Computational Complexity

Published on Oct 12, 2016 Emefak

"This is an improvisation after a hard day of study while listening to Mac Quayle's excellent Mr. Robot OST (https://lakeshorerecords.bandcamp.com...). Great music for concentration, maybe some of it has transcended to this jam.

Pittsburgh Move 208 case loaded with a Foundation 3.1+, some Mutable (Braids, Warps, Veils, Clouds), a Befaco Rampage (first jam with it, what an awesome module) and other extras. Arturia Minibrute does the 'bassline' sequence, and Octatrack on pads and drums.

Just some reverb and delay from Ableton Live (used as a way too expensive mixer this time), and output straight to a Roland R-5 recorder. Sound is pretty bad, and there is certain clipping, although some times it even sounds right. Camera placement and lightning are terrible, but the point was to do something quick and dirty."

Rendez-vous 4 remix by Lackan

Published on Oct 13, 2016 Lackan110f

"Rendez-vous 4 is one of my favorite songs by Jean Michel Jarre, but I have always thought it was to soft produced to do the great melody justice.

So I did a up-beat cover, using only analog synthesizers. All is programmed from Logic, and the song is recorded in one take. Hope you enjoy!"

DARTBOARD SYNTH - PLAYING MUSIC WITH A DARTS?

Mother CatDrone - DSI/Oberheim OB6, Moog Mother 32, Yamaha Montage, Octave The Cat, Roland RE-301

Published on Oct 12, 2016 Earmonkey Music

"Live jam in a style I haven't done in a while....Droning both the Octave Cat and Moog Mother 32 layered. Running those through the Roland RE-301 tape delay, and adding a little reverb in Ableton. If that's not some of the fattest analog you've ever heard then, well I want to hear what you've heard. Just messing with the OB6 which uses its own on-board delay, and Montage doing its elitist Montage thing."

lucky one - Circuit Loop One (Novation Circuit)

Published on Aug 27, 2016 lucky one

"My first day with my new Novation Circuit, and my first Loop with this machine.

I just love how easy it is to program a beat and record melodies and chord. I found this first experience really inspiring! I'm happy to own this new instrument :-)"

lucky one - Warm Chill Jam (Circuit, Elektron, Moog, strymon)

"Download the mp3 here: https://soundcloud.com/lucky-one/warm...

Late night jam with my new setup, it was really pleasing :)

I just programmed a very simple beat and recorded three chords on the Novation Circuit, then started jamming right away.

The Circuit is sending midi into the Moog Slim Phatty and the Elektron Analog Keys, The audio from all three is routed in the mixer.

There is also my strymon El Capistan on the mixer send loop. I only send the Moog on the El Capistan.

Last thing is the Korg NanoKontrol, I use it to control the Elektron Analog Keys parameters (through Live and Overbridge).

I don't use the Novation Circuit Synth sounds, just the Elektron and Moog analog goodness :) :) :)

I hope you'll like this. Give me some feedback!"

4ms Quad Clocking Harmonies (Modular Lullaby)

Published on Oct 13, 2016 Richard Devine

"This patch focused on using the 4ms Quad clocking distributor (QCD) module as the main brain to trigger the drums and musical sequences. The source clocking generator was the delptronics triggerman running in pattern mode. I set up 8 stored sequences that had slightly different shifted gate positions, and then outputted these assignments to the 4 channels on the 4ms OCD, and then took those outputs into separate gate triggers for the drum/snare/high-hats. The Modcan QLFO was also being clocked from the delptronics trigger man. Running from LFO output 1 in random stepped mode causing ever changing CV changes to the CV Clock Divider/Multiplier inputs, which gave the sequencing this interesting pace. I kept the sound sources very simple and limited. Using just 3 different intellijel dixies as the main sound sources (sine waves and one square). All three being triggered and then CV controlled in slow stepped mode from the Modcan Quad LFO, then into the µScale intelligent quantizer and interval generator for the melodies. The output was running through a Strymon BigSky reverb pedal using the "Chorale" algorithm for the slow like choir pads swelling delicately from the summed VCO's. One intellijel running in low octave pitch down for added baseline effect. Drums courtesy of the Mutable Instruments Braids for the snare drum running in CLK mode, with the envelope set to "ping" short attack. The kick drum was from the JoMox Membrane II, and hi-hats from the 4-hp whitenoise output from the BlueLantern running into a intellijel HexVCA. Another direct whitenoise out from the HexVCA running into a cwejman MMF-1 filter for the slow delicate automating filter sweeps, being modulated by cwejman D-LFO. This output was then taken into the Strymon Timeline for added depth and space. This patch was specifically created as a lullaby to play at bedtime for my baby Eila. Enjoy :-)"
