W07 - Ruby's Song
By ENC_ on February 18, 2024 1:12 pm
User Wangus mentioned using a TX81Z last week in the discord. I decided to utilize mine since I repaired it recently. I have a real soft spot for old FM synths and chips. I reworked some of the mastering I did in the week prior and have a put together a cover for bandcamp. Still a WIP for the live release. I should be spending more time on my responsibilities and career stuff. Don't feel great about that. Song named after my cat who visited me while working on this track. She's a beacon of light for this time in life. Sampled her during visit.
I made another track this week as a test for the new Alpha juno plug in from TAL. much shorter might resurrect for next week. I miss owning a alpha juno. Regret selling for juno-6. looking into MKS version. Seeking less time with uninspiring things and trapped in loop. Interest from the week 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 palaqara by 0F.digital, Lone Trax vol. 2 by Auvrel, Da Nao Tian Gong by Polygonia, Surfaces by IJO, LIVE 2019 by Louis cole. Future planning put off for the week.

Tape [max]
M8 sequencing, mixing, and effecting TX81Z. Direct 2 channel recording from M8. Audacity used to capture Ruby. Had to read manual to save patch. After editing, go back to play mode and then hold store, use increment buttons to select memory space. let go of store button to select bank and press yes to confirm save. Mixed feelings positive life negative career and time lost. found grays mixed in with normal hair... stressful to think about. Rough interaction with VTC but reached out during week. Hope they recoginize the effort. Checked in on FB. different person. Missing lexicon Alex, not sure where it went. was going to use for processing the TX81Z (polyphonic + stereo stuff). mastered stereo recording in ableton.
Program changes not used. Requires manual patch switch in M8 to recreate.
