CUCKOO demoing Plogue Chipsounds plug-in

[algebraparish]

i really like your set up just a m-audio ekeys with a macbook pro and a nano kontrol. Its so simple that its brilliant! I want a set up similar to yours i was wondering if i could do this same thing with the macbook air?

[cuckoomusic]

@algebraparish Cool, thanks! MacBook Air.. yeah, sure. Especially the newer ones should be fast enough to do some serious audio processing. They've got dual USB2 - enough to connect things. That eKeys is really bad quality, you might consider either the newer Korg Microkey or the Akai LPK25 or something that has a much higher build quality.

[algebraparish]

@cuckoomusic alright so i should either get the korg microkey or the akai LPK25 alright thanks for the tips!

[chupathingy99]

I'm glad to have contributed to a program like chipsounds.

[CCV334]

too awesome it crashed lol wut

[sinetwo]

Yo I just downloaded it last night, and played around with the arpeggio. I realised you've got ableton running. Can you use it as a VST? I've only used the standalone software...

[cuckoomusic]

@sinetwo Yes, I think when you install Chipsounds it'll automatically installs itself as a VST version as well, doesn't it?

[sinetwo]

@cuckoomusic Yep, I just bought it and it works flawlessly :) I just did a beat with it as well :D

[ApOkwARG]

i rewatch this video from time to time. your improvisations are very creative, i love it! you should do another one. same setting, different tune :D

[cuckoomusic]

@ApOkwARG Thanks man! Really appreciate it! When you least expect it, I'll make another one ;)

[waitingformusic]

CRASH. ARGGGGHHHHHH. 

[geoffdanap]

is crazy mannnnn! :D great

[WARDISWARD]

you look like vibert :)

[Sugardrummer]

That's so baaaad.....

it's good.

[muckleberryblim]

crazy crunchy sounds

what keyboard controller are you using? been looking for something like that...

[cuckoomusic]

Thanks, hehe. The keyboard is eKeys Evolution, think it's renamed M-Audio eKeys 37 now. If you're picky, it's bad, cheap quality and a little latency. But it's light weight and wide enough for two hands, unlike the good quality Akai LPK25 (25 keys) that is basically for one hand. The other controller is a Korg nanoKontrol.

[muckleberryblim]

niceone. the akai does look good but 2 octaves just isn't enough! will check out the eKeys. keep up the chip abuse ;)

[cuckoomusic]

Aooww.. my eKeys Evolution just died! The plastic of one of the keys is finally weak enough to always trigger a note :( Well well.. next: OP-1, when when wheeen??

[muckleberryblim]

Shit sorry to hear that. They must be really crap quality.

Thanks for the warning still :)

And the OP-1 looks amazing doesn't it?! Guess it'll be costing a bit more that 40 euros though haha.

[friendofCHAKA]

hilarious! good purchase

[joestrange]

Dude, Are you high?

[cuckoomusic]

@joestrange

Hahaha... well, nope.

No toxics in my body.

[joestrange]

Hahaha! I just bought Chipsounds and Spectrasonics Trilian today.....Its been a good day Cuckoo....and Im glad your not high.

[Califaudio]

been waiting for this for a very long time. thanks for the video and great work, plogue!

[spinecraft]

man, this sounds great! thank you

[cuckoomusic]

Thanks man :) I'm gonna post more of this. It's great inspiration these sounds.

[embracenoir]

What are the controllers you're using? They seem to work out well for the software. I'm trying to get the right set up to compliment the software.

[cuckoomusic]

The controller is a KORG nanoKONTROL. Cheap and simple to use. I set up as many parameters as I could, and through Ableton Live mapping the bottom buttons to select what midi channel in the plug-in I'm editing.

[Georgherman]

Cool Andreas!

[cuckoomusic]

Plogue says Live is to blame ;) Let's hope this will all be smooth with the new Live 8.0.5 that I'm downloading now, and I'll check out my setup again. Maybe I did some bad routing.

[wwwPLOGUEcom]

I dont want to put 100% of the blame on the host, but the crash logs dont point elsewhere for the moment. Please keep sending more if you get any other reproduceable one.

Oh .. i love the jam before.. well that happened.

Thanks

[cuckoomusic]

Yeah thanks, just before the crash I felt I was really starting to get into it, you know :)
