Quote from: Ivan Rex on February 03, 2026, 11:33:36 PMWhat are your overall impressions of working with this model? I had been planning to buy it for a long time, but in the end, my priorities changed. Do you feel that it has too many features, or, on the contrary, has it made your work easier and more interesting? I watched some videos about the MKII, and I find the multicolored lighting very annoying. I wonder if it's possible to reduce the variety of colors in the palette?

Yes, it's possible to adjust the different colors, and from what I remember from trying it, it was rather easy to do. The default colors of Bus 1 (orange) and 2 (teal) are ugly and I was going to change them, but in the end ended just sucking it up, I guess.

There are dozens of different button combos that you need to remember, or more likely look up, in order to access the functions behind them. This is not a unit you can use casually now and then.

There are lots of positives about it, practically unlimited length for a single sample (I think actual max length is 11 minutes per sample), zero cross point eliminates annoying snaps or pops in loops, and the effects are pretty decent, if not great.

The sequencer is a bloody nightmare, but thankfully I don't really need it much anyway.

Quote from: Balor/SS1535 on February 03, 2026, 05:52:34 PMIt occured to me earlier today as well that there was a seminar at my university that thought about pre-Internet literature that predicted or otherwise represented models of communication that are relevant in the age of the Internet.  Think, for instance, about how Burrough's cut-ups can be considered a model for hyperlinks.  I would argue that noise music going back to the late 70s has the potential to suggest ways of thought very significant to understanding what the Internet means for culture and society---such as Merzbow's long-running collages of culture in the 1980s, to how the origination of power electronics relates to the dissemination of "shock media" like gore videos.  I think there are many potential resonances to be explored, or, more specifically, interpreted out of already existing noise music.

Your post reminds me of Kenneth Goldsmith, the poet who claimed "[t]he internet is the greatest poem ever written, unreadable mostly because of its size."

Desolation Galaxies Rec. presents:

TJOLGTJAR: ,,Thomas" Tape

Ghosts of the old south gather again, to worship he who walks behind the rows... From ice-cold Mütiilation / LLN riffing and Burzum-esque synths, over classic King Diamond elements, to extravagant Southern Rock influences in the best Black Oak Arkansas tradition: Outstanding Illinoisan underground legend Tjolgtjar returns with a new full-length tape "Thomas". Two very long atmospheric tracks of unique outsider Black Metal art that will get under your skin - and mark Tjolgtjar, once more, as one of the most exceptional and authentic acts in the underground!

DESGRANGES: ,,Euphoria" Tape 10€

Third strike from the highly talented russian artist Desgranges, astonishing once again with his newest opus. Six tracks of transgressive Power Electronics, shining with straightforward, yet high-skilled and matured songwriting to reveal the delirious reality we don't want to see: Injected in veins, yearning for higher states of euphoria, only to find a pure madness in paranoia, rape, severed genitals, gouged-out eyes, persecution mania and the literal loss of the human form. Abyssal delirium opened by external reasons? Or does its seed already exist within ourselves? No matter what it all is about. There is no solution. There is no hope. There is no way out.

C – 42 tape, lim. 70
10€ plus shipping

Richard's set at Hospital Fest 2025: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bBNW-MTkViI

Very short but powerful appearance. My jaw hit the floor once I realized what he opened with.

There is this approach of tongue in cheek references to both underground music culture, but also popular culture. Plus perhaps also noise culture classics. When I got the ROTAT stuff with song "Raveheart", it is so simple and stupid, it pure magic. Just bursted in laughter WTF!? Raveheart!?  There are some of Finn noise acts who are pretty known for this type of thing, word play, subtle translation jokes, and so on... Moozzhead, Keränen/Testicle Hazard, Rotat..

Quote from: Balor/SS1535 on February 03, 2026, 11:27:28 PMhow the origination of power electronics relates to the dissemination of "shock media" like gore videos.  I think there are many potential resonances to be explored, or, more specifically, interpreted out of already existing noise music.

This has always been kind of interesting to me, as someone in my 30's, I grew up with the early internet when these shock sites like rotten and ogrish were pretty popular. The transgressive aspect is kind of lost when its always been so readily available throughout your whole life, compared to the 70s and 80s when you had to actually seek out underground porno tapes or medical journals or whatever to find this stuff. I can definitely still appreciate the pre-2000s noise that made use of this stuff when it took more effort to find, but for more modern projects it can just start to feel goofy and antiquated with how self-serious it is (with some exceptions when there's a really clear motivation or concept behind it).

I am kind of surprised there isn't more noise that takes a more humorous approach though, like Ivan Rex mentioned. Something like Smell & Quim with a focus on internet shock media. The original popularity of a lot of shock sites was for pranks anyways, sending goatse or tubgirl to someone disguised with a link shortener to get them to click on it was always fun.

Quote from: Balor/SS1535 on January 17, 2026, 07:09:39 AMI recently acquired a SP-404 MKII, and I have been spending the last few days experimenting with it.

While I will be reading up more on how it works, flow of components, etc., I was wondering whether anyone has come across any unique capabilities that might be easily missed/not immediately obvious?

(Any particularly helpful tutorials would also be appreciated!)

What are your overall impressions of working with this model? I had been planning to buy it for a long time, but in the end, my priorities changed. Do you feel that it has too many features, or, on the contrary, has it made your work easier and more interesting? I watched some videos about the MKII, and I find the multicolored lighting very annoying. I wonder if it's possible to reduce the variety of colors in the palette?

To be honest, I have up to this point been experimenting with it as a digital effects unit---which it does beautifully (it even works with my Trogotronic!).  While I have spent some time learning about the sampling features, there is still much more to go before I really "get it."

From the tutorials that I have been watching, however, I don't think it has too many features, as it really just seems to have the same set of features multiplied a ton of times.  i.e. I think it's analogous to a first impression of a studio mixer---so many buttons, etc.---but easily mastered once you realize that there are a ton of buttons simply because there are a ton of channels that all need individual controls.

I think the lighting actually aids in this, as the unit will change color in accordance with the "layer" of sampling you are working with---i.e. whether you are switching the banks containing lots of samples, or working in the interior of those banks between individual samples.  The lighting might also trigger for other things, but that's been the main one I have encountered so far.
