Particularly the Venice album (see - Rivers of Sand). I'm hearing some really nice granularized guitar playing. Making Cirrus a very desirable module now. Unfortunately it's also giving me new acoustic guitar GAS, a lot more expensive!

30sec into river of sand and I'm hooked on Fennesz now too.
Amazing use of an acoustic guitar and technology.
Is this whats possible with the Cirrus module?.......I'm drooling.

He's great isn't he? I think he uses a lot of MAX/MSP in his recordings. But it's a definite granulator sound from my experience of using AudioMulch. Re: Cirrus it looks like it's essentially a hardware granulator. So I reckon you'd want to put a variety of sounds through it to get interesting results. I don't see putting an oscillator through it is going to be that interesting but I can get excited about putting my guitars through it.

Ow yes! Fennesz is definitely one of those often forgotten genies of the more esoteric side of electronic music. A free and less hardware greedy mas/msp like environment can be constructed with puredata. I love it for building elaborate sample processing/sequencing environments.
A lot of my pre AE modular releases are all made with a puredata daw and synthesizer that I wrote myself.

Sweet I'll check out puredata. cheers. Among those releases you mention, is RITVS from your Devs Comedenti album one of those. either way i've just discovered it and it's a beautiful song (link below for anyone interested) deofol.bandcamp.com/album/devs-comedenti |

If you're interested in Pure Data admin recently shared this excellent series of YT tutorials on the discord. Been working my way through them as I've wanted to learn PD for years!

Thanks for checking out though  If I'm not mistaken then the Dr0nz album is the first album that was built with puredata in this case it was my first markov chain sequencer/wavetable synth I wrote. 3Arthmover is made with the first iteration of my AEbeltone puredata DAW (given the name I was predestined to get an AEmodular it seems ) to manipulate/sequence field recordings of a nightly sandstorm in the Sahara desert. over the years new functionalities have been added like sequencers based of cellular automates and euclidian rythms. |

pt3r Yes I think you were predestined for Ae . "to manipulate/sequence field recordings of a nightly sandstorm in the Sahara desert" - how can one not check that out......Dr0nz is next up! dizzeesatchel thanks for putting the link up, was just searching the web for something that could tell me where to start with PD. nice one.

If you want to start with Pd then definitely check youtube there are a few excellent tutorial channels out there that start at the absolute beginner level and make it all the way to granular synthesis and time stretching etc...

The Old "Endess summer" album is also very good, so is the album "Field Recordings 1995:2002"

Fair play to him. I've always found the marrying of guitar and synths to be the hardest thing.

I've always found the marrying of guitar and synths to be the hardest thing. Gary Numan was really good with mixing those. Unless you're thinking about classic guitar. |

Unless you're thinking about classic guitar. love a good trip down memory lane. I can never get the guitar to sound right with synths. I ditch it on most tracks. My thinking for me is that mediocre synth playing will still sound pleasing but matching it with mediocre guitar...... |

From what I remember reading about Gary Numans first album. He initially went into the studio to make a rock album but there just happened to be a synth in the studio at the time. He ended up noodling with it but that turned into free hand playing on all the tracks and lo his sound was born. All those tracks were with a trad rock band doing the backing tracks. |
