i’ll post a demo very soon

I just got the Isms system and still very early in the process of learning it. This is a setup I had for the Disquiet Junto drone submission today. Is it obvious that I am a guitar player turned synthy person?

not really

i actually had to laugh, before admitting i like synths, at the sheer number of guitar pedals/cables/adapters i own despite no talent with or interest in guitars themselves

it’s all pretty much the same under the enclosures and ideas (even whole circuits) are freely shared between these worlds

There’s an ‘intone’ joke in there somewhere, but I’m too lazy to work it out today! :sleeping:

an ambient modular experiment; a quick investigation of my new monome/modular setup.

i have a “5M” system now–monome, mannequins, mutable instruments, makenoise, musicthing–and wanted to see what it can do. melodies recorded into earthsea, slowed way down, play back almost as a surprise; notes cascading across fx modules and pedals. field recordings dropped into the radiomusic provide a real-world place and time. this setup is so much fun already. i’m sure i should expand with another oscillator and filter, but even this half-filled isms creates beautiful things. using the gear in this picture, i recorded this last night:

i wanted to get the drone parts of this piece into the latest @disquiet junto project 0240, but ran out of time. at least it works for the current weekly beats goal.

Live setup for a piece I’m working on in collaboration with interactive visual design, dance and robotics at the Queensland University of Technology. Reaktor maps OSC messages received from IR camera tracking to the top modular synth. Isms and the monome are used for live sequence manipulation and the rest of the track is coming off the elektron boxes.

Resuming gigs after a while! Old setup, but still effective. Off-frame: electric guitar, pedalboard, softstep :slight_smile:

Tatami music room, in the midst of moving it up off the floor and getting a proper desk DAW/workspace sorted out. No modular nor monome. For now? Who knows.
