delchords




hardware:   Apple MacBook M4 Air, Behringer model D synth
software:   Apple Logic Pro X, max/msp

For those interested, I set up the long delay in this piece by routing the sound from Logic to and from Max/MSP using the BlackHole internal digital audio routing system. Even though there are a number of audio delay plugins for Logic, none of them allows arbitrarily long delays. I can construct these in Max/MSP (using the [tapin~]/[tapout~] objects), but the trick is to get it inserted into the Logic signal path. I use long delays a lot in my music, so this is a relatively important thing for me to be able to do.

I thought of an alternative approach that may work better; as I mentioned on the piece website (linked below) the BlackHole routing system would frequenctly stop working after 5 minutes or so. I'll probably give the alternative a test soon.

Also, this is what I wrote upon hearing the news that Greg Horn had died:
