Per Modular ad Astra!

More modular and Black Sequencer! Oscillators AJH and Verbos Harmonic Oscillator. AJH filters and V-Shape in there. Syntrx II of course and a little bit of Moog Subharmonicon. Lots of other stuff going on in ProTools of course!
Popping Candy!
More fun with the modular and Black Sequencer with added SyntrxII and Moog Subharmonicon. Gone for something a little more overtly ‘electronic’. Also really like my new Focusrite 18i20 4th Gen – I can now have (almost) all my synths plugged in . . . well, almost almost!
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 […]
