VHS Synth, PaulXStretch, and imaginary friend: Tulpa

Tulpa: “…a type of willed imaginary friend which practitioners consider to be sentient and relatively independent.”

Ended up throwing a lot of toys at this one: the origin was a tiny fragment of recycled loop PaulXStretched (from one I made earlier, Blue Peter fans), and which provides the backing pad sound here.

I then hooked up A2M to that, and captured the resulting MIDI in an instance of Atom, using that, with lots of probability tweaks, variously gated and shifted by a combo of Rozeta Scaler and MIDIgates to drive Shockwave bass, Animoog log drum noises, and SEM clicks. The ‘vocal’ came from a duplicate of the same PaulXStretch AUM FilePlayer loop, this time randomly varispeeded by MIDILFOs and chucked through Gatelab. The squeaky gate sound comes courtesy of @jakoB_haQ ‘s ‘Android Gills’ preset in VHS Synth, my new fave noise.

All just set running in AUM, fed through good old Alteza, FAC Bandit and Bark Filter ‘Triple Band’, screen capped, and rendered out via AudioStretch and AudioShare. No DAWs or keyboards harmed during the making of this. )

As ever, feel free to enjoy/comment/spindle/mutilate/destroy etc… :)

  • It is very mystical. I imagine some kind of exhibition with pieces of art in the modert art museum. From all corners of all halls is heard that mysterious music. The closer you come to the specific art / object the music is moving, changing volume, making a different sounds, etc. Great experience :)

    @dakti : Thank you! That is a very vivid image. So vivid, in fact, that I think I may have to write a short story in that setting, possibly also using the original ‘evil imaginary friend’ idea of the Tulpa. (Writing, and occasionally publically reading some of my short, usually scary stories is my other hobby.) :)
