Luivo groove

By laguna on June 2, 2024 11:56 pm

Named in honour of my second cat, the one in the middle, who's a natural speaker but has never been recorded and/or sampled in 16 years. The "wow" kind of sound is in fact my Mum answering him when he demands his breakfast in the morning. However, the second you press record he goes completely silent.

I guess he wants his meows credited and properly cleared smile

Made on a 2014 Macbook Air using Reaper, a Teenage Engineering PO33 KO and the M1 and Triton from the Korg legacy collection. I'm no man of presets, but those are the classic "Organ 2" (Gipsy Woman, Show me love, etc...) and a nice 'Digi Sunshine' straight from the late nineties).


I've had the PO33 for more than 2 years. It was a Christmas present and I was about to sell it because I didn't "get it". I sat down in my free time with pen and paper and learned the thing, until it all made sense. It's a fun box once you forget about "sound quality" and "the proper cables and connections"... just get sound in and out of it, and make a track, slowly. The organ chord was sampled, but sounded almost distorted and very muffled, so it's reinforced by its nice VST counterpart.

I almost lose my upload slot because I had some nice ideas for the track, but... time's up. I should be sleeping (4 days in my shift to go).

Very slowly, getting back to the land of the living... and the comment section smile

Lots of love to you, wherever you are!!!
