Sanctifried Chicken

Went away a couple weeks ago, now playing catch up, hence all these max patches that quickly auto-generate things... but there's new stuff in Max recently making things so much quicker to layer sounds and generate rhythms, etc.
long story short... next few weeks will probably be quite a few max patches as i'm having fun trying out new stuff...
i'll share them all-at-once in some later thread...
here's a visualizer thingie made with jitter in the same patch:

also, i made up some new techniques in max to create rhythms and thick layered sounds, here's a sneak peek of a patch i plan to iterate into many different tracks in the future, makes quick changes in texture by allowing me to switch up the number of 'chans'/layers/voices used in the synthesis and also the number of layers adds to the complexity of the auto-generated sequencing:

hope you're all doing awesomely! heart

Wow.  Wild stuff.  I really like what it's managed to pull together though.  The Jitter Viz is rad too!

crunchy, greasy, and delicious. I'll have another wing please.
the reverb/convolution/filter action is awesome!

Plucky cheeky

In your ear, not your face

Cool ideas also in vids

Why the one true kick? What's the story?

Sonic super highway.

The combo of that big ass beat and the little arp bits is excellent, I started off appreciating the contrast and ended up thinking it's the main course! (It took me an embarrassingly wrong time the first word was "sanctiFRIED.")

It sounds like flying into the vortex of cyberspace. Super cool textures and well done with the reverb. Excited to see what's next

Thanks! ...haha, i think license said that phrase, "one true kick"... there's no story that i know of: i just commented that the kick in his last two tracks is a good ass-kicking one... now that you mention it, i feel like making up a story though... something about a search for a kick, rarely heard except in the right conditions when the wind is just right, a green flash appears at sunset and the polar magnetism of the earth reverses all at once, the sudden magnetic shift coupled with a massive return of souls from the land of the dead, causes a massive sonic boom heard like a kick drum that rings out a shockwave across the planet causing everyone to shit themselves all at once... one true kick! a massive release! veritably orgasmic as everyone realizes this was the ugly vulnerability we all feared all our lives, yet when it finally came we all feel so relaxed afterwards (yessss, that's the story! we all shit ourselves in the end... but in a good way! big_smile)

yesssss

the blipping arp rhythms in combination with that thunderous beat are dope. A lot of cool sounds blended throughout

Wooooooow this is cool. This is yet another great reminder of why I still need to dig deep into Max like I've been meaning to for years now. Really looking forward to seeing the patches you come up with the in the coming weeks. heart

i'm dying laughing at the track title.

also i forgot to say OMFGThaMelodrama was genius as well.  a weekly recap talk show about reality tv dating shows and that was the theme music! 

I wonder how your brain works to come up with these programs/algorithms - wild.
