As does Ableton. So it's not the software side I'm unsure about. I have that working already. I'm still a bit on the fence on how I would wany my setup to be and if I'm overlooking or misunderstanding some aspects of working with a patchbay.

You misunderstood my comment. 

I asked you, "What do the Ableton", your quoted DAW, "forum users say on the subject of patch bays? "

What did the Ableton forum suggest?

CbB has an external FX plugin.

Hey Wookie , I Really like the Blade Runner feel I get in several parts of this. Very cool !  A Very nice production and I'll bet you had a good time doing it. Very impressive.                  Loved it ..

Building the drone was an interesting experience, nice to know you found it cool.

Thanks for your time, ears and kind comments.

I really enjoyed it. I'm a bit in awe of the people who make this kind of music. It's beyond me how you do it. 

Thanks Kevin, if I ever find out I let you know 😎

I like the way it sucked me in, and then it changed and held my interest.   Very nice textures in this one.  You never seem to run out of ideas!

Thanks Lynn, not sure where they come from, I suspect they are floating around in the ether and somehow they find their way to my furry paws. Appreciate the ears, time and comments.

Great song overall. Well produced and played. Singing was very good and up front. Except for the snare that I can't un-hear now!!! : )

Sorry Grem.

Anyone had any experience with the Intech Matrix MIDI controllers?

Hi Wookie

Like this, very much up my street

Cool stuff my friend.

I notice you used a Moogerfooger MF-108S - I had a real problem with my Moogerfoogers after aa overdue  software update, but I have got them all working again except the MF-108S - have you had any issues with yours??

Cheers

Nigel

 

Thanks for the listen and comments appreciated. Seems to work fine, but their authorisation method is somewhat shaky. Just today I had to login to reauthorise, what a performance, first I had to login into the website, then the app would let login via the app to authorise it.

Thanks again Nigel.

The fred title alone was worth the listen Wookiee 🙂 

Well one does try everyone apparently thanks for the listen and comment. 

PS ear buds located for you know what 

Nice, though the drone could do with just a tad more movement, not more chords just more modulation.  

Sweet little groove established from the start. Then we have some smooooth sax, nearly funky bass line, nice jazz sounding guitar.

Nice.

PS Left a comment and like on soundcloud subscribed weeks ago "t"

Nice.  

Nice touch, a hint of William Akerman about the sound.  

Obviously you have been a very naughty boy again Nigel, not sure what was naughty but....

Liked it. 

Probably get more traction if you posted individual tracks.

Nice track, good balance in the mix, all the voices clear and present, nice use of brushes on the drums, what did you use?

That drone is both distracting and mesmerising at the same time - I really like the synth work - has  a kind of Vangelis feel to it. I feel that if Einaudi wrote synth pop - this is the kind of music he would make. There are a lot of layers to this - and I'm not one who really appreciates electronic music - but this is very cool. 😎

Andy

Electronic music does not appeal to all, my fascination I blame on an ARP synth I stumbled across at college one day. Thanks for the listen good to know you found it cool, an6 association with Mr Vangelis is appreciated. (Though I really am not worthy)

but it's in the thread title? hmmm 🤔

Obliviously the title isn't scanned. 

For those wondering F E  D E X is a problem word due to the recent round of spam.

For example, if I record the guitar dry, I'll use TH-U or Guitar Rig in the FX bin for my sound.  The Pro Channel is then free for mixing duties.

That is how I use the FX bin and the PC. Occasionally I may use an FX Chain in the top of the PC just for simplicity, things like Widen, or Width plugins.

Hi Wookiee, I like it from the one minute mark onwards, the first minute sounds exactly like my lungs, wheezing and groaning 😉

 

Rik

Nice to know mine aren't the only ones wheezing and groaning.  The first minute establishes the drone, which is constant throughout, does dissappear into the mix. Thanks for the ears and k8nd words.

@Kevin Walsh nothing wrong with mix 3 still has a pleasant warm sound. Balanced mix overall I can hear all the different voices.

Thanks, I've posted Mix 3 that I think addresses the top end.

Been distracted by some sound design, should get a chance tomorrow.
