Improv_Session_001 | Built from scratch with Torso T-1, Roland S-1, Elektron Digitakt

Press play, there's no turning back, regardless of the outcome. - Today, I invite you to immerse yourself in my first fully improvised Minimal Techno session, created entirely from scratch with the Torso T-1. I challenged myself to spend approximately 10 minutes getting into the zone and crafting a jam session from a blank canvas.

While I'm relatively new to this exercise, it proved to be a promising session. I learned a great deal in such a short span of time, particularly recognizing the need to enhance my build-up and take bolder risks with the engine. In this session, I played it safe, experimenting cautiously without pushing boundaries too far. Nonetheless, I'm pleased with the outcome of this session.

I hope you enjoy the hangout. Thankful for your time over here, as always.

SETUP INFOS:
I feed the audio from one synth/box back into another. Here's how my current routing is working: Roland S-1 Main Out into Digitakt Input L/R. Digitakt MIDI Out to Roland S-1 MIDI In. Torso T-1 MIDI Out into DIGITAKT MIDI In. Torso T-1 = Main brain / sequencer of this setup. MIDI sequence the Digitakt + Roland S-1. Digitakt = Kick, Snare, Hi-Hat, Percs, Samples and Bass. Roland S-1 = Main synth/Lead. The whole jam is recorded through Overbridge and slightly mastered in Ableton Live.
