COMS.SON.E. - LiSSess – Paulo Motta Live Streaming Sessions 2021-22 Vol. IX.

In this live streaming session, and later in their reprocessing, listening to the sounds created played a fundamental role, in addition, obviously, to the synthesis itself. In these sessions, the predominance of the transience and volatility of electronic sounds conditioned to the synthesis process became evident, characteristics that, in addition to promoting constant discoveries of new sounds, themselves, highlighted the need to create musical forms concomitantly with the creation and reprocessing in real time of the tones. I highlight a significantly important particularity of this context: the fact that, in many sessions, the diffusion of the ambient sound occurs in a quadriphonic system and is transmitted in a monophonic system and in a stereo system. During the real-time synthesis process, in the case of sessions with ambient sounds difusion with quadriphonic system, the creation of sounds incorporates the conditioning of the space parameter and their behavior in this sonic context. I emphasize this feature, with the objective of highlighting the fact that the audios to be made available in a stereophonic system for remote listening, do not allow, due to stereophony, the listener to adequately experience the role that quadriphony plays in the original creation process. Nevertheless, listening in a stereophonic system (for which I recommend the use of headphones), presents its uniqueness and, in a certain sense, configures an auditory experience that, let's say, dignifies the original quadriphony; because these versions, in a sense, maintain the original characteristics of the audios, despite the latter originally incorporating the space parameter and, consequently, the displacement of the sounds in the original difusion environment.

These are audios in which I prioritized real-time synthesis with experimental input, which were later reconditioned (when necessary), remixed and added with new electronic sounds. Notwithstanding this later work, I tried to maintain the formal and acoustic characteristics of the audios originally created, especially the ambient quadriphonic broadcast of some sessions, although converted to stereophony (which, in turn, can be appreciated more effectively with the use of headphones). by ear). These a posteriori interventions aim to maintain the perspective of the volatility and transience of electronic sounds, which occur during the synthesis process in real time, and the constant audio-perceptive transformations that make up the listening during the synthesis process itself.
