Instruōctional Live: Modular Meets Leeds 2022 // Instruo Eurorack Workshop on Performance Patching

Following an amazing performance the night before here we have Jason H. J. Lim on Instruo giving a live Instruōctional (Instruo, instructional, clever word play) workshop breaking down the performance patches and systems he’s put together to perform with. Jason breaks down the sampling, looping and approaches to mangling breakbeats, modular layout needs to create physically performable tonal and harmonic chord changes, cable play, granular scatters, playing with chance live and manipulating reverb throws and freezes. It’s packed with tips and tricks, many of which I’ll be trying out myself.

[@RobinRimbaudScanner]

Fascinating presentation! I'm certain that drum techs around the world are now gasping in shock at the speed at which Jason sets up mics for the kit too!

[@DivKid]

Highly impressive all round, from the super speed drum mic technique to the end result :)

[@RobinRimbaudScanner]

@@DivKid Some truly phenomenal elements to that live set. He's one impressive human being!

[@KeithCanisius]

His music is really good. He should do some releases if he hasn't already?

[@NutritionalZero]

Holy fucking shit

[@chitlun]

Where can I find out more info on the Modular Meets? I’d love to attend one… Edit: Just found it… However, is there a mailing list I can join as I don’t use Facebook.

[@DivKid]

There's Instagram and Facebook but that's about it for now. We do post onto some forums etc but we don't currently hold a mailing list. The next event from us is Modular Meets Leeds 2023 which is August 19th and 20th at Belgrave Music Hall in Leeds (same as usual). We may do something else before hand but no currently plans.

[@chitlun]

@@DivKid Cheers man, I’ll make sure I get those dates in t’ calendar. Not been to t’ Belgrave in an age either… Top place like!

[@DivKid]

Yeah great food and drink, fantastic stage and PA system, rooftop terrace and bar. Great place for us to host the annual event.

[@chitlun]

@@DivKid You a Leeds lad then? You sound West Yorkshire at least.

[@DivKid]

Bradford, so very close.

Normalled comment.

half normalled comment

[@Satwamassive]

Is it also possible to make music with these machines?

[@bwest6275]

You miss the point of this performance.

[@coquinati_music]

Yea it’s possible to make a more tonal and a more standard music!

[@drphiI]

Coming from a cut-up noise background, having made use of many a joystick and arcade button signal splitter, the idea of using a handheld box to control my patch makes me want to vomit from excitement. I mean this in the best way possible.

[@LordHando]

let me get a refund for the harmonaig. Shit is wonky

[@DivKid]

and you think a comment on a video on a channel that's not Instruo is going to make a refund happen? If you're having issues (what are they?) use the Instruo website and use the contact to speak to their support. They'll be helpful.

[@LordHando]

@@DivKid Oh sorry, let me rephrase myself. (ahem) Let me get a refund m8, u wot m8? U wot m8? Oi.

[@DivKid]

hahaha ey ey ey ey ey m8, listen, m8, come on m8 :D
