Two Tangles

2024

Dual shift register synthesis and sequencing instrument for Norns, inspired by the Lorre Mill Double Knot. Two independent 8-stage shift registers interact through a flexible routing matrix with 13 logic operations, creating evolving generative patterns.

Features:

  • Dual voice FM synthesis with Moog-style filters
  • 13 logic operations (AND, OR, XOR, ADD, etc.)
  • Grid 128 controller support
  • 4 independent LFOs with modulation matrix
  • MIDI clock sync with swing

Image Glitcher

2024

In the spirit of the old Audacity image glitching technique, I’ve dveloped a Maxforlive device that allows for the implementation of image to audio to image conversion. This device allows for powerful image processing using the whole host of abelton live’s tools.

Specifications:

Two-Device System built with Max and Java Script
