Hello my friends. We are living in dark times these days. As i was noodling around on the Arturia Minibrute 2s and had it running through the Strymon BigSky, i was soaked into this dark and very atmospheric Pad-Sound, which instantly made me thought about Syria and all the conflicts in the world! From then on it was only a matter of adding something with the Elektron Analog Four - and i ended up with this!
I hope you like it. Dont forget to leave me your like if this is the case. And tell me what you think in the comments, will ya? I wish you a great day my friends!
All the best,
umonox

Quick Notes about the Setup (for those who wanna know): Minibrute 2s goes into the BigSky, BigSky goes into the Analog Four and the Analog Four is recording the Stereo-Sum via Overbridge. The Minibrute 2s has two patterns that im switching from time to time and it receives MIDI-Clock and Transport from the Analog Four. The Chorale Machine is used on the BigSky to make the Minibrute sound like nothing else :-) The Analog Four delivers the Bass and the two other Sounds (the one im "playing" live and another one which is sequenced). Multiband Compression / Limiting was applied after the Recording was done. Cheers :-)

man Im so astonished by this piece, great work btw I was so focused on the synths, that I almost didnt notice the reflections on the table :)

thank you Lukas! Seems i have a very high contrast on my monitor - these "reflections" are what i always see first! But it can also be that i take notice because i made them :-D Yeah, currently i could do even more reflections with different topics - and the outcome would still be the same and fit to this little tune! Strange world we are living in at the moment, really strange ...

Equipment Check: I have Elektron Analog 4, Delay, and Reverb Pedals, analog mixer. What's missing is the Minibrute 2s and money

I enjoyed this music. It would be excellent as a soundtrack for a film. I imagine a scene of people preparing to attack something who will be killed if they are discovered.
@umonox
@umonox 6 лет назад
really? i found it rather "depressing" and "uncomfortable" - much like the situation in our world currently is. very interesting to hear how different the interpretation of this one can be! :-)

I agree with Dox. It's the Carpenter-esque "timeclock" bass that creates that sick tension. Something is about to happen. Love it.
@kennethjaworski1526
@kennethjaworski1526 5 лет назад
This is very nice... I imagine you could control that Analog 4 with a MIDI keyboard no? I'd have a problem with my big fingers and those small buttons... And your setting on the Big Sky is "Chorale Machine"?

I'd love a Big Sky! I think I'm going to get the Earthquaker Devices Afterneath though! I love the sound of that thing.
@umonox
@umonox 6 лет назад
yeah, i remember some examples from back then. this was an amazing pedal. but what bugged me was that its only mono in, mono out. and a reverb certainly needs a least a stereo out! :-)

Sehr athmosphärisch ! Ich liebäugle ebenfalls mit dem BigSky, ist der BigBlue vlt. schon hinreichend für genau diesen Einsatz? Und, wie verhält sich der BigSky als Aux Insert Effekt? Würde gern mehrere Synth darüber einspeisen (Waldorf Pulse 2, Novation Circuit, Toraiz As-1). Danke für ein Feedback!
@knopfler2006
@knopfler2006 6 лет назад
I find it really excellent, congrats! Quick question about the Minibrute 2s: you can't save the settings of this amazing dark Pad-Sound, am i right ? If you want to get it back later, you have to, for example, take a picture of the front panel, then readjust the knobs later in the good position ?
@umonox
@umonox 6 лет назад
Exactly. But this amazing dark Pad-Sound is fully relying on the settings of the BigSky (which can be saved). So its really not a big deal. And also: If you dont patch anything (or a lot) the settings can be found quite fast again, since the Minibrute 2s is pretty easy all in all and not very complex. This doesnt change before you start patching. From then on it gets more and more complex and you have to write things down, yeah.

@umonox
@umonox 5 лет назад
Its worth every cent mate. You can throw everything into it and it makes something new out of it :-) Expensive, but it will pay out because you find yourself using it on almost anything in the end. Cheers

Der BlueSky hat die Chorale Machine nicht. Exakt diesen Effekt bekommst du damit also nicht hin. Als Send-Effekt verhält er sich wie jeder andere Effekt auch ;-) Du hast deinen Send/Return Channel auf dem Mixer, da klemmst du ihn an und das wars. Dann kannst du auf deinen Tracks nen Aux-Send machen und hörst den Effekt. Da der BigSky Stereo ist, musst du halt zwei Send/Return Channel nutzen. Oder du hast nen Mixer, der nen Stereo Send/Return hat, dann kannst du von nem normalen Stereo Track mit einem Aux-Send in Stereo senden. Wie rum auch immer: Der BigSky sollte als Send-Effekt komplett Wet sein, also: Dry/Wet komplett rechts. Das sollte aber klar sein, denk ich ;-)
