Transformed Reality for MXXXCore released on patchpool

[Sampleconstruct]

Here is another Vocoder patch from TR - vocoding/granulating/delaying/filtering a pad texture (Kaleidoscope/ArcSyn) with a beat (Falcon/Zebra/Groove Agent/Tremor), tweaking the Macros on the fly. Demo starts dry displaying the pad source and then the beat, then MXXX fades in (wet/dry).

Demo for a fresh preset from Transformed Reality, processing a rhodes/string impro - demo starts dry, then MXXX fades in (wet/dry) - automating several Macros on the fly for chorus rate/feedback (the latter creating the occasional self-resonating feedbacks), volume of stereo spread module and volume of delay/reverb combo.

Audio-morphing reversed female gibberish with one of my Iris soundscapes, also on board is a formant filter with it's resonance modulated by an envelope follower, MUnison, reverb and transposed grains with filtering (post reverb) inside a feedback chain. Tweaking the Macros live on video, quite amazing what variety of sound can be created with a setup like this.

Processing some acoustic guitar loops from my sound library Ambient Strings (Falcon/MachFive) and rhodes improvising (Lounge Lizard) with a fresh preset from Transformed Reality - this preset combines 2 different types of chorus, synced delays, reversed tempo-syced granular synthesis (grain length -> 1 bar) and filter/filter drive/amplitude modulation. If you play a quick descending scale it comes back as an ascending one, fun...

Track starts totally dry:

An fresh preset from Transformed Reality processing a simple sequence of octaves/fifths (Rhodes and Kalimba sound) plus some guitar swells, this preset combines MUnison (harmonizing enabled), MGranular, MWobbler, delay and convolution FX. Demo starts totally dry, then MXXX fades in (wet/dry).

This one is totally out there:

Processing some female vocal portato accents (octaves) with an MXXXCore preset from TR (2 bands, granular synthesis+warped spaces in each band, morphing band crossovers), demo starts totally dry:

Processing some simple synth accents (Falcon) with a fresh preset from TR which uses MTransform (frequency shifter) as it's main processor plus some detuned delays in lane 2. Plenty of tempo-synced modulation going on, tweaking the Macros on the fly live on video. Video starts totally dry:

Here comes an acoustic guitar jam processed with 2 instances of MXXX, both use the same preset, as there is a follower modulator modulating the bandpass/wahwah cutoff in band 2, using 2 separate instances for bass and tapping line/solo lines sounded better, as the trigger levels would interfere otherwise.

I am well over 100 patches now including variations, started finalizing today, but there is still a lot of work to be done plus I just can't stop creating new patches, a second set for MXXX is bound to happen after this release.

Processing a bass sequencer (from my soundset Zebra 2nd Thoughts) a slap bass jam (Scarbee) and a simple beat with the preset Bass Sex from TR.

Preset description from the PDF, also stored in the info box of the preset:

Two filters with tempo-synced filter action in lane 1/2 (Over-X 24/formant filter with tempo-synced change of formant type), tempo-synced delays with volume automation and pitch shifting in lane 2 and a sub-bass enhancer in lane 3. Each component has it’s dedicated volume control on the easy page.

Video starts dry.

[Sampleconstruct]

Processing an e-bow impro played with one of my Padshop Pro patches with a finalized preset from TR using a 2-band setup combining granular synthesis/harmonizing/filtering/distortion/reverb.

From the PDF:

In the lower band a harmonizer adds octaves and perfect fifth below the input signal, a diffusion filter, a reverb and feedback module are processing the signal further, control feedback delay, filter saturation and reverb mix with the Macros in column 2. In the upper band pitch-quantized grains are processed by a convolution reverb, set grain size/reverb mix/band 2 volume with Macros 1-3, set band limit with Macro 4.

Demo starts dry.

Processing some brass swells (VSL) layered with a pad Zebra) with 2 instances of MXXXCore, each one using a different preset from TR with frequency shifting, ring modulation and other stuff.

Stepping though 3 presets from Transformed Reality using a guitar sound layered with a simple pad as audio input, tweaking the Macros on the fly.

[Sampleconstruct]

Processing a mixed choir recording from a music theatre project with 2 instances of MXXXCore routed in serial using presets from TR, pitch transformation/ring modulation with 2 side-chain oscillators/granulator in the 1st instance, reverb/delay/unison in the second instance. Video starts dry, tweaking the Macros on the fly.

[Sampleconstruct]

Processing an english horn impro (VSL XT) with an MXXXCore preset (harmonizer/granular synthesis/waveshaping/filtering/reverb/delay), automating some of the Macros, also the one which is controlling the harmonizer scale transposition, so it fits with the notes played by the english horn.

[Sampleconstruct]

Processing a simple groove (Tremor/Groove Agent) and a synth bass jam (Zebra) with 3 instances of MXXXCore using 3 tempo-synced presets from the “Rhythmical“-category, one of the MXXX instances is exciting a Kaleidoscope preset from the patchpool subscription series, which is reverberated by 2CAudio B2 and fed back into one MXXX instance. The other 2 instances are muted/faded in/out on the fly.

I can see a bright light at the end of the TR tunnel - only 12 patches to finalize, jeez what a ride, it's almost like making Alchemy patches, all those Macros and descriptions and sounds and patches and the leveling and perfectionism and whatnot...glad I did it, I have presets for years to use now and can't stop making new ones anyway....
