the watmm GAS thread

[Guest Chesney]

Never tried to record over USB, I dunno, it sounds wrong ha. I know it's all the same, electrical signals sent over metal connections but audio over USB seems cheap *snooty audio twat*

[modey]

lol wut? It's an AD converter, how else do you get audio into the digital domain?

[xox]

lol sorry. I was teasing some folks in Discord too. The WAV is literally half an hour long tho, it would be rude for me to not at least edit out all the deafening screeches first.

 

we need to hear this asap

[modey]

yeah pls upload, I love longform jammy noise stuff

I know modey, ridiculous haha. It's just my mind being twattish, it's all the same regardless. Thunderbolt is just the same and everything gets to my computer that way. USB just feels flimsy so It can't handle all that precious audio can it? ;)

 

I hope you read this in the way i'm putting it across, I don't want to be branded a weirdo (on an IDM forum :s)

this sounds fantastic! i'm hearing a lot of familiar sounds & effect tricks, but it's all been given a whole new character by the dude mixer. everything has been given more body, impact, and kind of a rich burbly distorted edge that sounds great.

Thank you! Yes, this little thing is great. So simple but weirdly addictive and it brings it all together more than other mobile mixers I've used.

Thank you! Yeah that's part of what I like about keeping it loose with this cheap stuff, feels like you could get away with anything.

 

That's it except it was recorded on the Zoom H1 and it was definitely hot enough to clip at that stage. The Zoom is pretty nasty when it clips. Also I converted from stereo 24 bit to mono 8 bit because I figured there wasn't any more audio information than that lol. That may have imparted a bit of flavor.

 

I think those 2 pieces sound better than people give them credit for. That and I lent my buddy the PO12 for a couple weeks and he just gave it back. That was the first jam I've had with it since, so it was kind of a romp with an old flame... heh heh... :)

i wanted that thing so badly but didn't had the money (599 euros incl. vat on thomann!!!) so i've bought the zoom ms70cdr :( ...which is still ok; 137 plug-ins for 95 euros :)

I am excited, that's for sure. Those Zoom pedals are a damn fine value for the money

[xox]

i have been planning to buy the geiger counter but i said to myself today, let's see if there's something else/more interesting on the market that i could use, like a filter unit with overdrive/distortion and i've found out about 74.000 filtering effect units and pedals (now i'm a fakn expert on filter pedals/units  ​ ) but only few of them can overdrive the signal and out of those i've isolated 3 that seems interesting enough and are within my budget: 

 

dreadbox epsilon - 231 euros

 

 

 

waldorf 2-pole - 209 euros

 

 

 

vermona filter lancet - 359 euros (barely in my budget )

 

 

 

 

anybody has experience with any of these units? (google offers zero answers about direct comparison) help me! save me from the geiger counter

 

p.s.

 

wtf is this?! 800 dollars! ...and i want it :)

Did you check out the Sherman Filterbank?

[TubularCorporation]

They're not that popular and probably not what you're after but the Akai MFC42 can do some stuff.  Pre and post filter gain for driving it, plus a separate overdrive. I wouldn't call it warm but it' pretty useful. I think they've gotten expensive though,

[TubularCorporation]

This is a pretty good rundown of the MFC42's features in its natural habitat (filter house).

 

He does miss a few things like the L/R phase control on the stereo channel and inverse linking the mono and stereo filters' cutoffs for effects like modulated crossover and stuff., but he gets almost everything.  Leave the annotations on!

I just bought the Waldorf. In my brief time messing with it so far I've been pretty impressed with the range of sounds I can get. The overdrive is quite intense. Only thing is the knobs seem a bit flimsy and I'm hoping that won't become a problem with large amounts of use.

Elektron Heat is amazing. The sherman is mindblowing and WAS really popular. Still very relevant.
