Ambient jam with the Arturia Polybrute and Soma Cosmos

A live, semi-improvised track performed entirely on hardware.
With some busier jams coming up, I wanted to put another simple, ambient setup on the table. It had been ages since I explored the Polybrute, not because I don't like it, but because it's so big! But the Polybrute has great oscillators, filters, and effects, as well as a layout that is a joy to explore. Paired with the Cosmos, i.e. my favourite looper, and I've actually been making improvisations on this setup for a week.
Arturia Polybrute - All synth sounds and effects
Soma Cosmos - Asymmetrical drifting loop station
Performed and recorded live to a stereo output, with EQ, compression, and limiting on the master.

You never rush the outro, and that is so important when you take us so far away. It's like breaking a hypnosis meditation - you have to count us back to the real world so we don't crash. Really fine work that continues to inspire and delight. Thank you again.

If Soma had not done anything else, just the Cosmos, they would still be eternally praised for that.

I really like how this somehow reminds me of the way a good classical guitarist coaxes all these different timbres out of a fine concert guitar. It's the same instrument / sound at heart, but with different articulations the tonal changes are like different instruments. So, there's ponticello harpsichord noises, woody sul tasto muted pizzacato plucks. Then, the subtle timbre changes add a lot to the arrangement, but the fact it's the same instrument, bonds it together.

@willswitchcraft 2 жыл бұрын

excellent as usual.........I'm not sure if it was intensional, but you've listed the Cosmos as a Drifting 'Loop' Station (instead of Memory). I so rarely hear a Polybrute, esp. for ambient - the two pieces of gear are a great combo.....so beautiful - the way you've eased out of this, creating a dynamic shift in the intensity, top end, etc. .....a really Killer ending

Never had a synth, been playing guitar for decades but have been looking a different synths. This is the kind of stuff I would love to do. There is a used Polybrute on the local CL. I'm having trouble pulling the trigger as this looks very complex for a beginner like myself. I do love this composition you posted. Very Blade Runnerish. :)

@JayHosking 9 ай бұрын

Hey, that's great to hear! And thanks for the kind words. This one is a little complex for a beginner, yeah, and with the presets would mean that you often don't know what the parameters are dialled in at. My personal opinion would be to get something that is what-you-see-is-what-you-get, i.e. no presets. They sound just as good, and also teach you how to build synth sounds at the same time. Best of luck!
