Shared System Patches

Studio track by Robert Rich and B. Lustmord

Robert Rich & Lustmord Synergistic Perceptions

Shared System Patch. Modules used: Erbe-Verb, DPO, Echophon, Rene, Pressure Points, Optomix, Phonogene. I chose not to use a Maths or Wogglebug. I really wanted everything to be under direct control.

The Phonogene contained a previous Shared System sound. Its End of Slice output was patched to both an Optomix strike (with Phonogene's output as input), and the Rene's X-Clk input. Rene's output was changing the organization of the Phonogene.

Various points were manually controlled by Pressure Points. Channel 2 of the Optomix was a DPO drone. Optomix out->Echophon->Erbe-Verb->Stereo Out.

Shared System Patch: Dependence

A live performance for the Make Noise Shared System series. Primary plunk sound is a DPO run through an Optomix. Maths triggers the Optomix in a semi-irregular way. The sound is run through an Echophon, with the feedback out into an Erbe-Verb. The Erbe-Verb channel one is plugged into a Phonogene in "Broken Echo" mode, which is output into the Echophon Feedback input. The Erbe-Verb stereo outputs are the primary outs for this piece.

Shared System Patch: Late Bloomer

The evil twin to "Late Bloomer". It's the same patch, but with heavier FM settings and larger modulations. Recorded live with no overdubs and no post-processing.

Shared System Patch: Wilted

Just a simple demo to show how to turn the Erbe-Verb into a glass-like percussion machine via feedback.

Shared System Example: Erbe-Verb Feedback Percussion

A live performance for the Make Noise Shared System series. Primary plunk sound is a DPO run through an Optomix. Maths triggers the Optomix in a semi-irregular way. The sound is run through an Echophon, with the feedback out into an Erbe-Verb. The Erbe-Verb channel one is plugged into a Phonogene in "Broken Echo" mode, which is output into the Echophon Feedback input. The Erbe-Verb stereo outputs are the primary outs for this piece.
