It was recorded live from a modular that I purpose-assembled from my larger system: 5 melodic voices and 4 percussion voices (all analog). Once the modular was recorded, I added minimal poly synth in some spots and I use the Soma Lyra-8 for drones and feedback droning. It was recorded with...
Hi everyone!
Long time, no speak! I hope you are all doing well!
I just wanted to let you all know that I've recently completed my first film score (also been doing quite a bit of commission work scoring various things of late).
Pour a drink, sit back, and have a watch/listen. All feedback is...
It took 2 months to get this piece to where I wanted it and am pretty happy with the end result.
These piece is composed of 3 voices:
The first voice is a dual bell-like patch using sine and triangle waves into a low pass gate. It took 20 hours to program the NerdSeq to play the part and it's...
Just released a new single, it was a lot of fun to write! It features my first time using my vocoder (BOSS VO-1) in a recording; that was an adventure. :)

After a lot of reading and research, I pulled the trigger on a reference headphone setup: a Rupert Neve RNHP and pair of Neumann NDH 20s.
Before taking the Neumanns out of the box I did a series of A/B tests just using the RNHP vs the headphone output of the 18i20. While the difference was...
I have released my first instrumental soundscape album, GOLDEN DISC.
You can listen to it here, https://donmusicpresents.bandcamp.com/album/golden-disc
or in the SoundCloud players below.
I’ve actually had this pedal about two weeks now but wanted to live with it a bit before posting about it. I got it for $279 from Prymaxe in NJ.
It’s REALLY good! The build quality is excellent and it’s fairly intuitive, though not as intuitive as a pedal with a display. There is an app you can...
Another day, another patch.
Okay, now I feel like I'm starting to really scratch below the surface. This patch is based on similar 'marbles' patches, but instead of it being a single pitch that ping-pongs back and forth, I did my own take on it by randomising pitch from the Turing Machine and...
As far as workflow is concerned, I have three sections to my setup.
SECTION ONE is 15U/104hp of Eurorack modular synths.
SECTION TWO are a few standalone MIDI synths (there are a couple missing from this photo, I swap them out depending on what I need).
SECTION THREE is another 12U of...
I've recently become very annoyed at my inability to write anything lasting with my modular synth setup. I found that as it grew, my actual productivity/usability with the modular decreased. This is not an uncommon phenomenon and one that I've struggled with over the past 3 years or so. Part of...
Greetings everyone! Picked up a new synth a month ago and have spent the past few weeks getting to grips with it, it's the Moog Subharmonicon, a pretty crazy 'inspiration machine' style synth. After many attempts to write something with it, I finally have something approaching an actual piece of...
