Tuning:
Harmonic six-star, group A, from Fokker
16/15 6/5 32/25 4/3 3/2 8/5 48/25 2/1
A string composition played on Fender Mustang driving a Roland GR-20 that was re-tuned on the fly
And another one I didn't share from the same day. I must of been in a funk where it all sounded really bad. This improvisation concentrates more on melodic aspects of 22 edo though there are some harmonies.
Hello guest (75.27.136.221)
I'm just following my ears. I suspect my mind imposes more order on the chaos than just running wild - also I suspect it is not a strict "anything" like a MOS.

If I had a 2^ n/22 keyboard handy I could learn a lot from reproducing the melodic phrases in this piece. Are you sticking to a particular mode here, maybe one of Erlich's decatonic 22 edo modes, or are you just canoodling around without a moment of symmetry?
Nice job, Chris! I really like the way you developed the piece! Sounds really good! Part of the melody made me think of a rhythm of Nirvana's Heart Shaped Box, which I happen to like quite a bit. Thanks for posting!

Here is something I had laying around that I forgot I did. A 9 edo improvisation with my Roland GR-20 + Fender Mustang combination. This will probably sound pretty foreign and / or out of tune. To me it sounds oddly funky in places like at 0:22

We forgot to mention that Reg visited Norm's place a little later and added some vocals. The video is a ride through the US state of Virginia. The Texas Tavern serves cheesy westerns (cheese, fried egg, burger, bun) in the downtown of Roanoke Va.

I do have video of Jacob playing the udderbot with the band - but right now I'm still putting together my gear from storage and this was the best I could do with Windows Live movie maker on my laptop.
So for now - enjoy the sound of Jacob jamming…
consider this a microcosm of the final work that might just happen ,, yes a complete Klingon Orchestrated Opera :) (feeling shameful that it was Chris's idea first.) (this is a mire raw example of an outproduced work.>
well - actually - there *was* a Klingon opera which is where I got the title. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E2%80%99u%E2%80%99
and this Klingon band is interesting...

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..........................
Performed live by Rainbowtruth @ Irish Brigade Fredricksburg, VA circa late 1990's.

Slightly more aggressive than the original. Cool high-energy take w…
"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!!

My (under-educated) ear finds this piece very instructional. Neat.
and the fairies came out although it was not yet dusk"...........
This is a very nice piece. Thanks for posting. Like the combination very much!
I like this. Thanks for posting Chris!
Sparkly!
Belle has wonderfully good taste
Really like the feel of this.....
This one is worth downloading and passing on for generations. Fabulous.
Supergroup!
Great track excellent.
Beautifully played mate.
Beautiful indeed and so well played.
beautiful playing......I'm sure Belle enjoyed it as much as I did
excellent. that would make a nice movie: cowboys versus spies :)
I usually go to iHop for a cheesy western, but I bet they're better at Texas Tavern.
Cool track.....can a video make you car sick? ;) crazy trip....

this is an oddly compelling piece - its like an electroband kidnapped Weird Al to jam on accordion. The production clarity is excellent too.
I love the sound of this - beautiful!! What do the pedals do in a pedal steel guitar?

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?
