    The fact that we are able to just let 3 machines make this up..... is what human civilisation is all about. This song belongs on a spaceship floating to Alpha Centauri...

    This song just tears me apart. It makes me long for more elements to it, but the minimalism is what makes it so great. Really makes you feel emotions, I love it!

    If you just posted the audio and told us your setup was a load of big name, top of the range modular synths I would believe you. It just goes to prove you don't need the biggest, most expensive setup to produce some fantastic music. Not only do I wish this track was longer, but I love your approach - just 3 mini synths a couple of effects processors and a phone! Korg should be endorsing you because this video is a perfect advert for the Korg Volca range. I've got this track looping while I work. Thank you.

Сколько денег вы тратите на стойку из трёх компонентов? 30 000 ₽ примерно. За эти деньги можно купить приличный синтезатор или тон генератор прошлых лет. Который на две головы выше по качеству

    Heya, did u multitrack record all three Volcas with the Boss Micro BR?
    The BR seems interesting but I don’t understand the use of 8-track multitrack when u only have 2 audio inputs. So not even enough inputs for your three volcas?

    • @stochasticstep
      @stochasticstep  5 років тому

      Hey. You can't really multitrack. I just record everything to a two track stereo. My three volcas is here going into a mixer, from the mixer into the effect pedal, and stereo out from effect pedal into stereo in/line in on the recorder. It's a very limited recorder, bought it years ago for recording my guitar. But it does the job :)

    p.s: anyway, you sold me Volca modular with this video ;) Great job!
