Well done, sir! Definitely drum rack material.

I dig minimal concepts.  Executed well.

I've been wondering weather I need something to create noise in my modular and this sealed the deal for me. Noise is so versatile. Great track.

I'm really enjoying this one, OneZero. Your work always make me think you own a vault full of modular stuff but, no! Ableton like me. Pretty inspiring ideas. Will try to make my own take of your techniques.

Wonderful work!!!

Thanks, Jim!  It turns out that a good snare is pretty hard to do.  I'm thinking of going at it with four noise sources and filters.  Tricky stuff, given the way a snare actually sounds.

Thank you!

Thanks!  I think filters are the key, especially if you can modulate the cutoff frequency very quickly, maybe with a pulse input on the same trigger.

Thanks!  Yeah, I think Ableton Suite's very flexible, and it's a lot easier to carry around (and clean up/put away) than a modular rack.  Not that I wouldn't like a huge bank of modular equipment...  Have you tried setting up a bunch of effects in a return channel and have it feed back into itself?  I've found that great for modular-like effects, though I'm not using any of that in this piece.  Good luck!

I hadn't thought of this. Thanks for the suggestion.

You're welcome!  I use that in my WB pieces Nontotient, Heliosheath, and The Feed.  It's a fun way to work!

Just waiting when the electro beat kicks in and vocoders start:)
after reading that info text I have to say truly creative!
I respect people who can make music out of "nothing"!!
It's nice sometimes to put limitations to ways you work.

yeah, really great approach with some very tasteful outcome!!!

Thanks!  Now I'm going to have to try Live's Vocoder, which I've not played with.

I find that arbitrary constraints can often help the creative process.  When you can do anything, well, what can you do?  What about only using two notes? One drum? Some synth sound you usually avoid?   Well, then...that's when things get interesting!

Thanks!
