It was first sketched in Bitwig. Then exported to be further arranged, along with more recordings, in Ardour (Harrison Mixbus 32C). Robin Gareus' x42 EQ was used on all tracks as a primary top-of-the strip for general highpass and lowpass filtering. Robin's VU meter and 1/3 octave spectrum analyzer also helped in seeing what's going on in the tracks in trying to keep some separation. Reverb is still the free Protoverb from u-he. The Calf exciter was used on the drone soundscape. u-he Presswerk compressor was used on some 'stems', while Harrison's XT-TG was used to hone the drums a bit. The mix was setup in 3-tier mode, allowing for adjustments at three levels: track level, 'stem' level and master bus. Mixbus mixbusses were used for grouping tracks loosely by category, hence called 'stems' to use a trendy keyword. A Faderport was used with Mixbus to make the mxing process flow a bit more. On the instruments front, one lead is from Hive: Melodic Enchantement and the other, reed like, from Zebra2: Arksun. The airy sound textures by Zebra2 (VSP Looking Glass), with one contribution by Discovery Pro (CHE Spectrum). The sub bass sound is also from VSP Looking Glass, for Zebra2. The piano in the 'chorus' (somewhere in there) is the Pianoteq K2 Dreamy. The acoustic guitar is as usual the Shiraki. Reamping of the guitar was done through Renoise's cabinet simulator. MIDI drum loop and samples are from the Loop Loft and soundscape texture from Black Octupus (Evolving Textures). The MIDI loop was put into Bitwig's drum machine and samples were manually chosen and added. For the remix, a loop was put into Redux (in Bitwig) and again samples were manually chosen. The sabar loop in the remix is from Wave Alchemy (African Rhythms). The remix was 'played' using a Launchpad mini. Ah, the voice is Francesca Genco from Soundiron. I think this covers it all. If you have any comments, questions, of any kind, please do not hesitate. I am still learning this and there is so much to learn !
