I'm starting to enjoy glitchy percussion sounds I'm hearing in a lot of computer
music these days, and want to experiment with those.
I've asked around about how people are making these sounds, and the answers I get are
"Battery", "Redrum", and "Reason". All firmly wedged closed
and proprietary. of course.
Are there any good free tools for making glitchy drum sounds, which do not require the use
of WINE? If the answer to that is "SC/CSound/PD/ChucK", that's fantastic,
can anyone point me to some particularly good source code or patches for glitchy drums in
those languages that I could start experimenting with?
Thanks.

Me to :-)
I found some wonderful sounds coming out of fastbreeder, although you
have to be a little patient. If you catch it on the right foot, it will
sound like your computer is blowing up.
You can save the sounds as lisp or something like that, but I simply
sample everything I like for each session.

I have not tried this yet, but it's something i've thought about. I'm
not sure what you mean by "glitchy" exactly. Actual glitches (a
scratched CD), and things I've heard in glitchy music would probably
sound like sample-stuttering and also that percussive clip you get by
not enveloping sounds that are like, maybe 5 to 200ms(?) long. Both
would be doable in PD.
But one possibility would be to collect low cost keyboards and then
sample the drum loops / sounds and then mess with them in the
environment of your choosing. Obviously if you needed a certain
reproducible sound you could record an improv on say, a snare sound, and
then slice up that for sequencing the parts later.
Furthermore, you could go into circuit bending the boards before you
record them.

You'd be surprised what you can do in specimen just with pitch scaling
and setting various envelopes...

Listen to some of the examples and see if this suits. Noisy and
808/909 are probably what you are looking for.

There's currently a "Free idm/glitch drum samples" thread on electronic
music 411 with some links to glitchy percussion sounds:
http://www.em411.com/forum/4000/1//Free_idmglitch_drum_samples.html
Every time you mess up your Alsa Modular Synth/Ingen/Csound/SC/... synth
patches and your only getting some strange clicks or noises: Sample
those sounds, use some LADSPA effects to amplify, distort, filter, pitch
shift, etc. them and you got your very own glitchy samples.
Another approach is to paint some waves by yourself. I think you can do
that in Audacity with waveform max zoomed in and in the sample editors
of trackers like Fasttracker2 or Milkytracker
(http://www.milkytracker.net).
There's also the BBCut2 library for Supercollider
(http://www.cus.cam.ac.uk/~nc272/bbcut2.html) and the bbcutm/bbcuts
opcodes for Csound (http://www.csounds.com/manual/html/bbcuts.html).

I attached a simple Pd patch, which can be used to explore glitchy
sounds created from playing short sections of a sample with a short
volume envelope, that doesn't ramp, but jumps to 1 on attack. Not
ramping will automatically generate that clicky sound. Additionally a
simple "tanh-like" distortion is applied to the sound.
Just try loading any sample (44.1kHz, wav/aiff) you have on your disk
and play with the toggles. The "randomize-start" toggle switches
selecting a random start point in the sample.
If you have found a nice glitchy sound, you can export it to a file
with the "record" message. Remember to switch off the randomization
before recording, otherwise you will not record the previous segment,
but a new one.
Ciao

frank, this patch sounds great with some random glass breaking samples I
have sitting around! I think I'm going to use it with a piece I'm working
on...
cheers,

I put a snare sound through it and had a good bit of fun listening to it take an Elvin
Jones-sounding "solo" in randomize mode. Actually with the distortion it sounded
more like the beginning of Billy Cobham's "Spectrum".
It sounded also a bit like the PD patch "Jazz Drum Box", which looks like it
uses a similar technique.

Soon I will release the software synthesizer Minicomputer, which offers
8 different monophonic, rather glitchy synths which makes it good as a
drum synth.
It follows my tradition of strange, non emulating softwaresynths, I did
once a shareware VSTi called Microcomputer.
It survived already one laptop concert in combination with SEQ24 and
live keyboard last week but I still have to do some work before
releasing it.
Cheers,
Malte
