10:34 The Jam
It’s been a while since I built an iPad-only jam. This video had an overview of an AUM setup and then a jam. An 808-type drum kit from Ruizmaker is run through SpaceFields for a distant soundscape to start. Sparse electric piano notes from AudioKit fade in and out, with a soft Moog solo over the sonic landscape. From there, another percussion line in Rosetta X0X with sounds from Ruizmaker FM as well as a sequenced line from the Moog Model D. Then, another Moog Model 15 solo and fades to bring the improv to a f...

808 Soundscape: iPad Improv - AUM, SpaceFields, Moog, Ruismaker, Bleass, Audio Damage

Another iPad-only improv. An 808-type drum kit from Ruizmaker is run through SpaceFields. It takes a couple of seconds for the soundscape to start. Then an electric piano from AudioKit fades in and leads to a soft Moog solo. From there, it’s a new drum line from Ruizmaker FM, a sequenced line from the Moog Model D, and then another Moog Model 15 solo, which ends up back at the soundscape to a f...

    I've always been impressed with the original Mellotron and the sounds for it's time back in the 60's. But I have to throw in wtih a few others here that the $2800 price tag IMO negates any value of this wannabe unit. It's just a digital sampler and lacks the dynamics of the original tapes of the old analog version. My vintage Ensoniq from the 90's has comparable sounds to most of these samples. Just sayin'
