SSLS #4: FX track

[Nils]

@Joshgrn

Nice idea to try with a vocal sample then record that sample and put it back in the twinshotachine if thats what your getting at?

Yeah, or anything else really. Vocoders can be used for a lot of stuff. In a typical vocoder example, vocals are only used for analysis, with the resulting spectrum then forced upon another sound, for example a synth chord. Thus making the synth chord “talk”. So what you’re hearing is actually the synth chord, shaped by the vocal spectrum.

So what you could try is just a synth chord (preferably with a rich harmonic spectra), and nitty-gritty program the volume envelopes on the eight different tracks.

Btw I managed to get that whip crack on the old firmware version i can post it but not sure where, is there really an odd ball thread, sounds like id fit right in!

Oh, cool If you used a specific machine to achieve it, you can post it in the science lab thread for that machine. If you used several machines, you can use the Oddballs thread:

SSLS #2: Syntakt oddballs (sound design)

Hey fellow Syntaktians, here’s a new Syntakt Science Lab Special. The focus of this thread is to highlight creative, unconventional and less obvious ways of doing sound design on the Syntakt. This topic came from a discussion in SSL #8 where @sbkboi posted a nice attempt on comb filtering. I realize this is a very open-ended topic without a clear common denominator, and I’m not sure which direction this will take. But I’d like for it to be a source of sound design tips not related to particula…

He hit a co2 bulb 10mters away from the house and it went through the window and straight into the syntakt power switch obliterating it direct hit no other damage!

Sounds like you’ve maxed your bad luck
I’ve had little time to play around lately, but I’ll try to remember to test it the next time I’m on my ST.
