arpie sequencing chords for the Pharoh voice on Volca FM and the repeats of the hedra, Rack playing modulated noise colors into Wires -> Valhalla Supermassive -> out into the main effects loop, ROOMs for verb

we just don't know what's down there

doin our best

the usual squad—Volca FM with some lil pipe-y sounds, VCV Rack w/ weird lil pizzicato background stuff, Volca Kick kickin, eurorack for the bassline (Castor & Pollux as the voice, coupla javelins, crbn filter, databender, dual dagger), Lyra-8 doing the wild siren sound, ROOMS to put everything in the same room

live to stereo, compression added after the fact

having a bad week

running the lyra-8 into the eurorack for some processing—one voice from Castor and Pollux singing some tones, bells from Volca FM

earthbreath

drone not drones inspired deep ambience and vibe

driven

VCV rack (Terrorform, SquinkyLabs Seq++, VST Host) w/ Phase Plant and lots of reverb, off screen lyra-8 making periodic crackles, chilling with my microphone and some guys re-siding my house. Bang bang bang, saw saw saw, clonk clonk clonk.

External control of the patch with a Korg SQ-1 and Midifighter Twister.

All one take, only limiting and normalization after the fact. Video of the performance on YouTube: https://youtu.be/0ZNwdkuAlwg

sunlight upgrade

a twee performance and classic arpeggiation in an easy key. sounds nice :)


VCV rack (lots of SquinkyLabs voices-- Organ Three, Kitchen Sink, and Substitute....lots of Valley--Plateau and Feline....EricaSynths Flanger, VST Valhalla Supermassive...8 copies of stoermelder Orbit to keep the melody line moving in the stereo field...and a few other cute tricks ;) )

External control of the patch with an Arturia Keystep 37, Midifighter Twister, and a good old computer keyboard.

All one take, only limiting and normalization after the fact.

Performance also on youtube: https://youtu.be/peg98YJ4IT0

what a japanese beetle sounds like to a rose

a practice session that turned out pretty well....I think I'll keep it

performance also on youtube: https://youtu.be/Ls0_7IhacTY

no rite to spring

hydrostatic pressure redistribution

Fuzz and reverb and first sounds. A few long samples, finished off with a performance in VCV Rack.

enter cosmos

VCV experimentation and playing around with @ramzoid 's distortion cooker plugin

mew mew six

berlin-style synthwave X mood-y reverbed-out drones X loop corruption shenanigans

asleep at the knobs

second song (the asleep series) with a performance patch I may or may not get to use live somewhere -- it's similar to my last performance patch--deconstructed digital tape loop, digital degradation in the loop path, simple sequenced melody with async delay, lots of filtering and tricks to re-use triggers and sequences within the system for multiple purposes

asleep on the wires

might explode ears, unsure if in good way, more like in horror movie way

for use in extreme circumstances

Wanted some practice tracking stuff in with a keyboard and touching stuff up with RX7. Landed on this song that's just about the only piano tune I can manage, but also a nice pretty sentiment. Also the original vocals are all scrabbly so I could sing quietly in my office and not worry too much.

Long Way From Home (Old Man River)

more VCV Rack goofin, this time I found a nice loooonnnnggg LFO (frozen wasteland seriously slow LFO) that output 4 simultaneous wave forms, and I quantized these to 4 scales that sound nice together and had the output play Dexed for me

also had arpie play the volca FM
