JASON DONNELLY: Jason Donnelly with Gearwire.Com and the Access Atomizer and Speak & Spell. A couple of things to note before we begin: the Atomizer has an automatic tempo detection, and that is probably one of the coolest features other than what it actually does to the audio because it will automatically sync all the internal effects and settings and tempo of the TI to the loop itself that's being sampled.

We're going to throw it for a little curve here. This is more of an experimentation; if this doesn't work, I'm going to load a loop and put it through here, but we're going to throw it for a curve and we're actually -- I think the proper phrase is we're going to throw it a curve. We're going to throw it a curve and use something that is not really looping, which should be our Speak & Spell. So, it's not really a beat loop or anything; it's just kind of a spoken weird cheap robotic toy that will be sampled, and we'll see what that can do.

Let's see, Atomizing Audio: Press and hold the A1 key on your keyboard, the next A up from the tempo key. Okay, so A1 and you should hear the incoming audio being swapped to the pretty quick loop switch, assuming you taped -- or tapped -- sorry -- the tempo in quarter notes. Okay, so that's looping. Let's see what happens when we use something that's not really a loop per se.

Here we go. We're getting something [JASON PLAYS SPEAK & SPELL WITH ATOMIZER]. Oh, wow. Okay. Cool. It's doing what it claims to do. Wow! Let me connect the camera up to an audio signal that's direct from the mixer so you can hear this better.

Okay, let's give this a go. [JASON PLAYS SPEAK & SPELL WITH ATOMIZER] Okay. Well, apparently [JASON PLAYS THE ACCESS VIRUS SOME MORE] not quite as impressive with an audio source that isn't a constant looping sound. As you can see, what it's doing is it's grabbing bits of samples from the Speak & Spell at various points [JASON PLAYS THE ACCESS VIRUS]. It's kind of cool. It's a little rhythmical. There's a filter in the mod wheel [JASON MANIPULATES THE MOD WHEEL]. It's also a crossfader and a mixer that goes between effected and real time, so you've got your sample and then, if I put it up here in the up position, you can actually here the audio source unaffected, right there. If I go back down, we have the effected sample. [JASON PLAYS THE SPEAK & SPELL AND ACCESS ATOMIZER SOME MORE]

So anyway, that's that in a nutshell my little experiment here. Not quite as impressive. What I'm going to do is pump a loop through this and show you how it should be used and the way that it was intended to be used which I'm hoping will be a little more impressive, so stay tuned.
