Request for videos for the next "LinnStrumentalists" compilation

[Ahornberg]

VCV has a steep learning curve because there is an overwhelming number of modules that can be used.

For the LinnStrument player, there are literally no ready-made patches that could be used out of the box.

So most of the time I start a VCV patch from scratch and end up with something very similar to my latest patches

This time I made a short improvisation using 4 instances of NI Absynth via VCV Host. But honestly I have to say, using a VST inside VCV is not that fun compared to creating a sound using VCV rack modules.

Yes, I agree. Currently "Digging into VCV Rack" is floating around #23 in my "Cool technology I'd like to dig into when time permits" list.

If you start watching Omri Cohens videos, it will naturally flow upwards that list…; - )

But anyway, we could share here also cool VCV Rack MPE patches… Which is even more inspiring than watching videos…

It’s up to #22.

It’s up to #22.

If you just listen to them while cooking, it will rise further… Doesn‘t even need extra time…; - ) His occasional „oh yeah“ or „oh yes“ alone has artistic value…

A few new pieces featuring LinnStrument. The first is a cover of Zappa’s King Kong by my brother Dan and several other players - I contributed an Audio Modeling “trombone” solo on LinnStrument:

The second is a piece called Wish with three LinnStrument tracks - Cherry Audio GX80, Audio Modeling Clarinet, and Chromaphone 3 for drums:

Nice ones, Jeremy! Happy new year to you and your family.

Thanks, Roger! Same to you! I hope all is well.

Just got the Linnstrument this weekend, this is my first day playing with it. I'm enjoying it immensely! Tried to make some doodles in A Dorian, and figured I ought to record it for the future, to get an overview of my progress (which I hope will show less sloppy playing and better understanding of what hand gestures work best). I saw that people are posting their recordings here, so I might as well share my first meandering attempt full of mistakes and erroneous notes.

Very nice, Andrew! Especially after only one day. I hope you post more videos as you become more familiar with your new LinnStrument 128.

Here is a new piece using Roger’s EP plus pad preset in Surge XT:

Linnstrument most forward at the start of act 2, feeding dreadbox nymphes if anyone is interested.

“Natural Instincts” is a bit of a departure for me. I used the Clavichord instrument in Pianoteq with no Y pitch bend. Aftertouch does provide some vibrato possibilities as on a real clavichord (although I have never played the real thing). Also, I typically play with one hand for leads and this piece is a two-handed piece. I was inspired to try the clavichord in Pianoteq after listening to Keith Jarret’s Book of Ways album.

Nice one, Jeremy! I like your two-handed technique.

Thanks very much Roger!
