Here is a moment from the larger work in progress, another track drafted in stylistic exploration. As honest as I can be, pulling on these threads of me.

All of what I do has acoustic instruments somewhere, but there is a nice electro-acoustic element to this one, kinda gives it a storybook feel or like the overture for a space opera.

I got the Voice Nodulator fixed and working better than ever! All 8 params(grain frequency & size, attack, decay, feedback, lopass to pitchcompressor, high cut) to be safely voltage controllable and I can’t even blow it up with juice from the ARP!

Turned out part of the problem was a couple of potentiometers that had been resoldered too many times and crushed in too many bags.

Looking forward to getting together with the #synthdiy and #modularsynth nerds in a couple weeks here in #westernma!

I thought after completing three songs and getting deeper into a fourth that I should share some of the sonic artifacts I've recorded along the way.

Ambient, dark electro, experimental minimalism, improvised corners of where I'm sourcing my sound library for constructing studio tracks.

I recorded another track on the portable lunchbox #eurorack #modular #synth yesterday. It is called "Apple Pi a la Mode", to keep with the lunchbox / food stuff theme. Plus given yesterday's date...

Wanted to use the #roland #cr78 for some percussions, but that's not super portable (and runs on 110V, not battery power), so I ended up capturing a few loops on a TC Electronic Ditto+ looper pedal. Created a playlist for these tracks. #music #analog #modularsynth #loops.

Continued thread

This was easily the most complicated patch I've made and used almost all my cables. Trying to document what I did was quite an exercise!

I found some new tricks on the Grandmother and Pam's which I'm going to reuse. I was pretty happy with the outcome with Rings but there's room for improvement in the percussive flurries from Plaits.

Here's the patch that's been our lullaby at night for the past few weeks. Lots of happy accidents in this one, including I *think* a Pam's bug which caused it to fade to zero every two minutes. It's like it generatively broke itself into tracks. I like that so much I'm going to start doing it on purpose!

I guess if I'm going to share these I need to figure out a better way to record them than my iPhone.

First patch with the new Silhouette module from Whimsical Raps.

Teletype is sequencing notes for Just Friends to play and all six of its outputs are going into Silhouette. Initially, the patch is just exploring the rhythmic side of things but when I turn up the blur around halfway through it becomes more of a pad with this interesting, almost vocal like quality.

Really fun module.
