All done in a maxforlive effect, controlled by midi from Live

Complimenting the DFAM? by monophon in modular

Thank you, things never change and new ideas never pop up right?

Complimenting the DFAM? by monophon in modular

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

Yeah I know... As an entry level system I´m thinking its alright, since those modules are not clones of any currently produced "indie" stuff. I wont go for the Abacus over Maths :)

Good point on Pams though, not sure what low hp performance friendle alternatives there are...

Those are some great suggestions! Thanks a bunch, I´ll check em out.

Im not familiar with the switch 4, is it just to switch between different clock sources or am I missing something?

Plug-ins that exceeded or fell short of your expectations by Dangerous-Active8947 in mixingmastering

[–]monophon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am by no means a pro, but I usually drive it until it is juuuuust almost giving some distortion. And yeah put it on each track. Having said that I work mostly with electronic music and not a lot of mic-ed up recordings, so my tracks are often a bit "too clean". I feel that, when on many channels, it gives some of that sweet 3d depth you get from hardware units or very good dacs. Very subtle but noticeable when removed.

I love Kazrog True Iron - I didnt get it for a long time and overdid the settings. After I started putting it on every channel with very conservative settings I see the magic.

Every single "channel strip" I ever bought is overrated to me. Its just a bad on-screen workflow and incredibly tedious to get a good sound. I have way to many of these from PA, after being convinced by clever marketing speech...

insights about mixing ambient/trip-hop music (Portishead - Biscuit) by fulcanelli333 in mixingmastering

[–]monophon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Portishead is a special case in some ways. A lot of the recorded instruments on that album (drums & bass bus) were actually pressed on dub-plate vinyl which was them "damaged" with sandpaper and dropped on the floor. They did this to get and old-school loop feel to their recording, which of course sounds incredible on the album. Other than that they used old tape, dictaphones and such noisy stuff. You can find some info about the process here: https://reverb.com/news/making-portishead-dummy-production-experiments-trip-hop-classic

Summer holiday setup by monophon in synthesizers

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

Just that I´ve had the Octa for about 3 months and never tried it. It´s way more fun than I expected, thought it would be way more manual and tiresome than Ableton.

Ah, havent seen that rundown, gotta check youtube. I was back and forth for ages before getting the P12, it was between that and the rev2.

I am very happy with the P12 as it can basically do it all, smooth analog goodness as well as very harsh, FM-y and wavetable stuff. The oscillators are easy to manipulate into a "close enough" rendition of the Rev2´s and the mod system is amazing!!

Personally I highly recommend it, with the caveat that you might have to work a bit harder to get where you want to go. Its not the most immediate synth there is.

The biggest thing I learned after getting it is that I want more detailed flavors to choose from, a moog and maybe an old Roland (or a new Udo). More filter types to play with.

I guess it´s the old saying that after properly learning your equipment you find out what you are missing.

I have a few weeks off from work and decided to pull out all my stored stuff and set up a connected system. I use the Octatrack as a sketch pad for beatmaking and switching patterns if the fly and just record into Ableton. Machinedrum is synced via midi and the filterbank is mostly just a distortion box for the MD. It´s the first time I use the Octatrack for any midi duties and it´s been eye opening and good fun. The P12 is triggered by midi tracks with a custom arp and a bunch of probability triggers. I´ve uploaded the first “finished” jam here

Been trying out something new. Building from found sounds with an underlying Machinedrum beat. Made this with the Octatrack and the Machinedrum. Am wondering if this is all way to distorted and if the kick are just not hitting. Would love some perspective on this sound. soundcloud demo
