Since I’ve been back in Rennes, I’ve been more and more fascinated with noise.
The idea to find corners where awkward stuff happen, and using this to my advantage, is now as much fun as trying to get some very smooth sounds. Often funnier, even.
An example:
Digitone operators offsets can go to -1
Default value is 1
⇒ what happens when you I close to 0? How does the sound react to different octaves? What about getting an envelope on the pitch? How different harmonics react to such configuration?
Dear noise explorers, please drop your discoveries / tricks / knowledge, and post some sounds!
Love the noise exploration idea! There’s also a sort ofnhidden wavefolder (and other offset tricks) described in this old thread:
I was recently discovering weird new-to-me corners of the Syntakt machines (toy, carbon). And everything Elektron taking 2k-speed random LFO modulation … theres just so many strange corners!
Also, the comb filters get very strange at the lower frequencies and with modulation… Reverb pre-delay on Syntakt modulated at audio rates…
My years with Elektron and a semi-modular setup have been chock full of “what would it sound like if I …?”
