Exploring Scrawl Techniques - Creating Unique Sounds with the Poly Grid

May 15, 2023 Tutorial
In the video, I demonstrate how to use a Scrawl feature in the software tool. By utilizing the Poly-Grid and various modules like envelopes and audio outputs, I show how to draw shapes that generate unique sounds. Drawing slowly creates high-resolution dots, while drawing quickly decreases the resolution. I explain how to manipulate the shape by selecting and adjusting its properties using the value and histogram features. The chaos slider allows for randomization, resulting in complex wavetable-like shapes. I showcase techniques like duplicating shapes, mirroring, scaling, and combining the Scrawl with oscillators and filters. I mention the potential for creating dubstep-style baselines and encourage viewers to explore the tool's features to generate their own unique waveforms. Finally, I remind viewers to save their favorite waveforms and invite them to like, subscribe, and stay tuned for future content.

Aperiodic

Aperiodic - a 30min drone in Bitwig and some Stepic Magic. Yesterday, I created a music video using Bitwig that features a diverse array of sounds. Instead of relying heavily on a grid-based structure, I utilized probabilities and uneven loop lengths to create a sense of variety throughout the piece. To add more depth and texture to the sound, I incorporated random and prolonged modulations for the filters.

One of the main highlights of the music video is the use of Stepic to produce the main arp that plays a melody. The sound produced by this instrument adds a unique and mesmerizing quality to the overall composition.

In 2065, scientists discovered a multi-dimensional concept that allowed them to access a new world beyond our universe. Excitement turned to horror when they realized that this new world was the true reality, and that everything they had known was merely a simulation.

The discovery sparked a global crisis, as people struggled to come to terms with the revelation that their lives were nothing more than a digital construct. The scientists continued to explore the true reality, searching for answers to the fundamental questions of existence. As humanity struggled to find its place in this new world, the only thing that was certain was that nothing would ever be the same again.
