SSLS #4: FX track

Elektronauts Science Lab
62

It’s more about starting the sequence rather than stopping it.
I need to ping delay somehow to start feedback loop. Sometimes it works when I just press Play, sometimes I have to disable Delay → FX routing first.

I’m not sure what’s going on here but it’s either delay oscillates by itself (what I expect) or even Impulse trigs don’t start delay oscillation. I guess it’s related to some interaction between filter and delay but I couldn’t trace and fix that.
The routing hack works and that’s enough for me.

Trying to get a more predictable rhythm going :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Three short recordings. The delay is feeding constantly in the background, the LFOs of the FX track is shaping it.

Syntakt FX Track into OT with a couple of downpitched copies and some reverb, lofi, comb filter and compression on the master track. Atmo for days!

This one I tried to me more reproductible. Karplus Strong is the key.

I started off with Karplus Strong & what ended up being an Aphex-style beat:

then on a whim stopped the sequencer and started trying to walk the line between the delay running out of control and feeding back “nicely” then played with the ping-pong on/off & the delay speed.

Watch your ears/volume with the last 20s of the first track!

I am a big fan of Blawan, his sound is super inspiring. Some of my tracks in «That Syntakt Sound» are quite inspired by him, but honestly feel like a faint shadows of his hyper sound.

It’s a great idea for a science lab btw!

Which era Blawan? Because he’s done quite a few things :slight_smile:

I definitely have made some Blawan-esque kicks with BD FM.

Good question :slight_smile: He definitely develops from release to release. Maybe the best approach is for everyone to pick their own Blawan track/album.

Your works in this lab are standing near releases from experimental hardcore places (like Praxis?) but 30 years ago. :smiling_imp:

Very interesting. Now I know what a robot’s asthma attack would sound like.

Now that’s a label I had no idea about, but I’ve got to thank you for introducing me!
