- Hey guys -- let's continue creating some new and interesting colors by throwing the Tascam 246 Cassette Recorder and several other compressors, distressors, and more at the signal coming from my Buchla and Eurorack system.

Nice to see i did the same and still have the mt-100 Here. You probably know but for viewers,you can use one channel for cv recording as wel or use it as a master clock with the pitch to your modular 🎉
10:47 onwards is some Mars Volta shit. Absolutely beautiful. Great video, thank you for sharing. Great to have you back!
I think I hear a Desmodus eating a Buchla. Absolutely stunning sounds.
Every time I mention the name “Buchla” to my wife she gets mad. I want your setup so bad but idk how I would ever afford it. Babies coming next month. Guess we will just have to enjoy yours! Thanks again for posting all these videos! ❤
Somehow that doesn’t sound like the kind of relationship that is ready for kids 😅

No very ready for kids. Been wanting a 200e for over a decade. Can’t complain my wife bought me a Moog Voyager last Christmas. I laugh and tell her but we need a Buchla baby 😉
great setup ! the 246 saturation sounds so good. We also made most of skinny puppy demos using this in the early 80's. Great thing is how well cassette format holds up, as i can still playback the old tapes ! Super great explanation of your rig. Im looking to get rid of my console and build a similar input output system. We met once long ago in Amsterdam (97) So its great to see your success Tom, all the best to you
cleanse fold manipulate is my favorite!
Please repress Weapon!
I just picked up Brap And Forth volume 8….is this the machine you recorded most of that on?
244 to be exact. It died so I did what Tom did and grabbed a mint restored 246 recently @@recycled_city
@@scaremeister sweet! Any chance it might make it into future recordings?
Genius !
Well... you made me get ou my old Fostex X-28H and plug it in... awesome.
Those are some yummy textures. I'd be happy to listen to a bunch of hour-long tracks of this flavor. Also, very inspiring for my own noise-making process.
I appreciate you sharing your workflows and insights, it's inspirational and educational. Cheers 👍

@7:34 That classic Tom and Jerry scream 🤣
Real teat showtime. Love this stuff. love your pul n dess rack.
Here's a cool tip: There's a free program called the Akaizer that can time stretch (and/or pitch shift) any WAVE or AIFF sound file in the style of the 'cyclic' time stretch which featured on old Akai sound samplers. Might be useful for some of you.
This inspires me to want to create a live session within Ableton to play on my APC40. I don’t have the money right now to get any analog gear, but I have Ableton and a controller and plenty of ideas to record, process and perform in session mode!
i still have a Nerve's record and remember a live concert in belgium. Was great times.
Thanks for taking the time to do these great videos. cheers!!!
That sounds dystopian as fuck. Love it.
Fantastic!
What's great about these experimentation vidoes is that is not actually about the expensive gear, it's about creative ideas for sound design that you can implement even if you can't afford any of this gear. I bet lots of people watching this have 10000$ eurorack setups but have never actually 'resampled' anything in their life....
Really haunting and alien soundscape, it would work so well in scifi horror movie!
Wow what a sound very Nice😎👌
Interesting; I'm using my morphagene and arbhar in similar ways as you're using a tape-deck.
i love how we call disgustingly epic mean and ominous monster sounds as "jams". that's my kinda jam.
Very cool! My favorite video of yours so far. I had the Tascam 234 (rackmount) growing up, this brings back so many memories. I know yours is the 246 (same concept). What is the reverb on the Buchula tape track? Was it in the Eurorack H9 reverb or a send on 246 to something else? Those tube-techs are awesome but super expensive! Thanks for the video Tom.
I am curious about your Dynaudio Stands... I was on the Dynaudio site, did not find them. I need high stands like you have for my Cores because of my tall DELL monitors.. be cool to know if you feel like sharing?
Sci-fi movie Infiltration mission at night in a foggy area with surveillance lights and drones. This is the type of scene I see with this soundscape
Junkie doing the Cortini 😆
Thats some hadron collider material🙏
I remember TDK SA tapes were the best, I have loads of them still and I must really get around to digitising them as there is some great stuff on them from a while back
Ive had my Tascam Porta one since 1992 - over the years its gone from bring my main recording medium to an experimental, lofi sound mangling tool but i still love it and will never part with it
quality sound
Amazing set up and lesson. Slow down tape with Shimmer Reverb pitch dark\bright mode might sound big with negative\positive envelope filters to LFO-1 & 2 -env mode via Virus TI. Relly like the big headroom tape-playback though hardware. Reminder is, The Dolby NR input signal needs to be set just right +3 of a max 8. Don't have the real TI, using the usual suspects DSP. Dose your Module Rack setup have LFO-Env mode?
Used to have the even older model of the Tascam, the 144! Squeezed the s**t out of it when doing my multitrack synth recordings!
Thank you for doing this... seeing an OST master at work, specifically working for us fans, is simply amazing. I long to put a synth in #FiringRoom1 and since it is mid winter I am gonna repost my daughters student film "Crystal-Age of Ice" but with Tom's "At the Speed of Force": ua-cam.com/video/ct5GWbeqZEY/v-deo.html Yes Tom you get first dibs at the OST for Crystal once we are Greenlit...
next soundtrack in the making :)
Two stereo linked Distressors? C'mon! I'd never have the 246 there, it'd be soaked in drool! There's an argument for Distressors being some of the best value in pro audio, how much more would two LA2As and two 1176s set one back, around 4 times as much I'd guess nowadays? Mine was a little Porta 05, loved it. Perhaps you could show how we'd bounce down 4 tracks to 1 or 4 tracks 2, either to free up a couple of extra tracks or over and over again to crush, colourize and noisy up a pad or atmospherics. Some times you could get away with mixing flute, noise fx or even the high passed reverb of another track onto that 4th bass track bounce, then use EQ to 'mix' 1 track as 2 elements. Constraints...
Great stuff! How loud are you mixing your stuff in dB? On this movie sounds really loud.
Very nice.
What's the reason you do quad?
Found some old tapes in great condition but the only quality tape player I can find is the TEAC W-1200 and thats $500 with rca connections. I think is just better to sell off those tapes and forget about it lol.
very cool, no denying
( however i will never justify modular, awesome buttons, hands on and everything, spaceship, totally, but too expensive for what you get from it., but then again, it is very cool, i get that)
( guitarpedals are always a good idea tho..)
22:10 what if I told you, that compressor you have been tweaking for an hour is on bypass... 🌚
Your shoe is untied.
do you have the Lavry Savitr AD-24-200 Gold would it mix with modules.
What reverb did you use at the end of the signal chain?
Is the unit modified and the dbx disabled? I want to mod my 244 with a switch to turn the dbx on/off
if junkie xl drowns his jam tracks in reverb, then so can i
How’s the NFT coming along?
🚀🎛🚀
It affected me very much...the transporter shut down half a mile from the city walls, no way in, no way out. The reactor must be shut down inside the walls of this dystopian city, one of the last to continue feeding everything in this city. An upturned transporter, I see movement, a child, trying to see and unsure, could he know the way in ?. He puts out a hand and gestures to his mouth...😮.
Sold my 246 in 1987.
Season 3 is officially about the Buchla. We get it, Tom. You really love it. Can we at least see how you integrate it in your soundtrack workflow? Which is what this channel was about? Dank je wel. Ik vraag toch niet zo veel?
He’s done that a lot before he already said this season is about the Buchla and I think it’s the best season.
@@gel1912 Thanks for the reply, must have missed that part. I am more of a Moog lover (in the context of soundtracks), I just don't see the practicality in using a Buchla in this context. I just do not have this amount of money. I'll just stick to my Behringers, which serve their purpose pretty well.
Entitled comment of the day.
Unbelievable how some people think they can demand just anything rather than just being grateful@@ringtangting
There's been a flood of scam account replies to comments I make on your videos. Like, a LOT of them.
