someone who's doing some things
I like to think I do an occasional creative thing. This is what’s in this tag.
After a little while of playing with the Ototo and enjoying what it can do I now want to attach it to some gear to play with it via MIDI. So my next experiments will be using Ototo to drive apps and other devices over MIDI and we’ll see where that takes me.
We’ve got our new SoundLab site up and running. It’s already got some great resources available there and we’ll be adding more very soon. Please do check it out.
Another track from my long awaited collection. I need to make some progress with this lot soon.
Software that I have enjoyed for quite a few years now in various guises and on various platforms. The latest version of the interface is big step forward, and the app, well, as far as making music goes it is amazing, there’s nothing more that can be said about it really.
The other day I was messing around with my Thingamagoop and 2 monotrons, and of course recorded the output. I then tried working with it as sample data in Jasuto Pro, which I think worked quite well.
What I might do is put together all of the different treatments of this recording in a single soundcloud set at some point this week(-ish).
When looking back at the Capers applets I found details of this project I wrote about at Palm Sounds in 2006, and it made me wonder if I should give it another go, and that means I probably will.
I’m not sure if I’ll use the same PDA, the clie T425. I might use something different. We’ll see.
I only went back to this app as I’d seen a photo of the screen on instagram! Ok, not a great reason to return to an app, but nevertheless I did, and I’m glad I did too. Very nice for making ambient things and passing the time on the train.
I remember when bleep!BOX first came out. It was completely amazing. 4 mono synths, and 6 drum synths all in your iPhone. Wow!
So I decided to go back to it yesterday and see if I could make something and actually finish it this time, and apart from being quite surprised that I could still remember my way around on the whole I got something started which I’m really quite pleased with. It isn’t finished as yet, maybe I’ll wrap it up next week, but so far I think it’s pretty good.
And even though this app’s been around in iOS world for quite some time I still think it is pretty amazing and full of possibilities.
