Hive Mind - Generative Ambient Eurorack Modular Synth piece no. 105 - Korg SQ-64, Morphagene
For this piece, I recorded a segment with Telharmonic and Tides in audio mode into Morphagene. Only the recording is playing in this piece, but I left them patched. That recording has morph turned up so that pretty soon in the piece, it starts layering to form different grooves that change in feel over time. Korg SQ-64 is playing a randomized melody on Nymphes. I hope you enjoy and please let me know what you think!

I Play Dulcimers - Generative Modular Eurorack piece no. 104 - Morphagene, Tides, Beebo, Norns
Переглядів 12521 день тому
For this piece, I actually used my midi keyboard to play the Poly Beebo, which is running a less common sound on Rings. I recorded a longer piece into Morphagene, and turned the gene size and morph way up to capture all the microsound fragments of just a short part of the recording at a time. I used my Varigate 4 to randomly sequence what parts of the recording would play. This happens very slo...
In the Belly of the Whale - Generative Ambient Eurorack Modular piece no. 103 - Morphagene, Norns
Переглядів 235Місяць тому
This piece draws some inspiration from a recent @RedMeansRecordingModular video, where he had this whoosh of sound followed by a booming bass drum. That gave me some ideas that I used as the foundation of this piece. I also recorded a few chords into Morphagene, and turned the gene size and morph up to give it a more granular, fluttering texture. The same gate from Tides that triggers the bass ...
For the End of Time - Generative Ambient Eurorack Modular piece no. 102 - Beebo, Rings (sort of)
Переглядів 129Місяць тому
The name for this piece is inspired by Messiaen's "Quartet for the End of Time", one of my favorite modern classical pieces. I am using Korg SQ-64 to sequence Rings running in Beebo, a first for me that allows me to have more control over the notes played in Rings. There's actually a lot of things in my patch that I'm not sure if they're doing much. For one, there's two instances of Rings. I'm ...
Olympus - Generative Ambient Eurorack Modular piece no. 101 - Tides, Morphagene, Korg SQ-64
Переглядів 2102 місяці тому
For this piece, I have Tides in audio mode, with each output going into the 4 inputs of my mixer. Varigate is using a mix of gates to trigger envelopes for two of the voices, and CV to control the volume less rhythmically and more gradually for the other two voices. Korg SQ-64 is sequencing both the upper voice of Tides and the root note, resulting in a mix of chords and melodies. Everything is...
Centennial - 100 minutes of generative ambient modular eurorack music - piece no. 100
Переглядів 972 місяці тому
For my 100th piece, I wanted to do something big. I have attempted to include all the gear I use for these videos into my longest piece by far. Firstly, I have my Korg SQ-64 sequencing 2hp Bell and Telharmonic. A piano recording, played by Morphagene, is spliced up, and a gate from Varigate 4 very slowly switches between splices. This drives the main evolution of the piece. Tides is slowly chan...
Returning Home - Generative Ambient Eurorack Modular piece no. 99 - Morphagene, Telharmonic
Переглядів 2032 місяці тому
For this piece, I wanted to start with a sequence on the 2hp Bell that went through delay, with nothing else going through that delay. Next, I had a very sparse sequence for the Telharmonic, which is in shift-register mode and in which the changes in notes leads to an envelope opening up the C4RBN filter that it is running through. I also have a piano recording running in Morphagene. Tides is a...
The Martian - Generative Ambient Eurorack Modular piece no. 98 - Dreadbox Nymphes, Korg SQ-64
Переглядів 2932 місяці тому
For this piece, I have my Korg SQ-64 sequencing chords and a melody that both go to my Dreadbox Nymphes. Within Nymphes there is a slow LFO that is modulating the frequency, sometimes making the sounds brighter and sometimes more mellow. This is going into Morphagene, which is playing everything back and is being modulated by Tides. The result is different amounts of glitchy playback that is so...

I love the combination of the initial sequence and the unpredictable playbacks, the blend is definitely chaotic, maybe even a little unsettling!
Thanks! If I were to make this into a full-blown piece, I'd definitely want to reign it in a little bit, maybe turn the morphing (layering) down
Fonki
Fantastic listening here whilst I'm working this morning. Thanks 🙏
Thank you so much! I appreciate it :)
It is uploaded in mono?
That's correct :)
Nice gear, nicer sound. Deserves far more views. Great stuff. Love the movement outside😊
Thanks a lot! I really appreciate that. Views have gone down for me a bit over the last year, as I suspect they have for a lot of people, but the total watch time for my videos has stayed the same so I am content for now :) thank you for listening!
What is the device with the tape on the screen?
It's called Norns by the company Monome. You can only get it used but it's a very cool device. It has multiple programs, the one I'm using is called Tapedeck and it's for effects and processing. But Norns can also be used as a synth to make it's own sounds too.
what is that background sound in 9:37-41? where it comes from??
If you're thinking of the synth Sound, that is a Make Noise Telharmonic module, which does great polyphonic oscillator noises. The other noises are kalimba recordings that are just maybe layered in a different way. Thank you for listening!
Congrats on your 100th!
Thank you so much! I've been excited to reach this point
A great background to my working day here 👍💛
Fantastic, glad you like it!
Nice!😊❤
Thank you for listening!
Wonderfully chilled as usual 👍💛
Thanks so much! Yeah, after doing a few pieces that were more drum-focused, I decided to go back to a more pure ambient style for this one. Thanks for listening!
@@sonicshawarmamodular Love it
I love this. Is it expensive?
Glad you like it! Unfortunately yes, it is expensive. This synthesizer is made up of several little modules, and each one can cost between 100-500 dollars. The good thing is, you don't have to buy all of it at once, you can build it up gradually. You can also use a free online program called VCV Rack. This program takes a while to learn but the whole thing is very fun!
@@sonicshawarmamodular I already have too many expensive hobbies. But I'll definitely try the online software thingy you recommend
@@SanneBerkhuizen sweet! I would recommend watching lots of tutorials on how to use it. When I first started, I was pretty terrible so stay patient with it and don't give up :)
Bright day soundtrack ✨️
Thank you for listening!
Great description, I could have more detail even. :)
Thank you for the feedback, I appreciate it! I can definitely remember that tides was going to the Morph and gene size parameters of morphagene. Also for the chord sequence, I just did all the chords in the key of C# major, except I replaced the usual F minor to F major. I don't rememberich else but I hope that helps!
❤❤❤
Thank you for listening!!
A nice wind down at the end of my day here with this. 😁💛
Thanks so much!! I appreciate it :)
Sweet! thanks for sharing 🎶❤ Thanks much for the detailed setup/performance info in the description 🙂
Thank you! Hopefully the description is helpful and makes sense.
time to spend!
@@DJ-Lazy-Lodger haha that's right! Thanks for listening!
Spending time, listening 😉
That's cool. What is that little thing displaying the chords?
Thank you! It's called Norns by the company Monome. It's an open-source little musical computer that runs a lot of different programs made by users. There's a ton of possibilities with it so it's a lot of fun to use and learn. This is a kit-version called Norns Shield, it's no longer in production but you can find used ones :)
So relaxing on an evening stroll 💛
Thanks so much!!
I really enjoyed this experimental piece. The sequencing is spot on, giving it a rhythmic flow that keeps things interesting. It’s well-crafted and engaging-great job!
Thanks so much! I tried to have a balance where things lined up with each other but not too much :)
Love it, as always. Subtle melody and rhythm. Fantastic to wake up to on this sunny late summer morning here, with the mist over the river 💛
Oh good I'm glad! I don't usually do drums so I was trying to get the Melody to fit well but still be kind of ambient and flowing, sort of like Miles Davis in a way. Glad you like it!
Love this combination… the experimentation … the voice it really adds a lot of energy to this
Thanks, I'm glad you think so! When I listened to the music, I felt like it needed some kind of compelling speech or interview to match it
as always.. Absolutely mesmerizing... This generative ambient piece is pure magic
Thanks so much, I'm glad you think so!
Gorgeous soundscape, fab to listen to here at work 😁
Thank you so much!
Wonderful 😊
Thanks so much!
peaceful .. , so meditative.. using Messiaen!!.. Love it!
Thanks so much! Messiaen is instantly amazing and adds so much, but there is still more for me to learn with it
The generative ambient sounds from the Eurorack are a mesmerizing journey... Truly amazing...
Thank you! It's wild, looking back and seeing how far one can go in their modular journey
Neat!
Thank you!
Gorgeous to listen to here whilst I'm working. 💛 Were the birds local to you?
Ah great question. The norns Messiaen script was developed by a European man, so the three birds I'm using are a Eurasian Wren, Robin, and Blackbird that I believe are all native to Europe.
Wonderful 😊
Thank you!
Fantastic as always. Intriguing results you always get on such a small system. 💛👍
Thank you! It's true, even on the small system I still have gotten some quite new results. It helps to have some external synths and instruments too. With all of its different programs, norns helps provide a lot of variety
This is fascinating m'friend 👏👏👏
Oh I'm glad you think so, thank you! Always trying to make something that has an interesting process behind it
Really interesting, and lovely to listen to as always. 💛
Thanks so much :) glad you like it
another little gem here...
Thanks so much!
I've never touched Norns 🥲
@@Probbie ahhh that's fair. While some scripts are easy and simple, some are tricky.
This is fascinating 😊
Glad you think so! It's a really inspiring new script, can't wait to learn it more
love the patch and the light of the video.....
Thank you! I'm hoping to capture more sunsets in future videos
Perfectly wonderful. Subscribed.. 😊
Thanks so much!!
This is gorgeous. Just listening whilst driving home from my son's house on a sunny evening. Perfect, uplifting sounds 💛🌞
Wow, thank you so much that's so kind :) I'm glad with how it turned out
love the light, airy vibes in this one
Thank you so much! I like it too, I wasn't sure how it would come out and then just landed on this nice mix of frequencies and timbres :)
A lovely piece. 💛 Beautifully crafted, and I like how you are changing the chords. I keep meaning to experiment like this myself. 👍
Thank you very much! I knew when I got into eurorack I wanted to donwhat I could to achieve polyphony and chord changes. Not the easiest thing with eurorack but it's good fun:)
good job i subscribe to your channel, thanks for sharing
Thank you so much! I appreciate the support
Sounds beautiful!
Thank you so much! Glad you like it
Beautiful!
Thank you so much! Glad you like it :)
Gorgeous and inspiring 💛 I take it something is randomly changing chords throughout?
That is mostly correct! It's a random trigger from Marbles, which is running in Poly Beebo. That trigger is causing a sequencer to change the chords. It's actually the same 6 chords, but since it happens at random times and the other sounds may be playing different notes, it's sort of easy to forget that the same chord progression is playing
@@sonicshawarmamodular it's a great idea. Gonna have to try something similar sometime 🙂
@@jugs0101 yeah its more simple in a lot of way than one would think, but it does the job :)
generative kind is hard to reach.
It's not easy to get exactly right but with time and patience it can be achieved. Thank you for listening!
Love the chord progression! It really suits the ambient textures 😌
Thanks so much!
Great working music. I love your minimalist set up and ability to get what you do out of it.
Thank you very much! One day I'd love a bigger setup but I am so happy with what I've got too :) it does the job!
Great background sounds whilst I'm working here again! 😁
Wooohooo! Glad you like it!
