Or purchase either album here: https://waysinwaves.bandcamp.com/albu... https://mallorychipmanandthemystics.b... I've had the NerdSeq for over a year now and I absolutely love it! A band I'm in - Mallory Chipman & The Mystics, always does a "modular freakout" in our live shows, where I bring a new patch every show and we jam out to it. This usually features our drummer pretty heavily, but everyone joins in! This piece is a combination of sequences that were originally used in a live show for the Mystics, as well as two sequences that I came up with in a modular jam with my friend Murray Cameron Smith. I'm really happy with how it turned out! If you're curious to hear the very trippy modular freakout on the album, listen to track 7 "You Can't Edit An Asteroid" which flows very nicely into the final tune on the album. Patch notes: NerdSeq into Doepfer Quad VCO into Quad VCA into X-Pan into Blades is the primary sound! Just got my hands on the x-pan and it is DELIGHTFUL. In the past, I've used post-processing to give patches some more exciting stereo image, but this negates the need for that! Akemie's Castle remains a necessary tool for me, it's sharp contrast to the analogue oscialltors of the Doepfer Quad VCO is hugely useful to distinguish voices in my compositions/patches. I've begun to ustilize NerdSeq's internal LFOs and modulation sources a bit more. Here is can be heard as vibrato on Akemie's castle. Intellijel's Noise Tools is modulating Operator 3's waveform. Rene MK2 is being used for subtle modulation, particularly for Atom (uElements) which is the percussive, hihat adjascent sound. You can see me changing up the pattern that Atom plays in real time with the C channel's Gates being changed with random finger swipes. Plonk is playing the role of a guitar here, I get jealous of people with multiple of these things, it does so many jobs so well! I tried to use is as a bit of a counter-melody in the chorus of this piece. Thanks for watching! Brian Raine
