Short Attention Span: #3 Sproing

[play] Short Attention Span: #3 Sproing (2007)

Continuing to embrace rather than fight my short attention span, here is the third one in the series.

This one was made with a MOTM analog synthesizer controlling a Sherman filter bank. The source sounds where ticks of white noise modulated with some FM sounds.

I would not characterize the filter bank as “intuitive.” I decided not to get one years ago, but then I went to a show a few weeks ago and was so blown away by somebody using one, that it caused me to change my mind. The learning curve is steep, though. They could really use a better manual and the diagrams of signal paths stencilled to the outside are very incomplete.
