More shit that is horrible and magnificent: https://soundcloud.com/cameron-heck/hahaha-hell-yeahThings gets stupid/wrong in places but this is just to have a reference point. I will probably keep coming up with compatible samples.

Re: A Barely Scientific Microphone Test
Pretty much everything I have ever posted that is of this sampled lofi electronic music vibe is just unplugged electric guitar recorded into my laptop mic completely fucked to shit in the box. I'm running stupid dirty compression and radical EQ boosts/cuts. Also, octave stuff as well. And on this one in particular, a Waves "CLA Effects" plugin. First time using that one. Really fucked up, gonna explore that more.
Things I typically use now:
Dada Life Sausage Fattener CLA-76 Reapitch AUDistortion (a garageband stock distortion/bitcrusher/delay/ringmod deal) PuigTech 2-band parametric (to make things REALLY thump or scrape
This is just one track of my Tele played with a lighter for a slide. Also, the kick drum on this track is just a super compressed and bass'd out sample of me hitting my mattress. No pitchshifting, however. That's it.

Re: A Barely Scientific Microphone Test
ALSO! Kramer Tape sim, has a tape delay deal that does both feedback and slapback. Radical, fun plug.

Re: A Barely Scientific Microphone Test
I don't know whether or not I broke this. Also, getting these two tracks not to fight is proving kind of hard, I just probably need to smash less. https://soundcloud.com/cameron-heck/seasikk-whale

Re: A Barely Scientific Microphone Test
Really, I probably just need to use an actual sub bass, throw on some octave up and abuse it on the top rather than trying to get sub frequencies out of a Casio played into a laptop mic.

Re: A Barely Scientific Microphone Test
A rough demothing laptop mic jam of a Dead Family Dog song we're working on. Aidan's playing bass, Alex and I are playing uke. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/137 ... 20song.wav

Re: A Barely Scientific Microphone Test
Sounds like some kind of traditional Appalachian math folk music that maybe hasn't existed yet. You need a dulcimer and a banjo now.

Re: A Barely Scientific Microphone Test
The intention was kind of like a Sung Tongs/Feels sort of thing, and once the other two got involved and wrote their parts it became something far more batshit/folky. Alex's playing is nutty (she is the louder, chordier parts that tend to come in once the theme's been set), she also wrote a couple of those basslines.

Re: A Barely Scientific Microphone Test
A very horrible, abbreviated rendition of a Paul Simon tune y'all know and love, this one was Alex's idea and shall be sung by her. As per usual, this is just the sample that bass and guitar shall be jammed over. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/137 ... FUCKER.mp3In addition to being a cheaty bastard on the 303 and vocaling, I am getting a halfdrumset sort of thing together. I have a cigarbox drum thing rigged up to a cowbell kickpedal device repurposed with a vice and shit. I will post pictures of it soon, it's quite ghettofabulous. I will probably also have a snare and possibly a fast crash or china, I am not sure yet. And I kind of want a hi-hat.. But I want to keep the gear situation as lowkey as possible. I will also be putting together a PA rig. I am gonna be using half of that Ampeg 4x12 that's getting split up, gonna load it up with some bumpin' PA speakz and get my hands on a decent, clean SS power amp. I'm very excited about how potentially antagonistic this band is gonna be.

Re: A Barely Scientific Microphone Test
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/137 ... 20DEMO.wavThis is not really how this is going to sound. Tomorrow, I am getting the Organizer back.

Re: A Barely Scientific Microphone Test
I'm not entirely sure what's going on here- sounds like some cheesy keyboards that at least have a MIDI in for the drum programming, run into a cab and mic'd up? It works though, for whatever weird-ass thing it's supposed to be.
Re: that last one and the one above it, what's your setup for this, anyhow, re: keyboards, sequencers et al.?

Re: A Barely Scientific Microphone Test
Funny, new one sounds like Battles. Where are you headed with it?

Re: A Barely Scientific Microphone Test
Mr. Eric, the noisemaker(s) you're hearing is sillysimple. It is this funky bastard (pictured below), just recorded from the internal speaker into my laptop mic. Threw Sausage Fattener and reverb at it to get some life out of it. It's got the whole casio chord (left keyboard buttons) thing, where it sort of runs it's own sequencing system between the drum machine pads (blue buttons on top left) and then you can lay down a little monophonic lickage on the actual keyboard if you so wished to. For my purposes, it is really quite fucking brilliant. About 80% of the beats are whackobonkerz that sound nothing like what you would think a stock casio beat would be. Mr. Chris, the structure is going to be maybe exactly this..? I am not positive yet. The key difference in sound will be the production. My friend Porter (young dude from Clank.) has been borrowing Alex/I's Earthquaker Devices Organizer. Seriously one of the coolest fucking pedals I have ever met, if not #1. The fucking Casio into the Organizer is like a straightup Animal Collective song generator. It's fucking absurd. Also, I definitely hear the Battles thing.

Re: A Barely Scientific Microphone Test
Yo, I forgot to include:
The You Can Call Me Al instro is just me taking a MIDI instrumental I found and just fucking destroying it. A lot of this stuff is actually kind of a bastard way of getting something that sounds like more than it is. Which is essentially my whole credo with music, so it's all good.

Re: A Barely Scientific Microphone Test
Too bright, but getting closer to what I want. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/137 ... 02-001.wavBeta 57 nearly dead center on the dustcap (not where I am thinking I want this to be) and an Oktava MK-012 way out on the cone in thumpy territory. Both mics are like, 4-6 inches off the grille. Amp's a Sunn Spectrum, cab's a Traynor with GT-75s. Pedal's a fuckin' HM-2. Geetar's my Thinline in AADGBE.

Re: A Barely Scientific Microphone Test
A song Mr. Colin and I jammed out a couple weeks ago. He wrote the song in like, 10 minutes. He's guitar and bassing, and I'm drumming. This was written and recorded in the span of an hour. Geetar'z a Heritage Les Paul copy into a Roland JC-77. Bass is a short scale P-Bass DI'd with a Big Muff. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/137 ... IXEROO.wavThis is the general room sound of the new house I live at. Sounds pretty cool. Certainly better than that shitty ass basement at our previous Seattle residence.
