MP-7 tracks

MP-7 tracks

2004-01-05 by dj 61

Here is the link to some tracks I have made with my MP-7. I would 
appreciate any feedback as I am still in the early stages of 
developing my sound and production. Don't be afraid to be negative, 
but please be specific.

http://www.soundclick.com/bands/6/dj61music.htm

All done completely through the MP-7 and then mildly compressed and 
gain adjusted for recording.

Just listened to first two tracks. Its sounds really good for early 
production stuff.A good basis to work on.
Thx
:Paul

p.s -(regarding your earlier mail on presets) Be sure to concentrate 
on backing up your patterns/songs and presets. Esp if you´re about to 
embark on moving your presets around .It would be a shame to loose 
this work. See also my previous mail concerning "Proteum".

hello,
   listened to your tracks, they sound very good for early prodction work and your sound is not boring, you have a lot going on but you should inject more energy into it like increasing your bps and adding more hi hats and cymbals also mess around with your quantize menu.  If you dont already have rom expansions, buy some it will definately help you develop your sound and also search in the kit presets for realistic and hard pounding kick and snare drums.  Overall i'll be looking out for you work in the future smells like hit spirit.

Re: MP-7 tracks

Thanks,
 I seem to have trouble attaining a more aggressive sound. I would 
like to blame it on my generaly passive state of being, but I think 
your right more work with the hats and drum tweaks. I will work on 
it. I n the meantime, if anyone has any drum tabs they would like to 
share...

Sorry I can't check out the songs you posted, but it's generally not too 
hard to make even a slow sounding tune more energetic with some simple 
drum programming.  Try these:

- Slide the main snares forward a bit (Scale/Shift Start Times -1 or -2)
- Add a tempo synced delay to the HH's.
- Use ghost snares to help add more movement.  Ghost snares are just 
quieter hits of your main snare, played around the rest of the percussion 
parts.

Re: MP-7 tracks

2004-01-08 by dj 61

Aha, the revalation I juat realized that with the second click of 
the preset chorus/delay it leads to what else... a delay with tempo 
sync. Somehow I have managed to work with the chorus and yet miss 
the delay. One small step for emu users one giant leap for Tom! 
While we are here with another click nontranspose may be selected on 
or off. What exactly is the effect of this as opposed to transpose?

It's not really a delay like that, it delays the start of the sound, it's 
not a delay "Effect".  You can press all of the Preset Edit keys multiple 
times to get to more screens.  ;)

Oh, so you were refering to using a seperate preset for the hats and 
using the effect sends for the delay, huh? Any recommended settings 
for this as a starting point?

Err...no sure where you got the Hats things from, not following you.  The 
Delay Setting in the Preset menu adjust how long after you press a key 
that the sound will start. 

Anyway, yeah Effect 2 is always a delay of some sort on my machine, and 
Send 1 is always a Reverb (Warm or Perfect usually)

I saw where my page had been linked to from here. Thanks for 
checking me out. Just a little disclaimer: Some of the tracks up now 
also make use of the Proteus 2500, a moog etherwave, an E-synth 
Dance E4 classic, and an aLex fx unit. There is a message board on 
the site please feel free to drop a note or leave a link to your 
page there. Also I love feedback, I take the good and the bad...Just 
try not to be vulgar if you post it to the board. Whoever you are, 
thanks again for checking it out. More were added in the past 
several hours.
