Record 17 tracks from op-z / ipad headphone trick / multiple input / output audio

op-z into ipad usbc and headphones video by michael nervous

This tip is in via michael nervous.

"Normally when you use the usb-c cable from the op-z to the ipad it will recognise the op-z as an audio interface for in and out. if you plug your headphones in after the ipad recognizes the op-z it will keep the op-z as an audio interface for input and use the headphone as the output. If you close the app you will have to unplug your headphones and plug back in.

In this video I show how to 'trick' the ipad into using a separate output from the audio device in and out of the op-z. Using a usb hub and plugging in the headphones after the apps are open the ipad recognises the different output.

Also recording all 16 midi tracks into separate tracks on the ipad while recording the stereo audio input while monitoring headphones and screen recording the audio/video.

Also showing the new video portion of the photmatic motion track, Screen recording.

This video was a proof of concept and I can do more tests and make a better video if there is a need for it.

I made the video just after the OP-Z update to photmatic and just forgot to upload because.....both the afx station and blackbox showed up within days of each other."

"Synthetic Sound Labs Serge Triple Waveshaper // Review // Patch Examples // Tips

In this video I explore the Synthetic Sound Labs Serge Triple Waveshaper - Model 1050. I’ve also included examples, patch tutorials and tips about how I use the module. This is a deceptively simple module can enhance any system by expanding the tonal capabilities of the modules owned and the sounds I produced.

I've only begun to discover the possibilities of this Waveshaper. If you own one and have any additional insight please leave tips and suggestions in the comments."

Teensy Gurdy Synthesizer Demo

video by BanjoMasterPete

"A demonstration of the capabilities of my latest project which is based on the working principles of a hurdy gurdy. 12 strings (9 momentary, 3 latching) are activated by touching their corresponding touch plate and tuned using the knobs above them. These strings are mixed into a master filter where the rotational speed of the encoder crank controls the cutoff frequency. Additional controls above the crank affect filter resonance, master volume, and the attack/decay of the touch envelopes. The switches activate the tuning mode which ignores encoder input and change the wave shape of the strings. Some plate reverb was added about halfway through, otherwise this is a direct recording."
