"Semi-random half-angry sequence (Doepfer analog modular system)

Hello ! My name is Frederic Gerchambeau. I have made this movie and this music. The music has been made using a Doepfer analog modular system.
Enjoy !"

AIRA - Miami Music Week

Published on Mar 30, 2014 RolandChannel·838 videos

"The Roland crew hit Miami Music Week with the AIRA gear and we thought we'd show you some of what happened. We shared AIRA with a lot of big artists and, as you can see, it caused quite a stir and blew a lot of minds They jammed, performed, and even DJ'd their own VIP party - live - for literally hours. And nobody dared hit the STOP button once. This is just a taste of what happens when AIRA comes to town. More to come..."

Floor Jam Fun

Published on Mar 30, 2014 ISOTROPOSPHERE·124 videos

"Moved to the floor after moving some gear around for better use, this is the jam and fun that followed.

Left side. Suitcase synthesizer I fabricated from a case which was being discarded. Two rows of euro rack on the bottom, side panel with power couplings available, and the Technosaurus 2100 upper portion. This is my beloved small wonders series all snug behind custom panels with jacks patching out the various connections for each device. Huge thanks again to Jurg for getting them operational again. WARNING- Technosaurus small wonders devices are NOT designed to share a power supply with other devices or one another. Save your device, keep it powered solely. The right side is the Super Synthesis Super 37 modular keyboard controller which is controlling the three voices I am using here. The S37 is a one off custom build in conjunction with David's personal unit anodized in green with my own hand made Padouk wood side panels. Voice one - Din Sync OSC303 triangle wave to Blue Lantern Diode filter, Doepfer ADSR and VCA for this voice. Voice two, Technosaurus Microcon to Delptronics Ring Mod and out to mixer. Voice three is the MFB Kraftzwerg eurorack module in the S37 using the adsr for one oscillator, a little from the noise source and adsr two on the filter. All three voices then sent through the Synthrotek pre-development echo module with my custom faceplate. Other modules for the drums from Delptronics and Din Sync, timing and clock from Flame Tame machine, clock separations from Turing machine, Stoichia and Spock. The suitcase was nine months in the making which was mostly spent fixing my damage to the Technosaurus pieces. All good now, looking pretty and sounding great once again. The SSS37 was a great project, blows me away every time I uncover it and is my version of a poor mans minimoog model D. Any questions on anything seen or heard here should be sent my way, hope you like it. Enjoy!!!"

Fractional Rack Mdlr Jam

Published on Mar 30, 2014 ISOTROPOSPHERE·124 videos

"Finally filled the last empty space in this completely DIY fractional rack modular synthesizer that I built.

She started life from the last few pieces of Purpleheart wood I had of which the frame and side panels are made from this. The perforated steel and aluminum bottom panel I had to painstakingly bend to fit the side cheeks. They got rid of the brake from the shop. :-( The power is from Paia as well as a pre-amp module, a balanced modulator (ring mod) and a mixer, left to right in video. This is followed by my custom MOTM version of the Bi-n-Tic module converted for frac rack use and finally the Synthcube Steiner microcon module for frac. Drums are coming from the Korg ES-1, the Bi-n-Tic is being fed audio from the SynthTech Cloud Generator which it and the Microcon are being sequenced by the C&G Melody Mill. All not in synchronization but it was sounding cool. Enjoy."

Audiovisual Grain Machine Demo

Published on Mar 30, 2014 John Keston·34 videos

"I designed this software to do audiovisual granular synthesis. It allows a performer to apply granular synthesis to sound and corresponding video using a touch interface such as MIRA (shown). The audio and video are accurately synchronized creating uncanny effects. The software also has the capability to capture and repeat gestures so that the performer can accompany the projections with multiple layers and arrange compositions in a performance setting. This demo granulates the voice and image of Lister Rossel. In addition I use analogue synthesizers to contrast the digital manipulations."

Tristan Perich: Noise Patterns Coming to NYC This Wednesday, April 2

Baby's All Right
146 Broadway (at Bedford Ave), Brooklyn, NY

Info on Noise Patterns (click through for audio and more pics)

"Expanding on Perich's 1-Bit Symphony and tonal works for electronic circuits and acoustic instruments, Noise Patterns is a composition for sequenced 1-bit patterns of white noise, programmed for and performed by microchip. Instead of synthesizing definite frequencies, the code in Noise Patterns outputs random sequences of 1s and 0s. The 'notes' of Perich’s 'score' are then varying probabilities of randomness—ranging from the sound of white noise to sporadic instantaneous pops—which he composes into rhythmic patterns. In a tidal wave of 1-bit noise, the music is an investigation into the foundational limits of computation, which surface in the seemingly simple world of randomness."
