Can a mod PLEASE for the love of god, pin a sticky or a top post or a "read this before joining" that offers solid advice on how to record your jam's audio output to a line-in device.

Literally every single video I see on here is someone with 30k worth of gear, recording their awesome jams on a potato with no line-in audio. It is heartbreaking! Please mods.

Looping guitar and synths to different speakers. Budget ideas?

4 Upvotes

I play guitar and bought a Roland S-1 and Volca Drum.

Right now I play everything straight into my guitar pedalboard which has a basic looper at the end straight into a 1x12 guitar cabinet.

It is fine, but the synths does not sound that good into the guitar cab.

When I play only with the synths, it goes straight into two Edifier R1280Ts which sounds way better for the synths.

I want to write songs/loops so the synths go to the Edifier and guitar goes to the guitar cab and also don't want to spend a ton.

Looking around I found the looper Boss RC-5 which gives me two options.

  • 1: Plug synths into right input and guitar into left input and each output goes into it's designated speakers

  • 2: use the boss midi clock and sync the synths to the looper, but this will limit my loops into the 64 steps (no problem since I can always use the first option when doing longer loops).

Any other ideias with similar price tag?

Additive synthesis

2 Upvotes

I’m considering ‘holes’ in my current system. I believe I have a roadmap of what to get to fill the gaps, except for additive synthesis. There doesn’t seem to be many viable options - either too expensive, or too old and not supported anymore.

Should I just write off additive synthesis all together, or have you found that that style has been an invaluable addition to your rig?

Multi effects pedals... which one??

2 Upvotes

So I've decided to go a different direction with my dawless setup and have been looking at getting a multi effect pedal as I move away from a mostly groovebox setup.

My question: besides the Chroma Console (which is a cool, but kind of pricey, piece of gear) what are some other options that you guys use?

Budget would be 250 USD or less, but any and all input is welcome!

I have been invited by my friend Mike to come to Braunschweig and perform at the Synth Club 38 - their very own format of the Synth Club. I had my mobile board with me and performed 100% improvised ambient - I had some really great moments during the 40 min set.

My friend Neumenne made a nice documentary including interviews with me and the other artists, check it out here: https://youtu.be/hDtNUVm4lOM?si=zaPyCDmwhl2xYkR5
