Hi! It all started with a single custom drumloop run through dozens of plugins, cut into pieces and rearranged to retrieve several versions that can be layered. That was years ago, using Cubase. Now I feel slightly awkward about that, but this material is way to good to leave it :) I took those few short loops and a bunch of other old samples to build a track in Ardour. Said samples include me screaming into the mic, a car and a lorry passing by on a wet street and a soda stream. http://images.ciao.com/ide/images/products/normal/555/Soda_Stream_Maxi__172555.jpg So far its almost all percussion. I intend to add melodic parts. Usually I build a "core" of a piece, consisting of 4 to 16 bars with complete instrumentation, but here I have a skeleton now, like was the case with "FM Casserole" and the collaborations with Folderol. I post this WIP to gather some feedback, as I wonder if the breaks and transitions are maybe a bit rough and whether I should extend some parts to provide stability. http://www.archive.org/download/woxitron/thorwil_woxitron_wip.ogg http://www.archive.org/download/woxitron/thorwil_woxitron_wip.mp3 -- Thorsten Wilms Thorwil's Design for Free Software: http://thorwil.wordpress.com _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/linux-audio-user
