Csound-based tools. So much for the percussion. The
other more distant
instrumental sounds are taken from another piece - a trio for flute,
horn, and bassoon - that received similar treatment.
Btw, all the sounds in this piece are originally from the 8mbgmsfx.sf2
ok, so just to be sure, there is no real instrument
in there? No real flute, horn, bassoon, whatever
recorded with a microphone?
I ask because at home I plan to make some music
once the little ua1ex has arrived.
I will do voice/guitar/(sort of) bass with real
instruments. For drums I plan to code a tool so
that I can record myself with two microphones and
use it as some kind of "analog midi" controller.
I don't have a drumkit and I guess my neighbors are
happy that I don't. I wrote a "virtual drum machine"
a few years ago but I don't know, I want the real
thing, play by moving my body instead of writing
files. (I could just get a drumkit, but neighbors
are a real issue here.)
The computer has also a little camera. Maybe I'll
use that to control music with my body in the air
(like wearing red gloves for easy detection or I
don't know) and I was wondering if I could have
other more or less realistic instruments (I think
about cello, which I like a lot) that I could control
that way.
So if you say that all the sounds in your piece
are artificial, that pushes me to explore these
areas.
Anyway, enough noise.
Thanks for sharing cool music and happy music!
