Contraption


video upload by nbor

"Gearing up for Wednesday's monthly in dt San Jose. I've been trying to make the most of the small synths, as it makes for a very portable situation. With only one effect on one sound, it is all very close to the circuits and raw.

Production notes: A dawless jam run on battery power alone. Roland SH-01A, Korg Volca FM, Meeblip Geode, @1010music Blackbox, and Sensel Morph. The Roland is going through a @MerisUs LVX delay. I found the cheap and compact "G-MARK" mixer from AliExpress for frighteningly cheap. It does a darn decent job, and is crazy small.

There are a couple battery packs - a 150Wh and a 99Wh. I ended up using the 2nd because the blackbox was making too much USB noise when everything was plugged into the 150Wh. There was still quite a bit of noise, but the Izotone RX-8 does a good job cleaning that out."

Earth Fruit

"Syncing up the Buchla Music Easel with the @WeAreElektron Model Cycles, precarious techno ensues. Recorded in mono, so I dropped it into @bitwig Studio to add some stereo effects with simple multi-band separations."

Mr Morning

"Something to wake up to. Testing out the overhead with a pre-production Buchla Music Easel and lovely Meris LVX delay pedal. Getting ready to shoot some tutorials, but playtime gets in the way!"

Side by Side

"Finding the music in a new granular synth, Granular III in Ableton Live 12. I created several presets for this synth and chose two that played well together to create this ambient piece."

Macro Temporal (official video)


video upload by nbor

"Macro Temporal from '3', available on Bandcamp. https://nbor.bandcamp.com/album/3
A single take through a single looper...but I augmented the performance by taking large chunks of the 'unlooped' audio from the synthesizer and and re-arranging it in time against the looped audio."

Discrete Energies

Fan of Color


video upload by nbor

"A very low key meditation on color and sinusoids. A complex surface is rendered from sine waves, accompanied by a downtempo track. Graphics generated in @cycling74com Jitter. Audio uses @AudioDamageInc Continua and @madrona-labs Aalto."

The Chase


video upload by nbor

"I got a cool pattern going on the Microbrute and had to get it out of my system. A cheap re-cut from the amazing 'Poliziotto Sprint' (aka Highway Racer) adds some context and fun."

Live Quadraphonic Mixing in Bitwig Studio


video upload by nbor

"Download the Grid device here! https://bitwiggers.com/presets/684872...

Recently, I've been lucky to perform live sets in Quadraphonic audio. I developed some tools in Bitwig Studio to create animated soundscapes for four speakers. Using modulators and the FX Grid, I can create a huge variety of spatial audio patterns. However, Bitwig isn't really designed for this, so there's a few things you need to do to work around its stereo "bias." Despite the few hacks, it works really well, and sounds amazing. This video gives an overview of how to make everything work."

Thanks Radio


video upload by nbor

"Precipitous placement of a glass of pinot notwithstanding, I've been working with loopers and the @buchlausa Easel command. After struggling with some less desirable results, I listened to the magic of KFJC radio and it gave me some new direction. Drum sounds created on the Buchla, sampled into the @bitwig drum machine, sequenced with the Hawtin script for the Fire. I'm controlling four instances of @AudioDamageInc Enso with a Livid Minim (off screen)."

"A plethora of @buchlausa sounds fed into a @MerisUs LVX looper delay pedal, all floating on a VHS world of dreams and nightmares"

Thin Ice


video upload by nbor

"Affected by the stormy end of year, I made this track late on a cold night. 'Thin Ice' is a simple composition with complex sounds. The sounds of breaking ice are played with MPE in @AudioDamageInc Quanta 2 granular synth. @ArturiaOfficial SEM V2 synth provides a dark background, played on the LEM218. A simple generative melody from Bitwig haunts the @buchlausa Easel Command. All treated with a liberal dose of effects. Really, though, you should hear this in quad!"

Epoxification

"In celebration of the @buchlausa Program Manager card, I take a preset and play with it in 'both' mode. Extra effects applied in @bitwig studio, of course!"

Not Exactly Crochet: Needlepoint + Buchla Easel Synthesizer. Generative Sounds.


video upload by nbor

"I have been playing with the Unfiltered Audio Needlepoint plugin on a free trial, which emulates the effects of distressed vinyl LPs. You can use this as an audio source, or use to process incoming audio to make it sound like it's on a messed up record.
In this clip, I'm using one instance of Needlepoint to generate pops and clicks, which I use as an envelop for the incoming audio from a Buchla Music Easel. The other instance is processing the incoming audio from the Easel. Some semi-random modulations on the loop for the envelope follower ("Broken" parameter) and the Spindown for the other give this a generative, never-ending feeling.
I fucking love this.
