The bugbrand is a very small and simple synthesizer and sound generator that involves 3 oscillators, 1 mixer, 1 comparator, saturation and tone controllers, mini amplifier, 13 points of corporal contact, and jack output, current reduction control (to avoid unexpected behaviors from the circuit). It is a very effective noise generator with the knobs able…

Grids is a topographic drum sequencer, utilizing chaos and formal grammar algorithms (maybe). The user can select a drum pattern topographically using the X and Y controls. The density of these pre-made patterns can then be controlled using the respective knobs. Finally, a Chaos control adds subtle randomness to the patterns. Grids is unique in…

I found a song called starlight by dave (https://youtu.be/iVWsP3IadBk) and at 13 seconds there’s a humming vocal or instrument in the background which is humming the melody of fly me to the moon by Frank Sinatra (https://youtu.be/ZEcqHA7dbwM). I’m not entirely sure about what type of sampling they use as they never use any audio from…

I chose this track because of the easily identified sample, the infamous Amen break from the song Amen Brother, by The Winstons (1969). In terms of digital sampling, the sample has been sped up significantly to match the BPM of the Noisia track. The individual drum beats have also been chopped and reorganized. Due to…

I was doing great at determining reverb and stereo width, but then frequencies. After some practice I was getting alright at it but the higher frequencies were boggling my ape brain. I thrive on low frequencies.

BASIC SONIC EAR TRAINING CONCEPTS: on the first test (stereo position-easy) I got each one I did correct. on the second stereo position test i also got each one correct, it was easy to notice a slight shit i did question to what extent but i managed to get it correct. I then moved on…

I used a chorus effect on a sine wave. The difference between the original and the affected wave was the both left and right went out of phase and you could see when the left went quieter the right went louder.

I chose to explore reverb. I added this effect to a snare drum sample because of its transient nature, allowing me to hear the effect in create detail. Reverb had the effect of making the snare sound as though it is coming from a distance. it also makes synthetic sounds (such as sine and square…

https://freesound.org/people/InspectorJ/sounds/395441/ a wobbly sine wave, compared to a regular sound wave this sound modulates its frequency clearly sonic visualiser analysis, drags the frequency, I dont know how to or if its possible to remove the source sound to leave just the effect, the frequencies are very spread out but remain in the higher range –…
