You decide. What I do know is that I've spent far too much time tweaking this ensemble. What I also know is that I'll be spending even more. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comThu, 28 Feb 2008 12:05:00 ESTnohttp://www.f7sound.com/podcasts.htmA step forward in processing audio. This is like show 109 (show 109 was the source audio), but where 109 had over a thousand edits, this show has none. That's right, this was all done live using the audio from DLC-109. I created the processor using Reaktor 5 and processing is all live and somewhat ramdom. No 2 performances are the same even if the same source audio is used. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comTue, 12 Feb 2008 11:25:00 ESTnohttp://www.f7sound.com/podcasts.htmYou'd think I like editing audio or something. Why? Well, if you saw the Pro Tools session for this podcast, you'd see ass loads of edits. But it's all about the sound.

I take 'the sounds in my head' clip and abuse it. Chop it up, move bits around, chop some more. Then cut it up and rearrange stuff again. Then play bit of it while recording to a CD. Then take that CD and scratch it up and re-record it. You get the picture. email: mike@regurgitron.com web: www.michaeloster.comMon, 5 Nov 2007 14:05:00 ESTnohttp://www.f7sound.com/podcasts.htmWhat a real ear-bender we've got today! Processed field recordings, glitchy Reaktor, and some mutant tape effects all for you. It reminds me of that tiny mosquito that followed me the other day. Annoying as hell.

At least that's how the tale goes. I purchased a strange, beat up orb from a flea market for 2 dollars. Opened it up and rewired it's guts. Now it's a musical instrument! Or so the tale goes, because it may be a software emulation.

All you have to do is replace the needle cartridge with a tape head. Then glue numerous strips of analog tape to a piece of cardboard.
