Ambient Berlin School, Remembering Earth, Korg Wavestate

This is a relaxing Ambient Berlin School jam with live sound design recorded in one take using the Korg Wavestate synthesizer. The jam is based on a four layer custom patch. Three layers of basic melodic themes are built up live from three arpeggiators, and the notes, rhythm and timbres are modified by the Wavestate's wave sequences, turning basic melodies into something more complex and evolving. The fourth layer is a typical Wavestate pad, cycling through different wavesamples.
The patch is a part of the "Berlin School and Ambient Construction Kit Vol 3" soundbank available for purchase here: waveformer.gum...
Wavestate performance mod knobs:
Knob 1: Layer A (arp melody 1) Octave
Knob 2: Layer B (arp bass) Octave
Knob 3: Layer C (pad) Octave
Knob 4: Layer D (arp melody 2) Octave
Knob 5: Layer A (arp melody 1) Amp Level
Knob 6: Layer B (arp bass) Amp Level
Knob 7: Layer C (pad) Amp Level
Knob 8: Layer D (arp melody 2) Amp Level
Joystick X changes the Filter and Amp Envelope Decay for Layer A (arp melody 1).
Joystick Y changes the Filter and Amp Envelope Decay for Layer D (arp melody 2).
ModWheel lowers Filter Envelope Intensity for Layer A and Layer D, making them softer.
The audio is recorded to SD card on a Bluebox mixer/recorder and normalized in Audacity. Video is recorded on a Canon EOS M50 mk2 with the included EF-M 15-45mm lens. Audio and video is synchronized in DaVinci Resolve 18 (free version).

Best patches by far and at a great price of $9/ volume. You won't find any others so complex with the functions all set out across the knobs.

[@KosmicKitchen]

You put some quality time into this work and it shows.

Waveformer, your a magician, I love you so much ! 🙏💜⭐️

[@Waveformer]

Thank you so much for all your positive feedback. It means a lot to me. 😊🎶

[@Raku777]

Thanks for sharing. I like how you share your creative process and do a wonderful composition at the same time (no mistakes!). It is very Berlin School and reminds me a lot of Tangerine Dream. We need to find a way of getting more views for the emerging Ambient Trance community on KZbin! I would recommend people who like what you do to hit a like and subscribe so that the search engines make these wonderful compositions cycle through them more often.

Bravo , bravissimo , PERFETTO! 🙏👍

[@Waveformer]

Molte grazie 😊

[@SynthoidSounds]

Very nicely done. Your excellent demo creations are what convinced me to actually get a WaveState . . . now I just have to learn how to actually use this (gasp). Of course, I'll be revisiting your videos (and patches) to learn these techniques, and unravel the mysteries of the WS. Many thanks for posting these.

[@nouvelAbstrait]

[@derekcook3166]

Sounds great

[@rayderrich]

Watching your videos is so bad for my budget, but so great for my mood. Thank you!

[@Waveformer]

Glad you enjoy them :-). I think you’re doing great with the synths you have. The summit sounds wonderful! I could learn a thing or two about speedy sound design from you - having spent over a year tweaking this last soundbank of mine 🐌🎛️🎶

[@rayderrich]

@@Waveformer Well to be fair the Novation Summit is extremely hands-on so very fast on the sound design front. I understand the WaveState needs some more love to sound so awesome.

[@makarocket]

awesomely beautiful, thanks for the inspiration, you are the nmaster of programming this i have a long way to go to catch up to you! only got my Wavestate a month ago! Bravo 🙂

[@Whistler-007]
