CONCEPT
COSMOS is a drifting memory station designed to work with meditative states through
music. The design of the controls, functions and generated soundscapes are intended to
evoke, in both performer and listener, states and experiences inherent in meditation, such as
limitless space, fluidity, spontaneous development, presence, the ability to hear, tranquility,
the experience of subtle harmony and happiness enveloping the whole world.
The controls and functions were carefully selected and tuned in such a way that the performer
can remain as focused as possible on their music and inner experiences, with minimal
distraction from interactions that require the inclusion of the superficial rational mind, which
inevitably leads to falling out of the meditative state.
From a functional point of view, COSMOS is a large array of sound memory, in which recorded
sounds undergo constant recombinations, spontaneously generating an ever-changing
soundscape. This is achieved in three ways by a mathematical shift based on the rela-
tionships between large prime numbers (the size of all delay lines are different primes), an
asynchronous operation of the LFO, and modulation with a slowly changing chaotic signal.
As a result, it allows the endless layering and processing of various sounds, as in a looper,
but without an intrusive, repetitive loop.
Due to the constant shifts, working with traditional music with a pronounced tempo and
rhythm can be difficult. However, for those wishing to use COSMOS in rhythmic music, we
have released a special version of the firmware containing a regular looper, but with the
unique capabilities of COSMOS. For those interested in polyrhythms, COSMOS in its original
form provides excellent opportunities for this, including for working with drums and various
percussion instruments.
COSMOS generates rich, fluid and evolving soundscapes perfect for ambient music. Using
COSMOS, you can play an entire meditative solo concert while being in a spontaneous flow
and without using studio-prepared sequences, backing tracks and other things that can't
be a reflection of the "here and now".
Since COSMOS is a memory station, it requires an external sound source. This source can be
synthesizer, guitar, voice or any other musical instruments and their combinations hooked
up through a mixer. The guitar stomp box design lets you control the effects with your feet,
freeing up your hands to play musical instruments or to control other devices. The buttons
COSMOSUSER MANUAL
are switched with light effort so you can use it with your hands as well, as COSMOS is also
intended as a desktop fx module.
Turning effects on and off, as well as switching algorithms, makes use of cross-fades to
prevent the appearance of clicks. When switching algorithms, the contents of the sound
memory are transferred to the next algorithm and begin to be processed in a new way.
This allows you to turn effects on and off and switch algorithms at any time during the
performance, using it as expressive artistic techniques.
COSMOS is assembled with high quality analog and digital components providing high quality
sound and musicality. It uses top-class Cirrus Logic audio converters and Burr-Brown's famous
operational amplifiers that are highly regarded in the audiophile community. It has a sample
rate of 48 kHz with 24 bit resolution, and 32-bit floating point internal digital processing.
The COSMOS software is easily upgradeable via USB flash drive and has several variations,
including a traditional looper and a quad version that allows two COSMOS to be used in
parallel. This quad system creates four channels of output, and when you connect each channel
to its own PA, it creates very interesting possibilities for multichannel live performances.
COSMOS was inspired by the early ambient works of Robert Fripp and Brian Eno and the
Frippertronic system they developed specifically for this purpose. COSMOS is a further
development of these ideas and offers new possibilities for modern performers of meditative
music, as well as for those sound designers whose studio work requires rich fluid soundscapes.
