Subject: any MOTM trumpet players out there?

From: Aaron Day <aaron@...>
Date: 2004-12-21

Hi all-

I just dusted off my trumpet and have begun some experimenting w/ using
my Oakley envelope follower + MOTM filters and EGs to shape the tone.
Bleh. OK but not really innovative. Haven't built my
hylander+davidson+stooge miniwave yet which might be giving me more
interesting results.

Anyway, short of plugging in an Orville (don't have) or building an MSP
patch (next on the list) have any list members experimented w/ trumpet
(or any other non-reed based wind instrument--trombone et al) and
modular ? Trumpet doesn't anywhere near the overtone series that a reed
instrument has BUT it does have really quick control of the volume and,
as far as monophonic instruments go, a tendency to build wonderful
melodic elements w/o even trying.

Yes, I was a marching band geek. Sulphur Louisiana. Standing at
attention while the fire ants screamed "attack!".
