Modular synth jam with Schaltwerk, MAQ, i30

Tweet

Live noodling using chord sequence from D.C. in A Minor Excursion (35:57 in http://youtu.be/qXDtcDm7WS0), using Dotcom synth, Schaltwerk, MAQ & Korg i30 arranger keyboard. Patterns from earlier MAQ video (http://youtu.be/mV91BvJFsxw) tweaked & transferred to Schaltwerk to free up MAQ for VCF control.
The unexpected syncopation from earlier video traced to fractional length pattern being gated on its off beat, so on-beat notes become audible when EG decay/release increased.
Korg i30 used in Arranger mode so backing style follows chords played with left hand; right hand plays melody.
Midi sync & clocks distributed from Sequetron to Schaltwerk, MAQ & i30 via Philip Rees MIDI Merge 2M unit used as a ‘thru’ device; can just squeeze 3 outputs from 1 input. The MIDI Thru W5 unit would be more logical but it wouldn’t transmit MIDI sync/clocks; may have been faulty but wasted lots of time doubting the deopfer gear (and sanity) so didn’t investigate further!
