about

AM MODE is a custom-designed software interface for electronic
augmentation of the acoustic drum set. The software is used in the
development a series of recordings, similarly titled as AM MODE.
Programmed in Max/MSP, the software uses live audio input from
individual instruments within the drum set as control parameters for
modulation synthesis. By using a combination of microphones and
MIDI triggers, audio signal features such as the velocity of the strike
of the drum, or the frequency at which the drum resonates, are
tracked, interpolated, and scaled to user specifications. The resulting
series of recordings is comprised of the digitally generated output of
the modulation engine, in addition to both raw and modulated signals
from the acoustic drum set. In this way, this project explores drum set
augmentation not only at the input and from a performative angle, but
also at the output, where the acoustic and the synthesized elements
are merged into each other, forming a sonic hybrid.

AM MODE was presented at NIME 2018, Virginia Tech.
