The Garden is an ongoing document of improvisations with electronic instruments. The aim is to share the process of making music in a way that is relaxed and enriching for the musician and the listener. It also demonstrates the sound of various instruments for people interested in that.
In this recording:
The intention was set to create a friendly interaction between these two synthesizers (the Roland S-1 and Arturia MicroFreak). A 26-step sequence was step-entered on the Micro Freak, then a 64-step sequence is recorded in realtime on the S-1. These are manipulated and changed throughout. There is no sync (MIDI or otherwise) between the two machines.
S-1 ➡ Boss BX-4 channels 1 & 2 (stereo)
Micro Freak ➡ Electro-Harmonix Grand Canyon ➡ Boss BX-4 channel 4
Recorded with Zoom Q2 recorder. Audio & video not edited.
