Tone deaf
Yeah that's really solid. It's all about that final drop at 2:45.
But the tools that make the track and bring in the movement are Tantra and Turnado.
I recorded a big chunk of drums as a unified channel just running through those two effects for 20 minutes or so, twiddling knobs and creating different patterns. Then went back and chopped out the most interesting sections for arrangement as flat loops. The twitchy element on top is actually just a vocoder effect being driven by the drums.
Very quick, very fun. The downside is the destructive nature, leaving me with just a single layer of drums and little ability to fine tune retrospectively. But I find this forces me to move on, adopt or discard something and removes the temptation to spend too long messing about - because you literally can't. Tinkering is something that has plagued me and stopped me finishing tracks in the past.
Even the synths end up flattened because Omnisphere's performance tool cannot be automated, so again... tweak it live over the top of the drums... the entire track ends up as flattened wav files with almost no midi left.
Reaktor & XO power the drums, with Omnisphere for synth duty.What tools are you using?
