New track up on mp3.com, called "Little House on the 12"
Initial pattern was programmed using Nanoloop, then sampled into the SP-12
and looped.
Drum and percussion sounds are from the SP-12. The kick is filtered through
the MOTM-440 LPF.
"More cowbell!!"
Bassline is from the FR777.
Higher-pitched lead line is MOTM; 300 oscillator through two 420 filters,
one in high pass, other in low pass mode; each are modulated by a single
LFO, split via mult, one lagged slightly using 820 lag processor (I've been
doing that a lot lately - its a subtle effect but makes the sound a little
more interesting - it sounds much more animated when the lag is increased as
you might guess). It's sequenced using the wonderful Frostwave Fat
Controller.
This began a couple of years ago as a live track I arranged for a house
party at which I performed. I recreated some of the patterns by ear, using
the original drum machine (the same SP-12) and then removed a lot of the
bits to make the arrangement breathe more (the toms originally followed the
lead line slavishly). I developed an entirely new bassline for it (real
tough, huh? all four beats? :)) The lead line was originally sequenced on a
SH-101, driven by a MPC2000 via a Kenton ProSolo. I whipped up an identical
sequence using the Fat Controller in, oh, 20 seconds or so ;) Viva
simplicity!
Does anyone else think the SP-12 is just the bee's knees? I just wish I
could find my Commodore disk drive cable so I could save this stuff once in
awhile...
David.
