1010music Nanobox Lemondrop & Piano | Winterdagen

Don't be fooled by its size, Nanobox Lemondrop by 1010music is a very deep little machine. It's a pocket sized granular synthesizer with a touch screen that can literally turn any sample into a rich and evolving soundscape. I've been making lots of patches on it lately and I figured I'd record a little piano improvisation over the top of one of the patches from today. Hope you like it!
Piano recorded with 2x Neumann KM184
Effects on the piano: Arturia Delay Tape-201 & Valhalla Vintage Verb
Mixed with Fabfilter Pro-Q, Pro C 2, Pro L 2 & Arturia Bus Force.

Thanks for sharing. It shows how a classical piano and a very modern granular synth can harmonize and make beautiful music, each bringing out the best of each other.

[@themarksman6953]

I come back and watch this video to enjoy the music from time to time. It's both haunting and beautiful.

[@Winterdagen]

Thank you very much :) That's a lovely compliment to start my morning to!

[@peterteipe]

I could enjoy a whole album of improvised and introspective pieces like this.

beautiful

[@tomgreenmusic]

Absolutely bloody beautiful!! And the way that piano is mic'd...so good

[@Winterdagen]

Thanks a lot Tom :)! Really quite happy with the current mic setup on the piano, glad you like it too! Feels so great to be able to record my piano nicely at any moment I like.

[@bobschrei2029]

Incredibly beautiful. I have a Lemon Drop but it hasn’t increased by ability to play the piano😀

[@Winterdagen]

Thanks a lot :) Haha well, it can definitely inspire some playing!

Thanks so much :)!

[@verdielg]

delicious...I ordered one and can't wait to explore. enjoyed this demo!

[@Winterdagen]

Thanks a lot! I'm sure you'll love the rabbit hole of creating sounds on this little beast, like I do as well.

[@verdielg]

@@Winterdagen Thanks. I have a tiny eurorack setup and picked up the lemondrop for some simple background ambient pad sounds but I know its capable of so much more and, honestly, can hardly wait to dig in🙂 Was actually wondering if you would mind doing a similar piece using the pianoinfinity preset on the drop solely.... Your style is absolutely wonderful and I'm a bit curious to see what the little guy's piano emulation would sound like with your style of play🙏

[@Winterdagen]

@@verdielg Awesome! I think Lemondrop would also be lovely as an effect / granular sampler for your modular. Ohh I haven't gone into the presets at all to be honest haha... I'm really not that much into presets, a big part of the fun is creating my own sounds. But I'll check out the pianoinfinity preset! Or maybe I'll create one myself that sounds true to the piano.

[@verdielg]

@@Winterdagen Yes, I hope to create some unique patches and effects with it for sure. I find modular really great at developing lead melodies but I usually get immersed in its generative patches. The granular mix should complement it well (if I do it right). Not surprised you haven't checked out any of the presets on the Lemondrop with that beautiful classic sitting in your studio. I probably wouldn't either if I were you 😊

[@boymakesmusic]

wow. now here was the lemondrop demo i needed to see :)

Sounds a little like Interstellar soundtrack..very nice indeed my friend!

[@Winterdagen]

Thanks a lot :)!

[@712Jefferson]

This is truly inspiring. How on earth did you make that evolving drone patch? Have been strongly gassing for a Lemondrop and if producing something like that is anywhere close to as easy as you make it seem, it's practically a must buy for ambient players. Sincere kudos.

[@Winterdagen]

Thanks a lot! what The way I like to work with Lemondrop is to just browse through stems of my music, and pick some nice sounds I already made to load in and completely change into something new. I think this one's a sawtooth pad from Polbyrute, strings from Spitfire and sub from the internal oscillator. It's super easy to get inspired and create sounds on this little thing! But as with all granular synths, because you're working with samles as the basic material, the outcome is highly dependent on the samples you put in.

[@712Jefferson]

@@Winterdagen Awesome, thanks for your feedback!

[@huubkoch]

Wederom fascinerend! 👍

[@Winterdagen]

Dankje, Huub!

[@shotsattwo941]

Very good indeed! As is the Lemondrop 🙂

[@Winterdagen]

Thanks a lot :-)! And the Lemondrop sure is indeed!

[@shotsattwo941]

@@Winterdagen I've just discovered it today and it's on the to buy list... So is the Polybrute. I'm so glad I've found your playing of the Polybrute... your style of music is is exactly the direction I'm heading to, and its great to hear it used in this context!

[@shotsattwo941]

And I really am enjoying your music. Its inspirational and the dream

[@Winterdagen]

@@shotsattwo941 That's great to hear! Polybrute is truly something special for sure :)

[@MrJackal43]

Very cool! Playing that tiny touch screen keyboard takes amazing focus to pull off live... kudos man! I couldn’t decide if I wanted the Fireball or Lemondrop. 🙏 I’ve made my decision!

[@Winterdagen]

Thanks a lot! Lemondrop really excells at textural pads, but is also really cool for rythmic stuff since you can tempo sync the grains :)

Большое спасибо :)

[@tendingtropic7778]

beautiful, the sound from the lemondrop, what kind of sample was that?

[@Winterdagen]

Thank you! If I remember correctly I have a Polybrute pad on one layer and some Spitfire strings on the other layer + some sine lows from the va oscillator.

[@TheBoestafari]

mooi!

Thanks :)!

Wauw, wat een combo, Microscosm zou ook hele mooie dingen met de piano kunnen doen!

Thanks! Microcosm gebruik ik ook vaak op piano inderdaad, heel erg fijne combi ook :)
