Morphagene Compositions

boboter · Post by **boboter** » Sun May 07, 2017 12:54 am

This thread is an attempt to have clean and focussed collection of music made with the wonderful Make Noise Morphagene. If we can make this just 10% as awesome as the 'Phonogene Compositions' thread, we succeeded.

Please re-post the tracks you shared in the regular MG thread.

To make a start, here are some instagram videos that either use the MG as the only sound source or have it playing along with the whole system. Hope you enjoy them.

This thread needs to be supported! Here are my original three pieces reposted from the original Morphagene thread. More in the pipeline!

Thanks for starting this thread. "Phonogene Compositions" is a long-time favorite.

I have a ton of MG-tagged posts on my instagram:

you'll also find original material and reposts on the Make Noise Insta:

Here are some longer pieces:

And here are some one-takes that all utilize the Morphagene in some way with synth material as the source. Some are recordings I made during beta testing, and none were really planned for release, but I released them to help raise some money for the ACLU when Bandcamp did their profit-matching promotion. I'll still donate any earnings that come in from this one:

My first foray into "found sound," leveraging some wind chimes in my back yard to produce an ambient-ish drone:

Cool idea and execution, nicely done. Makes me kind of want one of these now.

AMAZING stuff - beautiful composition.

So I just wrote this piece this afternoon. It was composed around a repeating phrase from one of my former pieces chopped up in the new Make Noise Morphagene eurorack module. It is also a musical rendering of last night's dream. Hope you enjoy!

Thanks for this, definitely making me want to get a morphagene.

Sorry for turning into a serial poster, but I'm having a lot of crazy fun with this module. Here's a quick drone sort of thing I threw together on Friday evening. The only sound source is the Morphagene, with some filtering and reverb from the MMG and Erbe Verbe respectively. The original sample is the Star Spangled Banner. The patch is pretty flexible and will turn almost any musical or tonal sample into atmospheric spa music instantaneously.

Morphagene is providing the drone. MG CV Out > Rings 2 Op FM damping input; a few notes are sequenced into Rings. Drums are a combination of the Black Mambo and Glassed kits in Maschine.

Here is the latest incarnation of my Morphagene Lunchbox,
with a controller added:

... and a trial track made out of a short ethnic guitar loop ...

I'm regretting not developing this one further. The MG sample and the 'melody' come from Spectrum through Rings in western chords mode.

This is a PDO arpeggio > MG TLA > Clouds pitched up. Two overlaid (but unsynced) passes of the same patch with the second one transposed down an octave.

Nice! You're having fun with your 'gene.

JonathanBedrava · Post by **JonathanBedrava** » Wed May 17, 2017 10:52 am

I like it! I am continually stunned by the variety of sounds that can come out of the 'gene.

An attempt to do something other than granular ambient soundscapes (nice though they are). This one is a glitchy mash-up of two sample loops, one being played by Radio Music, the other by Morphagene:
