Novation Launchpad: hack nr 1

As you know I own a Novation Launchpad, and since I want to extend the functionality in ways that Novation did not think about and I really don’t want to be bound by max/msp. Inspiration are plentiful from the work’s of monomeist’s and fellow launchpadders. What I’m making though is a little framework, with the [...]

Novation Launchpad, a review

I’ve been using my Novation Launchpad for since Nov 11, not very much, but enough to make a review. Installation: So yeah, the drivers are not class-compliant so you have to install something that seems to be a lot bigger and carry loads of crap that I don’t really want on my computer. It would [...]

Supershape oscillator.

I’ve been experimenting with creating a VST with a supershape formula as an oscillator. The sound is pretty FM’ish I think. Dont know if I’m gonna finish this though. I’ve included a little movie that shows how it looks and sound. Whaddayathink?

Dear Korg, what I wish for xmas is a kaossilator 2 with these features:

Same size. Larger touch pad. A new and exiting color. More sounds, preferably 4 banks. No LED’s (that are for other products) Be in the same price-range as the current one. A tad better LCD to better show of the new features. Patch editing, at least let me turn of those reverbs/delays/echo’s. Multiple recording layers, [...]

Croche hat for Tova

My poor daughter is sick right now, perhaps the swine flu. But thursday evening I finished this for her. She likes it alot, and that makes me happy.

When pondering if I should buy a MacBook or a MaxBook Pro one thing that talked against the MacBook was it’s plain whiteness. I decided for the cheaper alternative but I did not accept the whiteness. This is my journey towards getting this awesome tentacles on my computer. The first thing I did whas deciding [...]

First in scandinavia.

I was able to sell the theremin I ranted about a while ago, and for only 500sek more I got myself a Novation Launchpad instead. The music store where I get (almost) all of my stuff Malmö Musik, had the Nordic general agent visiting today, and he brought it. And since he was hasn’t delivered [...]

That renoise-compo

The voting is done. I did not finish last. I finished 2nd to last. http://www.renoise.com/competitions/indamixx/results.php Thank you all that voted for me! Now I know I really know I should quit my day-job and be a rock-star!

A grinder of coffe I found!

I found a coffe-grinder at a secondhand market today. It was 140Sek so I just bought it. After I tore it apart, cleaned it (spiderweb and stuff) put it together again. After spending more time to get it to grind so very small then I did waiting for it to dry after the cleaning. Then [...]

30 songs in 30 days.

http://30songs30days.com is an initiative I’ve joined. The quest is to write 30 songs in November. This is both hard and easy. Writing 30 songs is easy, but with the awesome other musicians participating I’m feeling the pressure of  stepping up my game. I have not really succeed in that, but I think I will become [...]
