808 BASS on Korg ds-10 + Oscilloscope

live show tonight- live wire- michael nervous

i'm playing a show tonight thursday the 26th of may @ live wire in Chicago. located at Milwaukee and Belmont. it's a new club or new owner / name. i will be using the same set up i have been the last two shows. 1 dsi Belkin rockstar into monotron, kp3, mini kaoss & distortion. using the zoom r-16 as a mixer and to record the set. i use the iphone's ipod for projected video and mangle the sound using effects live into the r-16 as well. using a second ds to trigger the start and stop of patterns with out wires.

lecture

thanks to tony vega for letting me sit in on his lecture and talk about the korg ds 10 to his class today. It was fun and thanks to whomever checks the blog from the class. I had prepared much more music to play for you guys but enjoyed the time I had.

3ds photos in 3d- michael nervous- korg ds 10 music

these where shot on the 3ds!!!

This is part 1 of my review of the 3ds.

- tested the games and the camera
- the camera put the files into a single jpeg for 2d and an mpo for 3d I had to split the mpo file and put into a 3d editing program. i did not edit these photos as i wanted to show from 3ds to youtube how it would look (however the program aligns the photos - i did not align manually- that is why the single object photos look 3d and the ones with several objects appear un-aligned.
I spent 4 days trying to mix the video of the shots from the camera with other 3d footage I took with my fujifilm 3d camera with no luck. so i will show the videos seperate.

- overall this is the most elaborate ds system to come out. the ar games are amazing the use of the camera for non ar games is also amazing, the 3d looks great but does require some effort to adjust the lever to get each game and distance correct for your eyes-but once you do it's really good.

- i did not plug in headphones once i found out i could not insert the ds 10 software and was so into the games i forgot to even test the sound quality.

-they had a mii station where you create your mii and email it to yourself (not to be put back on your 3ds) I suppose had i been thinking i could have saved the mii on the sd card but i was more into the 3d camera.

part 1 of the song is just an edit - the next video will have more of it.

day 35 of the new album

I have been working hard on the album. I actually bought two new ds 10 cards (they were half off, I think they are going to be taken off the shelves soon). some off the new songs are really turning out how I want and some need a lot of work. I have loose plans to play live and even show a class what I do. There will more videos (maybe even today).

day 20 and 21

I have had some time to work on the tracks and will be posting some at some point today. I did not do any work on any songs yesterday and will have to say that day 22 was a day off.

michael nervous korg ds 10 - day 17 new album

here is a video I recorded in a cave with a 3d camera. The song was recorded into a camcorder through the mic input and the video from that camcorder was not used. the video was taken seperatly as i'm trying to get that part of my new album down (sorry for the non korg talk when it happens...it is a part of what I am doing on the album) -the 3d on the camera's screen is amazing. it even looks good on my pc. somewhere in the mixdown or you tube 's conversion something was lost. you can see in the video that it has a 3d effect at some points.

the song featured in this video is ready for recording for the album.

day 16 - brings 3d....and trouble- michael nervous album begins in 3d korg ds 10

video one did not work




video two worked, but does not have 3d effect.

these videos took me all night. now that i know how to get from camera to software to you tube i am happy. I felt a little taken at first as I made my own 3d camera setup and now have figured an easy way of uploading those videos as well. however being able to view in 3d is amazing. if you want to take the cheap route let me know and i can do a quick post about it.

korg ds 10 in 3d coming soon!

day 14 and day 15 brings new songs and videos...I hope

I was away for a few days and was still working on songs. I tried to blog from my iphone (I have done several times before) and i ran into some issues.The mobile blog seemed very easy but the web did not like what I was doing. my text was adding html like crazy and promoting the blog app I was using on my iphone.

several songs are complete (patterns not performance) and some new videos will be up soon.

On my trip I got very familiar wit my 3d camera and will be trying to post some video and pics to go along with the album.

Day 13 more new songs

Unable to post to YouTube right now -as I'm trying a new camera setup....will keep updated.

day 11 new michael nervous mono song finished

this track is finished!

DAY 10 - 2&R - NEW MICHAEL NERVOUS ALBUM

korg ds 10 in the dual mode using the drum machines as synth arpeggiators.
lots of noises. the tracks fell apart and were meant as a track not on the album. i have been working on it with the album but did not like the flow. somehow the sav got messed up and i liked what i did to it in the end.

Day 9 - New michael nervous album - song - krafty

the korg ds 10 sphere:

I spent some time with video software on this one- I was trying to get more familiar with the video software so when I complete a whole song I might be able to have a video idea ready at the same time. I'm hoping for 3d. I have put a lot effort in the past into 3d and have had great results...the problem was youtube. now youtube supports 3d. now the problem is my homemade rig for 3d won't go to you tube. ok so I have 3d software and a 3d camera on the way but my computer is outdated and won't support these things. anyway once I get the camera I will see what I can do----not the time for a new computer.

the audio is again untouched (WELL WAIT! HAVE i MENTIONED THAT THERE IS A 10DB PAD GOING INTO MY MIC INPUT ON THE CAM? I had to put the pad on or it would distort...anyway if anything that lowers the volume and does not enhance it).

this song has several versions-see what the final result is by keeping up with the blog.thanks for checking it out.

day 8 is here of michael nervous making an album

Day 8 is the song untitled - pansnc - Again this is no external effects on audio and lots on video. this song almost did not even get a save. I was not happy with it and started almost from scratch...other than a few sounds and ideas it is completely different.

day 7 - song 123432 - new michael nervous album

I added video effects as I am trying to get used to some software that I will be able to edit 3d. I think my computer is out dated and I need to upgrade. anyway it's not 3d but i had fun learning some effects....work in progress. this is still a live take into the zi8 camera i just edited the video result audio is untouched...if there is a small sound interuption it's from a bad video swipe.

lasveg - new album - patterns day 5

I actually used the dual mode of the ds 10 plus on this track. when I make the album I will have it on two separate cards using nds adaptor and ds 10 tool.

drnkhs - new michael nervous - test run - day 4 continued

here is a new song in the works -

day 4 -pic of setup for recording videos

joby gorrilla pod, m-audio 10db pad, kodak zi8, dsi, korg ds 10 and plus, iphone for pic and headphone splitter

day 3 video- mchl nrvs new material

This video was a sound test for recording directly into my kodak zi8 camera thru a m-audio 10db pad.

-volume needs to be louder on dsi.
-mic input volume up as well

I used a headphone y splitter to hear in headphones.

It was only a test of the patterns. Some of the patterns were created on earbuds and did not sound good thru full dynamic headphones.

overall I was excited to post this, but was not satisfied.

I was hoping to accomplish an easy - not editing way of posting video.

the high resolution of the camera made my pc run slow and the quality was grainy (on macro).
- I will leave lights on next time, reduce resolution and clean off sd card.


Album and live set up have been in my mind since I first started ds-10 and I have done this with drum machines, speak and spells, other circuit bent rigs and original gameboys etc.

....day 3 of the blog...day ? of the actual set up and album....
