    im the other way around. all possible directions to go with this is confusing. trying to come up with a concept for the track so i can limit myself...

    its so easy to loose perspective on things once youve gone deep into sampling, fx, etc. you start working a day on the attack of the hihat in a fill thats only used once in the song etc.... you get the idea... haha

    This. I got a Maschine Mikro about 6 months ago, and one of the things I like the most is that I can work exclusively on the hardware. Once I start using the mouse and keyboard all my productivity goes out the window. I can't focus and end up getting lost in sound design and mixing before I'm even writing a song.

    I just figured out a new workflow where I'm using Live to host Maschine, with multiple outs from Maschine to Live, and MIDI being recorded within Live as opposed to using Maschine's 'scene' based sequencing (which is doo doooo). So far I'm really liking it because I feel like I can still bang out beats on the pads, but I have so much ability to edit and sequence more effectively afterwards with the raw midi in Live.

    This beat will be the first thing I really finish with the new setup. I plan on trying some new things. It should be fun.

    what up chief, thats too bad homie, then again u said the same thing last time and ended up winning the damn thing haha, anyway, time has been tight at my end too this month, taking a couple hours out this weekend to put it down, actually as we speak missing out on a big ass flea (r??dovre centret) but u cant do everything at once, would have enjoyed hearing your take on scorpio though, hope all is well with the little one, peace!

    I'm respectfully bowing out of this one. I started something but am not going to have time to finish it.

    I had a lot of fun last time and was hoping to find time to do something this time around but work has been keeping me too busy so I'm going to have to fold as well. I'm looking forward to hearing what cats come up with.

    Don't say die foos, I am prolly gonna have to extend the deadline because of low amt of submissions so far!

  • I'll be submitting one by the deadline! Was away in Houston last week but I've got some time between now and Wednesday and plan on getting it in - fully completed or not!!

    I know this one has no holy grail significance... but I'd hate to see this fizzle out! Don't let it die! Beat it off!!!!
