♥ Made By Heart - - - 4 - - - Audiovisual Jam Driven By The Heartbeat
video upload by Perplex On
"Jamming along my own heartbeat. Using an early alpha of an app by @floverse292 which uses the #applewatch to send a midi note with every heartbeat. I'm using this note further in various ways. First, it's used to cycle through 3 preprogrammed note sequences (with different step lengths and speed) in Rozeta Cells app, going into #purepiano. Secondly, the incoming midi pulses tap the master clock in AUM, resulting in ongoing timing variations including the delay effect which is synced to the master clock. And thirdly, the midi note is used to modulate the speed of the projected visuals to visualize the rhythmic flow of the heart pulses.
Added texture to all this with #UASilo, #UAlofiaf and #Rymdigare."
BLOOM / Klavis TWO BITS / Metabolic Devices MOONWALKER / Jolin AGOGO / eurorack jam
video upload by BRiES
"I'm really loving the sound of the LPGs in Agogo. It gives the sound some bite without being full on saturated. Even with tame sounds it can really bring some life to the timbre...
Two Bits is used to add triggers (OR) together for the kicks and snare. I used a steady pattern for both of them, and then added a probability gate to the second intputs. Very convenient for adding variation to drums without too much programming.
Moonwalker is doing the 'sync' lead type sound (the module is off screen but you can see its output on the scope. I'm also still trying to find a reverb setting that I really like. This one is... almost there."

Lisa Bella Donna's hidden sonic sanctuary
video upload by EarthQuakerDevices
"Join us as we take a detailed tour of Lisa Bella Donna's legendary home studio, Appalachian Recordings, deep in the Appalachian mountains of the eastern United States. Lisa is a longtime friend of Jamie Stillman’s since before the inception of EarthQuaker Devices in the early 90s, when they would play punk house shows together. Lisa is a renowned recording artist, composer, sound designer, modular synthesist and educator.
In this incredible episode of Show Us Your Junk, Lisa talks about her early inspirations that led her to start playing music, and eventually using electronic synthesis to craft the unique voice that she envisioned. After hearing Black Sabbath's “Paranoid” and Wendy Carlos's “Switched on Bach” and “Sonic Seasons,” it became clear that music was her destiny. Her stories include recording and editing commercial jingles in the 80s, selling her car to put a down payment on an Arp 2600 synthesizer, and discovering the rich characteristics of recording to 8-track tape.
While this studio packs in a ton of rare gear, Lisa claims she doesn’t consider herself a collector. “My choices are very utilitarian; pretty much everything in here is here for a purpose, and it’s part of the big picture - the great stream of what my albums become,” she says. Some of her staple instruments include the ARP 2600, ARP Odyssey, ARP Omni, Mini Moog, and Fender Rhodes. EQD pedals she frequently uses include the Rainbow Machine, Arpanoid, and Grand Orbiter, but her favorite EQD pedal is the Avalanche Run. She loves it so much that she had a custom rack mount version built, which is patched directly to her main console. “It's one of my favorite reverbs still - one of my most used for sure.”
Lisa has an interesting perspective when it comes to connecting music to visual concepts in nature and her environment. “When I compose music, I see it just as much as I hear it. I look at my arrangements as landscapes or deep woods mountain paths with all the textures and colors of the elements that surround it,” she says. This all makes sense when you see the picturesque plot of land in which she chose to settle down to build her studio and raise her daughter.
