Noise box with tiny synths inside: Gecho V2 (as master sound engine) Gecho V1 (additional sound treatment patch22 here) PO 33 - Bastl Kastl - Patchblock midiblock as midi controller for the Gecho V2 (patch34 here). The midiblock gear contains sine drone and filter to, it can be plugged by external gear to use the filter. The mixers are Little Bear MC5 Mini. My aim here was to have some portable set-up with opened possibilities and making improvisation according to my mood. Also playing with live instrument mixed with the electronic gear. I use the stereo mics of both Gecholoopsynth if i want. The patch 34 of the Gecho V2 is my favorite, the out sound is very clear, with beautiful reverb. But you have to use a midi controller to reset the default value of the pitch shifter and then, you will have just the reverb with pure sound. You can use also external speaker without too much feedback and it is interesting to play with acoustic instruments without headphone. With the midi controller you can manage reverb delay pitch shifter stereo spread and slicer. It contains also a sort of granular sampler (very short by the way, you can hold 1 second of sound and trim it, but it's interesting). Using midi control extends a lot the possibilities ! For this first video, I showed just basic stuff in an ambient way but we can make some music in a different way, using PO33 sampler or the Gecho V1 sampler for exemple and have some standard electro-stuff. I know all is old gear now, but it was interesting to me to take more time to manage it perfectly to my sound and playing mode desires. #gechologic #bastl #ambient #ambientmusic #noise #pocketoperator
