ARPdelay




hardware:   Apple MacBook M4 Air, Behringer ARP 2600 clone
software:   Apple Logic Pro X, Max/MSP

I mentioned in my additional commentary for delchords that I had thought of an alternative approach for setting up a long-delay system. ARPdelay uses that system -- basically I run the input from the ARP-clone synthesizer directly into Max/MSP and set up the delay there, routing the long-delayed output into Logic for recording. This did seem to work much better (i.e. it didn't stop after 5 minutes or so!) than my earlier approach, although it did preclude any sig-processing I might want to do from the Logic signal back through the delay. But it was also more similar to the original 'long delay' system I used back in the good ole analog days.

As with the delchords piece, I performed this 'live'. I didn't use a keyboard on this one, though. Instead I tuned the oscillators 'by hand' using the ARP-clone sliders.
