rd(prog)

Here I am furthering the concept of ring modulation in conjunction with the Karplus strong synthesis method. It's a non-interactive patch, so everything you hear is being randomly generated. The supercollider code changes the length of the delay buffers at steady regular intervals and amounts to create a rudimentary "progression" of notes, though they aren't perfect and are definitely microtonal, if you have the ear for that. The progression is happening rather slowly though, so you may have to speed up the file to hear it better. Luckily, I did that for you!

Enjoy! :)

Still Here

Surprise! Not dead!

Here we have a slightly modified version of the classic Karplus-Strong string synthesis, one of my favorite non-basic synthesis methods because of it's simplicity and flexibility. I incorporate a ring modulator into the initial impacts, and allow the impacts themselves to become more sustained and pronounced. I used no interpolation in any of the UGens, which caused many high up harmonics, which were later filtered out. There are four "strings" ringing, proportional to 200/300/400/600. A low pass filter was utilized. This was created entirely in Supercollider, with myself controlling ring modulation frequency and impacts (using a midi keyboard), but then the resulting file was edited in audacity, dropping the overall speed around 50 percent, so that the higher up harmonics would make themselves more known, and also filtering out the excessively high harmonics in order to make room for the lower drones.

Anyways, that's about all, sorry I haven't posted for a while, been very busy, but don't think I have forgotten about you! :D

BOTB

Hey, just checking up and saying I am still here. Recently I joined a neat site called "Battle Of The Bits", it's pretty neat! Check out my account here.

And to see my latest submission, an experimental lofi drone piece using only the amen break and a sine wave sample (using supercollider), click here!

Enjoy! :D

a special, nearly half hour long feedback loop project. no input, lots of effects. check it out!

i am really enjoying these, i am actually considering making an album of them :D

more on that later, maybe :3
