I got money for Synplant 2 for a birthday present. ❤️❤️

What's cool about Synplant 2 is that it does what AI is supposed to do in a musical sense: make sound design local and very easy without using external Suno-type applications.
Also it runs great with Wine and yabridgectl

The Genopatch basically reads a short wave file / musical sample and tries to replicate it into a json-type preset file that can be tweaked. It doesn't replicate a lot of sounds perfectly which is where the human touch comes in. From there, a producer can tweak the preset or make a completely new sound on their own.

I also put on the Phenotype script. It does a mediocre job of creating a sound based on a prompt (it's local javascript under the hood), and pretty much gives template-ish sounds to tweak. Basic prompty patches sound like chiptune sounds and the small "LLM model" isn't very advanced but it does automate basic wave, filter, and amp ASDR tasks. Fun stuff!

EDIT: For some reason, the image comes up as hidden media. I'm not sure why.

I've been thinking about drums and how Reason has the option of instrument lanes, and can this be done in Bitwig Studio?

Editing programmed drums can be aided by having a note lane for each voice.

Today's solution is to use a Group Track to hold the Drum Machine and a Note FX Layer to route Instrument Tracks into the Group Track. This feels like a good way to continue. This will hopefully find its way into my next #FSOBW track

#BitwigStudio #Reason #ElectronicMusicProduction #LinuxAudio #BonkWave #NotBonkWave

I am tediously crafting a #BitwigStudio port of my old #Reason Drum Kits so I can have a particular 'sound'. The exercise is valid in that it is pushing me to concentrate on the mappings of samples, reading the NN-XT sampler settings in Reason and converting these to meaningful information for Bitwig.

There are 9.8k sample files. There are recordings for Room, Close, under the Snare, and Overhead.

I'm building a nifty spreadsheet on #kDrive as a first exercise of working outside of #Google.

And I am listening to #BernardPurdie and #ElvinJones while teasing out the various details.

I am very eager to start programming and making some sounds. #ElectronicMusicProduction

Friends of #BonkWave and #NotBonkWave! May I present to you my new AS 248 Sequencer preset for #BitwigStudio v6.0 and above.

Great for #ExperimentalMusic #ElectronicMusicProduction and #AcousticMeditation

Friends of #ElectronicMusicProduction who like samples, you might be interested to look at Archive.org and a very large collection of #samples from the 90s. Could be good for #BonkWave and #NotBonkWave

It is most reassuring that I have been able to get my workflow back in place for #BitwigStudio for #Linux #ElectronicMusicProduction again.

It's been just over 3 months since I moved away from Windows and there were some moments where overwork at the brewery and holiday business fatigue had me worried that I had might not find my muse again.

I am pleased to report that #weird sounds are again flowing from my fingertips.

Is it #BonkWave or #NotBonkWave - time will tell and I want to finish it first so I don't want to spoil the surprise.

#Linux #ElectronicMusicProduction journey update. After my very clumsy and ruinous command entry of three days ago I am back to a fully operational setup.

A do-over meant making a couple of changes, ditching some things and discovering what had been poorly documented the first (or nth) time around.

I am glad to be back in what feels a stable configuration.

Questions that remain:
1. how did the tilde get picked up in a quick copy paste action?
2. why do Flatpack installations have permissions such that when customising locations the Flatpack application can not see custom locations in my user file structure?

These aren't burning questions which I will loose sleep over, but they present some curiosities that I'd eventually like to better understand.

I bought myself a #BlackFriday special of the 2025 #SamplesFromMars items. I really like how these enthusiasts are using historic gear and are producing vinyl and tape #music archives to then resample and offer as part of their packs. There are some sweet sounds in there. They are fun for working with in #BitwigStudio for #ElectronicMusicProduction and possibly in the search for #BonkWave and #NotBonkWave sounds.

@mosgaard thank you for your kind words. I’ve written what I would have liked to refer to when I was new to this.

I now have a responsive workstation where I can explore #Linux driven #BonkWave and #NotBonkWave #ElectronicMusicProduction in #BitwigStudio.

And I use it for all my other needs too.

My #LinuxAudio journey is continuing and so far, so good in #LinuxMint. I have multiple versions of #BitwigStudio installed alongside one another. My goal of creative #ElectronicMusicProduction on #Linux is nearing a fully functional state.

And everything is working. This time I am taking notes and saving snippets of code to my website. Anyone else wishing to replicate this (it is a work in progress) can check out my notes over here: https://www.ambientspace.com/technical-notes/bitwig-notes/linux-audio-considerations

Post post postscript. Clearly there are things that happen to semiconductors as they age and so I have added an "Age" modulator that introduces random cross-modulated wiggles that attenuate in the longer the gate is open. #Wibbly #ElectronicMusicProduction in #BitwigStudio and ideal for #BonkWave - whew.

Time for bed and dreaming of making some exciting music.

Post postscript. Today my #ShermanFilterbank is behaving more typically today. Dirty pot made better by using? Switching and turn it back on again?

More critical listening shows I was close but not on the mark yesterday. Today? A lot closer. I want to add some basic switches to adjust the envelope follower to smooth it and attenuate in heavy signal conditions.

#ElectronicMusicProduction in #BitwigStudio with custom grid presets…

My #BucketList has meeting #HermanGillis of #Sherman at the top. I would love to have a few hours to talk with him and appreciate his process of discovery. He is an under-appreciated #genius .

Now I need to rewrite my instructions page and curate versions so previous editions remain available in case anyone is actually using my preset for #ElectronicMusicProduction and #SoundDesign purposes.

Hey fam, so I got finished adding my music to Mirlo, so everything is now on both Bandcamp and Mirlo. I much prefer Mirlo’s upload model that let me dump whole albums into the uploader at once instead of track at a time or pay to batch upload like Bandcamp has. Obviously I have a following on Bandcamp and absolutely zero on Mirlo, but I’ll continue to upload to both and you can choose where you go to stream/buy. Thanks for your support and patience!

My #Linux journey continues. A couple of hours of noodling has #LinuxMint looking and feeling very comfortable. Installing #VCVRack required a little bit of 'sudo fu' and some permissions fun so that the #VST showed up in #BitwigStudio - I will need to figure out how to make an executable script to launch VCV Rack in standalone rather than using the command prompt, but that should not prove to be too daunting #LinuxAudio - and so I am ready to start digging into some #ElectronicMusicProduction

#DimethoxyAudio:

Moin.
Mein Highlight letzte Woche war dieses Video, in dem Alex Ball mit viel Mühe, Hingabe und Synthnerdusiasm die Produktion von "Don't You Want Me" nachbaut. Das erklärt vielleicht auch, warum es mir damals so schwer fiel, den Song auf dem C64 im Soundmonitor nachzuspielen. 😅

Wer nicht alles anschauen möchte: ein spannendes Detail bei ca. Minute 11 und der komplette Track am Ende bei 20:30, mit Sängerin Mishkin Fitzgerald.
👏☺️

#BandcampFriday is upon us once more! This time I have a fresh track prepared. It's #synthwave number called "Ultraviolet Lords of the Neon Highway (87'-89')"

Check it out at #bandcamp if you like that kind of thing.

Follow up to my last #WIP and #ShowYourWork another snippet of the same track. This time after mix and master.

Need to watch some more mixing and mastering tutorials.

Title is - Bonkwave Nouveau - A song dedicated to the men who wear the Ryan Gosling "Scorpian Jacket" unironically.

#music #Bonkwave #NotBonkWave #Retro #Synthwave #RetroElectro #ElectronicMusicProduction

A snippet of something I'm working on. It's a backup submission.

I'll sit on for the next #Bonkwave compilation, as I struggle with the deadline.

IT hasn't been mixed, or produced yet. Just a rough cut.
