Midimini V30: Monosynth/Polysynth

Published on Feb 23, 2020 StudioElectronics

"Greg St. Regis suggested I abandon my long form addiction, and parse out more digestible bits, and so I have. An added benefit: I have cherry-picked elements which don’t actually talk to each other in the normal course of business—in Part 4 (see below).
—

Part 1: Paraphonic, DAW multitracked chords, and single zone sample stretches—why do they sound so good in DP10’s Nanosampler?—are the focus here… well there is a slush/smush of everything actually (Including analog percussion & FX), although in Part 2 the emphasis will be on the bass and the wicked lines we make.

OK, we’ve covered Part 2.

Part 3: Iso leads and their deliciousness.

Part 4, you ask? My long form habit—the complete piece—which is decidedly more concise than usual.

Sometimes it’s hard to wrap my mind around how outstanding this V30 sounds. The gain staging: Oscillator levels, AMP DRIVE, FEEDBACK, Feedback Gain (FBK GAIN), and the final OUT stage, make for a vast and yet intimate micro-climate of tone, warmth and dirty, usually reserved for guitar players and their axes, amps, and pedals (lovers too). Slide on over instruments with necks; the Midimini V30 has its eyes on your prize.

And the patch points which can go #OutsToOuts keep it pushing and pulsing well beyond the call of duty.

reSEMble 2 VCO

Published on Feb 23, 2020 Randy Piscione

"Demo of a partially-built reSEMble panel. Some live noodling and knob turning. Not sure I can still concentrate on two things at once (playing and turning knobs). I have left out the 3rd VCO and the Shaper (ring mod and folder). You can choose to build it like this, at least to start, and save some time and some money. The bass was recorded earlier, using the lower row of modules, which are the separate versions of those behind reSEMble."

And also the VCV Rack patch file - Extra Patch - Lorax

Here are some patch notes:
------------------------------------------------
- The Morphagene is playing a sample of a field recording I got from a friend.
- I have a sort of a pad sound built on the MicroFreak, and it's going through LedRover for some crunch and it goes also into VCV Rack for some reverb and delay.
- I've recorded a piano from Felt Instruments into the Magneto in looper mode.
- I also have a recording of my flute on Arbhar, and I'm using its built-in reverb.
- In VCV Rack, I have some drums programmed, and they go through ReduXer and Microcell in Beat Repeat mode for some glitchy sounds.
- The O Coast is being sequenced by the Keystep, and it's going through the Mimeophon.
- The Neutron is sending 2 waves to Freak from Vult, and from there is goes to some delay and reverb. It's being sequenced from within VCV Rack also.
- The Keystep is set to Kbd Play so I can play another voice in VCV Rack on a different Midi channel.
- There's also a kick drum coming from VCV Rack.
- I'm also sending the clock from VCV Rack and splitting it to clock the Keystep, clock the O Coast, and clock the Mimeophon. "

Vermona '14/Hildegard von Bingen: "O Quam Mirabilis Est"

Published on Feb 23, 2020 Kris Lennox

"Hildegard's wonderful 'O Quam Mirabilis Est', here performed on the Vermona '14. A while back I filmed the recording of this work, but the visual was, I felt, a distraction from the music. Hands-only and/or just an image, I feel, works better.

All Gregorian Chant works I've posted I've also scored. Medieval notation is very different from standard notation, and has to be studied as an independent subject. My plan is to release the sheet music in standard notation once the volume of works posted reaches an adequate number.

Best
