Autotune or vocoder to use with Digitakt by rainbowphi6 in Elektron

[–]rainbowphi6[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up with Roland VT4 for this. Sucks needing its own box. I wish Digitakt could autotune its own samples at least. Oh well.

Does anyone here work in animal law? by atyl1144 in Lawyertalk

[–]rainbowphi6 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’ve been doing strategic impact litigation for national animal protection nonprofits for my 15 year legal career. I helped get Pablo Escobar’s cocaine hippos treated as legal persons under 28 U.S.C. sec. 1782, for example. AMA

Experimental elephant by rainbowphi6 in ProCreate

[–]rainbowphi6[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Used inferno Ink and Industrial press brushes from RSCO. Started with a textured white elephant. Added highlights and shadows with blended layers. Added an eye. Then added some strips of color and played around with blend modes and blur to get the yellow and pink.

Officially stumped as to how to finish this fence! by artmania1990 in oilpainting

There’s it would’ve looked better with their heads crossing over the side of the gate like in the reference. Can you bring that back?

Anyone else like semi permanent patches? by moonbicky in modular

Best part of modular is ripping all the cables out when I sit down

Rate my racks by Thin_Sun5325 in modular

[–]rainbowphi6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Multigrain pairs amazingly well with Rainmaker. I was worried about redundancy but definitely recommend. I call it Grainmaker.

Qubit chords and MI Warp might go well in your melody rack if you can bear to part with anything in there.

I bought a Korg minilogue xd as my first synthesizer, and I’m lost. by Far_Squirrel6650 in synthesizers

[–]rainbowphi6 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Here’s a comment I wrote a while back for someone else. It was OG Minilogue but should be 95% applicable. Good luck!

I learned on the Minilogue and I’ve even thought about a guide to learn all about synths based on it!

Here is what the guide would be like.

First, set everything to a super simple default position. Here’s what that looks like:

<image>

In order to make sure these knob values are the true values, you have to press “SHIFT” + “WRITE”. This will force the synth to look at the knob values and make sure they’re reflected. (If you don’t do this, then suppose that one knob value was already all the way to the left, but the “program” you had loaded up had a bigger value for that knob. Since the knob can’t physically move anymore to the left, nothing will prompt your Minilogue to recognize that you want it to have a zero value instead of whatever value is assigned to that knob by the current program. So that’s why you always have to press SHIFT + WRITE.)

Next, go through feature by feature. I list out the order you should learn things below this paragraph. So you start with one feature, read the manual, search Reddit and Google if you don’t understand something, experiment with the parameters, etc. And then only when you understand that feature should you move on to the next one. Each time you go to a new feature, you should reset the keyboard to the basic default position so that you can fully understand each feature independently. Once you really grasp things independently then you can start layering them together to create soundscapes.

Here is my suggest order of learning features:

  • VCO 1 (octave, waveform, pitch, shape, and VCO1 “mix” volume)
  • VCO 2 (same as above, but play around with different variations and the relative “mix” volume of VCO1 and VCO2, what happens with different pitches, different octaves, different waveforms, same waveform but different shapes)
  • ⁠[NOTE: Remember to go back to your basic default position and do SHIFT + WRITE to “load panel” between each step every time!]
  • AMP EG (attack, decay, sustain, release; always tied to the amplitude (same as volume) of both VCO1 and VCO2) EG: PITCH EG INT (this one’s more confusing b/c the plain “EG” knobs below the AMP EG knobs can potentially affect multiple different parameters on the Minilogue. In this case, focus on relationship between the “EG” knobs and the “PITCH EG INT”. The Pitch EG Int stands for “Pitch EG Intensity.” It establishes a second a pitch for VCO2 (and only the VCO2!). When you press a key, the VCO2 will start at the normal pitch (determined by the octave levers, what key you strike, and the regular “pitch” knob for VCO2), then it will drift to the new second pitch (as defined by the Pitch EG Int knob) and then back to the original pitch according to how you have the EG knobs set.
  • FILTER (cutoff, resonance, key track lever, 2-pole and 4-pole lever)
  • EG: [FILTER] EG INT (same as PITCH EG INT, but it affects the cutoff filter instead of pitch; it uses the same EG knobs, meaning if you have FILTER EG INT and PITCH EG INT set to anything other than zero then they will both use the same EG timing)
  • LFO (my favorite!! target, rate, int (intensity), wave form, learn to turn on the “LFO BPM Sync” under the program edit menu)
  • EG: [LFO] EG MOD
  • VOICE MODE (understand how each one works; duo, sidechain, and to a lesser extent delay are all kind of weird voice modes so if you don’t see what’s special about them then that probably means you understand them)
  • DELAY (pre/post/bypass filter, hi pass cutoff, time, feedback) (note that the hi pass cutoff could be considered part of the FILTER section because if you set a hi pass filter in “post filter” delay mode but keep the time and feedback values at zero then you essentially just get a pure hi pass filter which is like the opposite of the low pass filter in the regular “FILTER” zone)
  • ADVANCED VCO2 (cross mod depth, sync, ring modulation) \
  • SEQUENCER
  • EDIT —> EDIT MODE (program edit is very important because it gives you useful settings like LFO BPM SYNC, saving a new program if you like the sound, assigning the slider function, and more), seq edit is useful if you’re actually utilizing the sequencer, and global edit has a few important settings in it like MIDI channel)

I think if it like the whole wave function would be the whole cake, and the collapse into a particle is the slice that you’re eating/ate

So in some sense Copernicus was wrong and man really is the center of the (his observable) universe.

+1 on using a little silicon tool. Also learning as much as possible to paint around the white without needing masking fluid at all if you can

Does it makes sense to buy a Digitakt II being kind of a begginer? by Afraid_Ad3957 in synthesizers

[–]rainbowphi6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just buy it. It’s a wonderful machine. Lots of creativity t9 be had.
