APCpp - an instrument for the Rack Module TBD instrumentsofthings.com/products/tbd
This track has been done with the APCpp Plugin for TBD only. In order to smooth down the inherent quite aggesive tones of an "Atari Punk Console", phasing filters and quite a bit of reverb got applied in the DAW. For details about the plugin please refer to:

The 600th Disquiet Junto challenge.
This week a shared sample pool challenge. The track is based on 7 wonderful samples provided by Marcus Fischer.

I started off the process with the intention of using only the Elektron Octatrack but quickly ran out of memory trying to load all of the long samples into Flex machines. The parts I did create as still present in the track, particularly a sliced and randomised section you can hear primarily near the end.
Restarting the process in Bitwig I decided to create a few of the tonal drones by playing the percussive sample (which also introduces the track and ends it in dry form) through a tuned comb filter and into a Convolution device with one of the 45 second long tonal samples loaded as the Impulse Response. As a result the transients in the sample strike the impulse response and excite the chord elements. Another of the tonal samples is loaded in a Sampler in granular mode, stretch set arbitrarily slower and 3 voices playing back spaced out sections of the sample. The length of the track (I know, I'm sorry) was set purely by waiting until one long held note on the sampler had fully played through the stretched sample.
From there one of the other samples was cut up and pitched down an octave to produce the slightly glitchy bass line. Other parts from the remaining samples added where I felt they worked in the arrangement.
All parts are created using only the samples.
One additional sample added in the background - a field recording of kids playing.

A big thank you to Marc for the inspiration to take part, as always, a big congratulations on reaching 600 weekly challenges and of course to Marcus Fischer for the wonderful starting point.
