After a hard day's work, I come home and listen to Martin. It's pure relaxation and everything suddenly seems great again. Pure bliss for the brain

I had to miss the premiere - it was very early in the day in my time zone - but it was particularly good to be able to see your comments, and the rest of the chat, as I played it back. Great set, and what a great community too!

Pouring in a cup of tea while playing an album's worth of epic sounds, I am amazed.

I used to have a cat that liked to do this. He was good at playing twelve-tone music. 🙂

❤ thank you for this brilliant live set. The musical and production quality in your work is outstanding. Couldn’t really find much ambient pieces that resonate with me like your music does.

The musical wizard does it again, takes us on mind blowing journey

Came here for the ambient jam, stayed for the adorable loving cat!

Kann leider nicht live verfolgen, hole ich aber am Montag nach. Ich wünsche allen anderen viel Freude und dir, lieber Martin, ein erfolgreiches Konzert! ciao herw 😎

Deep and spacey. Love it.

Usually asleep when these concerts are live. So really great to be able to be able to listen to this one live, and comment, whilst visiting Zagreb

Thank you for sharing your talent and passion with us. This is a true masterpiece that deserves recognition. Keep up the amazing work!

Sounds great! Do you also have the synth, or just the manual? This is a real question, as I do collect manuals from synths, even when I don't have them.

@@MartinStuertzer Hi Martin. Haha, that is actually a good question. Yes I do have it. I got it only a few weeks ago so learning it currently. I also have a Quantum MK2 which I love to bits. I also collect manuals for synths that I do not have, I have found that they are very good to collect on Ipad iBooks, super easy to read and you can underline with apple pencil. Perfect for sofa days. So far the One has been very exciting, it has some incredibly powerful features. I was happy to find that you can actually build quite complex functions, assign them to custom variables and route into whatever you want. I for example build a mosquito (!) sound by using a random signal, applying smoothing to the noise source and changing the pitch with it. I also like that the UI is very fast to work with.

Great music as always! Cheers !

Just discovered you by accident, though I don't believe in accidents only synchronicities. Been a fan of Tangerine Dream forever & then State Asure. It was only inevitable that I found you. Absolutely love it, find it very calming, also think that every studio should have a cat supervising. Love your cat, reminds my of one of my 1st. cats 🐈 Spook. You just gained a new follower, brilliant piece.

Got to love cats!

Absolutely amazing set; belongs to the very best of EM. And the cat is cool too.

Just lovely - the master of restraint! I'd be too tempted to be a bit heavy handed with one of the synths, and accidentally ruin the whole session!

@Martin : Montag, ein Tag nach deinem Konzert: wow, ganz anderer Stil. Part 1:Stepic wird intensiv genutzt und klingt äußerst dynamisch. Mir gefällt auch, dass es ein vorproduziertes live Konzert ist und du dadurch auf Kommentare direkt eingehen kannst. Part 2: sehr viele Dissonanzen zu Beginn, gefällt mir äußerst gut; mächtige Klänge Part 3: sehr schönes Bass-Thema; offenbar setzt du alle sichtbaren Synths ein, sehr viele unterschiedliche Klänge, rückwärts gespieltes Echo: äußerst ideenreich Part 4: eine schöne Klangkollage Fazit: Das Konzert hat mir sehr gut gefallen, auch weil die vier Parts sehr unterschiedlich sind. Das würde ich gerne mal im Planetarium Bochum hören. ciao herw

Late to the party, I recently discovered your music via State Azure, and I’m delighted I did. On this set, part 3 particularly stands out for me on this performance. More of that please! A question if I may. On your live sets do you have a definite idea of what pieces will work well together, or is it more a case of playing what you’ve been working on over the period and seeing how they fit? I’m just curious. Either way, thank you for producing some wonderful music.

@MartinStuertzer

Thank you! The ratio of preparation and improvisation is different from set to set. Usually I prepare a few sounds and patterns, which work together in a good way. But there are also sets, in which I start with an empty project. When a lot of melodies and rhythmic elements come together it requires a higher grade of preparation.

I am SUCH a big fan. Great stuff. BTW, I'm guessing your cat plays drums? Just wondering.

This was awesome (as always)! Did you get rid of your small modular case?

@MartinStuertzer

10 ай бұрын

I still have the small cases but at the moment they are not in my studio. There is not enough space to set up everything at the same time.

Looks like the last few minutes were a collaberation with your cat :)

That track 38:30 is incredible, hopefully i will be capable to do something similar in the future. If I could be half as good i'd be pleased.

Hi Martin, in this video and in general, are you using some tool to recording/playing loops, right? Are you using MIDI looping (on Ableton) or what instead? Thanks for your music sharing!

This reminds me of my most favourite...Interstellar Soundtrack by Hans Zimmer

Fantastisch, vielen Dank! If I may ask: The core in Bitwig, aside from mixing, is ENSO and some Stepic Presets I asusme? It is magic what you make out of this. So, the preparation of your live sets is (of course aside from composing): Finding the sounds, arrange and mix them in BItwig, prepare Stepic and youre good to go?

@MartinStuertzer

10 ай бұрын

Yes, I used both Enso and Stepic for this Set. Programming the sounds so they fit together well and deciding on which parts I sequence and which I play live are the most important parts of the preparation.

If you could have just one synth for your style of music, which would it be. I really enjoy your concerts. Ive been wanting to get a synth. I mainly have romplers (fantom 8, kronos, motif) for other styles of music. But Im looking for a synth to learn to program that also has tons of that scifi/ambient sounds.

Perhaps upload some of these shows in hi-res, loss-less format (flac) somewhere? I'd pay money for that. (I already bought several albums on bandcamp.)

Martin you might want to think about the story when doing a live set. I know the concept is space ambient but the Parts are without a story. Just drifting through time and space. A narrative would vastly improve things from an interest pov. Peaceful sounds though.

@MartinStuertzer

I don't like the idea of conceptualizing music because it limits the listener's own imagination. I got a lot of messages from people who told me about their own journeys that they had while listening to my music and I like that a lot. Also I am very bad at storytelling and prefer to make music and tell a story on that layer.

Hi Martin - it was perfect as always. How do you find the Push 2 with Bitwig? Do you still have the Push 3 or was it a demo unit? Many thanks for your music and your teaching!

@MartinStuertzer

Push with Bitwig is ok, although I find it confusing that the clip launcher is horizontal on the screen but vertical on the Push. My Push 3 needs to be sent back to Ableton for repair and it literally takes weeks to get any kind of response from Ableton. Not cool.

Hello Martin. Thank you for sharing your journey with us! Technical question - I can see you have a need for at least 20+ line/instrument inputs in your setup. I can barely make out the MOTU rack-mount device along with a few others in your rack in the back corner. Do you have a video that explains your interface setup for all these instrument ins, and what type and models of gear you use? I'm assuming at least one ADAT type input box, and maybe more ... paired to something that interfaces with your system. OR, maybe you have an instrument mixing console out of camera view that you use? I'm learning... Nochmals vielen Dank und einen schönen Abend!

@MartinStuertzer

10 ай бұрын

I have another rack that is not in the video because the camera stands on top of it. There is a RME 802 which has 12 inputs. I also use both ADAT inputs for 2x8 channels. The rack that you see in the video has an UAD Apollo, that I use as Adat pre-amp and a Focusrite pre-amp. The motu is one of my two midi interfaces, I have the Motu Midi Express 128 on both sides. I did a few setup videos but I am not sure exactly sure where to find them now.

@@MartinStuertzer Thanks for the information Martin - I appreciate it! I'm replacing my old MOTU Track16 with a MOTU Ultralite mk5 ... It's time for more inputs and more modern hardware with modern driver support. I've been reading up on ADAT expansion - looks like adding a Behringer 8200 could be a super affordable way to go if/when the time comes. :)
