Medusa's Dream by Flohr published on 2022-09-24T01:54:23Z Starting to explore microtonal possibilities with the Max for Live microtuner device. Started out with some simple diatonic explorations and ended up returning to Ptolemy's Intense Diatonic scale which I had previously used as part of my Cartesian Meditations series of Eurorack videos on my YouTube channel. Back then I just looked up the hz of the notes in the scale and used the unquantized outputs from Rene and tuned each step manually. Microtuner makes it way easier and I am looking forward to exploring more complex xenharmonic scales. The other exciting thing about doing microtonal stuff in Ableton is that I can explore polyphony much more easily. This patch is Operator with some delay, chorus, and reverb. I originally had the project file for this just called Ptolemy, but after seeing The Glad Scientist's lovely AI art for it, I decided to echo the title of my original modular piece, Ptolemy's Dream, with Medusa's dream. The stone, or perhaps the one whose gaze beholds a petrified world, dreams of lightness. Genre Ambient
