Snowdrops – A Touch of Spring!
Yes, a touch of spring – reverb! Have been trying out various spring reverb plugins, trying to convince myself that I don’t need a Wellspring – although it must be the coolest bit of audio hardware out there at the moment! So latest trial is Softube Spring Reverb – and seems pretty good so far. […]
Just another Sunday afternoon . . .
Another Sunday afternoon with the Black Sequencer. Four channels from the modular – including the Verbos harmonic oscillator into a ring modulator, and also the Mannequins Mangrove oscilator/ Three Sisters filter. Also added Syntrx II and ARP2600. Lots of plugins of course! Notably Audiority Ursa Major Space Station emulation, Sound Toys Echo Boy, and a […]
Sleepless . . . new adventures with Black Sequencer
More adventures with Erica Synths Black Sequencer indeed! This time been messing with Mannequins Mangrove Oscillator, Just Friends and Three Sisters filter – so, mostly modular – a lot of the usual suspects – AJH, Tip Top and of course Syntrx II – oh and there is a bit of Korg ARP2600 in there too! […]
Op3 No.2
A bit of festive Classitronica! An exhilarating slice of Baroque – Handel’s Concerto Grosso Opus 3 No.1. Here featuring Eurorack modular, SyntrxII and Korg ARP2660M – lots of fun!
Ailein Duinn
Sort of Folksynth! Similar in style to my synth version of The Cutty Wren, this time with a Gaelic flavour! Featuring various synths – mainly my Eurorack modular and SyntrxII recorded into Pro Tools. Hopefully plan to add a vocal – if I can find a Gaelic-speaking singer!
Variations on a Theme . . .
Developed from the track in my last post, I slowed the tempo right down and extended the progression and worked on some additional sounds. The Erica Synths Black Sequencer makes so much difference as I can now work on four tracks simulataneously rather than having to build up the track from separate passes from mono […]
Ooooh! Black Sequencer
Just experimenting with a new sequencer – this is probably the most sophisticated one I have ever used – and I have quite a few. It is the Erica Synths Black Sequencer. What an amazing piece of kit! Running four outputs from my modular it really lends itself to performance, so this was just a […]
It’s About Time . . .
Several sequences all of different lengths from the Arturia Keystep sequencer. Particularly pleased with the opening sound which is from the AJH V Shape – I really like this module! Other parts from Syntrx II (of course!), ARP 2600M and the now almost vintage Doepfer Dark Energy. Oh and Nightverb might be in there somewhere […]
Klee – My Favourite Sequencer 2
Based around my favourite Eurorack sequencer, the Klee, which employs two shift registers and a somewhat quirky method of producing three separate gates and triggers which takes a bit of getting used to! The main sequences are going through the AJH V-Shape and out through NightVerb. The swirling pads are from Syntrx II and the […]
