Monome Norns o-o-o script w/ Soma Lyra-8

video upload by Andre Bregegere

"In this video, I explore the sonic possibilities of the o-o-o ("odashodasho") script, a fun generative sequencer (also boasting its own FM synthesis engine!) for the Monome Norns. I am pairing it with the Lyra-4, a touch-sensitive synthesizer known for its organic, often unpredictable textures and its ability to create complex, evolving drones and tones.

This session was fully improvised, letting the interaction between the two instruments guiding the performance. it was recorded live and lightly mastered in Pro Tools.

Bastl BitRanger & Soma Cosmos: Live Patching & Looping [NoTalking]

video upload by Andre Bregegere

"Today I am exploring the bitRanger, a collaboration between Casper Electronics and Bastl Instruments. It is a patchable analog logic synthesizer that allows for the creation of a wide range of sounds, from drones to arpeggios, through its unique patching system.

The bitRanger is processed through the Cosmos ‘Drifting Memory Station,' a unique (and awesome!) asynchronous multitrack looper/delay by Soma Laboratory.

This performance was recorded live:, and lightly mastered in Pro Tools. This is a long one, with very minimal editing: feel free to skip around using the chapters below!

Audiothingies MicroMonsta 2 - Overview and Sound Design

video upload by Andre Bregegere

"The MicroMonsta 2 is a small-but-mighty desktop synthesizer by @audiothingies . In this video, I give a brief overview of the device's functionality and user interface, then explore factory presets, make a patch from scratch, and look at my own user presets.

This video is an overview, and is in no way meant as an exhaustive review—I left a lot of more advanced features unaddressed (e.g., MPE, Wavetables, PWM, Filter Mod, Bitimbral/Combi modes).

Also, Please not that I bought this device with my own funds, and bear no relation whatsoever with the manufacturer (Audiothingies). The opinions expressed in this video are mine.
