Instruō Arbhar and Säich // Granular Hulusi 葫芦丝

[@MengQiMusic]

The eerie sound of the granularly smashed 葫芦丝 is so refreshing. It sounds like silk with fangs.

[@Dexba]

Thank you so, so much! Seems like integrating acoustic instruments with synthesizers was the "circle squaring" I was looking for. Let's go!
And "silk with fangs" is amazing, I will keep it for some future album name ;)

As we chat... your case is REALLY beautiful.. may be a little bit shallow, but it's gorgeous. The main set of instruo modules are just a golden area of sound and modulation. The mixture you are making here between the Hulusi and the rest is just sublime..
well done my friend!

[@Dexba]

Thank you so, so much!
I love the clear approach from Instruō, of instruments made with the acoustic musician in mind, and I love the freedom of always carrying an internal microphone ready in my case!
I am pretty sure Larachd will follow after I will have done my VCAs duties!
Anyway, the oscilloscope is coming in this week (black and gold too), so there will be a lot of modular stuff coming in the next few weeks 🧡

[@axis_8]

I second that. Beautiful case. Beautiful patch as well. Thanks for sharing!

This patch is a the soundtrack to a cyberpunk revolution. I’m enamoured with this piece ❤❤❤❤❤

[@Dexba]

I am so glad, thank you 🧡
And I am sure it would fit perfectly, kinda want to see that now 😁

[@garaughty]

Gorgeous textures & atmosphere on this piece !

[@Dexba]

Thank you so much! Seems that the more I try to get away from grime-y, soundtrack-y textures, the closer I get to them 😄
And the combination of acoustic plus synthetic will always win 🧡

[@CNTRRNDM]

Wow! Absolutely amazing!!!

[@Dexba]

Thank you so much! Finally putting everything together 🧡

[@chris_economou]

Beautiful soundscape of unfolding flows…rather meditative. ✨✨✨✨✨✨

[@Dexba]

I am so glad you like it!
I kept it running for a while, like a sort of a menacing soundtrack to my afternoon.
Good times

[@chris_economou]

Yes!! Could use at least 10 minutes for a good meditation! Ha!

[@InnestiAmbient]

That was really unique sounding. Nice!

[@Dexba]

Thank you so much! 🧡
It was just about time I started to combine my passion for both synths and traditional instruments ☺

[@Digiphex]

Nice work.

[@Dexba]

Thank you a lot 🧡

[@joystickcan]

top notch !!!

[@Dexba]

Humbled, thank you so much 🧡

[@daniel_mana]

tanta roba! grande!

[@Dexba]

Ti ringrazio moltissimo! È un piccolo nuovo inizio

[@jpmudkip1870]

Doepfer sells a 6hp module with 8 vca’s in it for €108. Might solve your vca shortage problem, lol

[@Dexba]

INSTANT BUY, thank you for the heads up! 😁

[@jpmudkip1870]

@@Dexba no problem! I realize now I never said it doesn’t have volume knobs, but there are similarly priced quad vcas with knobs if you need that. 4 is less than 8 tho

[@aquarelasof]

@@Dexba This was a solid suggestion, they can function as a multichannel mixer too. I also highly recommend Meng Qi’s dual low pass gates, slim, no power, and they sound beautiful

[@Dexba]

@@aquarelasof I was exactly eyeing that too, since it will be a very long time before the 292t will become available (to get some "Buchla sound" in a pinch).
Because, obviously, I am gonna end up getting some VinCA in the future 😁

[@linewizard]

I have a morphagene, data bender and clouds. I don’t need an arbhar I don’t need and arbhar I don’t need an arbhar I don’t need an arbhar….

[@Dexba]

Maybe you don't need an Arbhar, but now you named them, I probably need a Morphagene, a Data Bender and a Clouds 😁
