We’ll see how things go with the whole “one topic per member” thing. I’ll keep all my recent stuff here unless there’s a vast backlash.
Firstly I’ve been doing a series of pieces based on JW Noteseq using the “rotate” function sort of like patterns are used but with certain, obvious and inherent, limitations. The point being to work around those limits.
I have another of these that I’ll upload later today.
The other thing is the start of a series called “Patches: month” where I go through all the patches I made on stream in that month. While the idea is to review what I’ve done with VCV in the last month without having to download a lot of VODs and edit them, I’ve started this with my first month of streaming VCVRack last year:
Okay, updates will be in this thread from now on.
Thanks for your attention.
I recorded this with OBS and used the color key filter to remove the backdrop. Underneath is an image file. My favourite version of this technique (also featuring semi transparent spots layered in front of VCVrack) is this stream (you need to skip a few minutes in):
On the subject of my stream:
I only stream about an hour a day but i try to do it every day.
thx for your interest and kind words.
Mad! Didn’t know there was chroma key in OBS, i asked because i’m looking to start a stream at some point soon. Thanks for the tip! I’ll follow you on twitch.
Most of the patches I made last month in one video. If you want more of a particular patch then just ask here or in the Youtube comments.
Also, some feedback (positive or negative) would be appreciated.
Thx.
While making the above stream highlights video I decided that there were a few patches that deserved a little more attention. This one is all about the “phasing”.
Yes the rhythm is meant to be like that. Feedback will be appreciated and (hopefully) learnt from.
I know what you mean but my natural tendencies are not exactly towards subtlety and beauty. I still think my best use of phasing is the first video I put up:
i really enjoy this fm synthesis, mashing 2 sounds together thing.
Here’s the latest (and, for the moment, last) of the “rotating box” series. I think it came out a little bit too “elevator music” for my liking but it’s okay. It needs more “spice” but I still don’t know enough about structuring a piece to know what condiment to add. Also the top line synth is too loud.
I like it, it’s an inspiring pre-demo I don’t think you can learn or be taught ‘the spice’ mate, it comes through from your influences and all sorts of other things. Just keep battering away at it and trying new stuff, sample, remix… change environment, change your formula ,listen to new stuff.
