Korg - New Music Always OKGO contest - Infinity Night Sky

Published on Apr 18, 2016 RonoTron

Cool little video I spotted on discchord.

"Hi everyone, This is my music video submission for the Korg - New Music Always OKGO contest.
If you like my music, follow me on Soundcloud:
https://soundcloud.com/ronotron

It took few weekends to write this song. I tried to combine both digital soft synths and physical hardware from Korg. Playing and creating notes along with real-time projection feedback and visualization, making music in a very immersive way allowed me to see a different perspective.

Used the following Korg instruments in the order of their appearance:

Korg Volca Sample for bells, drones, and clicks
Korg Gadget (Chiang Mai)
Korg Monotron Delay (x2) for delay and feedback effects
Korg Taktile 49 to sequence MIDI notes and arps
Korg KP3+ for chain effects, noises
Korg Gadget (Dublin) for intro lead patterns
Korg Volca Beats for drum parts and patterns
Korg Volca Keys for primary leads
Korg Volca Bass for bass notes and secondary leads
Korg Gadget Helsinki for saw (ending melody)
Other Korg Gadgets for subtle ambient textures (Bilbao, Marseille, Wolfsburg)

Primary camera (top-down): Samsung Note 5
Secondary camera (close): Panasonic GX1
Projection computing system: HP Sprout

Video captured using FRAPS. Graphics rendered in real-time via Space Engine.

Live Jam #31 - Ambient / Techno - Arturia Beatstep Pro and Eurorack modular synthesizer

Published on Apr 20, 2016 TRM

"Arturia Beatstep pro is sequencing two voices. One is the Dixie II through the uFold and MMG. uFold folds is modulated with a lfo from the a143-4 with a clocked reset. The second voice is the Doepfer a143-4 through the wasp filter. The Quadra is providing AD envelopes which are tweaked a lot. BSP is also sequencing drums. Kick and hihat are from Peaks, snareisch sound is noise through the LxD. Snare hihat and noise form MFB dual lfo random out are mixed and passed through the Synthrotek Echo.

Stuff used:
Arturia Beatstep Pro and Eurorack modular synthesizer with:

Doepfer: a-118, a-119, a-124, a-143-4, a-148, a-156, a-160-2, a-199
Intellijel: Dixie II, uFold, Quadra, 2xTriat , Linux, mult
Make noise: MMG, Lxd
Mutable instruments: Peaks
MFB: Dual LFO
Synthrotek: Echo

Audio via the Behringer mixer to a Moto Ultralite MK3 hybrid.
External effects: T.C electronics M350 for delay.

No post processing."

Make Noise Tempi Tests

Published on Apr 19, 2016 Genshi Media Group

"This is just a couple of quick and simple tests of the Make Noise Tempi. First test was Tempi strumming Mutable Instruments Rings (via the Sputnik Selector) and the second test was Tempi (again, via the Selector) triggering both the Basimilus Iterates and Mutable Instruments Peaks' channel one (kick drum mode.) In-between these two tests is a short interlude because I liked the patch and wanted to capture it on video (had nothing to do with the Tempi.) There is influence and modulation happening via the Richter Wogglebug and Peaks' second channel in LFO mode. Everything is being processed by Mutable's Clouds module... The next video (probably tomorrow evening) will be my first test of the Intellijel Metropolis, and after that, it will be time to get down to serious music making once again; putting all of these elements together (the Eurorack system, the three Moog Mother-32s, the Kilpatrick Audio Phenol, the Elektron Octatrack, etc.)"

Cacti - Modular Performance

Published on Apr 19, 2016 anthony burchell

"This is the Mutable Rings being sequenced by the Antimatter Brain Seed which is being clocked by the metropolis that is controlling the z3000 bass. The elements is getting a copy of the pitch cv from the metropolis and its fm is being modulated by the pressure points going through the Intellijel µscale quantizer."

ContinuuCon 2016 Announced

via Haken Audio

"Continuum Enthusiasts –

ContinuuCon will be June 9-11 in Asheville NC. Asheville is in a beautiful part of the USA, even more amazing than central Illinois where I live. (Here in Illinois we have both kinds of plants, corn *and* soybeans, so central Illinois is pretty cool too, but come here some other time.) If you are unfamiliar with Asheville, check out this short video showing Asheville time-lapsed dawn-to-dusk, and you may be inspired to join us:
http://www.onlyinyourstate.com/north-carolina/asheville-nc-video-time-lapse/

ContinuuCon is being organized by Asheville area Continuum owners, and is sponsored by the Bob Moog Foundation, MakeNoise, and ExperimentalSynth.com. I am really pleased they are doing it – I was not involved in organizing the event, but Ed Eagan and I will drive there to join everyone taking part.

ContinuuCon is not a sales event, and there will be no special announcements or sales hype at ContinuuCon. The idea of ContinuuCon is that we all come together, get to know each other, and learn from each other. I will give a talk/demonstration that will show you much of the process of building a Continuum (including a live demonstration of the Continuum-Playing Lego Robot I use for testing Continuums), and I will show some of the Continuum insides and how explain why the Continuum has all those expensive guts, and I will bring some historical artifacts. But that’s just my talk, there will be lots of other presentations, concerts, and sharing of playing techniques, sound design techniques, and ideas. You will see some new things people are working on, including Ed’s new Surface Shaper he is bringing from Canada, and Christophe’s Wireless Remote he is bringing from France. (Speaking of Christophe, be sure to ask about his experience with Vangelis.)

I am thrilled ContinuuCon is happening. It is all being organized by people that purchased a Continuum and have gotten to like it enough to organize the conference. I can’t express how thankful I am that the Continuum means so much to people.

Thanks,
Lippold

PS: The official website is www.ContinuuCon.com – check it out, then buy your tickets!

PPS: If you want to give a presentation or performance, I don’t know if times are still available, I am not an organizer of this event – but you can email continuucon@gmail.com … If you are one of those Famous Individuals but do not want to give a presentation or performance or talk, that’s fine too, just come lurk!

PPPS: A message from Sally Sparks (of Asheville NC): Don't forget to snag your tickets for ContinuuCon 2016 before the end of the month to ensure the lower rate!"
