Weekly Stream 25: ZOIA 2.0 Firmware - 8:30pm ET
Excited to check out the improvements and make some generative stuff!
Shadowban Detour
Just an update here:As some of you know, I was shadowbanned on YouTube about 6 weeks ago. You don't get any notification for this type of thing, you just basically have to look at your analytics to see that you've not gotten any organic clicks from the sidebar or related content. This brings my average views from 20-40k per video to about 5k per video. Why was I shadowbanned?You'd think that if YouTube wanted to discourage certain things, they'd explain what it is they want to discourage. But no. The criminal is leading their ow...

Weekly Stream 23: Voltage Ignite, DCO-106, Humble Bundle
Cherry Audio's Voltage Ignite and some other audio tools are on Humble Bundle this week, so I thought I'd revisit it after not playing with it since the early beta. https://www.humblebundle.com/software/mega-sound-designer-loop-crate-vol-2-software?hmb_source=&hmb_medium=product_tile&hmb_campaign=mosaic_section_1_layout_index_1_layout_type_threes_tile_index_3_c_megasounddesignerloopcratevol2_softwarebundle
Weekly Stream #22 - 8:00PM ET - Patreon Member Original Music Listening Party
Excited to hear the tunes from the Sim Selections project on the Discord server. :)
Seven Quarantine Poems - Complete MIDI
Here it is, all 5437 notes + sustain pedal movements recorded via MIDI from a Yamaha Disklavier piano. For those unaware of what this does, it allows you to import it into virtually any DAW or MIDI sequencer and play the entire album through whatever plugin, sound, speed, pitch, etc. This is the first time I've done anything like this, but I thought it'd be a great way to allow people to listen to it the way they want, study the chords, or take and use parts they like in their own improvisations. A few notes: - Not everything will be 10...
Weekly Stream #21 - 8:30PM ET - Endlesss Studio - Jam With Me Live!
SHOW LESSEndlesss, sadly, is not available on PC just yet. But if you have a Mac, iPad, or iPhone, you can find Tim Exile's gem at endless.fm or the app store (for iOS).
What's coming! Community projects, huge contests, clean NFTs?! Oh my!
Apologies for what seems like inactivity on my end (I feel like every Patreon has posts beginning with that). I had a minor surgery which I'm recovering from, but I'm still working at a normal pace, it just prevents me from speaking vibrantly into the camera. I'm sure my voice was getting annoying anyway. So, the other things I've been working hard on:Perfect Circuit handshake - Rather than managing a kabillion client relationships with gear manufacturers, in exchange for an affiliate link, Perfect Circuit will be sending whatev...

Weekly Stream #18 - Finishing A Requested Song (Maybe) - 8PM ET
I've gotten some requests for the "swamp beat song", and it doesn't really exist, so let's make it exist!
Arturia Pigments Presets (fixed)
Sorry about the original post. I thought you could have just loaded my preset folder into yours, but alas, you can do it inside Pigments by importing a bank. So here's the bank with 11 presets, including the ones from last week's stream!
Arturia Pigments Presets
Here are 10 user presets made by muy. The metadata and even creator might not be filled in bc I'm lazy. The Presets from last night's stream are "Far Away Pad" and "One Key Field Of Grass", which require Pigments 3 (free upgrade).

Weekly Stream #17 - Arturia Pigments 3 (and maybe some weird sequencers) 10pm ET
Excited to see Arturia's take on additive synthesis!
Weekly Stream #16 - Physics Simulation & 3D Art! 10pm ET
I'm back from the swamps and ready to simulate.
Swamp Life
Early Tuesday morning I'll be embarking on a journey to the largest wetland on the continent. The black waters of the Okefenokee Swamps. It is a 700-sq mile area inaccessible by car, bike, air, or foot. One must row a canoe. It's filled with alligators. I said "filled" because I meant it. There are an estimated 13,000 of them.<does math>That's over 30 per acre. <does math>That's 1 gator per area equal the size of the upstairs of my home. There's also snakes. 24 species of mosquitos. Oh and bears. I'm going to try...
Weekly Stream #15: NFTs and Science w/ Sean Bonner
This will be a good convo, and probably a debate. I'm happy to leave my own echo chamber once in a while. If you have any questions for me or Sean, let me know below!
Vaporwave Stream Files/stems
These definitely use some mixing and some better ideas on top. Feel free to use the sounds, files, melodies, or anything you like for your own music or projects. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1iLVMfAIV9F1QvNmkSQFOlE3t0qTKesCv?usp=sharing
NFTzzzz - Boring production update
Hey y'all! Just wanted to let everyone know that I'm in production on an NFT video after a few weeks of research. (since I've been doing nothing but digging through the crypto world, I'm holding Tezos, Cardano, and UMA lol). I'm burning through it a bit faster now as some peers are being pressured by record labels to jump on the NFT train and wanted some citation behind their objection. I think realistically, Monday or Tuesday will be when it's done as I still have a whole lot of animation to do. <3
Weekly Stream #14 | 8pm ET: let░use░make░vaporwave(印俺火ラ)
It had to happen sooner or later.
Samples From The Mar25th Stream
Zip file as well as unzipped folders for browzin'I feel like livestream-made samples should go to the $4 Patrons, otherwise it feels like I'm sleazily advertising the higher tier on the livestream tier. :)
Weeklystream #13: Let's Create Some Samps! (Thurs 10pm ET)
I think I'll just start with FLStudio open and a few cable inputs. Any ideas? Questions? Concerns?
