sonicLAB Introduces PolyNodes Spatial Sonic Sculptor

"sonicLAB introduces PolyNodes, a spatial sonic sculptor. Developed through a collaboration between Sinan Bokesoy and Daito Manabe, PolyNodes sets a new bar for generative sound synthesis."

Playlist
1. introducing PolyNodes
2. a quick tour on PolyNodes.
3. Daito Manabe, PolyNodes presets.
4. Laurent Mialon, PolyNodes presets
5. PolyNodes driven from Live with PolyNodesRemote



"What is PolyNodes ?
PolyNodes is our cutting-edge sound synthesis / generative audio platform that is set to transform the way one interacts with sound.

PolyNodes transcends traditional sound design by expanding two-dimensional waveforms into a dynamic 3D spatial navigation experience.
PolyNodes extracts and analyzes the temporal properties of the input sound and maps them in a 3D space to create a visible geometric structure.

This pioneering approach allows to identify key sound moments as geodesic points or nodes, interconnected through a network of triangulations. The result is a multi-scale complex sonic navigation through its input material.

Multi scale Sound Composition :

The platform employs a multi-layered approach to sound composition, handling the macro, meso and micro regions of sound as temporal references.

Architectural Approach to Sound design:
Inspired by the architectural metaphor of crystalline structures, PolyNodes treats sound as a structured entity, arranging its fundamental units akins to spatial architecture, embracing the generative essence of sonic creation.

Innovative 3D Sound Navigation :

– Each sound material generates a unique 3D geometric entity based on the macro, meso and micro level onset time analysis.

– The engine features multiple playheads, known as node agents, equipped with advanced re-synthesis and signal processing techniques to navigate on the 3D entity.

– Multiple navigation strategies to chose from for the macro, meso and micro level agents.

DSP Interactables :
PolyNodes introduces DSP interactables, allawing direct interaction with the PolyNodes 3D geometry. The proximity of agents to these interactable objects determines the extent of their influence, integrating spatial interaction as a core component of sound design."

A Delightfully Lo Fi Eurorack Time Machine (Modular FX) // 3 patches with DRADD by Pladask Elektrisk

video upload by DivKid

"Here we have DRADD from Pladask Elektrisk. A Eurorack module that builds upon the Pladask pedal line, specifically the Fabrikat pedal, with 3 FX algorithms that in their own ways bend, stretch and invert time. We have highly modulate-able (plenty of CV - yay!) and characterfully lo fi granular time stretching, tapped delay networks into diffused reverbs and a digital tape style sampler for octave and playback direction shifts. Good fun and good sounds!

This video is part of my "3 patches" video series that is literally just 3 example patches. We take a look at DRADD, run down the features and take a exploratory paced looked at what the module can do."

See the Pladask Elektrisk label below for more.

Pulsar Synthesis | A Microsound recipe by Curtis Roads

video upload by Cinematic Laboratory

"Before anything else I'd like to stress that this video was triggered by the Plume from Hieroglyphic, but doesn't feature it. It's NOT intended as click-bait, it's an educational video. If you took the bait, go watch DivKid [posted here] or Tom Churchill's walkthrough [posted here].

The concept is from Curtis Roads Microsound book. I read about the subject and tried to patch a few experiments with various results. Some good, some bad, and some turned out to be amazing. This video also fits my goals for 2024, where it's not always necessary to get yourself a new module when your existing modules still have plenty to offer. Happy patching!"

SWAM Solo Strings by Audio Modeling - expressive physical modeling

video upload by CatSynth TV

"We at CatSynth are excited to present SWAM Strings from Audio Modeling, a library of expressive string instruments (violin, viola, cello, and double bass) meticulously created using physical modeling techniques. Starting with the cello, we explore most of the performance parameters, show how to automate them with a MIDI controller, and explore a few of the sub-models of the instrument. We then go on to look at the violin, double bass, and viola, again demonstrating the expressive performance possibilities.

This is the first of several videos on Audio Modeling's SWAM physical modeling instruments. In future videos we will explore the woodwinds, brass, and string sections.
