{"product_id":"henke-robert-signal-to-noise-volume-ii","title":"HENKE, ROBERT - Signal to Noise - Volume II","description":"\u003cp\u003e\"\"The drones on this album were created using a Yamaha SY77 FM synthesizer from 1989. I have a special relationship with this machine -- it was the first 'big' synth I ever bought, and it has contributed to almost everything I've recorded over the past 30 years . . . The SY77 features six FM operators with multi-stage looping envelopes. I've always enjoyed crafting steady drones with it -- sounds that slowly evolve into something new over time. The output of the SY77 is routed through a Dynacord DRP 20 reverb and recorded into a DAW. For each piece, I recorded four tracks: one with a very low note, one with a medium-low note, one with a high note, and one where I played freely, following my intuition. The results were then edited and lightly processed to reduce excessive noise in certain sections. I also occasionally added reverb and pitch shifting, using my own custom algorithms. Signal to Noise - Volume II picks up where my 2004 album Signal to Noise left off, revisiting the same techniques and instrument twenty-two years later.\" -- Robert Henke Cover photo taken by Robert Henke on February 1, 2004, at Joshua Tree National Park, CA, USA.\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Imbalance Computer Music","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":48798850220251,"sku":null,"price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2295\/2925\/files\/ICM011CD_PROD.jpg?v=1779391362","url":"https:\/\/www.fusetronsound.com\/products\/henke-robert-signal-to-noise-volume-ii","provider":"fusetron","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
