Jam 205
Hexmix as a mixing powerhouse and Arbhar for atmospheric sounds
A new Jam ! It’s been a long time since I had recorded anything. Hope you like it.
As you can hear, the musical/party side was not the most important. It can be improved a lot. (note to myself: find another camera angle to not have my belly as the main protagonist.)
This Jam had two purposes:
- Test the new Befaco Hexmix system as my main mixing solution.
- Use the Instruo Arbhar to create a bed sound to fill the space and have some sort of safety net in the interludes.
I’m very happy with the result on the technical side. The Hexmix does a really good job. I love those temporary switches. And the PFL helps me to identify:
- which samples I’m going to load in the Squid Salmple
- which algorithm is selected on Plaits (and what sound sound it produce)
- what sounds will play Radio Music
The Arbhar is used as an effect. I use the « Aux » to send sounds and create atmospheric background sound. It works very well. I only need a way to clear Arbhar’s buffer when I need. I can try different things like:
- Set the density of the grains to 0
- Use the follow mode
- Use a sawtooth wave and an « end of fall » trigger to control the capture
So, there is still a lot to improve and explore. That’s what’s great about Eurorack. Your system is always evolving.
