Really nice sounds here. I particularly enjoyed “ Staithes”. Put me in a good place this morning. Thanks for that.

Thanks for the kind comments guys most appreciated!

Gives me motivation to keep patching and get some more tracks finished :slightly_smiling_face:

beautiful stuff! i love the progressions in both tracks.

Super nice tracks, both of them! Very soothing. Are those your original paintings? Very nice!

Listening and memory. Aural time travel. Events that never happened or didn’t happen as you remember them or through repetition are heard for the first time.

*Patch Notes*

Before this minute and a half, there was about fifteen minutes of Mutable Instruments Plaits feeding small bursts of a ~20 note Teletype sequence into two Mannequins W/'s. Recording was linear and the two W/'s were set to asynchronous loops.

Then, the patch was reconfigured to feed the W/'s into the other, each through a dedicated Three Sisters. The filters were self-patched from Centre into FM, creating a warm fuzz. Each began overdubbing the other in small bursts.

By shifting tape speed throughout this process, 1x speed playback revealed pitch-shifted ghosts of events.

There’s about 20ms of reverb and L/R panning to differentiate the two loops, but no other post-processing.

Thanks Plym!

Unfortunately they are not my paintings (wish they were though :smile:).

First attempt at piano Phasing. One voice is triggered by M and the other by PEG with tap tempo. Of course the difference in time between the two voices is huge and the Phasing is very fast. Any chance it can be done differently? Maybe all inside teletype?

Ok, shit, this is cool. I’m trying as hard as I can not to be tempted by Teletype…

sick! i don’t have the TT [yet…] so I can’t say about doing it all internally, but Pam’s New Workout has a phase setting that would allow you to achieve this pretty easily [trigger one sequence with a 1x output with no phase, trigger the other sequence with a 1x output with 10% phase or something like that]!
edit: sorry if this is totally common knowledge and not helpful

Make Noise Tempi can also do this. You could also just trigger a teletype script and then do something like

EVERY 15: CV 1 N X; TR.P 1
EVERY 16: CV 2 N Y; TR.P 2

In order to create two sequences that slowly move in and out of phase. Higher numbers lead to slower phasing, but also require a higher tempo of trigger input.

I can’t quite think of another way of doing it within teletype, though. It would be super easy to do with the txo expander, where you can set individual metronomes for each clock output and specify their length in ms.

Careful: the phasing in this piece is created by a difference in the speed of the two tapes (BPM) and not by the phase of the trigger, wich would create a “fixed” phase while this one is pulsing.

#2046

Probably the most ‘wall of sound’ track I ever made.

Really nice work. Fits the weather over here right now (it’s been hammering it down for four days now… endless rain!).

#2049

Thank you. Springtime in the Appalachians. Snow, rain, thunder,and wind. Nothing would surprise me this time of year. Stay dry.

patch notes / more info

Recorded at MASS MoCA in North Adams, MA, on April 1, 2018.

Thanks to the staff of MASS MoCA for their above and beyond support, to Graham Tolbert for the extra camerawork, and to artist Spencer Finch for allowing us to film in his long-term installation, Cosmic Latte. Read more about Finch and the piece here: http://massmoca.org/event/spencer-fin…

Patch notes: three improvisations recorded on the upright piano backstage at MASS MoCA, played back and granulated via morphagene, bastl microgranny, and Olympus field recorder, all modulation by hand. Light panning from cold mac, light high pass from 3 sisters.

Here are a couple of recent bits from the sketchbook:

Long loop made using Borderlands Granular, percussion and bells thru delay and reverb pedals, all built up in my Ditto X2, this is the clean version before I dumped it to tape. I ran it as a long loop/backing track in recent live sets, and I’ve grown to like it on its own. One of those very, very rare tracks of my own where I would let it roll in the background for long stretches of time, happy to listen to it over and over.

This one is a fleshing-out of a sketch I made in Borderlands Granular in 2017… still rough, will be happy to clean it up when the inspiration strikes. Pleased with the texture and rhythm.

So, so lovely. What a heavenly looking space to play in, too!
