Audio diary 008: Stretch marker abuse. I like timestretching. And the digital flavour it imparts. Especially when it gets really crunchy and stuttery. I wrote a happy accident script that randomly adds markers to the item with random slope values. www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJC_... #gameaudio

In 2021 I recorded and released "Wrong Reference", an album primarily composed of recordings from a Serge modular panel. I don't have it anymore. I traded it for a Kyma. marchasselbalch.bandcamp.com/yum yhjz-3vcd 3qbu-x9sc wgdd-j8hw sk4p-k2ms snpb-glkd sd9w-3jth 6up4-bj33 kw94-wkc4 upth-w84a

The first CD I bought with my own money was Metallica's Kill Em All. I had 'stolen' all my father's Metallica CDs and he didn't have the first two in his collection. When asked why he said something like "it's silly acid rock" and I just knew I had to go the record store and buy it.

Toying with the idea of bringing a second laptop with me for a potential future gig solely for running a Supercollider patch that scrambles text, prints it to the console in big letters, screen pointed towards the audience.

Sony ends the production of physical discs soonish. Two days ago I found this is in the "take if if you can use it"-space. No clue if it works - and the used marketplace prices for Gamecube accessories and games makes me want to just put it back where I found it.

I got a TC1280 rack delay for free recently. The MIDI input peaked my interest. Looking through the manual and it says "MIDI SYSEX documentation is available on request". Odd. MIDI implementation might be lifted from the TC2290, so will try to build a Max patch when I can to mangle the delay times.

"What if Phillip Glass was boss music?" is a thought that popped up last week. So I had try adding a lightly-edited "Rubric" to a gameplay capture from Shadow of the Colossus. Fun. www.youtube.com/watch?v=dVkJ...

A Copenhagen acquaintance is close to finishing up building a 4 track looper with built in FX, out here for a test run and beta testing. Very lovely to use. Currently unnamed and not yet for sale. The audio is a multitrack thing of me feeding it some various source and mixing it about.
