We kept the ensemble small but recorded up to five combinations of sounds at a time, as this creates a much more interesting and natural response in the space itself, creating new singular sounds which couldn’t be recreated by stacking individual instruments.

• C - Close 
• M - Main Array: A combination of Tree Microphones and Outrigger Microphones
• R - Room 
• MX - Mix: This mic position is a custom blend of the above signals, created by mix engineer Joe Rubel
• P - Plate: The samples processed via a Plate Reverb
• S - Stretched. The samples stretched 2x to create a pad like effect 
  

For the newly initiated, Evolutions are hyper-long articulations that change sometimes subtly, sometimes radically over time before looping. We organise these on a grid so you can plot which evolution or ‘Evo’ sits on each of key range, recorded across 12 intervals, and arranged on a 10 x 32 grid. Enjoy instant gratification with an ever changing kaleidoscope of progressive articulations, with infinite possible combinations.
