Harsh digital noise is a nice plugin..
thanks for the replies

does anybody know how to get these type of sounds by another method?

thanks for the reply!
What I actually mean is how to get the raw data and convrt it to something musical .No need of text to speech features.
Alva noto uses this method a lot so I am trying to understand his method.

here is an example

Can anyone point some tips on how I can import text, pdf files to convert them to audio sources?
thank u in advance

Maybe I'll make a video in the next couple of days showing my version of this technique if enough people are interested.

yes please!!

thank you for the reply though

field recordings???

Yeah, these days I tend to record environments like my back yard or a city street and use that material for processing into other sounds. If you get a particularly dynamic recording with some interesting transients involved, the fast-gating technique mentioned above can work ...

now tell me about it...

Very interesting !

I m still searching something like gleetclab for Pc.Anyone?

no no no !
I mean record quantization but whenever I play 1/4 the program snatches the played rythm to the grid when I play 1/8 it snatches to 1/8 grid , when 1/16 is played snatch to 1/16 grid , then triplets etc...all that in one session without to configure the record quantization in edit->record ...

I v found that too.I m on PC though is there an alternative except dblue glitch,suppatrigga or effectrix?

BTW I m really tryig to recreate these electricity sound effect(in absolute quality) which I don't think that this is about glitching sounds but sound engineering

where s the track?
ok found it!

can t understand what you mean could you please explain some more?

nice

are you just recording these appliances?

I am trying to quantize real played drums with he quantize to :1/4 ,1/8, etc
might there be a way to "auto-quantize" so that when played the program automatically finds the closest quantize grid to the played beat and snap to it?
