วีดีโอ

I run everything into AUM on the ipad and have things mixed in there. I have a pretty big file in AUM that I have been building on for a few months so I keep tweaking. On any given day the sound can be good or bad. Levels are kinda done on the fly but an instance of TAIP on the master helps a lot. I never could get used to Ableton but I do love AUM on an ipad.

@@SoulSearchingGaijin ok, I'll look into TAIP. I currently use all the built-in plugins in Ableton so it might be time to branch out to 3rd party plugins. Ableton has so many features and UI elements that it can be overwhelming . I've been using it on and off since 2015 for producing and live performance so I'm happy to answer any questions about it if you ever decide to go down that road.

Yeah I am now a little afraid of relying on the ipad rig 100%. I like this one but really don't like the bluebox as a mixer. It's a compromise for space. I'm sure things will evolve in this rig also as I get to know it more. It will feel good to have two different sets ready to go for sure.

whenever I've had to rely on a touch screen at a live show, it's been a stressful experience. Fine for home sessions or recording......every situation is unique

Thank you! I see you''re having fun with the new mixer. Enjoy!

Thanks!

Thank you!

It's my favorite instrument. If you ever get a chance to pick one up you won't regret it. Thanks for stopping bye.

@SoulSearchingGaijin One day 😁 I played one once and it was very fun!

Thanks dude! This one was off the cuff and a little ruff but doing a track everyday comes with comes with that trade off.

Thank you!

I'm in Osaka Japan. I did this one the night of Jan 2nd and scheduled it early for the morning of the 3rd my time. I am trying to get ahead of things as new music everyday is something I haven't tried to achieve yet.

@@SoulSearchingGaijin Thank you for sharing definitely motivated about to do my jam # 2

@@weonevibeswegoodvibes3255 Best of luck.

I'm not sure what happened there. I was in a rush to make this but to the best of my knowledge it was done in stereo. I do agree it sounds thin. I will have to look back and see what could have happened. Anyway thanks for listening and. commenting.

Nice. I haven't hear this one in a while. I need to revisit it.

Thank you!

Thank you! I really like to use pedals. You never know what you're gonna get. The microcosm is great but I still don't really know it too well. It is pretty deep. Hours of fun exploration with that one for sure. Enjoy.

Thanks Andy! I will be stopping bye a lot. I love your guitar playing, great vibe and very chill.

Thanks Wabbit! I hope you enjoy your new mixer.

Thanks. It is tricky to just come up with something quickly. I'm still trying to get used to just letting things fly and not overthinking too much. This whole TH-cam thing is a test in so many ways.

@SoulSearchingGaijin Couldn't agree more!

Thanks so much. To be honest the crazy drums come from tons of FXS, delays specifically. I have an instance of "Transit" on the master and a second with slightly different settings on both the Digitone and Digitakt. AUM is a powerful friend.

Thanks Wabbit! I really need to pay attention to the video but I do get caught up in the music. Have a great new year!

I actually like the weird focus thing. I've been trying to think of ways of automating some small visual part of my live electronica videos so that there's another little thing going on but this is something I'd never thought of!

@@GoldbuggMusic It's all by accident. I keep trying to remember to switch off auto focus because so many people gave me S..t about it. The video part is not my strong suit.

You just listed most of my favorite things also. I hope you have a great 2025! Thanks for listening.

Happy New Year! I look forward to whats to come in 2025. Thanks for stopping bye.

Thank you! Happy New Year! May you be blessed with joy and abundance in 2025!

I hope to see you soon.

I hope to create at least 50 minutes of music this month. I have been floating around the idea of doing the Jamuary challenge but am a little too freaked out about not being able to keep up with it to proclaim it on TH-cam. Either way I'm going to do my best to post something everyday this month and see how long I can keep it up. Thanks for the support!

I'm glad you enjoyed!

Thank you! I had fun with this one.

Thanks so much. I'm glad you liked it!

Yeah kinda creepy. Thanks for listening.

Thanks! Just a fun little jam.

Yeah this one was a happy accident. Thanks for stopping bye.

Thank you and welcome!

I know how your feel. It can be stressful but for me at the moment I'm trying to push myself a bit. If nothing else to catch up for all the years I slept on my music. Either way just getting it out there no matter how you do it is very rewarding and makes space to create more. Thanks for having a listen.

Thank you so much.

Thank you!

Thanks Greg. Nothing that important just spent a little too much free time catching up on world events. I like to stay in my own bubble of energy but I let a few outside forces get to me this week. Thanks for the concern. After this track I made another completely opposite vide. That will be posted real soon. I hope all is well with you!

@@SoulSearchingGaijin Very well my friend, all good on this end. Yep sometimes negative energy creeps into our lives from outside our bubble of energy, I can relate completely. I am a Scorpio, very passionate about what I involve myself in, including friends. Times are rough all over the world right now, and synthesis helps me alleviate some of the stress in my life. Looking forward to your next post, your friend Greg. 😎 Carpe diem.

Thanks Wabbit! All is well no worries. Sometimes it's just good to let out some stress in the music. Nothing major I've just watched a little to much world events lately. I try my best not to do that.

I'm glad you like it! I woke up and did this while having my morning coffee lol. It came real easy and without much thought. Sometimes it's nice to just go with whatever is flowing.

Thank you!

Thanks so much! I really enjoyed creating this music. I learned a valuable lesson on trusting computers/ipads. I have since figured it out but it did make that show a bit tricky. I want to refine this set a bit more and will perform it at my next show on Jan 7th. After that it's on to a new set.

I use Loopy pro on the ipad hosted in the program AUM which is my mixer and fxs source. I also have a few elements programed in there as well.

Thanks. I have an instance of "Transit" from Baby Audio mapped to the left/right fader. I use it kinda like Ezbots performance effects on the Octatrack. The fader fox is a crucial piece in the setup. I have 3 banks fully mapped to things in the ipad/AUM

@@SoulSearchingGaijin Thank you! The Faderfox is on my list to be added soon.

@@LuisTorres-qz5kr It really helps a lot. I'm sure you will be happy.

@@SoulSearchingGaijin Thx!

You're the man! Thank you for all the encouragement and taking the time to listen. I felt good about this one.

Thanks. I really like the handsonic drum pad. Next I need to load my own samples into it and create some interesting nonconventional kits.

Thank you So Much. That really means a lot to me. I enjoyed making this set and felt it should have a good showing.

Thank you! I love this piece.

Thank you! I'm getting a little better everyday. I still have a long way to go.

I agree I was not very impressed. I would say what do you expect for the cheap price. I have long since moved on from this piece of gear but it may work well for some. If you add some fxs and use it with other gear it can find it's place. In the end I guess it's all about your expectations and what you are looking for.

Thank you! I feel real good about my progress and look forward to next year with high hopes.

The trick is managing them both. I have a lot more practicing to do before Saturday.

Thank you.

I'm recording on the iPad inside AUM using loopy pro. I have 4 tracks set up and am using a blue tooth midi foot controller to work the looping program.
