Insanic4 Live Improvisation

[wouterz]

Here is a live improvisation I made. I use the JazzMutant Lemur to control the digital mixer that runs on my Sonic Core 18 DSP Scope PCI system. The level meters on the Lemur are controlled by a MIDI signal which is generated by a Scope Modular 4 patch that converts the level of the audio signal to a MIDI control change message. The Cubase arrangement is pretty empty with only one MIDI track which is controlling the JV-1080 pad sound. The rest of the sequence runs on the Nord Modular G2 and the Machinedrum. The drums from the Machinedrum run through my brand new T.C. Electronic FireworX which I bought three days ago. The FireworX is controlled by the Nocturn controller box. No softsynths or softeffects where used in this track, it's all hardware.

Hey, Wouterz, congratulations, really liked your setup and the music.

Thanks for sharing!

That's awesome...
The Epitamy of hybrid configs, really nice.

I like the way you have designed you rproject window too.
Many Stereo and Mono source modules..

VERY cool!

Really enjoyed your uploads wouterz. The glitchy drum patches are especially inspiring and has got the old cogs moving again. Think I'm gonna try my hand at a patch utilising scope drum modules (then maybe shroomz' blue series and/or cwm modules) triggered via silentway gates in ableton and then throw in some heavy cv processing to glitch the mofo up!

Is Silent Way working well with the Scope Modular? Is it worth getting it just for that purpose?

There are a number of good reasons to get silentway but the biggest bonuses for me are host sync, which has been possible for a while using recorded ramp waveforms, but having a vsti that outputs the correct waveform and has options to divide the measure makes things much easier. ( i did build a simple synth edit synth that output a saw at host tempo but I never got around to building the option to change measure which did limit it somewhat) and having more modulation sources from host makes things even more interesting

So far I've tested it for lfo and envelope modulation which performs well and is sample accurate with host tempo. Ramp out to drive sync sequencers. A saw lfo set to follow transport performs this duty so mod sequences are now also accurate to host. Having issues with note dropouts when sending high density gate info across asio (high hats triggering on 16th measures 120+) but the workaround at present would be to sequence gates internally with external ramp.
