Puremagnetik Releases Pastfabric - Micro-Memory Splicer
Pastfabric is a micro-splicing machine that operates in real time with whatever you put into its buffer. It was inspired by granular microsound (such as Curtis Roads's work), and experimental tape splicing practices. Pastfabric takes cues from both the analog and digital realms to imbue your audio with everything from nostalgic glitch to shimmering ambiences.
Micro-splicing
Pastfabric records incoming audio in real-time to a 10s buffer. The Past control sets the scanning length. It then pulls out splices - somewhat randomly - based on the selected "past factor". Motion controls how often the splicer pulls new content out. With Duration and Length each splice can undergo time compression/expansion, chopping, glitching or sustaining into blurred ambience.
Effects and Fabric
Splices can be routed through space diffusion and analog aging effects. Haze is a blurring effect that diffuses the spatial source of the slices. Fabric adds analog aging to the splices, making them wow and flutter, click, pop, and saturate.
Between micro-memory splicing and effects, Pastfabric can turn a very simple sound input into complex repeating patterns, modulating, beautiful ambiences and much more.
