What time should my stream begin tomorrow (Thursday evening)

Quick poll before I make an announcement. 🤔🐴

Next video - Modular Cribz

So I thought I'd finally make a video going through all of my modules. That's something a lot of folks have requested and should literally only take 2 days.

...3 days later, half way through...

Dry, deeply frozen ice

One night during a subzero polar vortex in Chicago, I put some boots and double coats on my dog and took her out for a short walk. I immediately noticed that:

1. Due to the cold shutting dow...

Benn Jordan - Modular 31

A modular patch + drum machine + TTS box recorded at some point in 2017. Often used in the BG of my videos!

Weekly Stream #3 - Huge Firmware Update For Microfreak + M8 Tracker!

If you have any questions you'd like me to answer on the stream, let me know here in the comments!   

Update (what do YOU want next?)

Hey y'all. So this week, among a million other things, I've been making a video breaking down designing and building a <AUDIO SCIENCY THING I CANNOT NAME> for <TELEVISION SHOW I CANNOT NAM...

Dirt Machine 3.0 (Reaktor)

I don't know where this idea or structure started, but in 2002-2003 I was dead set on just making my own DAW in Reaktor that I would exclusively use. There are a LOT of versions of this with more d...

The Flashbulb - Untie (Demo, Unreleased)

A tune I wrote in late 2018 that simply didn't fit on Our Simulacra, or anywhere really. Honestly I think I was just subconsciously really inspired by Herbie Hancock's 70's records which I were lis...

Benn Jordan - Goodbye, Patches.mp3

This is one of my favorite modular jams of all time, and what I use to end virtually all of my videos. 

Weekly Stream #2 - Hyperion Synth Beta & More! - Replay

iPad Episode Progress (longggg) and ?'s for the STREAM TONIGHT!

I seemingly can't make anything shorter than a feature film, even with pruning down my app list a whole lot. lol

But - Give me your questions and I'll answer them on the stream tonight at 7...

Livestream Preference

Just optimizing how this would be best for everyone. Which would be better?
(also note that I really have no preference personally, nor does one really create more or less work for me than the o...

Thursday: Patreon Stream #1 - Hyperion Synth Beta

At 7:30PM ET, I'll have an exclusive look at the rather exciting looking Hyperion Synth in development from Tracktion. 

Robotic Drumming Junkyard Samples #1

A bunch of Polyend Percs beating the inside of a bank truck from low speed to high speed and back.

iPad Episode

So, spoiler: My next YouTube feature will likely be about iPad audio production (something I've always had a lot of...frustration with).

I definitely want to explain some of the hardware co...

Benn Jordan - 115BPM Retro, Progressive, Inspired

A tune I created pretty much solely for the channel. I believe some of the synths you hear are a Hydrasynth, Polyend Tracker, and 707 DLC for the TR8. 

Discord Rooms/Games?

Hey y'all. Happy New Year!
I'm told the Discord server is a little light on rooms for the amount of users we have. Feel free to suggest some room ideas.

Also, I'm not opposed to buying ...

Midnight Hangout w/ Benn & Noir Et Blanc Vie

I'll be hanging with fellow YouTuber and musician Noir Et Blanc Vie at midnight ET, the MORNING of NYE (or very late night on 12/30).
Since this is the first stream, it will not be patron-only,...

Benn Jordan - Drifty.mp3

A weird modular patch/song. Like most modular patches/songs, I have no real memory of how or why I made it. 🤷‍♂️

Benn Jordan - Six Air Machines (10 minute song)

This is the music probably most prominently featured in my Patreon video.
It made it in 2018 using a breath controller manually creating rhythm with 6 different wind instruments reading from a ...

BennString (Reaktor Instrument)

A karplus-strong synth I made to try and emulate some of the warm and unstable sound that comes out of the Rings module, yet doesn't seem to sound nearly as good when running the Rings source code ...

First livestream! Dec 31st, 12am ET (late night on the 30th)

Anything you'd like me to cover in particular? Maybe just an early NYE party and some Q&A?

Benn Jordan - Zeke Acid.mp3

Benn Jordan - Zeke Acid (2008ish?)
Probably the best "explainer" track I have. It's been shortlisted on about 20-30 adverts and somehow never once actually used, which is great because it's a go...
