Working on a new level for Cell Sword. Finally finding the chaos I was always searching for in the premise. Thinking of calling it "Heart Thumper".
Yeah yeah this is me taking a break from Low Earth Orbit Adventures

🧵 #MIDI madness for controlling #Guitarix #Looper from my #Akai #LPD8…
The Akai's touch buttons / drum pads can send Note, CC or Program Change. #Carla needs MIDI CC to control plugins, #gxLiveLooper needs one-shot messages for erasing tracks, yet it needs something on-off for recording. Basically: “hold the rec button” – but how, I need my hands to play, so I need to toggle that.
Solution: Set Akai controller to note mode. Split the “keyboard” so that the upper 4 keys/drum pads get passed on straight in channel 9, and the lower 4 run in channel 10, to which MIDI Note Toggle reacts. Then convert anything note to CC using MIDI Note to CC.
Let's see of this works in a little jam…
Note that I do not intend to do a timed looping performance like these many YouTube artists overdoing Ableton Live, I need drone sounds from bass guitar to be fed into #AudioDamage #Descent #GranularDelay, so timing is not that relevant.
As usual, the delayed upload to YouTube: Exploring AudioDamage's AD061 Descent Granular Delay/Reverb.

Gear porn usually yields a few views on YT, while original music doesn't. It's almost opposite on PeerTube / MakerTube for me.

Descent: Journeys in the Dark heroes; Ravaella Lightfoot, Grisban The Thirsty, Ulma Grimstone & Logan Lashley.
Quick and fun. Got a soft spot for Ulma, as I think the face sculpt is awesome.
Paints and a few WIP shots on my blog as usual ... https://www.nerodine.com/2026/03/ravaella-lightfoot-grisban-thirsty-ulma.html
