Happy Sunday! Here we are at weekly post #52. Wow…it has been a whole year of posts. I never imagined I would keep the posts up this long. It has been quite the learning experience and I’ve managed to create some recordings that I enjoy. It’s great to go back and listen to some of these pieces and find them to be sources of calm. That was the point for me after all!
A few folks have been with me in this undertaking since the beginning. Thank you so much, especially those who have encouraged me to keep this up. As long as I continue to enjoy it and it doesn’t become work, I’ll keep at it.
May you find peace today. Hope this helps. :)
Patch Notes
My gear continues to change as I figure out what I like. The Moog Mavis I was trying out has gone back and I picked up a couple other voices to replace it. These are digital voices, clones of Mutable Instruments Braids and Plaits. They are very different from the analog Moog synths! I also scored a Rings clone, which I’ve been wanting to try for quite some time. It’s a resonator and I think it will be a fantastic way to add variety to my various synth voices.
Voices: Plaits, Braids, Mother 32, DFAM
Gate/trigger sequencing by Zularic Repetitor
Pitch CV from Dice, quantized by A-156
A-138m mixes dry signals with FX Aid reverb
Plaits goes into Rings for bubbly sounds and glitches
Rings output goes through Maths for modulated envelope
Braids provides string voice
Pam’s New Workout drives clock and provides LFOs for modulation.
