Make Your Own Disintegration Loops With The Music Thing Modular Workshop System
This video, via Bay Mud, explores the idea of creating ‘disintegrating loops’ using the Degenerator program card for the Music Thing Modular Workshop System.
The Workshop System is a small, self-contained Eurorack modular system. It includes a Computer module that is a multi-function module that can perform a variety of functions loaded from cards.
Degenerator turns the Workshop System’s Computer module into a self-overwriting audio looper, capable of everything from slow ambient decay to saturated noise and collapse.
The approach explored in this video is inspired by the tape loop degradation techniques used by William Basinski in creating his classic ambient piece, The Disintegration Loops.
You can find a directory of program cards for Computer at the project’s github site.
