Hardware-only Ambient Jam

Dawless Ambient Jam 001 [Tempera + Guitar]
Little clip from some explorations with my new hardware-only ambient rig. I’m feeding the Tempera with electric guitar running through a volume pedal and my Walrus Audio ‘Fundamental Ambient’ pedal.

Tempera is Beetlecrab’s stellar granular synth/sampler unit… I’m still just barely scratching the surface at this point, but I can’t say enough good things about this magical little box. Loving the way this instrument enhances my studio workflow as well as brings me away from the computer more by creating so many neat possibilities for minimal dawless ambient setups like this one.

Gear used:
Beetlecrab Tempera
Tenayo Lap Steel Guitar
Fender Volume Pedal
Walrus Audio ‘Fundamental Ambient’ pedal
