0:19 Dissonance of Louboutins
0:31 meow meow meow Wow
1:25 ...
2:05 elevators. Mm.
5:08 F
8:45 See you next time.
8:52 I'm just messing around here with the patch cables.
9:15 what you can get the 2600 to do, if you add it.
9:19 But I was actually going to, let's see if I could just throw together a quick multi-track recording just to mess around with some of these new software's thingies I just installed. All right.
10:06 Outro
10:25 Music
10:55 Thanks for watching the video.
11:13 3 2 1 and 2 and 3 and 4 2
11:18 music
11:54 (unidentified song) unidentified
13:15 And three and four and five and eight and seven,
13:18 (unidentified song) unidentified
16:42 and 2 and 3 and 4 and 1 1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and
17:09 (talk)
17:23 always be safe out there.
17:28 Okay
17:42 this is one of those things I have always wanted to try I don't know how well
17:48 It's going to work.
17:53 One of the basic limitations of Superior Drummer is it's a pain in the ass to pro-
17:58 ... it's great for playing live but less great for electronic music in the meantime the
18:13 Slowly, Behringer RD-8.
18:16 is
18:19 Famously built on a drum machine that is very easy to program, so the question is...
18:26 Can I control a superior drummer from an RD-8? This question may be—
18:37 a little difficult to answer due to a few logistics problems, but we'll see.
18:41 We'll see how we do. All right. So there's two things I'm going to need here. One is some way to send MIDI to the computer. And the other is to get the op…
19:11 Put this thing somewhere, and the other is some way to get MIDI back.
19:15 And looking around and I see this handy… All right. Okay. I should have a set of arms over here. I can put the trim machine on to entangle everything.
19:57 A few extra wires hanging off of them...
20:00 and to add to the fun
20:08 Just check and see if my wireless headphones. Since I added that antenna work a little better, so I could lose my current wiredness. OK. So, the drum machine here, going to get power to it somehow.
20:32 It appears to want...
20:44 I should really have just a clamp on power strip on this. Just assume that I'm going to need to plug other stuff in. OK, let's try that.
20:58 Belt-back thing and see how that works
21:22 issue.
21:37 All right, so it at least sort of works.
22:01 .
22:06 Oh
22:10 (unidentified song) unidentified
25:50 Okay, so a little bit of glue obviously needed here, cause I currently have Hi-Hat selected all the way across, and that's not happening, but let's see if we can convince Superior measurement.
26:08 Okay, so the question is, how do I set... Note. Note. Stop. Play. This has got to be sending a node, I think. I'll just try sending it to something a little less picky. See what it does. Okay, I have to admit it doesn't ...
30:15 And nothing happens, okay, so why is the snare drum not being sent?
30:21 Where are they?
30:30 Things aren't being sent. Hello Tom, going nowhere. Mid Tom, going nowhere. Rim-shot, going nowhere. Hand clap, nowhere. Cal-bell, again no symbol. Is sent. Open hat. Not sent, closed hat. All right, seems like we're goo...
30:48 Not sent. What could I be doing wrong here? aha
31:45 Okay, let's see here.
31:49 What do I want? Settings
32:52 Okay, next question is why this... That's not a good sign either, so we are not reacting to the tempo.
33:19 the
33:25 This is where it needs data from the outside world.
33:29 to help it some. Clearly we have one of those, too. Let's see if this works.
33:51 (unidentified song) unidentified
36:41 Thank you very much.
36:44 then we can add other loops, etc.
36:47 Good-bye.
36:51 (unidentified song) unidentified
40:23 Trying to decide what the best way to proceed from here is. My helpful furry companion is here, of course. So I want to have a hat part, very subtle hat part I can bring in an out.
41:13 And I thought I wanted 16th notes on that but it sounds like it's on crack when I do that. Anyway, let's create another drum track here.
41:27 Track new stereo, an instrument track.
41:34 And, again, with the instrument Superior...
41:40 And
41:46 (unidentified song) unidentified
44:47 Do that. OK. Time operations. Move song start.
45:00 Let's go bars, and let's look at bars over here because we want it to be
45:09 Three maybe?
45:23 Okay, and the problem with that is it moves the MIDI but not the audio, so then you got to drag the audio.
45:32 Let's go get it on the tape. I love it. So I'm beating like compassionate football. That's so big. Do thear!?
45:39 (unidentified song) unidentified
49:57 ...but, which...
50:01 That's okay, I know that there's newer firmware for it than when I'm running, which is... Okay, let's see if I can save this pattern too. Save pattern 2...
50:12 Save. And then can I go pattern, one, two, two, one, no. Pattern one, stop. Play, step, no. I should probably read the manual about how the pattern memory works. Anyway.
50:41 It gave us a very quick and dirty drum part.
50:44 and so we'll have to remember that trick for future considerations.
50:58 All right, and now I'm gonna pack up the RD-8 real quick.
51:03 she's a definitely useful little guy there
51:20 I had hoped it could be used in that way, but as my first time actually.
51:25 confirming the theory. And I think for now I'll just set it on tori.com Mike's table while I contemplate what I would like to do...
51:46 There's just, there's so many things I could lay around top of this.
51:50 Let's save this, and then let's see.
51:59 All right, so we need to turn off Superior Drummer here, and let's see. I was thinking...
52:06 Uh, the...
52:10 Creepy voices from the QSR might be interesting. QSR.
52:16 is, this one. Alright. So let's see…
52:30 (unidentified song) unidentified
53:36 What have I done?
53:42 I added a new instrument track but I didn't...
53:47 Track, new stereo instrument track. Alright, so if we start out.
53:58 the instrument of good old Vienna. Followed by, of course.
54:03 I think.
54:06 I right about that. Followed by, of course, the ever popular IR1-FULL with my sweet preset here. And switch back to Vienna and load in strings, cello, solo cello one. And now, let's see what we can do there. It didn't re...
54:48 all right so what might fit? well let's try the eight voice because that was entertaining the heck out of me last night
55:03 (unidentified song) unidentified
55:54 thing here
55:58 OK, QSR is inputs 1 and 21 and 22 supposedly.
56:03 We will see. Indeed it does seem to be.
56:12 Hang on, we are uh having…
56:27 Technical difficulties, let's try that again. Alright.
56:38 music
56:44 Thanks for watching!
56:47 Theme song. Let's try that again, see if I can get a little more volume.
57:24 I'm out of this whole bus.
57:28 ... Gotta follow it up to that B...
57:43 All right.
57:47 (unidentified song) unidentified
58:58 Well, let's
59:01 (unidentified song) unidentified
1:01:06 It's channel dropping now. Okay. QSR is... which one are these? The aliases one. Okay, and it does have more stuff than the usual Beastie. Between it and...
1:01:31 (unidentified song) unidentified
1:05:06 Alright. Another instrument track... ..and let's add some...
1:05:17 Ah, contact. Good old contact. Where we keep all the, uh, the trippy shit. Okay, contact... There you are.
1:05:31 And I think today we're gonna go with, ah yes Rev, I just.
1:05:37 Give it a minute to load. And let's see if we can find something suitably screwed up, to mess with, that. OK, it takes a QSR offline...
1:05:56 That doesn't seem right.
1:06:08 It might worked, I'll show you that...
1:06:24 (unidentified song) unidentified
1:08:07 (unidentified song) unidentified
1:09:43 Yes!
1:09:46 (unidentified song) unidentified
1:10:57 all right
1:11:00 That's interesting. Let's save that. I don't know if we'll keep it or not, but then All right, um, take the
1:11:10 take
1:11:14 2,600 off the line which is the easiest way to do it.
1:11:17 just muted
1:11:35 (unidentified song) unidentified
1:15:51 Alright, let's try this again.
1:15:58 (talk)
1:16:36 Alright.
1:16:39 (unidentified song) unidentified
1:20:10 Alright.
1:20:18 (unidentified song) unidentified
1:23:59 INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC Yeah, yeah. Um, uh, yeah,
1:24:39 I hope you have a great day. Stay safe
1:24:42 (unidentified song) unidentified
1:33:00 I love you. Thank you.
1:33:06 (unidentified song) unidentified
1:36:31 Well, it's interesting, anyway. Probably not really publishable, but good to work some of the dust off and add a few new tricks to my sleeve. I think I'm gonna call it a night on this project though.
