Live: Netaudio Megarave@Ginglik, London

See you there hopefully!

DIY Flux Capacitor Expander


This demonstration uses my crude DIY flux capacitor for the Livewire AFG, basically 5 switches and 10 jacks corresponding to the flux cap pins. Two pin pairs are attenuated by two VCA's controlled by the makenoise/wiard wogglebug, crosspatched with the malekko/wiard noisering, which drives the melodic noodling, via a A-189-1 used as a bitcrusher, to perform cheap quantizing.
The sine output is sent to an input of a makenoise QMMG, driven by the A-143-1 envelope. About halfways through, a feedback path from the animated pulses, animated by A-143-1 LFOs, into the A-106-6 xpander filter (wogglebug controlled) goes into one of the pins on the flux cap expander, resulting in strange noises and unpredictable inharmonic distortion.

Next up is a quite complex patch, demonstrating some weird possibilities open up by having access to the individual pins of the AFG flux capacitor pins. All the AFG outputs are sent to the A-152 for switching, then into a f(h) plague bearer and after that routed into flux cap expander. At the same time, a pair of flux cap pins are sent into another f(h) plauge bearer. Everything is controlled by a Wogglebug/Noisering crosspatch quantized by a A-189-1 bitcrusher.

You're listening to the currently selected waveform from the A-152. This creates highly unpredictable noises, ringings and well... listen for yourself!

Don't try this if you're not certain about what you're doing, you might destroy your AFG!

Exploring M4L & The Finger: Ax34 Suimle

Ax34 Suimle by Veqtor
First audio demo/track using Ableton Live with the Max 4 Live Beta and Tim Exile's The Finger. All control data is generated through different infinity-row generator max devices. One drum track, manipulated by two instances of The Finger. And two instrumental tracks, notes are infinity row again, one instance of The Finger on each. Loads of filtering and dynamics processing, controlled by M4L LFOs. I love this kind of over-the-top complex processing.
This track will be released on Fools Forest.

The Bugglering Noisewog Convention

Something weird this way comes...
The Bugglering Noisewog Convention by Veqtor
Completely generative analog modular patch centered around a Malekko Noisering being interrogated by a Makenoise Wogglebug. Sound is generated by a Livewire AFG and a Tiptop Z3000, filtered through a Makenoise QMMG, Doepfer A-106-6 and A-106-1. Output is destroyed (enhanced) by a circuit-bent easyface DIY variant. Nothing was tweaked during recording. Some dynamics post processing has been made.

FREE: Retrospective EP - Out Now!

I'm very proud to announce the release of Retrospective EP, released by The Centrifuge, home of prestigious drill n' bass artists Neutek, Gasman, Mark Swift, Gareth Clarke and many more!
"An action packed bumper 8-track EP from Sweden's Veqtor, curator of the OXO-Unlimited netlabel and all round hardware/software demon. The release twists and turns between melodic junglism, max/msp-fuelled glitch explorations and a dirty, dub techno vibe."
Tracklisting:
  1. Tanuki Jingle
  2. 3-Aulien Caexf-9
  3. Pecking F-Key
  4. Kickuchi and Retort
  5. Room 431
  6. Computers Will Inherit The Earth
  7. Snowflakes
  8. Retrospective

Drifting Acid

Recorded a crazy jam session which came to be due to the arrival of my new makenoise QMMG, see the soundcloud page for more info...
