Metamyther Takes Us on a Wild Ride with Recursion Studio

Starting with a heads-up about the eye-popping visuals, Metamyther dives into what sets the Recursion Studio apart. Right from the get-go, they tease us with the idea that this device is not just any video synth – it’s more like a ticket to a visual dreamscape, without even needing a computer to get lost in its depths. Born in Brooklyn by the creative minds at Entropy & Sons, it’s a psychedelic trip waiting to happen for any performer.

Then come the nitty-gritties – Metamyther walks us through the user interface like an old map from a treasure chest. We’re talking five knobs and five pads, each with its own magical, mind-bending capabilities. It’s an intuitive layout designed for those who like their tech to make sense under stage lights. Even if buttons usually make you cringe, here they animate your visuals as effortlessly as grabbing a slice at 3 A.M. And let’s not forget the gold encoder that’s like the key to the kingdom, making selections easy-peasy.

Metamyther, showing us some swagger, naturally blends humor with tech guide expertise. The screen’s a touchscreen, a type he doesn’t usually vibe with, but surprisingly, it feels just right for the job. He highlights the loads of information available like a Handy Dandy Notebook, perfect for synth novices. Presets serve as creative springboards; you can venture wherever your muse leads, tweaking and turning till you craft something uniquely your own.

We get to see the Recursion Studio syncing up with external gear. Metamyther showcases MIDI controls and CV inputs, integrating Ableton into the mix for a full audio-visual spree. The Recursion Studio doesn’t just play along; it dances to the beat, capturing audio magic and integrating it into visual splendor. And with frequent updates from Entropy, this beast stays current, always ready for improvisation and new tricks.
