for this month’s meeting, we are honored to be host Electric Indigo! This will certainly be highly interesting to all of you interested in live performance and creative sound design.
Electric Indigo will give a short theoretical overview of Granular Synthesis, and present one of her favourite synths, the Granulator II, a free MaxForLive device by Robert Henke. She will also show Borderlands Granular, an iPad app by Chris Carlson, and how to integrate iOS apps in Live within OS X Sierra. In a second part, she will show how she controls sound spatialisation for multichannel setups in Live including spatialising effects from return tracks.
