Shallow

This is the first patch and improvisation using the 16n Faderbank and Ensemble Oscillator from 4ms alongside the other regular players in my current setup.

Improvised elements: The 4ms Ensemble Oscillator is playing back custom intervals and being filtered by QPAS. 4 channels of the 16n are being used here to improvide the chords being played as well as the timbre. One channel is modulating the route parameter of the EnsOsc raising and lowering the route pitch. A second channel is patched to the filter frequency of the QPAS and as a result is being used to fade the 4ms EnsOsc in and out during the performance. Another 2 channels are modulating the Twist and Warp input on the EnsOsc and thus modulating the timbre of the oscillators.

Sequenced/Prearranged elements: Marbles here is sequencing Rings which is being processed by uClouds in looping delay mode. Hermod is sending a simple sequence over to plaits which is being processed by magneto in its looping delay + pitch shifting mode. Hermod is also sequencing (via midi) the super disting ex in its multisample mode, which is being sent directly to a stereo mixer channel for added EQ and Reverb. Morpagene is playing back some acoustic guitar lines that have been sampled, spliced and are being mangled through modulation of the Morph, Gene and Slide parameters.

As well as being used to modulate EnsOsc and QPAS the 16n is also being used to modulate Rings Brightness, VCA's controlling levels of Morphagene output channels and VCA's controlling levels of DistingEX output channels and as a result is being manipulated to bring elements in and out throughout the performance.

All audio signals were mixed in a basic sense using a Mackie1202 mixer and reverb was added courtesy of the Strymon Big Sky. The track was recorded live to logic using a Focusrite 2i2 and then subject to some gentle for EQ and Mastering before exporting.
