This piece gives a good glimpse into my current live performance ambient methodology starting with a single note on a synth into a virtual PCM-42 doing square wave modulated long delays. This is followed by 3 more synths creeping in one at a time each being looped in an instance of Augustus Loop and followed by fx then hitting the mixer. My guitar creeps in over top of it all about a third of the way through.

I'm running the whole rig in Plogue Bidule which I find a friendly alternative to Max/MSP plus I can use all the groovy AU & VST plugins I already own!

Well Enough I Suppose...

Squidwerks aka Greg Heimbecker is a Northern Colorado based recording engineer, sometimes saxophonist & longtime fan of music across many genres. I have a particular soft spot for ambient music in the tradition of the "great bald one" Brian Eno. As my SoundCloud develops there will be collections of my engineering efforts as well as a section of ambient music composed and performed by myself and a few of my close friends over the past 30 years or so...(be sure to check out https://soundcloud.com/nine-horse-johnson!) enjoy!
