Kommander E350

YouTube Published on Aug 2, 2012 by ISOTROPOSPHERE

"Testing out the new Koma Kommanders to control my modular synth.

Please note that Koma elektronic has mentioned that Doepfer cables are 100 percent able to utilize all four jacks on the Kommanders as the jacks are quite closely spaced together. I am only using the four cv jacks here, no gate jacks.

CV from Kommander B, if you can see the label stickers in the video, is going to the Intellijel HEXvca and controlling two channels there with cv I and cv II.

CV from Kommander A is going to the E350 Morphing Terrerium and cv I is for X/Y waves and cv II is for Z wave control.

CV for the 1 v/oct input on the E350 frequency is coming from the Flame knob recorder which turned out to be very useful as the E350 range in it's three modes is kind of narrow and all the random voltage sources I have kept pegging the range to it's high point. The knob recorder I was able to control the cv in the range and record a little cv sequence to be used here in the video.

I was surprised to see that my camera actually picks up the infrared lamps on the Kommanders and shows them as little white circles on the Kommanders. These things are FUN!!!"

I heard the Poly-61 used Korg filters based on the SSM204, while the Polysix used SSM2044. Anyone know the details? The 61 did use SSM2056 for the EGs. Via the sequencer.de wiki.

Update: video re-uploaded.

The first channel makes possible to the user to select between the original signal from the divider and from the multiplier. In the second channel the user can choose between the signal divided or multiplied by two. In the third channel the options are, the signal divided or multiplied by four. With this set-up up to eight different mixer options are possible which creates a wide range of sonic possibilities."

"I'm going to be doing the last performance of the summer at SPIN nightclub in San Diego on Aug 4th. A pounding 136bpm Acid Techno stomper of a set, with psychodelic accents, vocal samples from Katy Rokit and some of my favorite vinyl, and a whole lot more. The set is about 1.5 hours at this point, using only the machinedrum, octatrack and a 303 with some Boss pedals. No loops.. this is a pure live hardware performance. The next time I'm likely to play out is when @DanielTroberg comes out from Sweden again. Then we are going back to back, battle style! I'll update you with a recording after the show! -shagghie / highsage"

During the first half of 3rd year at ECAL, I made an installation project based on the visualization of sound. I am interested in how the spectator is immersed in the interactive piece in the presence of this element. I decided to continue my research on the themes of sound and atmosphere.

Sona is an experimental game on iPad inspired by the classic "Simon game." The universe is composed of enigmatic sound paintings that the spectator must solve through simple interactions. The game is played with headphones to focus attention on the sound.

This project allowed me to study in detail the acoustic phenomena and how we store and perceive sounds. The immersion and sound have become essential elements for me in an interactive project.
