The immediacy and unpredictability of live music making is what draws me into making synth jams. In this jam I punch in a chord into the sequencer which triggers a patch with an arp on the Wavestate. Save move.
Then I try to loop a live Darabukka pattern, which goes well fortunately. This could easily go totally wrong. Just a little bit playing out of time and it won't groove.
In the middle of the jam I try to get a groovy synth pattern with the Bass Station 2 which totally isn't working well in the context of the music. After a bit of trying and seeing that it isn't working I decided to just move on. Also that arp pad sound I should have taken out soon after the intro.
This is where I am at with my jamming skills at the moment. Hit and miss and totaly not perfect but fun and exciting.
Check out my Bandcamp: heppening.bandcamp.com
Gear:
Oxi One (Sequencer - DIN midi to all synths)
Launchpad Pro MK3 (mute/unmute, mixing, filter)
Faderfox EC4 (for FX)
Korg Wavestate
Korg Opsix
Dreadbox Nymphes
Novation Bass Station 2
Novation Circuit Rhythm
Arturia Drumbrute Impact
Ableton for mixing, routing the audio to OBS studio and some stock FX.
