Yasemi

This is a very old track that had some very bad noise problems. I did a little cleaning up on it, but you can still hear some of the whine of that old mixer. 

I think I controlled the pitch via MS-20, and then had gate going into a function gen to slowly ramp upwards the speed of an LFO, which clocked the 2x pressure points sequencer. That would send out info to DPO. Then clouds is offset by a fourth or so to make it sound like two melodic lines. Kinda neat!

Variation

Ending

Got my stuff hooked up, and was gonna use the tr707 I had gotten recently but had a few issues with disabling omni mode so I just used the TR-8.

equipment used:
roland tr-8 - drums
roland jd800 - fantasia glassy stabs
roland jv880 - playstation-ish wind stabs
behringer model d - bass
roland jx3p - string pad
korg ex8000 - resonance fall sound
yamaha tx81z - epiano

alesis midiverb 2 - drum/master reverb
dbx 166 - compression

otari mx5050 mk3 - tape

lonely inbetween

Change

Wanted to test some really crunchy delays, so I made something that's like borderline unlistenable. Woo!

program one - cross signal

Had a pretty catastrophic plumbing failure over here at the house, so grabbed some gear and my four tracker and ran over to stay somewhere else.

Did a little jam right before bed, made this little diddy!

Arturia Microfreak - Lofi Bloops
Roland JD800 - Pad
Akai AX80 - Bass
Roland SP-404 - Beats
Boss RCL-10 - Pad Compression (sidechain to drums)
DIY Tape Delay (send 1)
EQD Avalanche Run (send 2)
Yamaha AM802 - Mixer/Sends
Tascam 424 mk1 - Cassette Recording

Chill vibes all around. Love delays. The Microfreak runs a 16 step sequence that I live play some extra notes over, while the Microfreak MIDI syncs the SP-404.

Fogline

Alright, and here is some really weird stuff from the other night. It's my electric field microphone pointed at my speaker, my phone on a wireless charge pad, and the spring verb it's ran through (all at different points), then that goes out to lil erebus for delay. Lots of weird here.

Antiphon provides sines and springs.
