Derek Holzer-Studio Improv 30 Apr 2012

Derek Holzer-Studio Improv 30 Apr 2012 from macumbista on Vimeo.

Getting the computer out of my live sound was the best thing that ever happened to me. When I work with the modular synthesizer, I feel like I have a piece of clay in my hands which I can squeeze in any direction I choose. This short improvisation was made during filming of a documentary on sound artists in several European cities by London College of Communication students Dann Linn and Marianna Sangita.

You might remember the MIDIPal originally announced here back on January 10th 2012, and mentioned in this interview with Mutable Instruments Olivier Gillet back on September 10, 2011. It is now available on the Mutable Instruments website here.

Shruthi-1 in the studio

Shruthi-1 in the studio from mutable instruments on Vimeo.

A video featuring the Shruthi-1 in composer/pianist Frank Herrgott's home studio. Frank composed the track and we had a blast "shruthifying it" by recording all elements with (or through) the Shruthi-1. The main protagonists are 3 SMR4 Shruthi-1s and EHX boxes, with help from:

* A CEM3379 Shruthi-1 (kick)
* A Fender Rhodes processed through a Shruthi-1 filter + tremolo combo
* A Solina clone from Hohner through a Shruthi-1 auto sweep
* Two tracks of guitar... sent through a Shruthi-1 wah + tremolo program

Vocals are the only elements not going through the Shruthi-1 - they have been processed by a software vocoder / voice transformer.

Alesis Andromeda doing a Minimoog impression

Alesis Andromeda doing a Minimoog impression by CoolColJ
"This reminds me of a MiniMoog

I find that the feedback used in place of the actual filter resonance to be better than 24db filter resonance when used in series.
Used the 12db filter inline with the 24db to overdrive it, with and without feedback. Keep the ENV3 (Amp/VCA) level low under 80, I used 56 here, and the level knob on the far right under 80 as well. Gets rid of that harsh sound, especially as resonance is cranked up.

A6 doesn't have much head room compared to the discrete designs it was based on - even then when low levels are used, the noise isn't a problem, no worst than a JP8 for example, your just clipping it less :)"
