Really nice performance as always!! After watching your videos over a year now, I can surely say you're one of my favorites to watch who keeps inspiring me. Really appreciated 🙏
Absolutely mesmerizing too listen too and watch almost kind of reminds me of what the Webb telescope would sound like if they ever needed a sound designer with some of their pieces just sayin' nice piece Jay.🤯🎵🎶
What is truly amazing is that you literally have every single new piece of gear worth having. Right when it comes out you somehow own it and already be making music w it. You win the lotto or what??
I just discovered, and subbed, to your channel. You make som really inspiring live performances, and explaining your process with text above each instrument makes it even more engaging and unique. Keep up the good work!
Really nicely played, as usual. I got my cosmos this week and reading through the manual they said that the stereo input is useless since the l and r get split and played at different times, that makes me wonder how this piece would’ve been if the reverb had been after cosmos in the chain, or even with the delay…
Great ambient piece. That high synth riff sound was great and brought back the Vangelis vibes in a huge way. The Perfourmer sounds amazing. How does it compare to the Deckards Dream (I or II)? It seems like it has the same warm tones to it. Thanks for sharing again!
Hi! I love your videos! I have a question for you about the golden reverberator, if you have a second. When fully wet, does it actually keep the stereo signal that you send into it completely separate on the left and right? (I mean specifically for use on something like the cosmos, adding reverb without changing the stereo image that it’s creating.) Thanks!
Hey thanks! Sorry I'm just seeing this now. I don't have the Golden on hand at the moment, but most stereo reverbs will have some deliberate smearing from left to right, and I'm pretty sure Golden is no exception.
wow, beautiful stuff! "a musical diary of the time they were created." I like that, thats how music making is for me often aswell. So the cosmos is constantly recording in this video? is this the original firmware? could you elaborate a bit on what you mean with firstpass in reverse (how do you do that on cosmos)?
Original firmware, Cosmos records until somewhere around 5:20. I guessed when the first loop was about to be over and hit the reverse button, but then never touched it again. And thanks!
Reverb is a hall, and it's a modulated tape delay, if I remember correctly. Cosmos is just in its standard firmware with its dials as seen from the top-down shot. And thanks!
Definitely keeping the Cosmos. If I didn't try to do different things here all the time, I would just be making ambient ramblings with the Cosmos in the centre of it. I'm not sure it's suitable for anything else, though.
The Perfourmer is great if you want those clean tones of a single oscillator, or if you want to stack up a big stereo monophonic synth. I think a couple of small things would have made a big difference in making it a more useful polysynth (e.g. a master filter knob) but it's super cool. Reminds me a lot of the Matriarch, although I like the sound of the Matriarch a little better and like the true polyphony of the Perfourmer. And the brain business is great, thanks!
Cheapest is definitely your computer/DAW. From there, either the Launchpad Pro Mk3 or Circuit Tracks are amazing places to start. Circuit Tracks also gives you drums and a couple of synths. From there, I'd consider an Elektron (Digitakt or Octatrack), and then up to dedicated sequencers lime the Hapax. Best of luck!
