Patched something nice up earlier
I think it was max = to the number of participants?
Also, I guess I really need to get off my ass this weekend
Yah, pretty open ended, anywhere from 1 to 11 bits is fine.
I'm finding it hard to concentrate to record stuff while the A/C is ratttling away in my window, and even more difficulty with being able to listen closely to tracks on my computer to edit them. Hopefully sometime soon there'll be a slightly less stifling stretch of weather! I also had the notion to just go sit in the park to field-record some things, but I don't want to be more than four feet away from the ^%(& rattling A/C.
We had a fabulous thunderstorm yesterday and the temperature dropped about ten degrees for an hour, so I was actually able to open the window and record some stuff with the last bits of rain in the background.

I finally recorded something last night, 30 mins of guitar through M3, Polymoon, Ottobit Jr., Hedra, Enzo, Mood, Rubberneck (with Pitch Fork in the loop), Tensor, Ghost Fax, Superball, Marshmallow and Tera Echo (not all at once as far as I can recall).
I've chopped out five sections of around 1-2mins and uploaded them for your amusement.

Thanks !
I uploaded some more sounds this morning, ther start with 20200709, I know that some people prefer short snippets, sorry about that my sounds are quite long, don't hesitate to cut inside !
Just grabbed a couple more

En Douceur, Des Langues du Feu and Mon Premier Orgue... all sound very useful to me. I haven't had to think in French for over 30 years, so you're making my brain work overtime

I guessed two of them correctly, but had to resort to Google translate for one of them.

You should be set!
I have built up a l'il heap of sounds over the past few days, so I'm going to sit down and edit them tonight + upload. I tried to be as minimal as possible, so hopefully they'll be fun for others to stretch/mangle/manipulate.

I just uploaded some sounds made entirely with the Moog Matriarch. I sat down with it earlier today and really lost some time just messing around. Hadn't done that in a long time!
Still hoping to get a change to record some baritone or mandocello sounds too, but not sure if it will happen or not

Deadline isn't carved in towering mountains of stone, but don't put it off too much longer.
Meanwhile, I got my stuff posted. Field recordings of rain, some lyre plucking, and a bunch of messing around with the Conway's Game of Life midi sequencer.

Got 1 hour last night and finally managed to upload some tracks i recorded in the last months, i wanted to record a couple more ideas but right now all my gear is packed and i won't be able to play or record for the next 2-3 weeks. I haven't heard any track from the other participants yet, but i'm excited to see what we'll come up with this time. I'm gonna try a different sample processing approach that the last one, already have something in mind.

I uploaded a few more sounds for everyone to use. Some random noodling on the mandocello and baritone. Also, grabbed some of the fan in our room and a few of my watches ticking away. I was trying to capture some other sounds, but the dog started following me around the house, so I recorded him panting and having a drink as well.
