Analog Heat : Drum synthesis and sequencing

Elektron Gear Analog Heat
1

Feel free to post yours here !
Main idea is making drums with AH without other sources, or a rhythmical sequencing of audio.

AH audio only, nothing plugged, sequenced by OT with Control Changes
Envelope and lfo triggered by A4 via Control In 1, Footswitch mode (thanks to @qlamerand :wink:).
TRICK : a jack between OUT L > IN R, to add more noise. I added a compressor and normalized.


Same with a jack plugged (touching it), then a guitar.

One shot drums recorded and sequenced in OT. AH audio only.

Same, one sound pitched and played live with chromatic mode, quantized. Possibly a future hit, my best recording ! :smile:

Your guitar example is really good. Fourth one is good too.

Please do it. :wink:
You talked about AH having its own pseudo sequencer…:thinking:

There yo go! Nothing but AH. No controlling/sequencing from outside. Single take, one file.

Interesting. How do you do your “accents”?
Moving knobs or Trigger Threshold?

Im not sure, im just turning the knobs, almost all of them, but not the threashold one, nor attack and release.

Hey! AH is becoming my fav synthesis module :joy: So may possibilities!
Interestingly, AH opened my appetite for analog synthesis use and abuse.
Anyone knows any small analog module that i could abuse in similar ways? How good are Vermona Lancet, Doepfer DE or small Moog modules for happy abusings?

this is highly interesting, can you go a little into details about your workflow or do you even have a video of some of the steps you are doing @sezare56?

congratulations!

edit: of course the sound posted by @Castor is also pretty intense! would be great to hear about your workflow, too!

No enough time for the moment, but basically

OT midi OUT (Control Changes + Clock) > AH
AH midi THRU > A4
A4 CV out (S-Trig 3V) > AH Control IN (Footswitch mode, ENV TRIG destination)

Control Changes used :

Today i experimented with the self oscillation of the AH mk2 and it really got BUCHLA!

  1. take a midi cable
  2. plug it in your daw
  3. check the midi implementation chart of the AH
  4. Start sending Envellopes to the right elements!
  5. The Low Frequency Oscillator is really insane.

Ill post A.s.a.p. some sound samples.

first attempts, but i think this can get much more refined and playable.

The last one sounds like R2D2 on low batteries!
