I accidentally created this pack of cyber wolves on the Super Jupiter. I was dialing in sounds while watching the oscilloscope and getting all sorts of crunchy delights when all of a sudden I was hearing these eerie howls. Fortunately I was recording all along, so afterward I edited it down to the best bits and uploaded it for your enjoyment.

Here’s another example that fits into the stacked polyphonic synthesis series I started on April 4, 2011 with Stacked Polysynths Part 1. This time I played a chord progression while recording rather than adjusting parameters in realtime, making it into a micro-track of sorts. The fifths sounds was on the D-50 while the filter sweeping sound is something I dialed in on the MKS-80.

One of the several software features available with the MOTU Audio Express is the oscilloscope. I shot this video of it visualizing a pulse wave being modulated and filtered on the MKS-80.
This 1:52 minute segment of improvisation from the DGK performance at Try This 2 on March 25, 2011 contains drums by Tim Glenn, Soprano Sax by Jon Davis, and jumble sale of gear played by yours truly. These instrument include, in order of appearance, the Sequential Circuits Pro-One, followed by the Korg Monotron, my handmade Sonodrome Posc, and my Max for Live, granular synth, Grain Machine. Prior to this performance I had been limiting my palette of textures to the Rhodes and the Pro-One, but for this performance I thought I would try including the Monotron, Posc, and Grain Machine in order to draw from a few more atonal colors.

Yet another example of stacked polyphonic synthesizers. The hollow square wave arpeggio, courtesy of the Super Jupiter, is augmented by a glassy pad provided by the Roland D-50 Linear Arithmetic synthesizer.
