Here’s a snippet from a yesterday’s sketch; pretty much the old triggering of random notes at different intervals with sprinkles on top. There’s a realization in here, though. I really need to figure out ways to - at the same time - let the rules and systems do the composing - because, great job there, VCV, from 0:30-0:45 - AND be able to have such a harmonic progression resolve to a needed chord. Ah, well.
Splendide Urs, as always
Recently I’ve been patching way too much with a mindset of trying to sound like xy and that really didn’t get me anywhere. Today however, after waking up weirdly early - it’s Sunday, I’m home alone, what? - I started making this by more doing just what feels right and whereever VCV leads me
I’m not yet ready to commit on using the other Host module for some actual, manual piano playing but this’ll come, eventually, maybe, hopefully. Patch notes:
A sequence of four piano (block) chords, played by the NOIRE library with a long attack goes into JONI, from there into both a pitched down Clouds and Rings, the latter “controlled” by the Grid Seq. Oh, and for good measure and why not Rings gets processed by Southpoles Smoke, which is a module I wanted to try out. The old XFX Wave/Sangster combo for a low bass drone and Grain Engine slowly crunches through a recording of assorted sounds of a piano’s mechanics.
Très beau, Urs
New version. Same, but different. Spent a good part of the weekend listening to and playing with those endless, lush pad sounds from texture synths going into texture synths. Fun times!
Magnifique, Urs
This is so good, so much talent! I need to dive in to your tunes more.
Lovely!
Here’s a work in progress. That I might never finish, because this is not what Modular is made for, I fear. But I tend to do these things recently, build big patches, that I would have to either make a whole, crazy control surface for in order to (learn how to) perform them or… well, start making this stuff in a DAW. Anyways. Sounds like this (the Cello is a sampled riff played with Felt Instruments’ Blisko):
…which leads me to…
… back to basics Smaller patches. Patches that look like this. Like, three modules from Audible Instruments and seeing what happens. Experiment, Explore, Repeat.
Magnifique. Very beautiful soundscapes et très belles harmonies
Lovely! “Small” is beautiful and amazing things can be done with a (mostly) Mutable rack. Good stuff.
So, here’s a little tune.
was playing with the new NoteSeqFu, put polyphonic v/oct into the Macro Oscillator and it went from there.
(bit fond of this bit here, where the individual gates are arbitrarily offset by slow LFOs:)
Nice! I really like that one.
An Event Horizon remix of @Omri_Cohen’s Halloween-patch
Oh man, very unsettling…
Une réussite, Urs. Bravo
Here, the “meaning” of the patch is something entirely different (intricate piano patterns through ARP playing incoming chords but its v/oct and gate outputs are sent through signal delays) but I fooled around with the VST’s options and smearing that piano into texture is also nice
Gentle, very enjoyable! Never got around using the ARP module…think I will now
