Sound Experiments 5 (2019)


Exploring effects pedals and older instruments I own. The journey continues. The Lost Chord is no where in sight. Onward in pursuit. I play the Alesis Air Synth and the Humtap music app among other instruments. The Alesis Air Synth played like a Theremin. There were a lot of presets to choose from to reproduce synthesizer like effects or to be able to manipulate various sound effects. A very cool instrument.

SOUND EXPERIMENTS 10 (2021)


 It has been a couple of years of neglect toward this blog again but I will try to resume some semblance of normal activity.  I am sharing the 10th version of "Sound Experiments".  The 6, 7, 8 and 9 will be uploaded soon.  

In this episode, I look at and play some of my musical devices including Bleep Labs' Pico Paso pocket noise synth, the Realistic Electronic Reverb unit made way back in the day, the PAIA Gnome Analog Synth box, and the Yamaha RY9 "Big Jam" and its guitar synthesizer emulation. The Electronic Reverb and the Big Jam were recently sold through ebay. I hope that these effects are heavily utilized and get a proper second life!

Thanks!
