1.Session with Dennis de Bel
soldered together
lasercut frontpanel
- Intro into modular synthesis: (exists in both, analogue and digital form) Several modules, that are not hardwired totgether. Each module does (not allways) one task only - but does that very good. In-, outputs allow to interface several modules.
- Soldering / testing of the "Meergranen" module.
- Flashing different presets with onto the Arduino
- Designing and lasercutting the first custom frontpanel
Custom sample selection (to be continued):
2.Session with Olli Aarni at De Player
a modular synthesizer setup
- Listening sessions with the purpose of learning how to talk about sound
- Hunting interesting sounds and writing a description of them
- Inventing a new word to describe the sound: "knüsprichtlic" (engl.: "crunchdenseyficial")
- learning musical vocabulary (pitch, frequency, timbre, overtone, metrics,...)
- Exercise: sorting given abstract soundfiles into categories and naming them
Helpful/interesting links
- Vocabulary to describe sound
- more vocab for sound
- what is timbre?
- a arduino based effect pedal...
- ...and the git for the arduino based effect pedal
- Speech to Song Illusion
Watchlist
- I Dream of Wires - Documentary on the history of synthesizers by director Robert Fantinatto
- Youtube playlist with (sometimes random) helpful videos I collect
