Werkbench 1.1.0 Preview
Saturday, August 4, 2012 at 8:45AM Werkbench developer Bolasol has released a little ambient piece using the upcoming 1.1.0 update.
Here is some ambient music generated from a single sample in real-time. The combination of pitch shifting and feedback makes for giant percolating pads. Enjoy!
All of the sounds are being sampled with the internal mic and speaker. I live in a noisy place so there is a lot of texture added with each level of feedback.
This video features WerkBench 1.1.0 which should be out in the first few weeks of August. I am making use of panning, high-pass filters, and decay settings for each step. These will be available soon!

That's excellent news! Panning has been on my wish-list for this creativity-inducing app. I'm glad they're continuing to develop it.
this is what "sample lab" needs, pitch shifting!
My god, this man is the master of improvisational (and inspirational) sampling.
very cool. i forgot about this app. now on my radar.
No, don't forget this app. It makes me feel like a genius when I jam with it. I grab a bunch of random stuff from around the house, smack it and get groovy results even w/ the built in iPad mic. These videos certainly help for inspiration, too. I still don't care for the faux wood look, but the UI is incredibly good.
I made a track in Werkbench (all samples were sampled directly into Werkbench using the iPad microphone, pitch-shifted and sequenced into loops there, then arranged and mixed in Auria). I used a cardboard box, coffee cup, shaker, claps, children's concertina, mbira, and ukelele. Check it out: http://soundcloud.com/victor-lams/stuff-at-my-house.
