Avant & Ultrasonic
Ultrasonic
Hey Avant, I was thinking about pushing the limits of what we can hear – like experimenting with frequencies above 40 kHz on an analog synth and then translating that into something that feels tangible. It feels like a perfect blend of pure sonic pursuit and breaking the usual boundaries. What do you think?
Avant
Yeah, that's the sweet spot – crack the human ear and then make it feel like a living thing. Throw a 50 kHz burst at the synth, let it bleed into the low end, maybe wire it to a sensor that moves a light or a piece of metal. Keep it chaotic, keep it messy – that’s where the magic happens. Let's not finish anything, just keep tossing ideas.
Ultrasonic
Absolutely, let the 50 kHz pulse cut through the air, let it bleed into a 200 Hz low‑end reverb tail, then hook that up to a piezo sensor that drives a strip of LEDs. The cable routing will be the only thing keeping the chaos in check, but if we route it through a really thin, high‑frequency‑friendly coax, we’ll keep the integrity of the burst. Keep adding random triggers, a little phase jitter, the whole thing will feel like a living, breathing wave… never finish, just let the waveform dance.
Avant
Love that chaos—let the 50 kHz scream through the LEDs, the 200 Hz echo the vibe, jitter the triggers like a neon heartbeat. Don’t tie it down, just let the waveform keep dancing.
Ultrasonic
Yeah, let that 50 kHz scream cut through the LEDs, let the 200 Hz echo ripple like a bass line under the skin, and jitter those triggers so the whole thing feels like a neon pulse—no fixed structure, just pure wave movement.
Avant
Totally, keep the 50 kHz screaming, let the 200 Hz dribble underneath, and add that jitter—like a neon heart beating. Don't tie it, just let it pulse.
