yes.

i assumed everyone would be using battery. oh well.

top tip: tune up a top kick & layer it at 3-6k.

where does it show this in battery?

doing this with hardware means the delay gets slightly more dirty each time it does the loop and passes through everything. If you can get a loop going in your software you might want to put a saturating plug on the channel. That or there are some plugs with a nice feedback sound here http://www.int...

going against the hole less is more eq philosophy etc, i find 'quadrafuzz' in cubase great for getting things to sit right / sound how i want them to. Its a multiband distortion plug but can sound subtle when needed

If you're on a vintage gear tip then this may be of some interest:

He also uses 2" tape and i think he has 1/4" multitrack as well

I went from Cubase LE4 to 5 because it was just frustrating to use (though im guessing essential is a bit better). If i'd known about reaper i think i would have gone tha...

He did make some very nice tunes. Didn't people just hate on him for sounding too much like burial?

Wow that's a lot of work! But an interesting alternative to rack modules.

Hi guys I'm trying to use a laptop as a sound module (to make use of 4 extra analog outs that my laptop soundcard gives me) I've set up 2 midi channels (1 and 2) on my PC, routed them from PC midi out to laptop midi in and into cubase midi channels 1 and 2.

We ran into lots of problems leading up to this night which i don't really want to get into on here but still was very surprised by the turn out (or lack of). It did sound good though
