Mind blowing! Coul you explain the process a bit? Is this a mixer? You know I had the same idea last week playing with amen breaks amd harsh noise no-input pedal!
Yes it’s a mixer, a matrix mixer to be precise. The patch is explained in the big demo video I did about it here: Aranea by Ritual Electronics - Matrix Mixers are great fun ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-j3PXsbCThWQ.html
Awesome, Squarepusher-esque music! <3 BTW, it would be great to record such videos using higher internal scaling in Live, so that people on phones and laptops - let's be honest, that's probably majority of views - can see better the devices & what you do there :)
Voltage-controlled matrix mixers are great fun too. I've had an NLC cluster (8 in/4 out) for several years and love using it with a touch controller + Serge VCS to really slowly fade in/out feedback paths. Great fun especially with Erbeverb/Echophon. Also with lowpass filters in a feedback loop around a spring reverb, like Intellijel describe in the manual for the first version of Springray, real bowed-string vibes if your input is a saw wave
Some nice gnarly sounds out of the Centaur! Have you tried a pair of Banshees through the Jeweller Cast as a complex voice? What are your thoughts on it compared to something like a Brenso or Mindphaser?
I've been trying so hard to recreate moog labyrinth style generative sounds using the 2600 and circuit rhythm. Basically I create one or two 8 or 16 step sequence with a few notes of a scale and use "random playback" mode on the rhythm, then I try to tweak the 2600s sounds. I haven't quite nailed it, but I'm working on it. If I can get the duophonic mode to play the oscillators reliably with polyrhythms coming from the Rhythm I think I can get that Moog Labyrinth sound. In other words, I'm inspired by how much mileage you get out of 2600 and you remind me to use it more.
Pleasing bleeps, bloops and blops...I've been thinking/planning (modular grid got me engrossed) on separating my euro gear and having 1/2 dedicated to my neutron and vco 2600( my attempt at having an arp), so your video is giving me ideas. Merci.
Just grabbed a Stylophone Beat and Gen X-1 is definitely the next one! I already joined the pre order list for their brand new DS-2 can't wait to have one Damn I love Stylophone😮
I bet it's great, as much of the SE emulations (I love the Arturia one) but indeed these giant knobs are something. I always wanted one of these things.
I’ve been split on getting this since I already have Sapel, but the audio processing, sample and hold input, and burst generator make it different enough that it’s worth it to me. Between Bagai, Sapel, and Falistri, the modulation possibilities are really unlimited. Thanks, Stazma!
get it! The real magic is sending a typo-sync'd complex LFO into the S&H input instead of noise. Send the stepped output to quantization and on to a v/oct input. Modulate the bit reduction knob and the shape of the sync'd LFO. Just magic. You get a wonderful randomness, but also it repeats based on the timeframe of the sync'd LFO. I'll have to make my own video!
Brenso feels like it is the ultimate analog, knob per function zap generator. Curious if other dual complex vco's can do those timbres (maybe its fault of other people's demos dunno). Fall in love with Bagai, it has so many possibility in it. Those bursts and clock modulation are killer. Excellent demo as always, thank you!
Frap tools' modules seem really cool and really well designed, but my god do they look awful; like someone let their child colour in their circuit diagram. Ace demo though, as per usual
Haha it’s funny how subjective this is as I also find the Fraps Tools design very nice looking like @pugix. BAGAI is maybe my favorite panel of their line. Glad you liked the demo anyway ;-)
@@pugixI love the look and the quality is exceptional, but I did not jive with the ergonomics and found the panel layout pretty confusing, personally, when I tried Falistri. Brenso isn’t too bad, especially if you are familiar with the complex dual VCO thing, but Falistri is not at all intuitive, IMO, and the panel graphics were tough to read when lighting was less than ideal. I do love Frap tools, though. They look extremely cool, especially when it is the whole system, and I’m sure you get used to the minimalist graphics.
