Short Ambient Synthesizer Patch With Cellular Automata Visuals
Hey guys. Here's a fun patch I wanted to share.
I recently traded out my sample based modules for a few more Joranalogue things. Namely the Filter 8, Generate 3, and Select 2. These might literally be the most inspiring modules I have ever put in my system. Why didn't you guys tell me how crazy their stuff is??
I also wanted to pair this with some more Lenia videos I cooked up. I recently gave a talk on CA and felt like the world needed more simulations of this stuff out there.
Thanks for tuning in!

It's time for another dawless techno jam. Just pulled in the Arturia Microfreak Stellar. Funky little guy that one. I love the sequencing capabilities, and I knew I had to try it out in a full jam.

Reaktor 6 Blocks // Breakbeat Jam
Просмотров 1,1 тыс.Год назад
Here I use Native Instruments, Reaktor 6 Blocks to create a funky breakbeat, garage type thing. All of the audio is coming straight from Reaktor, although I did send the audio into FL Studio for a little bit of final compression. I'm using the System Discrete pack I've been working on, which you can try for yourself here: www.native-instruments.com/en/reaktor-community/reaktor-user-library/entr...

Using Reaktor 6 to Make a Modular Album

The Reaktor 6 block format has brought on an exciting way for me to make modular music, and I was able to program my own modules to help me build an album! Of course my preferred way to listen to the new album is bandcamp, and here is the direct link: rickhowell.bandcamp.com/album/themes-from-an-undying-world The blocks pack can be found here: www.native-instruments.com/en/reaktor-community/rea...

Here we go again with the Arturia Minibrute 2S, Behringer Neutron, and Modular gear, with some funky trance inspired things. I wrote a horrible python script that lets me actually record midi information from my Drumbrute Impact into FL Studio without crashing the whole thing. For some reason, it doesn't work with the step repeat at 1/32 resolution but I think that may be a quantization thing a...
Chill Modular Techno

Figured out how to control the Squarp Rample using my Drumbrute Impact, so I had to give it a try with some Ambient, IDM adjacent, coolness. Mutable Instruments Marbles is sending CV into the dual quantizer in Ornament and Crime, and Temps Utile is sending gate information with some prime valued Euclidean rhythms. Both channels are being sent to the Behringer Neutron oscillators and envelope ge...

techno on the floor in miami
Просмотров 2,6 тыс.2 года назад
I recently moved into an apartment in Miami FL with my girlfriend since I'll be attending UM this fall. The only furniture we have are a couple folding chairs and a wobbly decoration table we use to eat on, so until we get a desk, it looks like I'm making music on the floor lol. This is the first little jam in the apartment- just a cute dub techno / ambient thing. Thanks for tuning in everyone....

Nice patch, cool visuals
Yeah!!!
Yeah!!!
This is insane !
could you kindly provide us with the steps for the various instruments you set up for this performance? thanks
Crazy enough this is the only instrument! All the sounds are coming from the Drumbrute Impact. I posted a video like directly before this one where I talk about some theory in programming a techno track on the thing if you're interested in that too
This track is incrédible, cant stop listening to it !
omg❤
Beautiful work❤
Which reverb pedal did you use?
@@Suboclause I wasn't using a pedal herel, I'm pretty sure it was either the stock FL Studio reverb or Valhalla Supermassive. Nothing crazy
Yessir❤
Sweet grooves❤ subscribed ✨️
that was just plain amazing
how do you make the rumble kick?
Valhalla supermassive and very heavy compression with FL Studio's maximus
😮🖤
if you could only keep one which would it be?
Funny enough I ended up selling the behringer neutron and keeping the Minibrute 2S. The neutron has more 'character' to its sound, but the Minibrute has so much in terms of utility / sequencing capabilities that make it much more worth it in my opinion
too many unpatched jacks
ugh so good
That's awesome realise, Rick! Game of Life looks nice, Brian Eno played this.
Thank you!
sounds like plaid
I was listening to a little bit of plaid while I was recording this, so they definitely had an influence on the flavor
Really loving this. Such a wide spectrum of sounds and energy levels yet it all feels really cohesive as an album.
Funny enough I spent a lot of time trying to make sure this album had direction instead of being just a 'collection of songs'. I'm glad that didn't go unnoticed
Such a cool setup 🤘
Biutiful ❤
As someone who isn’t in the music industry, I kind of thought I was going to be really lost through this, but the way you broke this down was really clear, interesting, and easy to follow. Look forward to seeing and hearing more! 🎧🎶
This is anything crazy!!
Riiiick!
Interesting 😮
Bravo! Ritchie Hawtin would ❤
You’ve spent lots of time building cool stuff in reaktor for sure. I remember starting to get into that back around 2009, and then my G5 took a crap and had to get a new hard drive and native instruments wouldn’t allow me to install because it kept saying new hardware detected. I followed everything they showed me to do and well unsuccessfully. Until I got a brand new MacBook Pro and the contemporary software. Time went by and never got back into reaktor. Dumb shit getting in the way of progress!
Music is so cool, I'm a beginner who learns from watching your RUclips, what machine is set in this music that sounds like ambient rhythm other than bass beat? I have minibrute2s
Here the minibrute is just taking care of the bass, and I have two more voices coming from the microfreak and a regular eurorack oscillator
This is Amazing, tried it my self, + clipped it with my UMC1820, what a BASS! after trying your way I tried to Isolate the sub frequencies of it on a C and got some nice new waveforms to use on serum ahahah
J'adore ta config' ! Balancer le MiniBrute dans le Neutron, bonne idée ! Le son est magnifique 😵💫🤖👾
Nice work. This rips!
Is this jam on Spotify or something?
Amazing live dude 🔥
Crazy damn good track! Absolutely resonates with my mood as for now. I've sabotaged my job listening to it ))) I'm a hobbits bass player with ambitions to make local performances. As good drummers are always scarce I often practice with drum playbacks or metronome. It started to bore me quiet a lot so I decided to buy Drumbrute Impact. I felt in love immediately because of thick warm analogue tone. Also I have an ability to drive rythm while playing. And today is another Bingo. I've heard Drumbrute and minibrute combined ❤. Now I know, how my performance will look like. I can start as solo artist with robust sound core and later invite real drummer and guitarist to the project. I was sceptical for all this synth stuff until now. It's like an addiction )) Thank you for the inspirational track. +1 sub
❤❤❤❤
Excellent video, thank you for sharing all this!
Great album dude!! Enjoyed it
Wow 🤙 Wooow How is it sidechained on the kick? Wich device is used? Thank you
Endorphin.es cockpit 2 lets me sidechain
@@RickHowell great, thanks you! 👍👍
Was gonna give you a thumbs up anyway, but as soon as I heard Bob James I made sure to hit the button.
What are the effects on FL, this is like the first time I am hearing the Drumbrute Impact sound so clean and loud? Like it's amazing how you manage to make it sound the way it does.
Here it's just some heavy multiband compression to be honest. Maximus is putting in a lot of work
Jeff Mills style on DBI.
Rick, So GooooD!!!
WTF I think I have to like this very much. Crazy one-machine composition!
Màster 🎉
the breakdown trick is siiiick
Hello great musician, will you share your gearlist in this awsome video with us?🙏❤️🙏
Here is a photo of the current modular setup: cdn.modulargrid.net/img/racks/modulargrid_1825166.jpg Other than that I was using the behringer neutron and the drumbrute impact here
@@RickHowellThank you so much!!!🙏🙏❤️🙏🙏
It’s now in my list also
So Intens!!🙏❤️🙏
Your video is great to look at. Learned much from it. Modular is great fun and insperational for a musicians mind. Thanks and keep going !
