The auditory inkblot test.

Sometimes you need a sound that feels like it came from something real but it’s hard to place what it is. 

Something weird.

Something that’s not a synth or already going through a pedalboard.

Something that makes people say ‘what was that?’

Ink Rorschach is for the kind of sounds that start somewhere familiar and end up somewhere left of center.

It was recorded in creative and backwards ways to catch another side of the instruments and then manipulated beyond recognition in the editing process. This was done using a combination of non traditional playing techniques, obscure instruments, bowing, mallets, slides, friction mallets, odd mic placements, time stretching, pitch shifting, contact mics, reverse playback, hard tuning, cutting transients, creative eq and compression.

There are fifty patches total:

Aztec Death Whistle, Balloon, Banjo Harmonic, Bourbon Bottle, Bucket, Cello Mallet DI, Clarinet, Classical Guitar Scratchy Bow, Cowbell Matllet Piezo, Cymbal Friction Mallet, Dan Moi Proximity Effect, Duck Call, Goose Call Quiet as Possible, Goose Call, Guitar DI, Hand Drum Friction Mallet, Hum Contact Mic, Hum Contact Mic 2, Ibo Drum Bottom, Ibo Drum Top, Inside Bongo, J Bass, Kalimba DI, Kazoo, Little Spring, Mic Stand Gooseneck, Monkey Drum, Muted Ride Cymbal Knuckles, Ocarina, Owl Whistle, P Bass Bowed DI, Paint Can Mallet, Pan Flute, Piezo Noise Box, Plastic Kalimba 1176 Smash, PVC Tube, Rubberband Bass, Short Bowed Metal Rod, Slide Ukulele, Triangle, Trumpet Growl, Turkey Box Call, Uke Stereo Contact Mic, Vargan Acoustic, Vuvuzela, Waterphone Bow, Whirly Tube, Wine Glass Mallet, Wood Box Resonance, Xylo Rolls
