Tools

Musical experimentation

Basically, almost anything can be used for making music. At the moment my most used tools are:
  • Python, for algorithmic and generative part, either in real time and off-line
  • QBasic, Commodore Basic, GFA Basic (Atari ST), for the same purpose of Python. Using old machines have it's limitation, but sometimes this very limitation can lead to unexpected and interesting solutions
  • Modular system (picture below), plugins, and anything that can produce noise or sound
  • Field recording material (Tascam recorder + Røde NT1-a or Oktava matched pair)
