  • Another detail: i opened the musicbox that triggers the whole system and reversed the cilinder inside, which caused the original tune to be lost and offered me a nice new tune made of some musicbox notes and weird clicks.

  • I also use a sampler and a midi sequencer. In the moment the acoustic mechanism starts moving, the sampler starts to sample, something like 2 or 4 secs. As soon as those seconds are over, the sample starts to be reproduced in lower octaves (receiving midi C notes in lower octaves from the sequencer). Meaning that once the insect starts moving, the whole thing plays what you hear on its own. There is no post production.

  • This is genious! May i ask what effect processor/software is used for effects? This is what i'm into myself. Soundwhise, not the combining of aucoustic instruments and mechanics to create random a random order of notes tho. Pure genious!

  • about the sound effects: in "agony of an insect" i use a delay with single repetition, followed by a pitch shifter (lowering the repetition in 7 half tones).
