are you sure all the setting on the atlantis are correct? you havent got some random thing set wrong like the filter closed or the envelope inverted so its closing the vca when you send it a gate ? thats why i suggested following a patch example or putting up a photo

Can anyone tell me what the cable used to connect the WMD multimode envelope to the expander is called and where i might find one?

its not all about the most popular and cliched examples either, often they will inspire other people to use those elements in a more interesting and contemporary way. Cabaret Nocturne for example has some "synthwaveish" elements/influences for sure but it sounds really fresh and interesting

yeah those tiny vinyls are a bitch... i wouldnt go near them if i was mixing records for any sort of crowd at a party or what not, theres enough music on 12" that theres no need to dice with death

I'm still hung up on the "musically useful" bit of that statement.

i find it musically useful

thats a good question, I have two of these, one has set screws and the other does not, quite the mystery

we will even accept a slightly incorrect haiku at this point

have you tried looking up a patch for the atlantis and copying all the settings?

did you get either second hand? maybe someone tuned them weird?

i use channel 1+3 in program mode for certain drums, then use the other 4 channels in euclidean mode with a SSM to move the triggers around which is a nice combo. at the point now where a second one would be nice tho

the erica black vco has a rounded square wave sub osc thats pretty tasty

ive owned both, they are about as opposite as I can imagine! i want a second EC and grids lasted about 2 days before i moved it on, I just cant stand not having complete control over my drums.

i get rather pumped making this stuff despite its more laid back qualities!

I think the first half of that track 145 is great! just my (uneducated) opinion, i tend to steer away from the more industrial sounding material though, the chronologically earlier stuff has a bit of a sweeter tone to me? i think you should focus on whatever gives you the most joy musically though, ...

i think i like the first track the best!

I like the groove a lot! Funky as hell. :sb: The melody that follow the bass line that emerge halfway in is great, love that. If I can request anything it would be another little sequenced melody perhaps. Something simple :) I used the same patch to create another similar track, the E340 cloud gene...

imo the charm of the 808 is in the decay, not the attack... you dont need to layer in a daw, just trigger something else short and clicky at the same time and mix them together... if you make the 808 huge then gate it short with an envelope that might give you a bit more punch

8 mono outs into my interface, need to get one of those behringer thingys so i can do 16 as 8 is not enough!

third one was cool, it reminds me of a computer game theme song from my childhood that i cant place!

cool, sounds somewhere between old electro and a computer game

Thanks! I always struggle to put in a third melodic component... im thinking of grabbing a more unusual voice module like an odessa to try and accomplish this without clashing too much...

not really my kind of music so i might be off base here, but ansome springs to mind? he uses a lot of euro gear too...

so it was 10pm and i decided to make a tune, no time to get high so i had to go it completely sober. turns out this was not such a bad idea perhaps... tune finished and off to bed before 11pm
