to never stop partying, no matter how bad things may get. This is about leaving it all on the dancefloor.

A quick note for listeners: you should use a stereo system or headphones that can reproduce the sub-bass spectrum effectively. You've been warned.
