Curious about modular synthesis, electronic music, and sound design, but unsure how to get started? I have something for you! Join my free "intro to synthesis" mini course here: www.soundandsynthesis.com/firstpatch2022
PS: You don't need any special gear to do this-just a computer with VCV Rack (which is free to download).
this is the exactly the kind of glitchy stuff I am totally digging at the moment, I love it!
Thanks!!
Absolutely Beautiful! The sound FX music isn't bad either.
this is IT!!!!!!!!! I said it to you once before, but when I get the HS, its along with the sensel . If Frank Zappa could only have lived to see this. This is fantastic
Love the multi cameras 🎥 ....adds to to the super digital patch, that you morphed into ultra organic squelches ....always inspiring to hear you breaking new sonic frontiers ))))))))
Thank you so much 🤖🎛💙
Beautiful tones, I love the ambience of the track !
Morph MIDI magnifique! Alliteration aside that was awesome.
Thank you!
@@sarahbellereid3970 No, thank you!
Fantastic! I love how music like this, seemingly so digital and fragmented, can feel so organic and part of the natural world. These kinds of performances are more visceral and reflective of biological processes than any other kind.
Thank you so much!
Almost makes you rethink what "natural" consists of ;)
Good Job!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!! :)
Great trip!
Thanks - really enjoyed that. I have been waiting to hear the sensel morph thunder used in this context. Now I am convinced it will give me the ui I need for the Craftsynth 2.0 and Skulpt I am using. Love that Hydrasynth though!
Woah, that's epic!
Thanks!
This was so much fun. Thanks, Sarah!
thanks for tuning in!
What a fun combo! You probably sold a lot of both with this vid.
Thanks!
Awesome sound!!
Thank you!!
Good Job!!! :)
Thank you!
Inspiring and beautiful.
Thank you!
at about 7:45 "in the jungle, the mighty jungle...." :)
Love it!
Amazing!
Nice!
Thanks!
Sarah Belle Reid thank you!
Super glitchy 👍👍👍
Always :)
Exceptional. A sort of liberation. Really beautiful wildness. I'm assuming that a lot of this lies in the sound design and could be performed with the pads on the desktop?
Thank you! Yeah you could absolutely do a lot of this using the built in pads. The biggest difference with the Morph is that in addition to pressure you can also use the x and y location of the key press as a modulation source.
How is the Morph connected to the Hydrasynth?
I’m using a Kenton MIDI-USB host to connect them
yesssssss 😋
Alien + Blade Runner + Battlestar Galactica + Hydrasynth 🥰
(imagine grafting particularly compelling slices of something like this together via some sort of sampling/looping mechanism. and composing with those pieces. just thinking out loud here Im such a beginner)
Sarah you are amazing! Congratulations. Can you explain how do you map the morph to the synth, which parameters are controlled by the thunder? It’s a one to one mapping or more a many to many kind of interaction? Thanks.
Thank you so much! The patching is a little complicated to explain, but I'm mostly using the Morph as a standard MPE controller -- a lot of the interesting interaction is being handled by per-note randomization on the Hydrasynth in one-shot mode.
How can a chap procure that patch data?
Do you have the recorded music you did for the short film 'Bubble'? Was fan-freakin-TASTIC!
I felt like I was dropped on a planet of R2-D2s
👍R2D2 filibuster
And you won. You made me wanna have a Hydrasynth ...
Does this require mapping with a computer first or can you just plug directly to hydrasynth and set it up with hydrasynth? Super cool sounds!
Thanks! You have to connect the midi controller into a MIDI-USB Host (I use the Kenton USB Host MK2), and the Morph does come with a few MPE maps pre-loaded but if you want to customize things you need to set it up in the computer first. Hope this helps!
How the heck did you map the Sensei?!?!
Wow, awesome work.
Thanks! The Sensel is configured to act as a pretty standard MPE controller in this setup, so using the x-axis as pitch bend, y-axis as CC74 and z-axis as aftertouch -- those are controlling a bunch of things in the mod matrix on the hydrasynth, but there's also a lot of per note randomization using the LFOs in one-shot mode.
@@sarahbellereid wow thank you for taking the time to respond. Very much appreciated.
Been a fan of your music since I first heard about you on your special modified trumpet.
Keep up the amazing work.
It was exactly the type of thing I was wanting to hear from the hydra.
Wondered if it could go that far out.
Please inquire about the randomization of notes...???
That machine seems incredibly powerful.
Is similar to subotnick compisitions
