Organic Techno Waveform Recordings Torrent
Terresa Cherrie
-Recording room ambience on a recorder/phone, looping sections and importing it into a sampler
-Record other general through a recorder (I used drops of water going onto a hot cooker and sizzling recently)
-Plug an audio jack into your audio interface, crank it up and record some feedback, then pitch it and see what sounds good
-If you have a turntable, record the silence between the needle hitting the record and the actual track starting
I use noise primarily as sample via the Digitakt.
Having the samples loopable is important I think, so that you can trigger them from any position without it sounding choppy. This is especially important when having fast rhythmical 8th or 16th type noise bursts. Having each trigger start at a random position greatly reduces any resonances that might build up when triggering so quickly in succession. Things tend to feel frozen or artificially static if there is always exactly the same waveform repeating.
Having differnt kinds of spectral bands covered with different kinds of samples is useful too, broadband white noise is somewhat limited in its musical usefulness. The pitch parameter becomes very useful when using noise with a more narrow bandwidth.
Also quite like have a noise oscillator of some sort especially if it can fade between white noise and LSFR digital noise. Having that really low and modulated can work really well with the above tips.
Outside of samples of noise, I assume the original method is mixer background noise (ie. the noise that people try to have their mixer not make) and later extreme compression pulling the noise up. I shamefully admit that all my dub techno attempts sound 100% better once I record them and then add near 100% ott compressor to them.
The collection is divided down into 12 Ableton Live Racks, each with it's own set of 6 corresponding macros that control everything from rich piano overtones to analogue choruses, alternate waveform variations and a whole wealth of beautifully sculpted Ableton Live FX.
With the greatest flexibility in mind, we've individually created the most creative set of Ableton Instrument macros to compliment the original recordings ensuring each instrument is as expressive and malleable as possible.
12 Ableton Instrument Racks - Multi-sampled across multiple octaves including: 6 Macros per instrument: Including stereo reverbs, overtone control, Rhythmic control, granular delays, speaker emulation & more.
1. Roland Analogue - Optional combination of 4 analogue waveforms - Ideal for vast rich chord progressions and dense analogue pads.Macros allow mix between Fuzz Pad & Soft Pads offering huge flexibility.
5. Keys - Multi-sampled piano at low velocities. Noise, texture and emotion exposed to provide a gentler side to this beautiful stringed instrument. Macro control of harmonic overtones for added expression and brightness.
6. Koto - Multi-sampled and layered stringed instruments. Beautifully expressive with tones familiar to fans of Bonobo. 5th and octave delays offer truly unique and otherworldly overtones to match the oriental influences.
11.Textures - Manipulated location recordings - This group of textures is perfect for layering over pads, side chaining, macro shifting for textural build ups and so much more. We've also included a more Lo-Fi version in the 'Tape Textures' macro control.
