New Album Out Today: Home Stories

Dear Ipsters,Today my new album „Home Stories“ is put, my fourth on Seil Records. It is record exploring transformation, using re-synthesis to take the known and turn it into something that trancends it. I hope to make a video on that process, if I can find the tiny hard disc with all the footage of how I made it. For now, enjoy the record!Love,Hainbach

Something from my holiday setup, enjoy!Love,Hainbach

Hauntology Techno With a Soviet Wire Recorder

I have been wanting to release this track for a long time, but somehow held of. Feels good to have it out!"I realize I am obsessed with the tone of old recording equipment such as tape and wire recorders, because it adds a feeling of "realness": instruments or voices sound like news broadcasts, interrogation room recordings or nature documentaries. It is like moving things into a past they never had, creating something new in the process. The MN61 wire recorder adds that sound to the...

Premiere: How to make music with a Nuclear Instrumentation Modular | SRS BOXCAR AVERAGER

NEW VIDEO: Patron Q+A 16

Hey Ipsters,this is one of the longest and most exciting ones I recorded. Loved your questions, thank you!Love,Hainbach

Can you power a tape Machine with USB?

Yes, you can! I personally can’t wait to replace my bulky Nagra supply or the dozens of batteries with a USB bank once the Myvolts Kickstarter is done. It performs perfectly with the Uher, Nagra should be no problem then, as that is also exceptional at regulating its power. Enjoy the video!Cheers,Hainbach

Video: How to turn a Nagra into a Mellotron-like tape sampler

This was a long time in the making, I had to do some research to confirm how and why this works. Enjoy!Cheers,Hainbach

Video: The looper that tied my studio together

Here is the video I was teasing yesterday - enjoy!Soundpack/music for the higher tiers will come tomorrow morning.Love,Hainbach

My video on the new library with Spitfire Audio

This was so weird to film at first, because Spitfire did a great job with their videos. I decided to tackle this from a different approach: what can you do with it? So I made music across a few genres and used it in two scoring projects I am involved in right now. Then I put in music by some fantastic artist friends in the video, which honestly is my favorite part of this, together with the interview I had with Leo, the developer.Enjoy!Love,Hainbach

New album out today / listening party

Dear ipsters,Today my second album of 2021 is out, Landfill Totems. This brooding collection of tracks was recorded on three statues of test equipment at Patch Point last year. After each track I sat down and recorded variation upon variation from each instrument, sometimes while they died under my hands. This resulted in an accompanying library instrument produced by Spitfire Audio. You can order the Album and Instrument as a bundle and get a free cassette on top here: https://sarecordings.com/...

Adding test equipment to a Synthesizer setup

Dear Ipsters,New video today that I hope you will enjoy and maybe have time to watch with me:“In which I do the thing I had forbidden myself both for technical and artistic reasons: using test equipment to control synths and let synths process test equipment. With the oftentimes wildly varying out levels of measurement instruments this is risky, but if you know what you are doing, it is a fun way to add just a touch of scientific-industrial sound to your setup. In this example, I am using amon...
