116▶️ Sisters 👩‍❤️‍👩 2/3 (Vermona Perfourmer + H9 // DRM-1 Mk4 + Bigsky + Lethargy // Keystep Pro)

As I've been posting a couple of Youtube Shorts lately, I made this "very long" video this time (the longest one on the channel, other than the "Going live at home video"    • Going Live ☀️ (Arturia KeyStep Pro //...   😊).

For this one, I used 2 analog instruments:
Perfourmer Mk2
   • Perfourmer MkII (Vermona)  )
and DRM-1 Mk4
   • DRM-1 MKIV (Vermona) - Analog drum sy...  )
sequenced by the Keystep Pro (KSP)
   • Keystep Pro (Arturia)  .

I made heavy use of a lot of cool features of the KSP like: polymeter, randomness, step skip, looper, transposing within scale, scenes, individual drum mutes, time shift, quick toggle between 2 drum patterns (this one is a bit of a trick of mine) 🤩

So the track starts with the KSP's Track 4 sequencing voices 3 & 4 of the Perfourmer (going through the H9 using its tape delay effect, where you can clearly hear the nostalgic "wow & flutter").

I then unmute the KICK and SNARE (played by the DRM-1) abd BASS (played by the Perfourmer, but going out DRY by its seperate audio output).

The other tracks are then unmuted and I start to transpose live the played sequences (you know I love this feature, right?).

Further on I use the KSP's "Scene" feature to load different patterns for the "chorus" part.
You can hear me playing with some parameters of the DRM-1's CLAP sound, which is going through the Dreadbox Lethargy analog phaser (using the DRM-1's handy insert jack!).
I also trigger manually a couple of times the MULTI voice of the DRM-1 (which is going through the Bigsky reverb), for the build etc.

The track then heads to a more "experimental" outro part consisting of 5 step patterns (where I shifted the analog phaser from the CLAP insert jack to the HIHAT2 insert jack).

Hardware used *

// BASS:
Vermona Perfourmer Mk2 Voice 1 (With pulse width of the square oscillator being modulated by the LFO, created this fat BASS sound 🥰)

// SYNTHS:
Vermona Perfourmer Mk2 Voice 2, Voices 3&4 + Eventide H9 Max (tape delay) + Pill (ducking pedal, triggered by the KICK from DRM-1)

// DRUMS:
Vermona DRM-1 Mk4 (8-voice analog drum synth) with Strymon Bigsky reverb (on the MULTI's output) and Dreadbox Lethargy analog phaser (on the CLAP's output in insert mode, then HIHAT2)

// SEQUENCER:
Arturia Keystep Pro
