Would there be interest in some MD science lab?

Good afternoon all . . .
Structurally, I think a non UW project, as mentioned, is likely to attract more attention due to its relevance to all Machinedrum owners; I myself am not a UW owner either.

Timewise, I’m up for a monthly project. I’m lucky enough to have quite a bit of spare time and relish the challenge of stretching my knowledge, skills and Machinedrum further. However, I appreciate that others have more pressing commitments, so the time frame may need more consideration.

As for the challenges: I think launch the first one, evaluate the level of participation and make any necessary changes for the following rounds?

Hi yes i vote for a Science Lab non UW open to all the MachineDrumNauts and for a SL monthly. i suggest just run one at the time not two in parallel. and for the character of the SL more than a competition i see this more as his name states a Laboratory for MD. we are not talking about a simple living device……

MD science lab suggestion 1: two minute track, using just GND-Sin machines as sound source, 1 kit/1 pattern (2 for mki users), CTR machines allowed, all in the box (no external processing), can be a song or live jam

any other limitations/criteria needed?

cyanescens if you’re happy to helm this i think that there should be soundcloud playlists hosted to keep relevant lab submissions together for listening/voting on winner etc.

i didnt mean to make a competition out of this…
there is no competition in this science labs,and no real winner…if one wins,we all win :wink:
its science and not a pissing contest…its not to find a winner,its to find the dude who will make the next lab rules…:slight_smile:
so the monthly lab suggestion is good with most ppl…lets try this first and reshape(this and all the rest) if needed as @apmbpm suggested…
@waftlord im all down with this lab suggestion,
so soundcloud it is…good idea!
any other limitation ideas, or should we start off as @waftlord suggested?

So are we off and running on this then?

Do we have to synchronize watches or countdown from 100 and then charge off towards the challenge?

Okay- I’m seeing this post and I want to see something start rolling with the users of my favorite drum machine.

Here’s a challenge I heard about a while ago. Make a track only using two steps of a single pattern. Below is a demonstration(I forget the user who shared this with me)

yes now we have something to craft th SL and synchronize @apmbpm, @MDMnM bro lets play, if you have more suggestions or restrictions. just my opinion but I’m ready and agree with everybody.

i just have some questions to the group here or @waftlord or @cyanescens

  1. using just GND-SN machine? or all the GND group (GND SN, GND NS, GND IM)
  2. all in the box? use of FX Master allowed (RE, REV, EQ, DYN)
  3. how many tracks can we upload via sound cloud?

i think once we have this ok and we agree with the points or rules lets make a big invitation to al the MD elektronauts. maybe creating another SL thread to start.

  1. I like the scientific challenge of using just 1 GND

  2. Of course

  3. Just your best one?

#41
  1. just one of the group its ok
#42

Yeah would create a interesting palette of experiments.

I’m sticking with the sine wave crew. But will end up making something with noise and impulses now

#43

since its your rules,you are the Man…
post a new SL MD thread,and let the ball roll :wink:

Thought there would be more participants by now…
I still try-hope that somehow i canmake my experiment bit better.maybe everyone is like me :slight_smile:
Till now its @StinkyBeat and @waftlord who uploaded their work… Btw… @waftlord made tracks to all 3GND machines!!
Happy tweaking Nauts!
approx.2weeks left from the lab…

#47

should we continue with the Lab as is,should we vote and make new rules for the new lab and get on with it,or should we change Anything?
There were approx 15 people who sad were down with it,but only 3showed something…
Was wondering how could we convince people ( https://youtu.be/SKdyDw8oKo0 :slight_smile: ) to join…

Lets make a new one and hope more people will show up?
