I used a few Minilogue xd patches (Pizza Time, Adagio Strings, Brass Hero) to lay down the main parts over a basic metronome kick. I recorded the sequences in live into the Deluge and then edited them as needed. I started with the plucks, using…

Made a beat using the LINN 9000 kit on the Deluge, recorded alto recorder improvisation clip, played Pianet multisample along to that using Keystep 37, recorded audio of an arpeggiated patch from the Typhon into another clip while tweaking some…

I wanted to use some of my more experimental Minilogue xd patches (Sacred Calls, Jormungandr, and Vocal Oddity), so I dusted off an old beat I had made all the way back in 2020, in my first months with the Deluge, and fine-tuned it a bit. It used…

I found a great acid bass sound on my Dreadbox Typhon, and just played around with it while it was driven by an arpeggio on my Keystep 37, at 183 bpm. I recorded it into my Model 12 Mixer, then I did that a second time with a different sequence…

I made this within the constraints of the February 2024 challenge topic on the Deluge (synth) Discord group. "February's challenge is to NOT use the sequencer for any clip. Record your playing directly into the clip. Try not to use quantization…

Improvisation recorded on 10-30-2023. I was messing around with different instruments on the Arturia V intro, and found the "Funk AD" Clavinet preset to have a really nice sound. I messed around with it for a while, then found a few chords…

I made this on Friday afternoon as a late entry to a contest that may not have been legit, but oh well, I had fun and made a danceable jam. I had to use at least two samples from a specific sample pack featuring synths and saxophones. I built…

This piece is somewhat programmatic, somewhat expressive. I wanted to tell a story of moving from a dark place of drudgery and powerlessness to finding courage, strength, purpose, and joy. Created for the Record Every Month challenge for July…
