This is the latest piece from a group of microtracks that feature the Korg Monotribe synchronized in various ways with the Sequential Circuits Pro-One. In this case, to create the swing on the Pro-One, I ran it’s sync track through an eighth note triplet groove setting. In post I took the liberty of adding some delay during the outro and reverb in a couple of places.
For this experiment I recorded the Monotribe sync signal into Ableton Live, then I made two separate tracks of warped sync output – one to drive the Monotribe and one to drive the Pro-One. Not only does this give me the capability to set the tempo in Live, but I can also manipulate the sync signal independently for each device.
Notice the galloping shuffle on the Pro-One bass line? This was created by adding a delay to the sync signal that is going to the Pro-One. Using this technique I can instantly add groove, double-time, or triplet feel to either or both of the instruments. Who knew these instruments, 30 years apart, would pair so well together.
Here’s one more from a group of microtracks that feature the Korg Monotribe synchronized in various ways with the Sequential Circuits Pro-One.
This is the sixth piece from a collection of microtracks that I have produced using the Korg Monotribe synchronized with the Sequencial Circuits Pro-One. This one starts out with out drums and then double bass drum fills come in near the end.
This is the fifth microtrack from a series that I produced using the Korg Monotribe synchronized with the Sequencial Circuits Pro-One. This one was edited out of a longer session where I was taking a few liberties with knob turning on the Memory Man and on the Pro-One.
