To Forgive

Martin @stimming has created a nice collection of OP-1 drum kits, free to download.

"The three kits consists of bass drums, claps, hats and shakers taken from my tracks, like The Anger, Sunday Morning and so on. The sounds are mostly handmade or hybrid. The bass drums either comes form an MBase or a Vermona DRM1.

Personally I found it hard to use the OP-1 for dance music without these very basic important sounds, so I decided to create my own kits. I did this because I love the machine and want to give a part of me to make it even better. Enjoy!"

YAM alternative firmware for the shruthi synthesizer. Showcasing the fmfb oscillators. I'm using two Shruthis (panned L/R) with the 4 pole mission filter board. Reverb, delay and compression were added.

As seen and heard on Instagram... but not fully.

Ext Box running a stock SE-02/MSR-modified sequence(1st time for almost everything).

Gorgeous Temple Bells courtesy of myNoise iPad app, filtered and driven very pleasantly through the External Input/Drive/HP chain, gated at times in an offhand but meaningful way by #charcotcircles, were recorded through the chunky audio out of the Ext Box; no USB-ing here.

Huelva (maybe it was Dublin—or Chester) crowd/transport noises emanate from DP9, and were patched into the Ext via a Saffire Pro 14, while the sequence was running, as captured here: https://www.instagram.com/p/Bn2n9upgyWw/?taken-by=studioelectronics

Same but different for the heavenly bells: https://www.instagram.com/p/Bn2aqK7glTn/?taken-by=studioelectronics

DRIVE and HP (hi pass) figure prominently, as they should.

Light and selective normalizing and mastering—hurts sometimes to push those natural analog DC offsets and organic transients around... maybe it's just me.

SE-02 Ext Box - Temple Bass Convo

Hello everyone! This is a demonstration of the sound design work I did for the Novation Peak. I created 50 patches demonstrating some of the new features that the v1.2 firmware update has to offer. My sound pack is available for free with the update through Novation's Components App. Select the Novation tab on that app to access them as well as GForce Software's free patches. 

The patches are performed with a mixture of Octatrack sequencing (using sequences from songs I have written) and live performance with a MIDI controller. I was inspired by artists like Delia Derbyshire and wanted to record little vignettes and sonatas using the Peak without other sound sources.

I made this recording so that friends can hear the sounds I made and so that other Peak users can get a closer glimpse into how I envision sound design. Please get in touch if you have any questions about my process or anything else related to this project and I will respond as best I can. 

The Novation Peak was recorded directly into a Steinberg UR44 interface. No external effects. Subtle mastering from Tokyo Dawn Labs software to balance recordings of different patches. Thank you for listening!

Remix of the first assignment for the Composing and Producing Electronic Music course.  I wanted to continue the feel of the original, so it took me a while to get into the vibe of it, but eventually I found a fun groove / feel.   That's always a good exercise, I think... to step out of your comfort zone and do something different from what you would normally do on your own.

I suppose that's the point of taking the class, for me at least.

CPEM Assignment 1 Remix

Week four assignment: Drum and bass track.   This one is in 12/8, as per the instructor's suggestion.  Also, mono drums and stereo bass.  Weird way to mix but it did end up being different from what I usually do.

Oh, and let's not forget:  Massive.   I used Massive for the basses and layered kicks.   Starting to like Massive a lot.

This is my final project for the semester.   I really learned alot.   It's pretty much done.   I didn't spend much time in the mastering phase, but I'm very happy with how it turned out.

Control Natural - Wonderful

A semi trip-hop downtempo psy bass track I did as a class project.   I liked it enough that I thought it was worth publishing here.
