Modular Synthesis
In my free time, I compose and perform music. This is mostly focused around Eurorack Modular Synthesizers, but I include software, and other hardware in my setup from time to time. I'll try my best to describe my set up and process for each of the performances I share.
I. Phobos
Patch Information:
- Water sample granulation: Nebulae
- Melody: MI Braids sequenced by the Deadman's Catch Firmware Turing Machine for MI Peaks Ch.1 through MMG through RT60 delay.
- Bass: Arturia Microbrute
- Kick: MI Peaks ch.2
- Snare: Nano-rand noise out through Galilean Moons
- HH/~Noise: Jupiter Storm through Galilean Moons triggered by Nano-rand random gate out.
- Recorded to 4 Tracks in Ableton Live; external reverb(Max For Live, Convolution Reverb Pro) was used.
- Nano-rand random output is going all over the patch and being processed in different ways.
- Pressure Points are controlling exponential control of melody envelope, and the QCD-cv for the kick and Melody rhythm. Channel 3 gates the snare.
II. Luna
Patch Information:
- Bass voice - 2hp Osc through 2hp Filt
- All other voices - Qu-bit Chord
- Other audio effects - All voices through Make Noise MMG and Qu-bit RT-60
- All sequenced from Qu-bit Octone
- Amplitude Envelopes - Mutable Instruments Peaks, Make Noise Maths, and Hex Inverter Galilean Moons.
- Clocks - 2hp LFO (master clock), 4ms QCD, Qu-bit Nano Rand
- Other modulation - 2hp Rnd, 2hp LFO, Nano Rand, Pressure Points, Peaks
