Re: Golden Ratio, anyone?



Yeah, BT's music is a constant inspiration for me, but I'm not him, so who knows how he does it.  I met him at a live performance of this album, and he had some really heavy things to say technically about production on this album, including the first song being entirely written in csound (as in no samples, no recorded instruments, no imported wave forms, nothing, just code) and having a small dev team working building plug in libraries for him that did some of the more complicated delay/stutter processing which he used to do by hand, sample accurate to 44.1khz cd clock.  EEK.
Cool guy.

Great music and surround effects,  DVD is also visually stunning.

Btw,   regarding ratios,    to achieve this,  are you using one delay , say 1sec in series or parallel with another delay of 1.6sec or  0.6sec?   is that the idea?

Have you heard BT's song 1.618 from his album This Binary Universe?  It'll melt your face!

 

That whole album is an amazing work, i'd love to know what other loopers think!

Several years ago, I created a CD trying to derive everything (frequencies,
rhythms, delays, loops, harmonies, melodies, etc.) from the Fibonacci
sequence and the Golden Ratio.
You can check it out with the link below. There is a short sample on the
page.

Even through there were so many pieces (15), it still felt like I barely
scratched the surface of the possibilities.
