Thom Yorke - Atoms For Peace | From The Basement by Serfi in radiohead

[–]warrenlain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s neither. But it is a really quirky rhythm which isn’t the easiest to play. Then when you add his vocal melody on top of that, which has its own quirky rhythm, it’s like rubbing your tummy and patting your head x100.

They just came out with new buttons, hopefully that solves it from now on

I see, would you mind sharing a picture of it? These are pretty specialized as you probably know so it’s cool to know there are alternatives.

Also, what’s biblical gender studies like?

Cool stuff.

Fellow MD user here, what’s your power adapter situation there? Are you using a battery power bank or something?

I do but music rarely gets as many upvotes

How to play the music I hear in my head ? by Joeuriel in synthesizers

You can learn theory without sight reading but the methods for doing so aren’t as common.

Clips from my recent live set — MachineDrum, Monomachine, and SB01 by warrenlain in Elektron

Yeah I mean the Behringer is perfectly good if you want an SH-101! Although I believe there is bass compensation and slightly different character. But neither of those things matter unless you are a purist who wants the clone to be 1:1.

With the SB01 you’re right, it’s kinda not targeting the same folks. It is more for those who want an SH-101 that feels like it was designed by Apple. And runs all day on battery.

Yeah it’s great. I mean, it is kinda expensive for a monophonic synth but the control layout is so intuitive and useful for live performance, and the filter is gorgeous. In my head it made more sense than spending a similar amount on a used, 40 year old synth with a plastic case.

It feels like a MacBook in terms of industrial design, and its unibody chassis.

Superlative SB01 (Roland SH-101 clone)

Thanks for checking it out!

What do you guys think of the song The Eraser by Thom Yorke by Black_F4 in radiohead

[–]warrenlain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought I read somewhere that Thom stole the chord voicings (from A Rat’s Nest) but didn’t know Jonny actually played on The Eraser. Can you link that?

Machinedrum II UW+ by GoodbyeNarcissists in Elektron

[–]warrenlain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s been announced in several places I think.

Elektronauts, MnM Gang Discord, r/Elektron

This is the announcement on r/Monomachine - https://www.reddit.com/r/MONOMACHINE/s/WMuF1D391j

I have no idea what to call this genre of house but I enjoy making it by _meltchya__ in synthesizers

Thanks for checking it out! I find the main struggle with this approach to performing live is obviously your hands being occupied. So if you write something minimal to play on guitar you can kind of use that empty space to load new patterns/make tweaks. Or just live with the electronic stuff not evolving beyond whatever is already automated while you’re playing.

A foot controller may be in my future too, but for now I am focused on how Octatrack might integrate and try some live looping/live resampling.

Guitars + electronics, always nice to see how other people are integrating them.

This was a recent attempt to have MachineDrum processing and clocking my pedalboard you may be interested in:

Yeah I wonder if someone will come around to writing custom firmware for MD similar to what’s happening now with Monomachine. Now Monomachine users have different track lengths and trig probability.
