VOLBot v2.1
stochastic and distribute audio modulator
stochastic and distribute audio modulator
Compositional practice is about constructing and organizing multiple layers of sonic material at first step. In production, we use DAWs to preset this material on separate tracks with either synthesised sounds in real time, or recorded material as sound files or live audio input.
This simultaneous overlapping of sonic material creates the sonic emergence with different balancing strategies, and mixing techniques. The volume control of each track on a DAW has been offered with sliders like a mixing console and scoring possibilities with the volume automation data for each track on the time line.
There are no practical solutions or an engine to creatively manipulate the balance of the DAW tracks at once with a common gesture in real time. ! The VOLBot is exactly filling this gap.
VOLBot is a super LFO ( Low frequency Oscillator ) which modulates the intensity/gain/amplitude of its input signal.
With the distributed audio plugin architecture of sonicLAB, you will be able to control an entire fleet
of DAW tracks together in real time with your parameter controls on the VOLBot server communicating with VOLBot clients on other tracks.
Be it stochastic complex control waveforms to interact with or simple touches, this data serving as intensity modulator will be shared among all existing VOLBots. This opens a wide range of creative possibilities for your production.
Since a stochastic function generates numbers on random iterations, although each instance of the VOLBot client will be on the same distribution range as the server, it will demonstrate a variation of the intensity modulation created by the VOLBot server.
VOLBot Server and VOLBot client instances are located on separate DAW audio tracks on usual plugin slots and the VOLBot Server communicates remotely with its clients.
