Now the song :)

I always want to put new gear/software/sounds into actual music to see how it performs. This piece started as a demonstration of the PolyVision sounds, but quickly evolved into this musical journey. Somewhere on that journey I decided that I wanted a themed video for it...something that would loosely be Halloween-ish and would be a slight of retelling of the Hero's Journey (see Joseph Campbell's work on the subject), albeit in an incomplete and very abstract way.

I've been a musician for a long time, but I am definitely no film maker! :) I used free video from several websites, for which I am grateful. The most important part is the music, but if you enjoy metaphor, ancient near east symbolism, and being mildly entertained by low budget films (a serious topic no doubt diminished by my amateurish attempts at video), then sink into the music.

The track features a number of patches from PolyVision and nearly the entire track is the Prophet 6, save some drums from EZDrummer2, a few Telecaster parts, and the heartbeat sample at the beginning. All other sounds including the obvious synths, piano, cellos/violas, sound effects are all from PolyVision. It has quite a number of parts to the song...evolving and trans-versing the sonic realms much as our heroine does.

I truly hope you will enjoy it and I thank you for watching. -Cryss

Ping-Ping Pong - A Supercritical Neutron Flux study


Supercritical Synthesizers

"I tried to think of the cheapest trick in the modular synthesizer cookbook. Well, the cheapest trick without Rick Nielsen.

Space. Not that fancy let’s-grab-a-bite-of-that-asteroid-while-we’re-there modern space exploration. The ye-olde-paper-mache-flying-saucers type sci-fi. In Finnish we’d use the word ”Pulputus” which means a sort of a bubbling sound but far more useless. The right kind of useless.

Filter pings! Oh what fun with the Liquid 4 pole setting. This patch has a LFO modulating the Antumbra Knit (a miniature Mutable Instruments Plaits) which has a single low frequency saw wave triggering the filter pings. Both cores of the filter are in use and spread with the stereo control.

After the filter it goes to a miniature Clouds. My own hacked kinda-kammerl-parasites firmware. Only verb this time from it. Then it’s routed to the miniature parasite Warps. Tape echo there. Holy mackerel it sounds good!

Oh the ring? The nice folks at Iceland’s Genki Instruments sent us a couple of their products. The Wave ring’s rotation movement controls the filter FM and the gate starts and stops the tape. Controlled directly from the Wavefront module. Ég tala ekki íslensku but damn this thing is expressive and easy to use. You’ll see more of this in our demos later.

Flamma FS02 reverb pedal with a Sub37


Richard DeHove

"A new pedal by a pretty new company. I bought this because it was super-cheap, but also because it was true stereo with knob-per-function. Turns out it was pretty good. Well, except for the "Mod" style which added a weird high frequency noise.

0:00 Intro blather and knob functions

1:55 Saving a preset
2:36 Hall
4:17 Church
6:58 Cave
9:00 Plate
10:35 Spring
12:16 Mod

This isn't a full run through of every knob combination, just a feel for what it sounds like with some typical synth sounds. The levels vary a bit but that's what happens with different sounds, especially with a Moog filter! I tried to balance things as best I could but didn't use anny processing of any sort on the sound (no EQ, no limiter, no compressor etc). Finally, I have no affiliation with Flamma or any other company and I paid full price for the pedal (US$78 including delivery!)

Improv on Soft Synth, Drum Machine, and Harp


poorness studios

"I woke up and just felt like making a quick ditty with Alchemy (soft synth) and my Aklot 15-string harp. I'm not sure why I thought of that combination, but I added a drum loop and it ended up sounding pretty darn cool. If anyone is curious, I'm using an M-Audio Oxygen 25 controller over USB. I hope you folks like it.
