Gleetchlab/Gleetchplug

Post by theshoegazer »

I know not everyone here is down with computer based music making but I just thought I'd share these incredible pieces of software with you. They hae been out for a while now but I'm loving em. Both are 10.69€ ($14). Ridiculously good deals with shit tons of noisemaking potential. Mac only though.

There's the catch. Haha. I lucked out and just got a new Macbook Pro through school on the relatively cheap so I've been exploring all the lovely software readily available for cheap and/or free. I've kind of settled on this pair after dabbling in a bunch of different programs. I'll probably get a licence for AudioMulch as well when I have the money. So much fun to be had.

:thumb: I don't own my own Mac but I made my girl buy BERNA and it's the ISH !!! :love:

I'm makin a drone right now for another thread using hardware, but I'd be using the BERNA if it was here... Be sure to look up a frequency to pitch conversion chart and milliseconds to BPM delay time and your off in drone-space-bliss for hours... Really, HOURS :lol:

The GUIs on those look like ass but the sounds are great! Really cool. Here are some ones I like but they're a bit pricey:

http://izotope.com/products/audio/trash/
http://izotope.com/products/audio/spectron/
http://izotope.com/products/audio/ozone/
http://www.audioease.com/Pages/Speakerp ... phone.html

I could go on and on... you could drop $1k's on plug-ins without batting an eyelash so I tend to stay away from them! :facepalm:

Instead, I've been working with what I have Reason/Record/Logic Express 9 and some of the above plugs and am quite happy.

I love making music with guitars/guitar pedals and all the computer based stuff. It's all good!

I absolutely love the GUI's on both of those! Its kind of cartoony lo-fi aesthetic. On Gleetchlab you can change the color of the interface via a little color pallet on the top right hand corner. Try the demos. So much fun.

I'll definitely try the demos! Thanks again for pointing those out. Can those programs run stand alone or do you have to use them inside a DAW? Thanks.

Yeah, I really like the GUIs on Gleetchlab and Berma too. I bought them a few weeks ago. I either use my digital recorder or the program audiohijack to record them and then edit anything good I get later. They have internal recorders too, but with software I try to take measures in case there is a crash.

Le synthé is along the same lines. It's an emulation of/tribute to an EMS Synthi. I've never heard the real Synthi other than in recordings and this is definitely more digital sounding, but it's fun. The presets are labeled A-W alongside the patch matrix and they are really helpful to see what's going on. It's not your traditional synth interface. I'm still demoing it. I got the webcam control working and it was rad, but I can't figure out how to do it again. :facepalm:

Here's a clip with Klaus Schulze using a real Synthi from the awesome BBC Krautrock documentary. I Highly recommend seeking out the whole thing. :love:

Sweet. No problem. They are stand alone not plug-ins. Let me know what you think. Be sure to read the manuals before you mess with them. They are short and super informative.

Good call on the Synthi. I just paid for the license today. Loving the noises. The demo length of 8 minutes was a bit silly though. I could never build a decent patch in that amount of time.

So GC has the EZDrummer software on sale for $29.99 instead of $150 until the 27th. I figure that with Gleechlab, and Berma should be a pretty seamless electro thing.
