This was the second take as my first one had autofocus enabled and the camera was just all over the place. I know I didn't mention a few things in the 1U row, but I'll try to do a more detailed look at a couple of those modules at some point in the future.

If I can offer a suggestion: put the 2HP Shakmat HiPass before the compressor/limiter. I’m not super expert in compression but I’m pretty sure ideally you want unneeded frequencies gone before you hit a compressor so to not eat it’s headroom / trigger it’s threshold ceiling with inaudible bandwidth. Nice walkthrough of your case!
@thismeanswarbasse
@thismeanswarbasse Год назад
Oh great callout! I’ve had the HiPass a lot longer and it’s just always been right before the Wav Recorder, so when I added the Librae I didn’t even think to place it in between. That logic makes sense though and I’ll give it a shot.

Yeah one of the decisions I’ve been really happy with has been to just lock my total HP size and get comfortable with selling off things that aren’t right for me. It’s taken a while to get my second case (which started as just extra space for modules that got the boot from this one) into a similar level of purpose and direction, but there’s still a ways to go. I’ve got a video on a test for that case coming out soon.

I really appreciate your recording/output setup. I feel similar - not wanting to spend all my time thinking about producing music, but actually playing music, generating new ideas, and seeing where they lead. I have a similar setup with a Disting MK4 instead of the Wav recorder but have been back and forth on whether I should be using a DAW or not. You gave me a lot of freedom to stick with what I have and enjoy it. Thanks for the creative boost!

@ErikBoyko

Thanks for this. I've been watching the evolution of your main case because it was clear to me when I first saw it that we have similar intent, both in terms of the instruments we are "building" and our approaches to making music with them. Most of my pieces extend from a single sample as well, either from my field recordings or the St. Modular Radio module (I remember when you had that in your case as well). I love Morphagene through Beads as the trunk of my routing. I use 0-CTRL like you use Pressure Points to scrub, modify the loop length, pitch shift, etc. the sample on Morphagene. However, Beads then gives me a lot of sample mangling possibilities before I route it through my other effects in parallel. I also rely heavily on the W/D parameter on Beads (and all my effects modules, really) to evolve/progress the music. When I want to do something more rhythmic/melodic, my favorite technique is to seed Beads with some multiplication of the End of Splice Gate (clock) from Morphagene so Beads' grains live slice the loop. I'll also sometimes pass the clock through Steppy before it hits Beads so I can turn slices on/off and change the rhythm. It can also be fun to mix the static control voltages I send from 0-CTRL to the Slide parameter (playhead position) on Morphagene with a clocked LFO or sequence at a small grain length so each "scene" I select within the sample is already mangled.
@thismeanswarbasse
@thismeanswarbasse Год назад
I've still got that ST Radio module! Just not in this case at the moment as I've caught the field recording and microphone bug. It might make it back into this one at some point but for now it's in my B case. I really like the thought process you describe with the rhythmic/melodic scenes. I think I under utilize beads and frankly should purposely blow up this "init" patch more often and try other techniques. I thought I'd use pressure points to control the pitch of beads & panharmonium more often than I do, but its worth revisiting.

"I don't want to do any Eq, I don't want to do any mastering, I just want to make the music I like." Love it. I have always been into recording as well as music, but the the steps and time required in multitrack recording and mixing just aren't that fun. Making the music this way is much more enjoyable, so I just want to do that. It's not a job, it's something I do for fun. Thanks Warbase.
@thismeanswarbasse
@thismeanswarbasse Год назад
100% agree. Back in my days of being in a band and working with professional mixing and mastering engineers, I was always extremely impressed. But when I’m by myself and doing this for fun and for self-expression, I personally don’t want to take up all that time trying to become a professional in something that I’m just not going to ever be. This case helps get my audio to what I consider “good enough” and that’s alright with me.

You probably don’t have room for it, but watching this video I think you’d find the Endless Processor by Blukač Instruments intriguing. Whether you’re willing to eat 16hp for it is another matter, but it’s built on the DaisyDSP and could easily be reworked into a Versio module.
@thismeanswarbasse
@thismeanswarbasse Год назад
Never heard of it, but just in my 2 minutes of googling oh boy oh boy. its like panharmonium got a little integrated looper? That's immediately going on the list of things to buy & try over the next few months. I might be willing to bail on beads for it - which I was really only planning on doing if I could find a Miso Cornflakes...

Have you played with Kammerl's "spectral clouds" mode for clouds? It seems like it's somewhere between panharmonium and the original "spectral madness" mode. I'm just wondering about whether this comparison is close or not?

Hi I was wondering if you could talk about your end of chain, in particular your use of compression. I recently acquired a Librae Legio (thanks to this video!) and it is fun. But to be honest I am not sure if I am helping or hindering my final mix. It looks like you pretty much set it and forget it, which is what I hope to do. But how do you know how to set it? There are few videos on this module. I'm sure if you were to do a short vid, quite a few people would check it out.

How do you spell the manufacturer name of the wireless headphone transmitter?
@thismeanswarbasse
@thismeanswarbasse Год назад
“AIAIAI” The transmitter only works with their headbands and the modular approach to headphones but it’s super low latency and doesn’t have the same level of lag that Bluetooth does (which is also supported by the headphones in case I want to use them as just regular BT headphones)

Saw your comment on the other vid, I still want a zoom h6 or something for super portable field recording - but this case to me is all about a single “instrument” that can travel and do it all. Albeit with a bit more setup
