demos with the wonderful spacecase tape echo TE-1

TE-1 spacecase tape echo

just a short test running the mfb-522 through the wonderful spacecase tape echo. the dry signal gets a fair amount of saturation and distortion, what a beautiful beautiful machine this is! manual wiggling of the delay time, feedback and high pass filter. a bit of reverb itb.

TE-1 & MFB-522

another spacecase demo. this time without echo. i recorded a short improvisation with soundplane and kaivo at the highest speed setting on the te-1 and then played it back at a very low speed setting, changed speed during playback. at the end, the tape in the te-1 barely moved. a chorus for stereo picture added later itb.

TE-1 slowest playback

soundplane and kaivo live into the te-1. i somehow created a strange double feedback with my soundcard but i thought it sounded nice, the te-1 echoes got more tonal so i recorded this. chorus and a bit reverb itb.

TE-1 double feedback

insert test with the te-1 tapeecho.
feedback goes into modular mmf-6 filter with 
one spring reverb in the loop and one after. 
sound from klangbau köln twin peak filter.

TE-1 insert one

just a demo of a synth running through the spacecase te-1 tape echo. stereo spring reverb added for space. monopoly transposed with uscale II.

TE-1 synth arpeggio

a short test i made with res-4 pings and erbeverb. recorded to daw and with flex pitch i speed up the recording to appr. 3x the oridinal speed and pitch (tape behavior). then recorded this to the te-1 in highest speed setting. played back in slowest speed setting which gave me around the original pitch of the first recording but with all the lovely tape artefacts, warble, hiss and the noise of the motor driving the tape. i need to do more of these pitch experiments, record very high frequency stuff from modular and pitch it down on tape...nothing new i know, but it's fun anyway!

TE-1 lofi pings

another spacecase recording before it goes overseas for an upgrade. cwejman res-4 into te-1 and r-54. slight spring reverb.

TE-1 pinged

a simple er-101 sequence into a-110-4 with dynamic fm from a vco-2rm sine wave. maths envelope. uvcaII. spacecase tapeecho and dual spring reverb through res-4.
