Korg Wavestate Live Ambient Berlin School Jam - Wavetrain

Описание: Here's a live improvised Ambient / Berlin School style jam on the Korg Wavestate using a custom 4-layer patch. The main melodic theme is somewhat inspired by 80s Tangerine Dream, but done the way I like to use the Wavestate - with live playing of arpeggiators, wave sequencing and live sound design, rather than with prerecorded note sequences.

This patch is a part of the "Berlin School and Ambient Construction Kit Vol 3" soundbank available for purchase here: https://waveformer.gumroad.com/

The Wavestate patch/performance consists of four layers. Layer D is a pad with plenty of different wavesamples that the sample sequence loops through. Layers A, B and C uses the Arpeggiator and the Time Sequence to create a rhythmic melody. These three Layers plays the same melody (based on each Layer's Arpeggiator and Time Sequence), but Layer A plays 16ths, Layer B plays 8ths and Layer C (bass) plays quarter notes.

Performance Mod Knobs 1-4 change the Octave for the four Layers. Performance Mod Knobs 5-8 change the Level for each of the four Layers.

Joystick modifies Layer D Sample Sequence Loop Start and End. ModWheel increases Amp Envelope Attack Time and widens the stereo image (using a LFO to modulate Pan) for Layer A, B and C. It also increases the Reverb Size and Mix.

The audio is recorded to SD card on the KP2S and normalized in Audacity. Video is recorded on a Canon EOS M50 mk2 with the included EF-M 15-45mm lens. Audio and video is synchronized in DaVinci Resolve 17.
