Jamming with Zynthian 🧐

Hi,

yesterday I tried to understand the ZynSeq a bit more. The same time I tried to figure out how to record videos with direct audio from my Zynthian to smartphone. Sorry for leaving the click on:

Instruments used:

  • Pianoteq Kawai
  • Versilian Virtuosity Drums SFZ
  • Karoryfer Meatbass Upright SFZ
  • Viola Ensemble I dont remember where I got this SFZ
  • Zynthian click

I think I have to dive the ZynSeq manual a bit.

Very nice little jazz performance :+1:. Love it! In times where AI music is growing this kind of real jams feel more and more valuable for me…

So… how did you insert a stereo sound to your phone ? Your way to use ZynSeq is smoother than mine, I have to learn why… :melting_face:

And you have to put the click volume down :face_with_hand_over_mouth:

Anyway, your little session IS COOL !! :star_struck: Relaxing and precise, but not mechanic precise… alive. How damn I won’t find the good words in English…

Zynthian Stereo out into Focusrite Scarlett interface was connected to the phone (USB-C) while recording.

Thanks for the kind words. I just forgot to turn the click off after drums were recorded…

Just recorded one after another, no quantization.

Remember that you can record audio directly on the zynthian, main stereo output and/or multitrack for several chains.

I still have to read some manual pages to read. Also interested in how to loop audio sources as well. The smartphone setup was solely for the video recording, which isn’t my usual setup though.

We currrently suppor this with ZynSampler and it can be done in several other ways, e.g. creating a soundfont for Fluidsynth, creating a SFZ for Linuxsampler or Sfizz, Using samplev1 engine. Using Sooperlooper. It depends on what your workflow is.

We are working on a new clip launcher mechanism that integrates with the sequence. This should be available in testing (Vangelis) branch soon but it will require some commitment from users to engage in testing before it reaches stable. We will describe what that means in a post soon.

Yes but doing video edition to synchronize two files, audio and video, is so much more steps…

Ps : not mechanic precise was a compliment, it feel life.
