Magnetic Grains (Onde Magnetique OM-1, Instruo Arbhar, Critter and Guitari Eyesy)

Overview and performance pairing various tape loop sounds played from the Onde Magnetique OM-1 with the Instruo Arbhar granular processor. Each tape loop used was captured into a different Arbhar layer with modulation applied to change parameters such as pitch, length and layer. To complete the sound, the output of the Arbhar was then patched through the Make Noise QPAS (stereo filter), Qu-Bit Nautilus (delay), Xaoc Timiszoara (reverb) and the Noise Engineering Librae Legio (coloration and compression).

To add some additional visuals for overlaying and a separate visualizer video, the Critter and Guitari Eyesy was added. Modulation used for the Arbhar and the overall audio was passed through the Empress Effects Zoia Euroburo and used for adjusting of Eyesy parameters (e.g. grain color) with the Arbhar pulse output triggering new grain visuals.
