I was working on the layout for my two men live act and since we are planning on something with a huge amount od interdependancy and interactions I came up with a 3d layout so it will be easier to visualize what is happening regarding audio, midi and we can indefinitely move things around, connections will remain…
I tried to make each piece as immediately identifiable as possible…Not everything is here and not everything will make it through in the end…Some are more obvious that other for sure…
Elektron Maschinedrum, Octatrack, Analog 4, Rthm
Nord Modular G2, Arturia Medusa, Nord Modular Micro
…last row: ipad, Akai Midi controller, Squarp Pyramid and Expression E touch
Haha, Nice guess but the thru5 is the winner. Peak is here, so is bomebox. I’ll update the picture with some more. Noone has got this black/white/blue utility boxes ?
Since we are making really heavy cross modulations in our tracks we’re trying to massively reduce what we need for playing live. We are trying to keep the ideas of the tracks while relying on actually playing a maximum of elements.
Things will probably look like this :
Pyramid as master clock. Calling back home everyone when needed by having fixed sequences corresponding to key points of the set…Between those it will be free rolling…
G2 : 1 Slot of midi mangling and midi generation on the fly. 1 for fm percussion. 1 Slot for “signature synth”
1 free slot for synth, or dsp.
Keyboard playing itself and peak.
AK : realtime percussion, drones, audio FX.
Keyboard playing itself and peak
OT : 3 solts for specific long stems. 1 Beat slot.
3 Flex playing realtime recorded buffers.
Master track.
BomeBox : Midi filtering, dispatch, counters, events storage. message conversion ( esp notes to pc )
Touché : to AK
Goliath : To G2
Ipad : lemur template for monitoring. Eventually granular processing.
Everything goes to an xr18. Eq,compression,limiting is done here.
Sends go to eventide space,G2,octa,ak.
