I Can Explain...Everything/I Choose Indecision - 190814

Sponsored by "The Grateful Dead".

...EVERYTHING

Repeated yesterday's experience with the Loop Loft loops - different set today - DanceGate - and made up a fairly random beatbox drum part in CE5. Then programmed a number of VST plugin parts using the Yamaha DX100/Phonic Firefly/Sophia_1_1 2y2les/ Gargoyle Intereference (not my spelling...). I was checking out another plugin, when I decided it was good enough to use in a separate track, so that lead to...

...INDECISION

Programmed a trance-y part using Predator Dance. I was attempting to programme drum parts using HALion One T8AnalogKit, but I kinda ran out of steam, so I decided to leave at that for the day.

More work tomorrow (hopefully)...

A Plague On Both My Houses - 010414

Sponsored by "Deep Elm".

Had a busy morning this morning, and found I didn't have time to track guitar/bass parts, so I decided to run up a quicky electronic track in CE5.

Programmed various VST plugin parts using the Yamaha DX100/Phonic Firefly/Viral Outbreak init/Motion 2.8 Opium TC/ Sophia_1_1 departure.

Essentially, I copied the original MIDI part for init and applied it to the other two parts, moving them around to suit. Cheating, I know...

Since there wasn't much else to do with the track, I decided to mix and master it. However, the departure part didn't seem to like my mastering settings, so it distorted significantly. I decided to do a remix minus the departure part, and this sounds much better. I decided to keep the distorted mix as well, and will use it as an EP track in due course.

So, two tracks for the price of one then...;-).

In other news, I am getting quotes for servicing the Roland Juno-D. One is better than the other, but I suspect the other may be better than the one. If you have me...

More tomorrow.
