Thank you! Glad you liked it. 
We were recording for a track on the day that has a really hectic rhythm section, which is what Terry had in his headphones. That track is while off. For this little spin of piece I muted the whole track, kept the vocals and composed a new string section underneath. The full improved vocal taked were too good to waste on cutting room floor. Cheers!
Nice! My secret is stacking together 4 or 5 or 10 cheap and nasty Logic X pitch correction plugins. Nothing fancy. I simply like the sound.

For something a bit different I’ve paired up my beginner piano practice with my current interest in building drum patches in Rack. This was a fun one!

Kicking off 2025 with some crazy circus beats! Using a set of precomposed MIDI files, notes in the original composition are being randomly selected. Pretty much a host of CHANCES modules. I’ve added a small drum patch (left) and done a bunch post patch editing, including letting the original orchestral composition come through in parts. Hope you like it. Here’s to creative 2025 for all! Cheers

First I composed a 6 voiced string orchestra piece, I used the the MIDI file of the bass line to create a synth voice with ol’-faithful squinky basic oscillator, the gate being triggered by the kik drum sequence. I used the the full string MIDI file to create an arpeggiator for the harmonic progression. I added a drum section thats driven by the sequel 16 sequencer. Attempting to create a dramatic action music vibe.

Currently going through a composer-y phase rather than experimental patching. I’m still turning to Rack for sound design and workflow options. Here is a nice easy tonal piece for string orchestra, saws, and FMP OP arp. Hope everyones year is going well. Looking forward to checking out everyones recent work! Cheers

Probably more appropriate for jam-uary, I built a layered polyphonic playable patch, something I don’t do much. The main sound is wobbly lofi keys thing, underneath is a pad with a random LFO controlling trem speed, heavily filter delay layer (reminds me a bit of 2814 DOAND, albeit without the genius) and last attachment was an arpeggiator. As per my current workflow (I think its here to stay for a bit) I recorded each channel separately and did a bit of editing for shape. Bass and horn added in post.

Having fun jamming and creating ideas a for a new piece. I used the MIDI file of the string section you can hear in video to create a new synth arpeggiator. I have mapped a host of freak filters and FX (delay and verb) to the Novation MIDI controller as to mess around and hopefully find some useful bits and pieces.

The piece was initially composed in Logic X for strings, celeste, harp and timpani. I imported the MIDI into Rack for further Rack orchestration. The strings are complimented by a host of saw patches (bottom left section of vid). The celeste and harp are doubled and sometimes taken over by the top right patch (an FM OP and squinky basic spaghetti mess). An extra layer (the most exciting one) is a fast arpeggiator of all the string lines in a block. I mapped a bunch of freak filters to a controller to play around with different layers of distortion and FX. (my previous vid is a closer look at this patch). I had heaps of fun trying to balance all the elements and sculpt an interesting piece out of all the material. In the video, the top sections go BnW when not sounding, the rest of the stuff in the vid that is not the patches is just fun video art experimentation.
