Boss RC-1<\/p><\/div>\n

After having tried mixing multiple recordings to build up a dense sound, I realized this could be done by a loop recorder.\u00a0 Here’s one experiment that makes use of two kinds of loop.\u00a0 To start out, a semi-random pitch CV is generated by Pithoprakta, clocked by Mordax Data at a constant 120 BPS.\u00a0 The sequence is frozen periodically, creating a momentarily repeating sequence.\u00a0 Then another is generated.\u00a0 The timbre is made by Through-Zero Frequency Modulation in the EN129 VCO, modulated by a sine wave from the Cali Oscillator.\u00a0 Both oscillators receive the same pitch voltage, so they track.\u00a0 The pitch CV is quantized to a pentatonic major scale.\u00a0 A bit of reverb is added.\u00a0 Then the loop station starts layering sound on sound.<\/p>\n

The result is reminiscent of Steve Reich.\u00a0 If it seems repetitious, then you’re paying too much attention to the regular beat and the invariant scale pitches.\u00a0 Instead, pay attention to the internal parts which are constantly changing and finding accidental affinities.\u00a0 It’s the subtle changes that are interesting.<\/p>\nhttps:\/\/pugix.com\/synth\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Looping-TZFM-Experiment.mp3<\/a><\/audio>\n
