Just a very, very, VERY rough/quick riff with my new Deckard's Dream synth, using a Linnstrument as controller (in MPE mode) and processed with a touch of reverb from a Meris Mercury 7.  DD is in Sustain 1 mode, with aftertouch triggering the LFO modulation and speed.

Still getting used to the Linnstrument, hence the roughness in some of the pitch bends.  But, the basic idea is there.

DD Practice

Deckards Dream w Linnstrument (Test 1)

For each of the live shows on our five-date tour of Italy in October/November 2018, we adapted the performance to each of the very different venues. As well as the acoustic properties of the space and the PA system, we incorporated something of each venue's character, and at Mikasa, it was the creaky stage, which opens and closes this recording.

Thanks to everyone who made this possible: Daimon (Simon Balestrazzi, Paolo Monti, Nicola Quiriconi), who organised and managed the tour, as well as performing their own fine shows, and to Antonio Altini at Mikasa for the attention to detail.

Live at Mikasa, Bologna, 3 November 2018

Very plain (sawtooth, one voice) DDRM sound first dry, then with a bit of the Expander reverb, a bit of the Expander delay, and finally some of the ring mod with ADSR settings.  Nothing fancy, just showing the basic stuff.
