While trying to open an old project file I ran into an issue. Since Monark is an Ensemble provided by Native Instruments as part of Komplete I was surprised. I was even more surprised to find the file in the exact path given by the error message. Trying to select the file revealed what the real problem is: “This file […]
A year and a half ago I released a commercial preset library for Native Instruments Razor through ADSR Sounds. The collection had some sales through them but now has run it’s course and is not longer part of their catalog. I am now happy to release the library for free. Feel free to use it in any way you like […]
Recently I have been experimenting with clock dividers and logic modules. It’s an area that often gets overlooked by newcomers to modular synthesis. Discussions of logic modules will usually only explain them from a technical viewpoint, but avoid the practical musical applications of them. For a good introductory experience, I would recommend experimenting with Reaktor Blocks. The Blocks Framework includes […]
Anyone who has read my blog knows how much I love both Supercollider and Renoise but the two have always occupied two different areas of my workflow. I have decided it was finally time to start combining the strengths of the two. Supercollider is amazing for sound design and renoise is a very good sequencer. NOTE: Despite the Renoise focus […]
In a previous post I introduced my interface to translate the Open Music Labs rePatcher hardware’s serial data into OSC messages. I have also written a macro for Reaktor that allows you to access the knobs and patchbay. The macro can be download from the Reaktor User Library. The macro has 6 In and Out ports that correspond to the […]
Yesterday I posted about my rePatcher to OSC interface written in Processing. I’ve been finding it very useful but I was annoyed by the fact that I had to open processing IDE and run the code every time. I wanted it to behave a bit more like a traditional program. I tried to export the program as an app but […]
As soon as I saw the announcement of rePatcher I was interested. It seemed like a very affordable way to add some physical control over your code. I am personally not a big fan of PD or Max so I decided to interface it to Supercollider and Reaktor instead. I quickly realized that the windows implementation of the Serial class […]
Today I have released my new album entitled “I Meant To Break Your Will, Never Your Heart”. This album was originally finished in October of 2013 and was scheduled to be my first physical release. Due to various issues the album has sat dormant during that time. With the release for physical product still several months off I have decided […]
