No Holiday

The Voices You Hear

This is a bit of a play with the Roland System 1m and the AIRA Modular Scooper I picked up yesterday.  I created the Scooper loop from the System 1m Osc1 output, then just "played" the controls of the 2 units manually (System 1m LFO triggering its VCA, no other patching on either unit.)

I went to the local pro audio shop yesterday to buy a Roland JX-03 before they're sold out, but I got hypnotized by the AIRA FX modules - specifically, their amazing programmable feature set!  There's a little constellation of modular functionality inside each unit.  The shop was out of the Demora delay unit (my first choice) so I went with the Scooper (who doesn't need yet another loop recorder in their rig?)  The limited number of physical controls on the hardware helps keep things focused (otherwise you'd be constructing an entire 90hp instrument out of each module.)  I'm looking forward to a deeper dive - been reading some great ideas on Muff Wiggler.  Who needs more voices when you can get hold of abundant new opportunities to create mayhem with the voices already at hand?

Two Track Mind

Reviving a long-dormant interest in all (audio) things electronic.
