This was made with seven delay modules, connected in series in a monaural arrangement, with a two-input mixer on six of the delays and a three-input mixer on the first to take the input signal. The input was an oscillator with wave folder, gated through an enveloped VCA, with a new pitch CV on each ping.

The delays were patched in the following order.

• Zlosynth Instruments Kaseta
• Holocene Electronics Non-Linear Memory Machine
• Blue Lantern Modules Dwarf Star Stereo Delay FX MK2
• Make Noise Mimeophon
• Error Instruments White Rabbit
• Alright Devices Chronoblob2
• Noise Engineering Imitor Versio

The output of each delay goes through a Happy Nerding 3x MIA mixer channel into the next. Now here’s the key. The second mixer input comes from the output of the following delay, so that the following delay can be in the feedback loop of the previous delay. All the delay outputs are mixed in dsp.coffee TxN.

The delay settings were all about 50% wet and 50% internal feedback. Five of the delays had the delay time parameter modulated by an output of Make Noise Multimod, which was processing the ADDAC507 Random Bezier Waves.

The recordings are of little “performances”, since they were made by adjusting the seven mixers during the recordings. So this is not automatic music.
