Omriiiiiiii, you’re way to fast for me. Not the clips themselves, but the speed at which you publish.

Thanks man. Good stuff even if I can’t keep up.

Omri_Cohen · July 17, 2020, 2:08pm

Man, if I don’t sleep and don’t eat, neither should you No, but seriously, I should take it down a notch…

Just another great source of inspiration and very well explained about the infinite VCV conceptual multiverse sound manipulation, as always! Thanks and all the best…

Being a total VCV addict myself, I would say: Don’t tone it down Omri, feed you addiction . Because if you don’t, you’ll feel miserable hahahaha

I know, I’ve sorta try that. Not a good idea.

But more seriously, you’re doing such a good job, don’t you ever stop

Edit: the word “job” is an understatement, in VCV context, it’s pure fun.

Omri_Cohen · July 18, 2020, 1:33pm

Thank you, I appreciate it!

Omri_Cohen · July 18, 2020, 1:34pm

Yeah, I have so many ideas and there are times when new modules just keep on coming, just like mushrooms after the rain

jaynothin · July 18, 2020, 1:34pm

mmmmmmmm mushrooms

Lately Jay has been collaborating with other Twitch musicians using various internet technologies. It’s been pretty interesting to watch.

edit for terrible spelling

Omri_Cohen · July 18, 2020, 2:27pm

I should really check out Twitch…

jaynothin · July 18, 2020, 2:51pm

Yeah, it’s been a really positive experiement so far. I’m amazed at how easy it was achieved. Sure it isn’t perfect, and there is much to learn, and things to fix, but it’s also a new way of thinking, or should I say, an old way, but more “up to date”.

It’s def a work in progress to say the least.

Anyway, for those wondering what I’m talking about…

Here it it:

Looks really interesting. Can you share a link to one of those sessions?

Hey Omri great video and perfectly explains running VCV with Ableton. It all functions as explained but I seem to have a problem recording VCV. If I click the arming button to cue up a track I get a popup saying there’s an error saving a particular wav file and the arm button doesn’t turn red until I deselect a previously armed track. Even when the track is armed it doesn’t record any audio.

Tried a couple of different things like trying to record to an extra audio track that’s not directly connected to Bridge and using a different version of Bridge. No luck. I’m running the latest version of Ableton and VCV.

Any thoughts?

Omri_Cohen · July 18, 2020, 3:57pm

I didn’t encounter anything like this, I wonder what it can be… Do you have this with other projects as well?

codeloading2020 · July 18, 2020, 3:58pm

No just anything connected to Bridge. Other audio tracks in the same project function as normal.

codeloading2020 · July 18, 2020, 4:08pm

Ah never mind. Looks to be an issue I’ve got with Ableton not Bridge. I’m getting it in other situations too now.

Cheers Omri.

Omri_Cohen · July 18, 2020, 4:10pm

Ok, I hope it will work!

jaynothin · July 18, 2020, 4:29pm

Hmmmm, ok…

Here’s a part were someone else is playing guitar, I’m not sure if it was Strum ( yeah from Mental modules ), playing live from Australia, or if it was another guitar player from the U.S. (Twitch handle JingleEngle )

I’m only at the begining of testing this technology, so there is not much to show/hear in my opinion but it’s a start.

I’m only showing Rack in the video, but i use Jamtaba as a vst to do this for “audio routing” purpose. So you can only hear.

And, Omri, if you ever want to try something, I’d be really happy to try and jam with you. We could just do private test at first. But I’m confident we’ll have a blast

Just PM me for anything if you like this.

This link is from yesterday, an 8hours stream I did on twitch. Here it is starting at 1:42:11 with some guitar: (EDIT: link as been removed because it no longer existed on Twitch)

P.S. this link will self destruct in 13 days (out of 14 total) because that’s how Twitch works

Ok for reference if this happens to anyone else it was my antivirus software suddenly taking exception to Ableton (probably a change in the last update).

Did a repair on the antivirus and when trying Ableton again got a warning that the antivirus was trying to block it when arming tracks so just selected Allow and things are back to normal.

jaynothin · July 18, 2020, 4:52pm

Here’s another jam the day before, with ShapeNoise, Dronehands, JingleEngle and me

Since it’s my stream, the “mix” is the one I made of the 4 musicians, you can’t really decypher who’s doing what unless you were actually part of the jam.

I guess from now on, I need, (other jammer also), to learn what other musicians styles and playings are in order to give space to each others at certain point in the jam. It really is a work in progress
