Great chat with two musical masters. I love when Steve Reich talks about one of my all time favorite songs, Everything In Its Right Place by Radiohead. “It seems like it's really simple, but it's really very cloudy – it's a marvellously simple but constantly ambiguous kind of progression.”

Yes, to which I'll add - keep making that half-broken Pd patch, keep collecting field recordings of your washing machine, keep producing dance music that inflicts foot injuries, keep doing exactly what you're doing as it's a hell of a lot better than what a lot of people are doing with their time.

Inside it's basically lots of instances of Sync Vereor and Ruina (both free) going in to an EQ, all with tons of parameter modulation all tied back to the modwheel all "tuned" differently to create the raspiness. This isn't even half of the macro setup lol

🙏 It's PluginGuru Unify, been using it for years now. It's a wrapper/host for other plugins, but with lots of useful features on top. You can run it as a plugin, but I tend to use it more in standalone mode because it cuts out a lot of DAW crap doing patch design and lets you to play more.

Even if you don't have Bitwig or the Grid, your man here knows his stuff and you can learn a thing or two, great vid. (and if you're jealous of the Grid there's always plugdata 😀) Also big shout out to Astrobear, he on here yet? #Bitwig #DSP #sounddesign #audio #plugins #plugdata

I have it, it's ok, drivers used to be a bit unstable but have improved. It does help but can take a bit of tweaking to avoid it doing weird things, like all automated stuff. If you wanted some alternatives, ARC by IK does a good job, but you can get a long way with REW and a cheap measurement mic.

I'm obviously preaching to the converted then😁 If you haven't already check out the Modal Filter in MSF. Load some audio in to the 4 Structures to "sample" the harmonic relationships, it's so good.

el mono @mono.audio · 30/11/2024

Personally, I think MSoundFactory trumps MXXX, but only if you're in interested in synthesis more. You get MXXX *INSIDE* MSF, you just can't route external signals in to it, so you get aaallll the FX to play with, on top of some incredible synthesis stuff, all on the same platform.

el mono @mono.audio · 30/11/2024

Love the Melda stuff! If you can invest a little time and get past the interface, they're hugely powerful and flexible If you're spending money on a VST synth workstation, and if you time it right, picking up MSoundFactory for around 100 bucks is insanely good value for money - you get all the FX!

And if you're a little adventurous then there's a CLAP Wrapper that'll let you run it in a VST host, you'll need to build from source, but works fine... github.com/free-audio/c...

Yeah that's a fair take, sorry I was just going on what you said about length. Video on here only launched a short time ago so I'm sure it'll get better over time, and don't let it put you off posting - that last render is tasty!

I wouldn't put myself in that "plugin maker" group just yet, but I'm interested in what you're cooking up.

el mono @mono.audio · 28/11/2024

Well yes, but I'm confused - according to those limits there's nothing stopping you doing that? People are uploading all sorts of videos already, in a variety of resolutions and lengths. They just get transcoded for delivery and storage, like everywhere else. Unless I'm missing something?

I wouldn't go that far, could you not just use YouTube or Vimeo? You're posting on a social media site anyway.

Does anybody want to make a #vcvrack patch with me? I have done this several times in the past with people. Usually we just go back and forth adding things like voices or fx and changing the patch until we think its done.

I think it was from 1976, but yeah I noticed that too. To be hoenst I'm not usre why, perhaps technique of the performers have changed, maybe there was a demand for it to a certain length becuase of vinyl restrictions and now we just have more freedom for recording mediums?
