Subject[Csnd] [Music] One girl, all alone
Hey hey,
this latest piece saw a lot of live Csound, played from a MIDI keyboard or 
recorded to the sequencer. :) I was amazed at how much the current Csound and 
my CPU will do in realtime now. This won't be the last time, I'll rely on 
that. :)
https://youtu.be/CudvZyI8FC0

There are several instruments: my attempt to create a piano with an extra 
metallic resonator, using waveguides (wguide1 and wguide2).

The strings in the intro are several slightly detuned wgbow opcodes with some 
mild processing, vibrato and reverb.

The bell as based on the barmodel with lots of sweet reverbsc.

The string slide towards the second verse is several wguide1 with some 
filtering.

There is quite a bit of vocoder, though very subtly used to back up the vocals 
and give a little harmony.

The strange reverb on the piano in the bridge is the piano passed through 
pvstrace and pvsmooth.

I could share some instruments, but they still look rather chaotic, because 
they arose straight from the experiments and I didn't properly clean the code 
up.

Lyrics are below.

*** One girl, all alone ***

Where all is void,
Just me in emptiness.
I have to make the world
>From the ground up all alone.
Matter and a universe,
And laws to make them move.
Isolated islands
Are threatened by the dark of nothing.
I urgently must tell
Processes to be.
All the creatures lives
Must be allowed to dwell.
-
No rest, no balm
For the suff'ring
Of this mind.
-
Be my sun
And hold me in your gravity.
And I will
Hold you back
And then rest
my heart.

Breathe! Think! Go into overdrive!
Maintain continuity for live on this world.
And now to make an entity
For the "me" behind the thoughts.
Raise a broken body's shell
Inside an outside place
And pull a personality from
Sticky, broken pieces
Are all that's left behind.
-
No rest, no balm
For the suff'ring
Of this mind.
*** End of lyrics ***

Best wishes,

Jeanette

Hi Jeanette,

great stuff and excellent sound design. Besides Csound, where are the other sound sources from?

Many thanks!
> Besides Csound, where are the other sound sources from?
First of all: I forgot to mention the wavetable harmonic drone, realised
with hvs1.
The choir is Yoshimi. The "real strings" are LinuxSampler using the
Sonatina Symphonic Orchestra (SSO).
The piano is the SampleTekk/PMI 7cg (Yamaha C7) GigaSample library.

Various sequences/arpeggios and bass are Behringer Neutron.

The drum loop processed in verse 2 is a Behringer RD-8 (TR-808 clone).
The Xylophone is again SampleTekk/PMI orchestral instruments.
The slightly vocal treble/bass is the MakeNoise 0-coast (West coast, or
was it east coast... The Buchla inspired thing :) ).

Best wishes,

Jeanette
