I have this track I'm working on -- this isn't the final version, but you can hear it at http://avalon.net/~lucas/dt/ I like the track, but I have some ideas where I want to take it further. The interesting thing to me (as a gear geek) is how I made it. I used Vaz Modular to sequence and render all parts. The beta version I'm working with allows me to assign signals to sub-outputs, so I'm able to route in this case 9 different sounds to 9 separate outputs on my Lexicon Core2 sound card. I run each channel individually to my Yamaha Promix01 digital mixer. Vaz free-runs on one computer, and I construct the changes in the track with mixer mutes and effect tweaks. So every sound you hear was rendered live by my computer. I use the mixer to build the track dub-wise, and record the output on a second computer. Every sound is either synthesized from scratch (the bassline, the clicky percussion) or is a sample run through Vaz processing (the kick, snare, guitar, horns, and the organ-like sound). The guitar and horns are short samples from the Burning Spear album "Garvey's Ghost." My plan is to revamp the bassline to follow the original song, and have a female vocalist sing it. Dub-tech-house style! kent williams -- kent@avalon.net http://www.mp3.com/chaircrusher -- tunes http://www.live365.com/cgi-bin/directory.cgi?autostart=chaircrusher -- mix --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
