#rd8

2026-01-17

Halfway through this month and I've done the same number of tracks. Today's cue was "Obsession" and the technical aspect was spherical coordinates.

Repetition will cover part of the obsession, and the TR808 (RD8) will be used for the drums (are we obsessed with Roland drum machines? definitely).

We had a drum synth friend visit again yesterday. it was fun. 2 #eurorack systems vs #rd8. much drums, like the #QueenOfPentacles

signal path was quite simple: rd8 through on mono channel of #guillotine for grit, and #bia through the other. then it's a matter of playing with the switch for the 3 algorithms, and varying the amount of hard clipping distortion. i honestly don't know for sure what was going on in the other eurorack system :) there definitely was analog tape delay through #t-rex #replicator.

final "printing" recording available as usual at https://samae.demer.se/2024-saae/ as track 0x0E. very light eq and compression, and cutting some parts off to fit 30 min of live recording into 12 min.

Drum #eurorack case, with #QueenOfPentacles, #BIA meet an #RD8, just tempo synced.

Here's my first #RandomLoop of year 2024. It's full of beats. Not going to call this jamuary though :D

Just blew altogether too much money on a #Behringer #RD8 Mk2 (a #TR808 clone) for no other reason than I always wanted one.

Hope I end up using it 🙃
