Reaktor Based Probability Engine
This is just a personal project, kind of my independent thesis statement on
controlled digital chaos. This is a patch I've been sculpting for the past few
months with Native Instruments' Reaktor. I apologize that there is alot of
"unseen" parts of this concotion, but I figure you can check out the previous
video (see below) for an idea of how this ensemble is layed out. Although,
there was just too many components here to be able to unfold and display
each device being used at any given moment, and obviously this isn't about
a pretty picture as much as it is about a roller coaster of potential with digital
audio. This was done without an external controller, aside from the QWERTY
config for the beatlookup module. There's way too many details to try and
give you a full tour of this ensemble, so just check out the mangling, and
feel free to ask whatever questions come to mind. Thanks for sitting through
the botches and buffer pops, had to use ye ol' soundblaster for the screencapture ;)
Also, the mstr clock was offset by a 1/4 note throughout the entire mix
(forgot to push stop before play ;P), so all the drops and pickups are a bit
weak, you'll notice the transients are offset in the beatlookup display when
it appears. and fyi, wear some headphones (not earbuds!!!!) if you don't have
decent reference monitors, i've recently found out that reaktor is incredible at
emulating tape saturation, as you'll find with the kick drums and the lowend
of the 303 module.
