Subject description: Acoustic Interloper set
Here is my recording, had a great day
The final gear & software tally is the Nechville Universal Meteor 5-string banjo, Ableton Live including various DSP effects and one MIDi-driven softsynth, an Applied Acoustics Tassman 4 flute patch near the end, the Roland GR-33 guitar synth playing percussion, eBow, and a Mackie 1642-VLZ3 mixer.
I decided to camouflage my accidental slip into quoting a melody right at the end for two reasons. First, I can't fairly claim Creative Commons 3.0 copyright if I leave that in there. Second, I want to give the folks at Nechville Musical Products permission to post a link to this recording if they like, as a sample of the range of their electronic banjo. I need a clean copy for that. So, if you recorded off of the stream, you've got yourself a collector's item. I used an old trick of the Beatles to cover up the faux pas.
After the set my wife Linda asked me whether I was really playing that fast in a few places, or did I use electronics to speed it up somehow? It's all live.
to everyone who set up the event, ran the stream, and performed. Another great day, and always worth the time and effort.

my wild little dog frolics,

First of all, this was a wonderful event again, and it was a real joy to listen to you all. Many thanks for playing and/or organizing this event!
For my part, opening the show and getting it all going is always a pleasure and a little difficult. Listening back your own performance was in my case a bit embarrassing. Due to not wanting any weird drops in the stream I always set a buffer of tens of milliseconds from my audio interface to my pc. When playing along, its kind of helpful to listen before it goes into the audio interface, and not to what comes out of the stream. So that screwed up the first part.
The whole set was a patch with the Klee and M185 playing great roles, and getting totally different 'songs' out of the same patch with the modular. With the help of fast synced clocks in the first two parts to get all sequences going and using the rhythm, and help of cross modulation, noise and chaotic modules for a more complex drone in the last part.
I post here the unedited version, which includes a bit on front. Due to the latency settings it really feels like I screwed up the first part, so I suggest you start listening at around 7m30s.
