You can download the patch here. FM? FM. Fm stands for Frequency Modulation. Invented by Mr John Chowning. Modulate a oscillator with another oscilator. magic happens! You know this ofcourse. I know this (hey i got a BA with honours in Music TEch) but anyways, its great. When is somebody gonna invent something new again? …

Patch a day challenge #11
You can download egregore here. You can download the patch here. Today I bring you 2 jams. The first is me having a blast with Egregore. An installation piece made in pure data entirely. It has a ridiculously cool sound and has all kinds of knobs to mess with. Its all very smart. Its also, …
Patch a day challenge #10
You can download the patch here. My colleague Pinar Temiz was talking up filterbanks yesterday, and after i heard it a bit i was sold. So today i had prepared a “filterbank” subpatch which is just 10 bandpass filters with the frequency rising with a ratio. so the [pd filterbank] object has 4 inlets. Audio …
Patch a day challenge #9
You can download the patch here. So yesterday i was messing around with the granular some more and I got somewhere. I noticed on my laptop though that it cannot really capture the video and still have enough CPU juice to keep the message rate consistent. Anyways, in the studio it worked better. around 40 …
Patch a day challenge #8
You can download the patch here. A continuation of yesterday’s “on the road” hybrid setup. Pure Data feeds Korg Monotron. And that gets recorded on Sony M10. Its also a continuation of the patch. Yesterday I really believed in this “drunk” granular model. However I found some flaws in the patch that I tried to …
Patch a day challenge #7
You can download the patch here. Ok so we were on a road trip. I brought an extra camera. because i did a hybrid setup. Pure Data going into Korg Monotron. And monotron going into Sony M10.

Patch a day challenge #5
You can download the patch here. Today’s jam takes some things we’ve seen before in 1-4, modulated feedback, randomization, wavetable oscillation and puts them together. Combining feedback with some randomization. The interesting bit about feedback stuff is that everytime you make them they turn out slightly differently. Today was more proof of that. It wasn’t …
Patch a day challenge #4
So yesterday got my thinking about using arrays sort of as wavetable synthesis, although I didn’t plan on making something as complicated as Shaun did. First up I added a write to sound function for the startup patch. Handy to record your jam. Proceeding with some basic vco modulation. But then randomization gets introduced and …
Patch a day challenge #3
So for #dspatchaday no3 I was kind of jamming during my lunch break. I wanted to use array’s and trumpet. So I start of by creating a recording setup and then have a small 2 second buffer that it reads through in various ways. forwards, backwards, with an sine instead of linear. then suddenly that …
