DreamsOfWires - Arturia Minibrute SE 'Berlin School...ish'

Published on Dec 16, 2016 DreamsOfWires

"I've not been too well recently, colds etc, so I've made no new music or videos. Therefore, to puncture the silence, I thought I'd upload something that never made it onto my YouTube channel - I uploaded it to Soundcloud originally, but never recorded any video for it. I don't own the Minibrute anymore, it was a casualty of my financial situation, but it was good instrument, and some things it excelled at, such as it's playability - smooth sliders for all the waveforms, built in SH101-style sequencer etc.

This track was recorded using just the Minibrute, no other instruments, no MIDI, just an iPad for the muti-track recording and some delay/reverb, but I don't remember which apps. It was improvised starting with the sequence, then other parts were overdubbed onto it. It was a very quick recording. Enjoy... I hope."

Update: video added above.

iTunes: Pads - Lush Pad Synthesizer - Klevgränd produkter AB

"Pads is basically a wavetable synthesizer with a noise/grain generator and a high cut filter. With a carefully developed ”wobbler” that detunes the waveforms and makes small inconsistencies to several internal parameters and a nice sounding chorus, this synthesizer is able to create some really interesting and non-statical pad sounds.

Noteworthy features:

• AUv3, works with AUv3 compatible hosts like GarageBand, Cubasis, Auria, AUM etc.

• 30 handcrafted presets created by professional musicians

• Filter, Attack and volume can be modulated by velocity
