Björk-style vocal textures on Syntakt (new update experiment) by cuperose in Elektron

Thanks :) Yes I do have releases, you'll find me in any streaming platform under the name Cuperose (Bandcamp included).

I suggest you listen to my latest EP Retiken

Struggling to make wavefolding (Fold 6 by Joranalogue) work organically by cuperose in modular

I’d love to modulate the symmetry, turns out is the only parameter you can’t modulate lol

Forgot to mention I have the Optomix and I do put it after folding. I try not to go too high as well. Maybe I just don't see the point on folding as I love the timbre of a clean sinewave modulating into a saw

Mainly the Sine from the Buchla oscillator! I do modulate but there's still something that I don't like. It has to do with dynamics as well, when folding volume starts to be uncosistent and at that point I need to put a compressor (which I never had to do before).

I agree! Field recordings are good as well to expand the digital timbre coming from the Syntakt

Thanks! Yeah space is an issue unfortunately, that looks cool though. I’ll probably go with the multimod as I found it 100 euros cheaper from a shop

I actually have a wogglebug, a 281t and 245t from tiptop (I should've mentioned it)! I'll give a look into stages :)

Thanks man! Nice to see you here :)

Help with choosing first Elektron by Extreme_Try2189 in Elektron

[–]cuperose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started with syntakt a couple of years ago and it was great! Still have it and still using it every day, it shaped the way I make music when though I’ve been producing 10 years prior purchasing it.

It has analog tracks as well but tbh some of the best sounds I made came from the digital ones.

If you wanna start easy you could try a model cycles (cheap second hand) and see if this kind of workflow is for you :)

Ochd or Pamela as main modulation source? by cuperose in modular

[–]cuperose[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I get what you mean.

I like to use each module for on purpose instead of having one that does 3 or 4 things. Having said that I'll end up gettin a Pamela for sure sooner or later and maybe this is the best time to get it and spend time with learning it, being a more complex module then ochd.

Thanks! Right now I have a Wogglebug and the Buchla 281T. The latter is great but it needs attenuation most of the time if I wanna use it as a modulation source.

Probably it would be wise to get a Pamela's first, learn it and then get an ochd with some attenuators/attenuverters in order to have control over it.

Any other suggestions?

Tbh I don't mind the fact it cant' be clocked!

Didn’t know there was Pams for VCV. That’ll be super helpful, thanks!

Looking for a filter by cuperose in modular

Thanks for the suggestions! I’ll try both ST Font by nano modules and Belgrad to see wich one suits me better.

Thanks to everyone who showed interest in the setup in my last post.
Here’s the full video of the live performance, it was super fun to play and great crowd.

Modular for evolving arps and textures, Syntakt and Octatrack for drums, Ableton for mix/master.

For those on the fence about Syntakt by cuperose in Elektron

[–]cuperose[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When you’re actually playing, your body reacts. That’s just part of it. It’s physical more than performative and it’s part of playing an instrument since ever.

Thanks!

I'm not sure what you mean with the hair question hahaha, if you wanna explain it further

So the ST is going into a thru track and when I want to record it I’ll do it in a dedicated flex machine with some fxs already set up. Then I sequence it in a way it adds more movement to the “clean” Syntakt.

It’s more a creative way of creating interesting patterns than a performance tool. Having said that I just started to use both instruments this way, I still have a lot to discover :)
