#ambient jam

[amuletsmusic]

Spring is in the air and my studio is blooming with new sounds and equipment. One of which is the Teenage Engineering OP-1 which I have wanted for years! I finally took the plunge and don't regret it at all. I'm still learning a lot about the OP-1 and how I want to incorporate it into my setup, but I thought i'd share with you my first ambient jam. For this track, I used the built in tape recorder, and slowed it down a bunch (-14 to be exact). The first two track layers are custom samples I made from tape loops and the other two tracks are heavily modified built in synths.

New single. Just the keyboards again this time. I like the interactions with the delay effect, especially with some rack amp effect for warm tone. Lot of envelope amount tweaking rather than filter tweaking. DX11 is just the Sy. Perc 2 patch turned into a pad again, but I put a Leslie on it and did a lot of vibrato and pitch shifting. Kinda wish I had thought out a consistent melody/progression for the DX11's part, but eh.

There is no greater artistic message in this audio, take off your clothes

N-N-N-NEW TOILET EP

Read description. This thing was a blast to make, especially the last track. This is basically the closest to a demonstration of my studio's full potential, basically using all but 1 instrument. Apparently, the trick to making your synth sound super retro is just to detune and drift the fuck out of your oscillators, which both keyboards in the last track have in droves. I'm really liking the textures that are coming out of the DeepMind in general. It's based on the Juno-106, so it's an 80s synth at heart, but a 10s synth in body.

I still find myself gravitating to reapplying the limitations the Juno had, mainly syncing envelopes 1 and 2. I get GAS (Gear-Acquisition Syndrome) a lot, especially for dream polysynths like the Prophet 5 and OB-Xa, but this keyboard is probably all I could ever need out of a polysynth for a good long while. Maybe, one day, I can upgrade to a Rev. 2 or some shit, but for now, I need to appreciate what I could get my hands on.
