Jamming with analog gear...

DSI Prophet 08 & Tempest
Moog Little Phatty
Doepfer Dark Energy (sequenced w/ iPad)
And also M-Tron Pro Chamberlin, MPC500.

More iPad Experimentation

Another quick experiment in integrating the iPad to the workflow.
The drums come from my newly acquired Abbey Road 80's Drummer.
Doepfer Dark Energy and Moog synth lines sequenced by Little MIDI Machine on the iPad.

Monotribe + Doepfer + Moog

Nothing too serious, toying around with the Doepfer Dark Energy controlling the Monotribe's tempo, and some Moog bass and drone.

These are the Times

Pure improvisation : the monophonic synthesizer Doepfer Dark Energy is plugged into a Boss RC20 loop station, which is plugged into a Lexicon reverb unit.

One single live take.

On the Go

I'll be gone on vacation for a couple of weeks, so in the meantime, I'll set up a selection of useful posts I did last years, including reviews, patch collections and some nice releases.

In the next days, I'll also post some Doepfer Dark Energy patch sheets, and a filter test for the Monotron.

As for today, I'll resume my doodling on the future "PEG" film project, trying to program some interesting, evolving sounds on the Prophet 08, that I might post as well later on.

A la THX

This is a mood study for film project "PEG" mentioned yesterday. It's a sketch in the style of THX 1138, to get a better idea of what could be done.

This particular experiment is somewhat too generic. I have to figure out for the real soundtrack what more exotic elements to add, while still retaining that ambient, atmospheric feel.

I used the Korg Wavestation, which is my main instrument for anything cold and mysterious, and the Doepfer Dark Energy for all bleeps, alarms, etc...

PEG Test 1

Doepfer Dark Energy Patch Sheets

Looking for tips on my new Dark Energy module, I just found out this very useful sheet generator.

When you've programmed a good sound, go to that site, reproduce the setting on the screen and voilà, you've got a nice patch sheet to print.

We Are From Your Future (Doepfer Dark Energy)

Another Dark Energy experiment...

Nixinger (Doepfer Dark Energy)

Because you can never have too much analog power, I just purchased a second-hand Doepfer Dark Energy module.

First experiment... all Doepfer multi-tracking.

Great little German machine, full of fun noisy possibilities.
