Well here's what I've been up to with the MD.
I've been working on a track. Since i usually come up with the best
part first, I put that at 7-10. I'm using it with an Indigo 2. I
have a usual 4/4 with about 53% swing (probably need to increase
this). Gotta have that swing to add to the funk. I got a OH at the
off beat but only at bars say 2 and 4 with a delay to hear it at 1 and
3. I got a B2? bass drum doing the kind of drum and bass wow bassline
(nice distortions in there). Actually the two distortion parameters
in the first menu can make it a deep soft or a deep hard sound. Using
the MD for mainly reverb and gating effect from the indigo but I am
thinking of taking some reverb out. I also have an option to use the
indigo inputs too.
I got another set on banks 3-6 like 7-10 and a breaking intro on 1-2.
I got a transition on 11 and I need to come up with some more.
However I like the bassline I think it is taking over the mix and may
take that out and use a sound from the indigo. I plan to add some
samples using kontakt. I also have to come up with some more sounds
on the indigo to replace others as i go in the track. As far as the
drums it's fine i may take out some inaudible rimshots and stuff.
More sequencing to do. Oh yea, already finished using the eq and
compressor in the master effects to get the sounds out. Once I get
this song finished I'll get it burned to cd and uploaded along with
some older crap I did.
