For improv friday
This is part 2 - see Keys at Lowes for an explanation of what I'm trying to do.
Ok, another try using base frequencies of 0.1, 3, 10, 17, 33 and 48 Hz spread in stereo space plus some of the original mixed in. (additional…
This is right up my street, you're really getting some fabulous timbres out of this. I tried the improvFriday site a couple of weeks ago but really had no idea what I was doing.
For improv friday
I did an experiment using Paul's Extreme Stretch harmonics function and Audacity.
I took a raw field recording (included here field recording http://notonlymusic.com/board/download/file.php?id=1187 ) and ran it through…
I don't use autotune either, though collaborators have been known to serlap some on me. Very rude. :-)
This is very pretty...and I can't see where you'd need tuning. Lovely, intimate vocal.

(a setting of) The Conqueror Worm by Edgar Allen Poe
LO! 't is a gala night
Within the lonesome latter years.
An angel throng, bewinged, bedight
In veils, and drowned in tears,
Sit in a theatre to see
A play of hopes and fears,
While the orchestra…
this is a mono/nonstereo track because my fourtrack recorded decided that mono is better then stereo but at least the dang thing works ,, I guess,, From now on it is direct records from the outside machine to the computer not thru the fourtrack…
if you use something as a midi controller there are a few VSTi software microtonal synthesizers that are free which makes it easier. Savihost - and other VSTi hosting software let you play microtonally - all you have to keep track of is how the extra (or less) notes translate to the normal keyboard.
This piece is crazy! How'd you do the drums?
As for mono/stereo - what you need is either a Y-cable with 1/4 male to 1/8 stereo (or collection of pieces that do that)
If you are still using Sonar I guess its lets of an issue - just record multiple tracks.
very similar to the 'more of this a' but part 2
btw the video for todays' computer music work is getting uploaded now. all 25 min 25 sec and 25 frames there of.
1/1/11; took bits from two of Mark's tracks from Pleasure Listening (2002) and improvised in Max with them, then mixed in DP. a mellow vibe for the new year.
This song is not for everyone but I like it because its a live recording with a single instrument using infinity delay FX. (I turned on the loop delay at :09 after the guitar was flat on the floor.)
All the sounds are made with an acoustic bass…
I didn't like the 1st version so i changed it so here it is. imagine Sitting in the forest listening to the breeze being free and wanting to follow it..........................

"High Life" is a musical genre that originated in Ghana in the 1900s and spread to Sierra Leone, Nigeria and other West African countries by 1920. My friends from that part of the world consider this be the "go-to" rhythm for just about anything…
Kinda rough. I'm uploading this mainly to share a guitar technique I've been working on. I'm wearing a slide on my picking hand and using it to alter pitches in single line phrases. There's a lot more can be done with this technique that I've…
I 2nd the request for a video. I'm assuming you are pushing the slide off the bridge toward the neck - correct? I've net ever heard of someone putting the slide on the picking hand before - but it sure sounds great!! Beautiful piece of work here Kirk!!

Lovely improv!
nice piano improvisation I love it!

Arthur C. Clarke once wrote "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic". This was truly magical my friend :)
Mellow.
Glad you liked Holy Wind. Had to work on my bass for a few days...things had gone awry.
indeed, you don't need autotune at all ;)
Oh, deliciously offbeat! You always surprise me!
Mystical and beautiful.
very poignant - could/should be in a film
Ahh, very tenderly sung and played. Why would you need autotune anyway?
Woah, improvisation!? Awesome!!!
I don't use autotune either, though collaborators have been known to serlap some on me. Very rude. :-) This is very pretty...and I can't see where you'd need tuning. Lovely, intimate vocal.
psychedelic vid man. voodoo metal turns me on........
Heavy as Hell!
Awesome
Powerful words, rockin' guitar and vox!
Sorry, you used a viola bow on your guitar?! thats sick! such a wicked sound!
totally Poe-esque! theatrical, dramatic and crazy (yes, we want more crazyness!) ;)
beautiful piece indeed..

I watched the whole video - I take it what was happening is that you layered video of you layering the sound? Very disorientating and interesting.
this is intense!! more microkorg?
this is a fantastic trip!
your soul is motown~!
alright!! new keys!!! This sounds excellent!
haha! this is great!!
right up my alley - awesome work my friend!
sounds..... Hungarian!
enjoyed!!
one of my favorite songs covered with power and great taste!!
wild story!
excellent! I like the way the congas answer each other.
this is beautiful - I love the slide. Gosh I sound so amateurish compared to you guys (and Kirk, and Bethan, and Tess, and ..... I'm just wow'd .

wow - this harkens back to the Beatniks with a motown funk vibe - that is so cool! - I love your voice Reg!!
would either of you have a rpoblem if I added to this?
excellent! The interplay between guitar and percussion is very good.
I notice "voip" - is this what caused SKYPE to crash? excellent!! brutal!
very funky! love the funky keys. what a story!
