Awesome jam….love it well done. This is exactly what I aspire to. Got me subbed and looking forward to future works

[@youdefect]

Thanks! Been a little dry with uploads lately, but I've got some plans for future videos and I'll try to get more stuff out there :)

[@nanomancer]

[@knightforlorn6731]

I like flashing lights and noises. yay. Haha seriously though this is dope.

[@fabricelagrue]

awesome !!!! wow

[@banksideleopards2791]

Really cool, I just get the SSF ultra perc and i love it man. What is the controller on your right hand?

[@youdefect]

Thanks! That's a Faderfox PC4, so basically a midi controller that I use to add effects.

Nice avatar.

[@mit136speichenumdiewelt]

Very cool performance. I'm interesting how you use the Faderfox?

[@youdefect]

Thanks! Out of the 6 rows of knobs on the Faderfox, each row is mapped to a specific thing/channel. Three of the rows (one for each channel recorded from the modular) are mapped delay, reverb, distortion and a DJ filter within Ableton. Two rows change parameters for drums and drum sample selection. Bottom row is effects for the master channel to help with breakdowns and build-ups. It's a work in progress and I change the mappings quite regularly.

[@mit136speichenumdiewelt]

@@youdefect you very much for the detail information. So that's all Ableton if i understood you right?

[@youdefect]

Yes, drums and effects all come from Ableton.

[@mit136speichenumdiewelt]

Thanks!

[@semarugaijin9451]

This is wild! : O What kind of rig is this?>

[@youdefect]

Thanks! This is sort of a percussion and weird noise / feedback rack. I'm triggering drums from Ableton and using the knobs on the Faderfox for mixing and effects. Everything's sequenced by the Torso T-1. The rack is constantly evolving and I'm still figuring out how get more variation and smoother transitions, but that's part of the fun :)

Hey have you tried natural gate? If so how come you prefer ssf lpg

[@youdefect]

Hey, no I haven't tried the natural gate yet. I'd love to have one some day, but I opted for the SSF lpg since it's quite a bit cheaper and you get a lot of different flavors from it with the FOLD/SAT/QAOS switch.

[@joeymc5272]

@@youdefect yeah I’m thinking about getting one because lot of people that I see that have natural gate tend to use their SSG more often so I wonder if that’s because there’s a lot more range with it? But I will say natural gate has the best sounding well natural LPG I have heard, especially for not having vactrols
