For years I did want to learn Max/MSP but I did not have the courage.

I finally jumped after rewatching Sean Booth's AMA a few months ago and I'm having a great time ! This is the first part of the sequencer I want to cook to at some point perform and improvise with it.

I will document the process here and I'm thinking about making a blog. Welcome.

Anyone got experience using a midi pad controller in ? i'm looking to buy my first ever pad controller for drumming out beats; I'm leaning towards the Novation Launchpad X, but I can't tell if the hardware is inexorably tied to Ableton Live's feature set or not.

I'd like to eventually use the pad controller for a hardware setup, too. Any suggestions welcome.

Monday evening noodling in ; a MusicThing Modular Turing Machine drives two oscillator voices lightly modulated, and also drives some simple sample drum machines for a basic generative rhythm. Fun stuff! I can definitely see the appeal of the Turing Machine now.

The meetup was a rousing success. We not only managed to sync up hardware, but also and for an impromptu jam session. And I made my streaming debut! You can hear our jam session here: youtu.be/ck1XPJxIOI4 the video is just my face puzzling over a laptop. Focus on the audio :)

I am somehow even more excited about this hobby than I was before. I may vibrate out of existence.

The was yesterday and as a surprise, one of the attendees let me borrow his Behringer Neutron semi-modular analog synthesizer. After a bit of clueless prodding I got sound!

This is way more satisfying than making sounds on a computer. I am finding lately that the prospect of doing creative work at a computer after being on computers all day is daunting. This is letting me truly "play" in the childlike wonder sense again.

Another great meeting of the yesterday! We definitely got more into jamming together this time around. Everyone was making some fun sounds. Can't wait to jam some more next month!

excerpt from a live stream I did on . I called this piece "No MIDI" because... I'm not using MIDI. stuff drifts out of tune gradually but It's fun to work with!
.
Technical note : One interesting feature is I duplicated the envelope controlling the amplitude of the main melody, then inverted the voltage, and use that to attenuate the LFO that controls the FM. The result is that when notes first start, there is no vibrato, but as notes go on longer, they gradually get more vibrato. It kind of makes that filtered square wave with pulse width modulation kind of sound like a violin.
.
It turned out more then I expected.

The next meeting for the ( ) is Saturday, April 29th, from 4pm-6pm, at the Ann Arbor Downtown Library's 3rd floor Freespace room!

This group is newbie friendly for those of us interested in modular synthesis. Come bring your laptops/synths/questions, or just show up and stare as we make bleeps and bloops together. There are no stupid modular questions!
