    track layout...

    Hi there, I deleted your empty topic so people will only look in this one :)

     

    Now, Copy your "loops" so you have a total length of around 10 minutes (or more) so that you would basically have 10 minutes of the same sounds (10 minute loop). Then listen to a track that you like and make notes of what comes in where. Then start deleting and modifying the "loops" where the artist that you are copying is is doing things.

    People may disagree with me here but I tend to look at things in blocks of 2,4 or 8. So a pattern may be 4 or 8 bars long and may be repeated 2 or 4 times. When shifting from one block to another "articulate" the shift with a silence (drop a beat on a drum for instance) or add a stab sound (cymbal crash etc).

     

    What do you think, good advice or bad ?

    That is probably a very good idea. You cant use Reason at all then?

    I could... I'm not a reason user at all and I don't fancy trying to get the hang of it. I think I've got enough on my plate with Sonar 4 and Project 5, never mind trying to get a simple groove going !

    Andy, Anyone else that is intressted. Here are the synths that I used on Liquid morning. If you use them, you could atleast mention me or something if you get famous with these sounds hehe (just kidding). Hope you guys find any use for them :)

     

    Thanks man, just looking at this now. Looks like subtractor has a useful way of modulating the ADSR to the filter which makes this sound so nice ! Lets see what I cna do with the synths I've got here.

    Will you believe me if I say that I made that one in Reason? You can have the zyp file if you want. I have already recreated the sound on my Virus C now :)

     

    Thanks, Liquid Morning is also one of my favourite trance tracks that I have made. Glad you liked it.

    I do believe you yeah ! Reason is a great program (although I'm a Project 5 /Sonar man myself). Send over the zyp file and I'll dig into it and see how the sound is made. I'll have a go at replicating it on some of the softsynths I've got here if you don't mind ?

     

    BTW, hows the Virus C ?
