I’m really happy to say that my dub remix of The Original Rabbit Foot Spasm Band’s King of Wine is finished and available as a free download. Have a listen and download below:
Not only that but check out the cool artwork above by Charles Cutting!
The remix collection on the Music page has been updated with some other bits and pieces as well so go check that out for some other stuff.
Hi. This is something that I’ve wanted to do for a while and I thought now was a good time to do it. In short, I’ve sampled my trusty Stylophone in to a usable as a Sampler and Simpler patch in Ableton live. My goal was to try and emulate the functions of the original device (with a couple of extra features) and, if I do say so myself, it’s turned out pretty well.
If you can’t wait and just want to go ahead and download it, here’s the link:
Ableton Live Stylophone Pad (Note: It will only work with Ableton Live 9+)
And here’s a quick demo:
Here’s a more detailed explanation:
The original Stylolophone has a note range from F#1 to C#3, 3 sound settings and a vibrato switch. I recorded all of the notes individually for each of the 3 sound settings but I extend out the F#1 down to C#-2 and the C#3 up to B5 to give it more range and usability. The pack has 2 different racks:
This rack allows you to transition between the 3 sounds available using the dial on the top right and also has separate controls for delay and reverb.
Stylophone 2 has the 3 sounds running in parallel and a single control for space (i.e. delay + reverb together).
So that’s it. I think the controls are pretty self explanatory but if you’ve got any questions or comments let me know. I would also love to hear what you do with it so feel free to leave a link or send me something via my Soundcloud Dropbox.
