Since last week I've been developing the method I used to generate the textured noise percussion from chaotic equations into a Max For Live device. I spent a lot of my time this week actually building the device and getting the UI elements right along with the signal chain. I needed a multiband compressor so I learned how to build one using Linkwitz-Riley crossover filters in MaxMSP using Gen~ from a guide by Timothy Place. I made a simple compressor using Gen and adapted Tim's/Trond Lossius's coefficient calculator from JS into Genexpr also. If you're a max user you can get it at the above link.
This submission is a demo sketch of seven instances of my Max For Live instrument I'm called CHAOSC. I was waiting for a flight and needed to submit so I'm using another Max For Live device to generate simple patterns on each of the seven channels and tweaking params and soloing each while recording straight out of Ableton. I wish I brought a MIDI controller with me on this trip. If you follow me on Twitter or Instagram you can see demos of the UI. I’ve been away at a conference all this week for work, so spending every spare minute developing the device!
Pretty stoked I've got a little device that's great at making Ryoji Ikeda textures. I'm keen to develop some techniques for performing live with this thing and use it for the project Aday and I started last year 'Error Diffusion'.
