lead berry research - pk2pk
=========== "pk2pk" is an expression from signal analysis meaning "peak to peak" as in the full swing of an analogue waveform. This project came about with the acquisition of an old Tascam 22-4 quarter inch reel to reel recording deck. The concept was to create a set of minimal tech noire tracks using as a maximum 4 instruments. That there were no computers involved, which at the time was an humiliation, is now something to be proud of. The complement of instruments consisted of Roland CR-8000 and TR-606 drum machines; both playing and executing timing triggers. The bass lines and lead lines were hand played on variously a Roland Jupiter-4, SH-101, SH-09, Sequential Circuits Six-Trak, a PAIA Fatman and a Korg Poly-6. The tape stock was Ampex 456 and this accounts for the hearty sound and the tape hiss. The effects array consisted of Boss DSD-2 delay, PH-2 phaser and Ensoniq DP4.
