What it is and where to get it below: For sale at:
A skim through the components of the desktop version of shard. More or less identical to the eurorack version but benefitting from additional hands on control and a 9v battery option allowing you to perform live untethered from the wall. And free of the mixer if used with a wireless guitar hook up. Perfect for visceral live performance.
3 x oscillators with cv over pitch and gating over frag / shard / null 3 x osc intensity with cv External audio in with manual gain 3 x fragment / null / shard selectors Body contact touch interface for osc disruption.
Push button and drone array for oscillor and output gating and atrophy charge.
Presented here in a selection of short clips. Each highlighting an aspect of the unit, the results at the output and the effect it has on sources at the input. A machine drum is used on the first ext in section and a Korg Z1 on the second. I chose the Z1 as it's a gentle synth in comparison to any others i own, and i wanted to illustrate how much harder things like soft pads can sound through this unit in a context of power electronics drone.
The intro section is just running a static config through a delay and resonant filter. An example of what it can do in an fx chain. The rest is raw, un processed and with no fx.
The end.................
