Charles, thanks for sharing. Very cool stuff. Sounds like you have used the 
EVOC20 a bit. I really like Softer excerpt - nice beats and beeps. Did you use 
Logic's virtual synths, or outboard gear or other AU's?

Thanks for listening and responding. I really appreciate it.
EVOC is one of my preferred synths.
I don't own any out board synths anymore.
When writing I use LP7 virtual synths, Reaktor, Terra, Cube and  
Crystal. Although much of the material is only LP7 synths.

Are you going to put out a CD? 

IDM is refreshing to listen to - and there is a lot of open space for 
creativity there.

Yes, first CD of the new material will be out in November.
I will of course post an announcement here LOL!
Thanks

does anyone know if you can obtain logic pro VST's, namely ultrabeat,  
for use in logic express? I would really like to have a virtual drum  
machine to use in logic express, how do I get ultrabeat?
thank you for the help..

the only way to get Ultrabeat is probably to get Logic Pro or Logic Pro academic. However, 
there are a number of similar plug ins you can buy. 
- Linplug's RMIV plays samples and generates tones, and I got it on a group buy for under 
$60 awhile back. 
-I mainly use Battery by NI - it doesn't generate its own tones, but you can add multiple 
samples to each of 72 cells, and shape the sound of each cell with a lot of processing 
capabilties. Its currently being sold very cheaply via NI's 10 year anniversary sale that will end 
soon.
- ther are a bunch of other ones which are more sample based but often have loops - RMX 
Stylus? Drumcore, Drumline, ... i forgot their names.

But all of them work with Audio Units. And I assume Logic Express would allow you to use 
those, since Garage Band allows for AU plugs.

Thanks for the recommendations! I too needed a good
drum sampler and read your reply... I went right to
the NI site & listened to Battery... Then I bought it!
Thanks again!

Guys -- rather than just a sample, what about something that has  
algorithmic support to intelligently add fills and not sound so  
"loopy"?  Something like Jamstix or GrooveAgent?

Any recommendations?

I use Stylus RMX, it does the job pretty well! You can more or less  
decide how much "life" you want to add to your pattern. Recommended :)

	I'm pretty fond of fxpansions GURU, which does beat slicing, 
has plenty of effects,etc. It doesn't algorithmically add fills, but 
it will let you analyse beats and swap the instrumentation around.
