Ambient/Post-Rock/Textural bass playing thread

i'm laughing but also sorry i brought it up. i guess i'm not above a cheap shot.

I guess metronomes serve 3 functions then:
1- keep time
2- fall on the floor
3- p!$$ off Mr Berlin



I think as a joke if I ever met him I'd ask him to autograph my metronome. (Troll level 49¥54¥₩4¥)

Still trying to amass a catalog of moody background music pieces. Also trying to learn my new Verbos oscillator

Do you have a midi controller or are keys on the machine necessary?

I'd like keys on the machine so when I decide to make music in a different room I don't have to set up extra stuff. East coast synth.

My kinda stuff. Nice

I meant that as a bad joke.
But on a "serious" level. I don't believe at all that "learning in your sleep" mumbo jumbo magic potion dream catcher unicorn type of thing.

My 2 cents

I'm aware. Just so happens there's some research backing your bad joke

You have a lot if choices. I have the Moog Grandmother and it is a really nice instrument. I see them used pretty frequently for good prices. It has a really nice sound and is patchable with any eurorack gear you might have. No presets though.

there's more in the video, but here you are ^

indications are that listening to a metronome while sleeping may aid in memory retention of complex motor skills (i.e. technique)

thanks! I’d like to get better at atmospheric stuff at some point

Can we go back to the earliest days of ambient?



Well, reimagined by cats & barnyard animals...

I think I still have that metronome somewhere hah!
Due to working from home with my wife and trying to look after kids I haven’t touched my bass in three weeks I think I’m going to be going into a meltdown soon...

thanks... my wife works as a midwife at a hospital and university lecturer so she is a touch paranoid with all this stuff about health workers getting covid...

Planning to get kids down to bed early at least one night though to keep myself sane... I think two parents mostly working from home with kids should Be illegal hah

Keystep Pro demos finally dropping

Oh my freakin' godless, this Wavestate is awesome. It's the first synth I've had where I can actually create the sounds I've been hearing in my head. I wanted something that could rival the complexity of the softsynths I use (mostly things in Kontakt). Now I have it.

So if you don't see me for a while, you know why. I'm filling that creative rut I've been bitchin' about with learning this thing inside and out. It's got quite the curve, but sound design seems to make more sense to me, overall, than plain ol' subtractive synthesis does (at least when it comes to making complex sounds, which I've never been good at). When I get a few more patches done, I'll put up a few sounds.

Sweet. I'm a little bit jealous... Looking forward to hearing more about it!
