Info[edit]

The Satellite Of Love is a livestream performance of one or two hours of continuous music and soundscape synchronized by Ableton Link, Midi and Din Clock. Each section should blend from the preceding section.

The Livestream is divided into sections of 10 minutes. A participant may have one of more slots allotted either as a solo or a jam project.

A participant will probably want to provide 20% to 50% new material for their slot if regular. This could be as little as 5 minutes of material each month.

A participant that does not compose or produce may wish to rehearse and partake in the jamming sections.

This is an electronic event. There is a 24 channel digital mixer.

Before hand, we'll chat with the participant about what they might bring and how they will set up.

The Mother32 has a midi in permanently connected to the MIO (see above) . So it can be used to convert midi to the WaveyLines Eurorack and/or guests.

Ableton Live[edit]

AudioModern LoopMix[edit]

https://audiomodern.com/shop/plugins/loopmix/

Standalone or VST. This is akin to six sample players via 6 trancegates except each of the trance gates is aware of the other. The Loopmix player will cut up each of the samples and decide which sections to play and which to mute, these decisions can be temporary, semi random, controlled and very music creating and endless stream of variations for Beats but also for pure create use of whatever material one throws at it.

Secondary Processors[edit]

Glompler[edit]

A Glitch rompler designed inhouse currenlty in VCVrack format. Uses 4 pairs of sample player. Each pair of players has a single step sequencer which has 3 states off, sample player A or Sampler player B. Each sequencer lenght oscilates from 1 to 16 steps via an LFO. The speed of each sample p[layer is controlled by CV.

Berna 3[edit]

4 Loopers and numerous modules recreating the test equipment of the 50s in a standalone DAW by Georgio

Gleetchlab2021[edit]

A modern counterpart to Berna3. 6 loopers and a multitude of glitch moduules in a standalone DAW by Georgio

Lore[edit]

One looper: A Muisique Concrete Workstaion in a standalone DAW or VST plugin by Micah at Puremagnetik.

Sources[edit]

Sources can either be prerendered to wavs and triggered in Ableton or if there is a spare laptop and soundcard, performed live.

Reason[edit]

I've gone to a kind of extreme with ReasonVST inside Live. I fill a rack with devices, each has it's own sequencer. No automation in Ableton. Use Reason LFOs, and mouse to control volumes in the reason mixer etc.Record a set in Ableton. Repeat. So tyhe Ablton file mainly acts as a wrapper holding let's say 20 wave file mixdowns of the rack. A new ablton file will have a new iteration of the rack and 20 more wav files mixdowns.

VCVRack[edit]

I download patches from Patchstorage and hack them to my own use.

Radio[edit]

A USB dongle supplies FM radio to an ingouhse VCVrack plugin

DIY Plugins[edit]

Various VST, JUCE CSound etc plugins in development inhouse

Ongaku[edit]

Performance version of Bento

Bento[edit]

Cool chatoic Oscilators in a standalone DAW by Georgio

Quadrivium[edit]
