Stratus

By laguna on May 19, 2024 11:58 pm

I'm afraid I had another track called "stratus". I thought about calling it "Venara" (Venus in russian) because of a cool Soviet exploration documentary I was watching this morning.

I just wrote 2 bars (4 bars, really) and dumped that to audio, so the interplay between the (open source VCV/Cardinal version of) the Mutable Instruments Braids and its own pitched audio gave some illusion of melodic change.

This time I have half a excuse for being that lazy: my Reaper install crashed and prior to 2 hours before the deadline I was reinstalling the thing. Anyway, some of the laziest efforts this year.

Don't be too harsh, it was hour and a half of pointless messing around.

Will promise to answer the comments. Love you all smile

Very interesting usage of delay for these percussive lines. I love the reverse lines as well. Some of the synths sound a little like an harpsichord as well. I like it!

Oh, yes. I was looking for the harpsichord vibe using the Braids clone. It's a synth I "don't get", and I have a clone hardware unit that gets almost no utilization, so I force myself to find some interesting sound before selling it (specially now that it can be emulated so easily in VCV/Cardinal).

Thanks for listening and the comments. The delay lines tried to add some interest to a mostly boring tune, though I admit there could be some interesting ideas here if given proper time.
