Great patching Sarah ! Incredible variety of sounds from the Buchla. Love it.
Thanks so much!
I am glad I found your TH-cam channel.
You are smart, articulate, and creative, when you talk about your music/art.
And you are using technology and techniques, that I am interested in, in ways I would not have thought of.
Shared this with my friend, who has a Buchla Easel.
Cool glitchy sounds, and like the stereo movement too.
Subscribed, and ordered a signed CD.
Best wishes for your continued success, looking forward to more content.
Thank you so much!
been following your IG for a while, just watching in amazement. such a nice find that you have a youtube where we can hear you talk about your ideas.
Great channel! Your Strega video brought me here, and that one was really, really good as well. And may I add, I think you have a great speaking voice - I am looking forward to checking out your other videos.
Love you 😭 Mind bending sounds! 🧠⚒️🔩🪛🔨🧬
Sounds incredible, nicely done
Awesome video. Love to see this kind of content - always felt Buchla was underrepresented on youtube.
Thank you!
The jam is really great, sounds spectacular.
thank you!
@@sarahbellereid 💜
thank you sooo much for your amazing and inspiring sounds & videos!
thank you for watching!
OMG that machine is beautiful 😭 nice sounds too
Wow this is truly great thank you sooooo much for this one ☝️
Your the best sarha no stopping you. Your a true electro soldier
Thank you so much! So happy you enjoyed it!!
Found you through a Hainbach video, what a surprise! You're doing great. Keep it up, Sarah! :)
Thank you! :)
Very interesting idea of using volume to trigger different granular configurations. That way the performer is kind of forced to think in terms of gestures instead of dryly pushing buttons to change a particular texture or initiate musical events. It also introduces an element of unpredictability.
I loved your eurorack presentation for Perfect Circuit, especially the "hands on" part. It helped me a lot in figuring out where I wanted to go with my own system.
Not only is all of this interesting, it's also a treat to listen to. MASS is an absolute banger, I bought it today. Big fan!
wow, sounds amazing !
I can’t believe that you didn’t smile through the entire creation / performance part of the vid. I would have been ear to ear because of all the bits of sonic joy coming from the system. Great stuff. Explored exactly the way Don Buchla intended!
Thank you!
if buchla is smart, they'll hire you. :-)
I can't imagine any timeline where that isn't a great idea.
insaningly crazy stuff and great sense of touch...
Thanks!
nice , now you got me thinking of buying one :)
Those are some good sounds.
Thank you :)
Great stuff !
Thank you!
Cool ideas for generative music!
Beautiful
Love you 😭 Mind bending sounds !🧠 ⚒️🔩🪛 🔨🧬
Great!
Very well done!
It would be interesting to double your Max patch so that you could have two of these patterns interplay with each other. Maybe have the choice of which one you like better to keep with your next input. This could be pretty fun to improvise along with.
Nice
You had me at glitching.
We built that capture engine in the kyma Kata last week! It’s so much fun, I like the additional effects in SBR’s patch especially the delay reverb. Great vid!!
@@smuff73 Simon my friend, how cool! Just to be sure you built a similar sound in Kyma, or this exact one in MAX?
@@SpectralEvolver sorry, I mean we built the level dependent buffer / memory writer capture part in Kyma. It was mostly Alan @Orsheboo but it’s useful as SBR demonstrates. I hacked it to use with my Myo armbands as you will see soon!!!
I would like to try the same technique with spectral centroid based capture as well now I think of it!
amazing machine as the Korg micromodular that i own Sarah Belle Reid
Awesome stuff! Your videos keep getting better and better.
Not totally related, but the MIGSI site says the project is open source, yet I can't find the code anywhere!
Is it up somewhere, or did you decide not to make it open source?
Thanks so much!
The MIGSI project has undergone some really significant changes over the last year so there’s nothing up currently in that regard, but hopefully as time allows we will be able to get back to it :)
Nice .....
I'd love a video of this synth without the software aspect. It was tough to tell is the sequencer on the 208 was doing any of the looping of if it was all software.
After you return the Easel, maybe try an Make Noise O-Coast, or Korg Volca Drum.
I get some crazy cool, weird noises out of them.
I can imagine, you would make them sing.
Great suggestions, thanks!
lmao return the easel? You're outta your mind!
Let me ask, have you worked with Serge synths much?
Yes I have! Serge synths were actually the very first format of synth I ever played :)
@@sarahbellereid Wow! That's cool. I've only been doing modular for about a year. Seems like I keep coming back to the Serge/Buchla when looking at other people's synths.
Can you add frequency threshold triggers in max?
do you have any patch ideas for a eurorack system with the 2hp freez to do that grab and freez idea
like, if the 2hp freez was always on, unless it has cv go thru it to turn it off
im not sure, all of my attempts so far have not worked, i thought about switching the polarity and using that to trigger when im not playing but it didnt work
i also have the qubit data bender which is pretty amazing
Try going from your sound source into a vca, then sending a mult of the out to an offset, and the other multed vca signal into your mixer/out etc. You can then send the offsetted signal to the freez so that if the vca gets over a specific volume, there will be voltage sent into the freez. Just a hypothetical, as I haven’t the gear to try it on lol
@@charlesdilks3267 I will give that a shot
I've tried a similar approach but not with that exact path
I dig it
Thank you
@@daneguitarist1 Let me know if it works out! I’m invested personally now lol
Have you ever utilized the Cards in the blue horizontal 'Stored Program Soundsource' ? Do they come already made or do you create them? I use them in Erica
Synths "Pico System III" desktop
Modular Box. Are you familiar with this piece of gear? It's great
fun as you have 5 readymade Cards which are used in the same way that Buchla created the Blue 'Stored Program Soundsource' on his Boxes/Machines. Pico III has a Blue Slot. Also comes with 5 blank Cards so we can create our own Soundworks and play them in that Blue Slot! I've been teaching myself & learning (about 8 months now) Modular Synthesis so I haven't a clue how
to make/patch a Card....I need to find a class on soldering and putting together a Module from a DIY kit. So I just use the readymade Cards then create my
own patches on the Pico III Desktop. Enjoyed your talk and playing of the Buchla. 💡🐒🎹🤙
I haven’t used them, no! But it sounds fascinating and like a lot of fun - definitely something I’d love to explore further.
Does it make any nice sounds? 😱
is there a particular reason the panel uses "lo" instead of "low"??
As far as I know, Buchla has always spelled lo pass gates that way!
Looks like youve been tripping pretty hard towards the end xD
You are my #1 favorite synth demo person, Sarah. If I was born female, my parents were going to name me Sarah. You actually look a lot like you could be my daughter! Something about your lovely face, and I've never felt like that before. Keep making wonderful synth demos!
how can i get this max/MSP patch ?
I shared a reduced version (the glitch sampler part) of this patch and a tutorial on it on my Patreon page :)
