Mason Self TRILLER Midi Pitch Controller

"Triller is an alternative Midi Controller for sending pitch bend messages."

"I'm very excited to share this project.

I've been curious about different approaches to designing MIDI controllers. For this first project, I'm focusing on harnessing pitch bend in a more flexible way than a pitch bend wheel, and a more fun way than - God forbid - the pencil tool in your DAW.

I've made a very small batch of Trillers and I'd love to share them with you. Since this is still a beta version, I'm asking $150 + shipping (that's cost of materials and a tiny bit extra for labor). I'm also asking that you go the distance with me and give me feedback to make the Triller even better. It's fully functional, but I have hunch that you can help me hone in the last 5-15% of the design / functionality / use.

Please watch this tutorial and make sure you understand the specs before purchasing. I do not think the Triller is for everyone, but could be an exciting new tool for some.

Macbeth's Elements Synthesizer Droning (Have a Nice Trip)

Published on Jan 1, 2018 martinjazz78

"(For your maximum experience good speakers or headphones are recommended while watching the video)

Ken Macbeth's Elements Synthesizer droning while ring modulated with Moogerfooger MF-102. Its Carrier Out goes into Ext. Amp In on the Elements and gets pretty bad, I would say.

Modulations option on the Elements Synthesizer are indeed very complex and rich and quickly gets you to rather distant galaxies. On-board delay (also heavily modulated) adds great organic feel. If you may, listen also with subwoofer, so you enjoy also the Elements' low end pumping.

Only Elements' internal on-board effects (reverb and delay) used. No further processing. Tweaked live on the fly, no over-dubbing etc.

I hope you are having a nice trip and your landing is going to be safe ;)"

AI Synthesis AI004 DIY Eurorack OTA Filter First Look

Published on Jan 1, 2018 AI Synthesis

"A really rough mid-recording preview of the AI004. Note that because I was recording, there is some compression, delay, and reverb on the synth audio. I was recording for the new force damage album and thought I would take a break to quickly record the new AI004 Eurorack DIY Filter from aisynthesis.com. This is a candid, off the cuff recording so the mic is just a condenser sitting on the shelf, I have a cough, and the rack isn't lit for recording, so take it all with a grain of salt."

Simon Chauvin - Ascent

Published on Jan 1, 2018 Simon Chauvin

"I wanted for a long time to make a video showing how each piece of hardware I own contributes to my music. Here is my first attempt at doing this, with "Ascent", composed, recorded and mixed in my home studio in Amsterdam during the last days of 2017. Wishing everyone a happy new year, full of music!
