Test of the ByteBeat function of Mutable Instruments Peaks running the Dead Man's Catch alternative firmware.

The first eight bars has two triggers... one firing a Peaks Kick and the other resetting a ByteBeat equation. After that the ByteBeat runs on its own until its pain is silenced by the mercy of a low pass filter.    

[TEST] Peaks ByteBeat Test

Digital Icepick

Demo of the sub out of the Erica Synths Black Wavetable Oscillator. Minutes <1, <2, and <3 (roughly) are sub position 3, 2, and 1. From minute 3 it is position 3 with a kick from Peaks. Semi-random notes are from a QBit Octone.

Wave, sub mix level, and filter frequency are being slowly modulated by a Batumi. Filter is a WMD/SSF Pole Zero.

Black Wavetable Sub Demo

Slow drone using Erica Synth's Black Wavetable VCO. And some other toys in the rack.

The Night of 18 January

Unfinished Business

I racked six new 2HP modules last night and wanted a quick way to test them all. This patch has 1/4 note clock going to BRST, BRST Out going to the TM, TM Out going to TUNE, TUNE Out going to a Erica Black Wavetable VCO. The 1/4 note clock is also going to the 2HP ADSR, which drives a Veils VCA sending the osc out to the mixer. The 1/4 note clock also drives a kick so you can hear where BRST plays against 4/4 time.

The recording has me tweaking the Pulse and Rate pots manually. It starts in a sweet spot and ends in a sweet spot, and in between there are both interesting, polyrythmic-esque beats and some, er, absolute garbage :). I've never had a dedicated burst gen so I'd though I'd just share this warts and all.

[TEST] 2HP Module Test

Quick test of the QBit Octone with its clock being driven by the 2HP TM or Turing Machine. The output of the TM goes to a Doepfer A-156 Quantizer. The A-156 has a trigger output which is the source of the clock for the Octone.

The Octone is driving an Erica Black Wavetable VCO into a WMD Pole Zero filter modulated by two DIY FCUK ADSRs, and finally into the Octatrack where 'verb and delay were added to taste.

[TEST]Octone and Turing Machine

Ambient peace (sic) found on the way to what was to be an industrial end. Rings chords, Braids HARM, and a bunch of supporting modules. This is an accident I thought worth sharing. Stereo recording straight and live.

Monday

Happy accident. I was patching a Batumi into itself to experiment, heard something interesting, and then added a Radio Music to the mix. The Radio Music happened to be on the audio of the Apollo 11 moon landing, which I never listed to in its entirety.

We come in peace...

The Eagle Has Landed

Quick test of Pam's New Workout from ALM. She is driving two Erica Pico Drums, a LI, and White Noise with a envelope and VCA.

[TEST] Pam's Short

Working on some core themes for a new live set for next week. 100% modular straight into a Zoom H5. More to follow...

Formally posting as user Outtatune. Experimental electronica and sound design sketches, primarily created on a Eurorack modular synth. Ideas recorded instead of discarded. And the odd field recording...
