Fragment - Granular noisescapes

Published on Jan 23, 2018 Fragment Synthesizer

"Fragment is an online collaborative additive / spectral / granular / subtractive / PM live-coding web. platform, the spectrum is created by a live GPU script, the generated visual is then converted to audio by an additive/granular/spectral/subtractive/PM process.

Fragment is a programmable noise-of-all-kinds software.

This video is full of granular noises coming from 21 samples forming some granular noisescapes, some videos are played and mixed with some effects, the visual interact with the audio through pixels brightness, Renoise is used to sequence and send MIDI events to the synthesizer."

GarageBand for iOS 10: "Video Killed the Radio Star" cover

Published on Jan 22, 2018

"Here's my take on the Buggles' 1979 hit, 'Video Killed the Radio Star', using NOTHING but the fantastic on-board sounds of GarageBand for iOS10: so unbelievably powerful...

All vocal parts recorded using the internal mic, with lead vocal processed through the internal guitar amp simulator: the original 1979 vocal was played back through a VOX AC30 guitar amp to get that sound.

Everything here mixed on the iPad as well, with lots of effects not fazing it in the slightest.

'Alchemy' is an expensive sounding synth, also used on Logic Pro X, and the bass sound actually sounds like a Fender Precision."

Spotted this one on discchord.

Moog Mother 32: One Mother=Drums+Bass+Lead

Published on Jan 23, 2018 JAkoGreyshire

"This is a video response to a Moog Music Inc. video that shows how the Mother-32 can make a three part groove with some clever patching.

Moogs' video is here: [5th video in Moog's playlist here]

Half way through this video I have a Drone sound made by the Make Noise Mysteron."

Buchla Music Easel - Just a quickie...

Published on Jan 23, 2018 Genshi Media Group

"I got this little tune going on the Buchla Music Easel, so I thought I'd capture a quick video of it. The Easel is running through the TC Electronic Mimiq Doubler for stereo width and the Empress Effect Echosystem Dual Engine Delay."

Noodling with the Erica Synths Black VCO

Published on Jan 23, 2018 Molten Music Technology

"An improvised, live and unedited noodle using just the Erica Synths Black VCO as the sound source. The sequence is random and coming from the Turing Machine. Give it time for me to develop some noises! And it all comes from the monophonic Black VCO - what a great module."

More noodling with the Erica Synths Black VCO

Published on Jan 23, 2018 Molten Music Technology

"Sometimes the simplest patches are the most rewarding. This has the sine output through a Demora delay and the Sub-Mix output through the Black Polivoks VCF. Turing Machine provides the tune - I could listen to this all day without doing a thing."

Zoom: MS-70CDR - "Galactic Spaces" - 50 custom presets

Published on Jan 23, 2018 chronosproject

"50 custom presets made for wonderfull pedal Zoom MS-70 CDR
by Nick Klimenko, www.lfo.store Team.

Using algorhytms like:

Pith Shifters
Shimmer
Black Hole
Delay
Different Types of Reverberation
& Chorusing

You can dive your instrumet (synth or guitar) into cosmic abyss
to create deep ambient landscapes or play live.

All the presets can be easily loaded via usb inside the pedal
using this wondefull resource:
https://g200kg.github.io/zoom-ms-utility/

For this demo we used Korg Monologue synth with its dry initial sound.
So all the fx you hear - are going from Zoom MS-70 CDR, tempo synced.

Interactive 'harmonic trendline' audition application

Published on Jan 23, 2018 Pi Synth

"Here is my interactive organ pipe auditioner, based on the 'trendline' harmonic fingerprint system described here - http://colinpykett.org.uk/parameter-e...

The usual waveform display, but I have hijacked the metronome to use it to display log/log harmonics.

The idea is that a very small number of parameters can accurately describe the harmonic fingerprint of the sustain phase of a note generated by an organ pipe. This thing - running on the Mac but again, the Pi Synth codebase so it will run trivially on a Pi Zero - lets me twiddle knobs and instantly explore the entire parametric space.

The methodology desribed by Pykett requires 4 floats to describe a pipe. I have modified this to add 2 more parameters that allow an individual harmonic in the fingerprint to be boosted or cut, which lets a single non-trendline outlier harmonic be correctly modelled. Also I have allowed the 'even harmonic cut' to be an 'even harmonic cut/boost'.

The six parameters are mapped to 6 MIDI CCs, and I can sit sit and twiddle. Tunelessly. But allowing A/B listening against a field recording to rapidly converge to an accurate setting for a given rank at a given note. Nice."

Joe Hertz - Access Virus TI2 Synth - Gear Guide

Published on Jan 23, 2018 FACTmagazine

"A must-have synth according to the Brixton producer.

Late last year, electronic R&B rising star Joe Hertz treated us to an excellent Against The Clock at his South London studio. But, we wondered at the time, what's the deal with the Virus TI2 bit of hardware by Access he used during that session?

We asked Joe to give us rundown of that most treasured instrument, explaining to us why the Virus TI2 is one of the most unique synths on the market.

In the video, Joe breaks down its key features and demonstrates how easy, versatile and user-friendly it is. One word: want."
