This is a live performance continuation of the video which covers how to use a function generator as a synthesizer. I wanted to show some performance suggestions and possibilities for how to get a Techno Trance track out of a small setup, played live.
Videos mentioned in the annotations:
Function Generator as a synth: youtu.be/9jx9bSu3ZI4
Rolling Techno Kick and Bass: youtu.be/pMt6LXksK3g
What if you don't have enough oscillators? You can use a function generator to create synth stabs, and if you have enough channels, you can create most of the voice using only a few modules. This video will teach you how to set up a patch for live minimalist techno. I'm using a Stilton Hammer sequencer, and the effects are an Eventide H9 for delay, and a Walrus Audio Slöer for reverb.
This is a live, improvised minimalist techno jam with annotations to help you learn and hopefully find some of your own ways to experiment. I'm using the 281t as two oscillators and two envelopes Maths as an envelope,, along with the Moog DFAM for kick and bass, the Soma Quantum Ocean for hi hats, the Intellijel Dixie II+ eurorack module for modulation, and the AJH Synth Mini Mod for melody.
