Trance Gates

Playing with the idea of Trance Gating with a couple of VCA Channels and some snappy and not so snappy envelopes triggered differently for Left and Right channels which ends up being a bit ping-pong delay.
Pitches come from Marbles then the Saw wave from the Befaco EvenVCO, filtered by the Omsonic FLF into Monsoon Clouds to create a wash of sound with all the reverb, out into Veils VCAs with a couple of ALM PipSlope's being triggered from patterns in the Robaux LL8, then the stereo goes into the 2hp verb to add some wash onto the enveloped sound from the VCAs. Bit of a Tuned and filtered Bass drone from the Makenoise STO and Happy Nerding HNVCF.
Recorded in one take, if there are pops, crackles or glitches its because of my crappy soundcard! Thanks for listening :)

Hi Wishbonebrewery,

Oh lovely track! He, he, and a very green picture ;-) Do I recognise at the top part roughly in the middle a large mouth of a dangerous fish?

This is only 6 minutes but you could make it 16 or 26 minutes and it still wouldn't bore me. Nice to listen at, enough variation to keep it going and yeah... I really like it :-)

Thanks a lot for sharing this with us and kind regards, Garfield.

Hahaha, no fish in their, mainly insects, larvae, pond snails.... we are waiting for Frogs and Toads to find our pond.

I've improved on the gate envelops now, I can now play them via the joystick across the stereo fields/envelope-lengths.

Cheers :)

OK, I bought the OBS Camera app and installed OBS..... Live tweaking!

Hi Wishbonebrewery,

Oh yes! A bonus track, an extended version! You made my day :-) Nice video by the way, good quality and it's nice to see you at work. Nice to watch you handling the Planar joystick module. What's that module under the Planar? Looks interesting, are you enabling and disabling percussion voices with that?

I hope to see more videos/jams from you in this style :-) Thank you very much for investing in a camera and kind regards, Garfield.

Cheers :)
The joystick is the https://www.modulargrid.net/e/transient-modules-7j
Underneath that are the DNI pro Dot and the Roaux LL8 and ep that is mostl for the percussion, though I have the Roland TR-09 playing too which is behind the rack along with a mixer.

Hi Wishbonebrewery,

Whoops and I thought that joystick was the Planar from Intellijel, this is indeed a nice alternative!

Thanks for the details and kind regards, Garfield.

Really superb piece, makes me want to dance. All the elements really fit together nicely

Thanks a lot :)

Is it just me or do I hear pops/clicks/clipping in the audio of the second video? I am very curious about this since a bought the iRig Duo Pro a couple of weeks ago, and no matter what I try I get random annoying little pops and clicks in the audio. Tried all kinds of level settings everywhere in the audio chain, and different video setting on the iPhone, and even tried recording in Airplane mode - but nothing worked. I will be sending it back. I tried recording audio and video separately last night using the iPhone for video and a Zoom recorder for the audio and syncing them together in Studio One 5. It was quite easy to do, so while it is a little more work, I think it's a better, cheaper way to go for me.

It was mainly my computer's in-built sound card, things are now better with the Roland Rubix 22 I grabbed off ebay.
