Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith - MakeNoise Tempi & 4ms Spectral Multiband Resonator
For best sonic quality, please listen on headphones or through nice speakers. My favorite speakers are Genelecs. :) For patch details - Read on...
This patch demonstrates how the MakeNoise Tempi can be used as the foundation for complex timing variations in a very predefined way, which is incredibly useful for intentional composition.
In this patch I have Tempi Channel 1 pulsing the "Odd" input of the 4ms Spectral Multiband Resonator. Tempi Channel 2 is pulsing the "Even" input of the SMR. These are the only 2 that remain consistent in their time - although they are phasing. Channels 3-6 of the Tempi are set to divisions and multiplications of Channels 1 and 2 by factors of 2 and 4. Additionally, Channel 6 is patched to the Tempi MOD Input. During the performance I intermittently activate MOD Mode on Channels 3-6, causing them to rotate.
Tempi Channels 3-5 are sent to the CV Bus of the MakeNoise to trigger Maths, Function, direction and clock of Pressure Points and X-Clock of Rene.
The Quantized CV Out of Rene is sent to the CV Bus and then to 4 voices, all tuned to different harmonies, that I bring in and out with the RxMx and the other mixers. I used Maths and Function as an analog shift register to take these sequenced voices out of parallel motion.
The DPO's Mod Osc is in LFO Mode, and is modulating the waveshape of the STOs, the frequency of the MMG, and Telharmonic Flux.
The 4ms SMR plays the main harmonic structure and foundational rhythmic voice of the piece ( being pulsed by the Tempi ). I am recalling 6 preprogrammed presets, each with different chord voicings as well as EQ settings. I am also unlocking a bass frequency to change the bass line note.

This by far one of the most remarkable materials in the internet today.
I’ve been watching this video for years now. Brings me lots of wonder and inspiration. Thanks
Thanx for sharing this look into your composition process.

A great combination of technology and human being, isn't it?
Beautiful, full of space & texture, I hear the Terry Riley influence, "Rainbow in curved air" rocked my world too.
I think this is the first modular demo I've seen that features natural sunlight!

Having discovered modular synth through LMNC, I think this is the first time I've seen a synth not look like it's about to fall over.

It's west coast style! lol
Good music is supposed to make you feel something. This cradles me in a warm electronic blanket. Gorgeous.
I think the tempi is the most enjoyable clock to use in eurorack.
Happy I found your youtube channel! I was listening to "Sunergy" while biking along the San Francisco Bay Shoreline and a monarch butterfly flew beside me while i peddled down the path for maybe 100m. It doesn't sound like much, but the combination of the setting with the music and encounter with a beautiful fluttering insect was as close to a spiritual experience as I think I've ever had. I look forward to more of your work (hopefully some more with Suzanne Ciani ).

Thank you for showing us an up close look at your wonderful performance ❤
This is one of the most coherent pieces that I've heard on a modular. So cool!
brilliant, beautiful, and sounds amazing in full surround! thank you, Kaitlyn. I was just introduced to your work.
Love the bursts of syncopated rhythms. They seem to go well with the colored flares that appear in the picture every now and then.
really lovely! I've just got hold of an SMR and been playing with it with Tempi for some great chord stuff. Think I need to sit with the manual though to fully understand programming custom scales, but this is truly inspiring. cheers for uploading. :)
Such a beautiful musical realization. I love your sensibility for timbres and space. A soundtrack waiting for a movie. You've put my day in perspective!
This is the most musical performance with modular synth I've heard for many years. Wonderful!!!!
Very nice watching you compose music on that instrument. Reminds me of my days at Mills college in their electronic music program. Lovely compositions.
I just ate a sandwich to this and I don't regret it.
This is great love all those modular sounds. Very calming but at the same time busy and random.
Kaitlyn you are the queen of the synths. your work is blessed by mother nature who gives us an insight in her beuty through your synth creations! so blessed to hear your/natures music!
I absolutely love what you are doing. I hope that you do some live pieces sometime in the future, I would love to see it done in person :)
Gratifyingly complex. Love it!
Glad I found this in the morning, great waking up music!
Stunning.
So beautiful! Love the sunlight in the video too
Such a late comer to your channel. Inspiring stuff. Love it
Wonderful work! I could watch and listen the whole day! Thank you.
Really great. Raising the bar with this beautiful composition.
just stumbled into your channel I am listening to a lot of modular stuff as i plan on building a mod system from scratch....really enjoy your work I can hear a few musical melody lines you have going + rhythm beat it feels like world music meets smooth jazz in a modular context very cool
Thanks for the detailed patch notes!
I love hearing polyphony on a modular!
Wow, I didn't know you can recall presets with the 4ms SMR. Great work.
Great! You girl rock! My favorite speakers are Genelec too. I'm listening through my 4080's right now and this sounds amazing.
Modular doing what modular does. Interesting soundscape with some nice modules. Nice rig.
