ERBE-VERB THUNDER | Make Noise

"With the Erbe-Verb and Morphagene, we can apply heavy manipulation of space, but also perhaps disrupt time.

Designing A Case For Percussion // Eurorack with SP404 & Digitakt

video upload by Michael Manning

"My new album: https://sovnrecords.bandcamp.com/albu...

In this video I talk through my process of using a small ALM 52hp Eurorack Case to expand my percussion options within a setup. It is driven via a Digitakt which feeds into an African rhythm derived trigger module. Everything is then fed into an SP404.

This is the basis for my attempt at creating and performing live music. In the future I hope to show more developments into this process and eventually film a live set for this channel."

via Kickstarter

"Hi, I'm Kim Bjørn, the founder of Bjooks. We're an independent publishing company at the intersection of music, visual arts, history, engineering, and pop culture. My first book was funded via Kickstarter in 2017, and since then we have done two other successful Kickstarter campaigns and released another four books - seven titles in total. THE MINIMOOG BOOK is our most vital project yet, documenting and delving deep into the iconic electronic instrument that has shaped generations of musicians and songs. We've already spent a massive amount of funds on exclusive photography, research, and production - and we need your help in getting the last bits together to release this important title.

We’re deeply privileged to bring this beautiful book to Kickstarter for our loyal readers and enthusiasts everywhere. Your support in making this labor of love a reality will mean the world to us, the music world - and hopefully you as well :)

Please check out the campaign and select a reward - your support is highly appreciated, and we can't wait to get this visually stunning and informative coffee table book in your hands later in the year.

Thanks,
Kim Bjørn, Copenhagen, April 2024"

Thank you for watching.
My name is Meska of the statik collective . I've been making mostly "dark and expérimental" music for more than ten years now, i'v learn so much online, now it's time for me to share my knoledge, my exploration and this channel is a place to talk about the tools, sound design and techniques to make music with.

Synapse Audio Dune 3 - "Retro Future" Soundset (50 presets)

video upload by LFOstore

The future rests on the past, and the popularization of the sounds of the 80s and 90s today is a natural phenomenon. But what if you preserve the taste and style of those good times, but add a modern look, quality and wide modulation capabilities? The result will be a fresh sound, which is presented in the new soundset for DUNE3!

In this soundset, LFO Store’s leading sound designer, Otto K. Schwarz, has prepared some beautiful analog bass sequences, stylized drum sections, a wide variety of bright lead instruments and plucks, warm pads and other interesting sound solutions! All the presets come with advanced modulation techniques - with modulation wheel, velocity and expression assigned, which allows you to modulate and customize the sounds deeply, to the needs of your own musical works.

These sounds are suitable for both studio work and live performances, and may be used in the different styles of music - ambient, cinematic, electronic dance music and so on. Prepare yourself for the new discoveries and insights!"

MIDI TOOLS VOLUME ONE by Philip Meyer

video uploads by Isotonik Studios

AVAILABLE HERE: https://isotonikstudios.com/product/midi-tools-by-philip-meyer/

"This is a collection of 12 devices for making rhythmic music in Ableton Live 12. They are some of the first Max for Live MIDI Tools, which is a new class of Live device that generates and transforms MIDI clips.

I’ve always liked to make complex rhythmic music, but in the past I found the piano roll in Live to be clunky and tedious to use. MIDI Tools resolve this problem by allowing us to create simple devices that automate processes that would be tedious or impossible to execute manually. Every device in this collection is designed to help you make exciting, novel rhythmic music quickly and playfully.

The 'quickly and playfully' is really important to me. For me, making electronic music has always been about getting a pattern running, listening to it, then tweaking it with whatever knobs and sliders are available to me. Working this way puts you in a sort of dialog with the machine, where you’re acting, then listening, then acting, then listening, and so forth. This process works best when the cycles are fast, which means that the tools have to be fun and easy to use. They have to deliver results quickly.

I could summarize the practical value of these tools with three statements:

They generate ideas to get my creativity flowing

They all you to create rhythms (such as nested rhythms, rallentandos, and polyrhythms) that are very difficult to create using the piano roll interface

They help you create variations on rhythmic and melodic ideas, to make your music varied and interesting. I’ve also found that the power of these devices really emerges when you use them in serial workflows. By this I mean that you start with some initial MIDI (maybe from a Generator, or maybe not), then process the MIDI with several different transformers.

You can see an example of a serial process in THIS VIDEO, in which I create some rhythmic containers using the Blocks generator, then used the Divs transformer to subdivide those containers to create a new rhythm, then used Feel to dial in the groove. There’s tons of ways to mix and match the devices, which means lots of space to develop your own favorite approaches.

These devices all work with Ableton 12’s new Scales feature. When a scale is enabled on the MIDI clip, the device will only produce notes that are in key. If you disable the scale, then you can work chromatically. The devices are also aware of Live’s themes, so your devices will always match the look and feel of your Live set."

Nonconformist Controllable Crunch // Neutral Labs Elmyra2

video upload by Starsky Carr

"Dirty, crunch, experimental and lo-fi spring to mind once you start playing with this.. It can be more gentle, but its character is definitely happier on dark side (ironic as I got the new white version).

The Elmyra2 from Neutral Labs is a 4 voice wavetable eurorack semi modular synth with a grungy delay, multimode filter and a circuit bending along filter.... what's not to like!

In this I make a few demo tracks exploring different ways to play it.. from simply using the touch pads, to triggering from drums. outputs and a sequencer and playing via CV and Gate from the Keystep as well as using the internal sequencer.

Lots to play with, and hours of meditative pleasure tweaking to perfection.
