ersatz jazz

I've been working on something really glitchy and digital-sounding, but I got sick of hearing it, so I made a cheesy jazz version.  I used obiwannabe's jazz drum patch (modified slightly), a walking bassline generator I programmed, and the same walking bassline generator modified a bit for the vibraphone (which is really samples of a Mellotron because I was too lazy to find good vibraphone samples or finish my banded waveguide percussion patch).

That's goddamn beautiful, ichibod! 

I couldn't have a peak at the code could? Only for thievery purposes, I promies!

Re: ersatz jazz

Thanks! Sure, you can see the walking note generator, but I have to clean it up first to make it more intelligible/less embarrassing.  Although who knows how intelligible it will be, because I could barely understand it myself by the time I was done building it.

Re: ersatz jazz

Here's the bassline generator.  It uses Pd-extended.

Wow man, that's how band in a box should sound like! That really sounds like the real thing to my ears (but then might ears might not be qualified tenough to do such a dangereous comparison)...

I'm very curious to have a little look at that basslinegenerator as well...

Re: ersatz jazz

Thanks! Yeah, my (perverted) instinct is to use Pd like it's a Linux version of Songsmith to the quadrillionth power.

Re: ersatz jazz

yes we are on the same page.  I've had some laughable efforts on my own, the only seemingly coherent part of it was obi's jazzdrumsamplebox.  Now there is a serious contender for walking bass.

We're going to blow songsmith out of the pond.

Re: ersatz jazz

Where does the bass sound come from? Is that synthesis or samples?

Re: ersatz jazz

Everything is samples.  The drums are probably from http://www.sampleswap.org/ and the bass is edited from http://theremin.music.uiowa.edu/MIS.doublebass.html.

Re: ersatz jazz

Yeah, it's part of Zexy.  I also used [urn] somewhere to get different permutations of [expr] results each time.

Re: ersatz jazz

I think the last one had some execution order problems, so here's a fixed version (hopefully).
