Ultimetly I'd like to get:

  • a new 61 note keyboard controller. Not sure which one.
  • a chapman stick
  • a malletkat controller.
  • quality drum mics.
  • more but I'm dreaming here.

Be curious to know how people use Aalto also.

I pretty much tweakit live while jamming with the spd-sx-wavedrum on top. I'll also play chords or bassline with the left hand and playing a beat with my left hand/right foot on the spd-sx and doing backvocals. We are only 2 in the band but we both share musical duties. It sounds like a full band pretty much.

So far Aaalto is my favorite synth for tweaking live since everything is pretty much in yo face and patchable.

I've tried replicating the problem here in Windows 7 64 bit with live 9.0.2 32 bit and everything seems to work no prob for me. Opening/closing Aalto's window while playing the computer keys. No prob here, not a single click or dropouts.

Right now I'm pretty good with m4l in ableton 9 to manipulate Aalto. I realize not everybody has Ableton but for my part I'm good. I certainly would like to see some kind of audio input straight to the waveguide delay though. The lfo could use additional waveforms (I know you can use the seq but...)

I made a preset that I saved to the users patches in a folder of mine which is in appdata/roaming/madrona labs/blablabla on win 7. However when I use save as version after that, the preset is stored in programdata/madrona labs/ect which seems to be Randy's patches. Anyway to have to have them saved to the same location as the original preset?

Cheers!

Awesome! Quick save as version is so useful!

Noticed that as well. I though it was something with my patch. :)

When I try to save a patch that I pasted from the clipboard (forum patch for example), I have to enter the patchname in the dialog box even though the patch already has a name. I guess it's self-explanatory so no need for a question ;)

p.s. Perhaps also an info box to put comments on how to use the patch or things to try.

It might be a problem since certain characters like "/" are accepted by Aalto but not windows but this is probably trivial stuff to code for you. :)

Hi Randy,

I pretty much use audiomulch to record straight to wavefile. You can also record multiple waves files coming from a few Aalto.
