Anyone up for another Analogue vs Digital round?

and yes, to keep up my tradition of misspelling every single topic I start, I misspelled ladies.

aww mrx why you hurt my feelings?

you got midi yet?

 

if so record some shit for us African American

Whats that blue face box do?

It's a Bleep Labs Thingamagoop (monophonic analogue synthesizer controlled by an optical sensor and an LFO, also makes a good modulation source for the Modular)

Also, I have midi now, but Im having a strange issue with it and Renoise (Notes down to C-4 play ok, below C-4, the octave jumps up, like C-3 plays as C-6, C-2 plays as C-7, etc..). Ill post something up soon. Just playing around with it still. It's really easy to fall into a "lets sound like AFX" pitfall with it too.

Whoa thats sounds awesome. Is it fun to play with?

It's probably the most fun musical gadget I've ever played with, actually. It's like endless hours of tweaking entertainment. As far as using it in music, so far it's all been sampling it. It has a very unique trapezoidal waveform. There's no way for its LFO to Sync to much of anything so it's really hit or miss if you aren't sampling.

RECORD SOME FUCKING CLIPS

grower pattern

 

ok, well, j ust understand I'm just playing around with it right now, here's just a meandering pattern, combined sine/saw/pulse pad sound with an envelope modulating the cutoff, went from a vert subtle FM to just an LFO tremelo on the pitch at the end, made possible by the combo Osc/LFO modules (so you can go from doing FM with a musical oscillation rate to doing an LFO tremelo with just a turn of a dial).

 

I'll post more soon.

Just some cheeseball acid line - showing off the filter somewhat, the reso is very playful, almost bubbley

 

More of the same with a slightly more electro feel - See some inverted filter mod envelope action in here.

 

Drums are cheeseball Korg DR55 samples compressed to bolivion.

 

EDIT: Fixed these two links :P damn caps. EDITEDIT: These two seem to be broken, js

Odd, not sure what happend there, re-rendering the source wavs for those last two, oddness.

Ok, they should be fully working now, sorry about the cock up.

Well, technically nothing, since this is a gift from my wife. But, the entry plan (which after completed is what I have here) is $120 for 12 months (although you can pay ahead which is what she did). So, $1440.
