2manygentlemen Posted September 7, 2012 Posted September 7, 2012 Current Version: It's right here! So far, it's mostly an intro-type thing with just bass and some pads/leads. Percussion'll come later. Right now, I just want to know whether this seems like a good direction. I'm sort of inspired by 80s Rush here, minus the rock, what with the odd-time stuff going on, as well as a couple of minor shout-outs to Freewill and Distant Early Warning. When I do add percussion, I think I'll be going at that sort of "world music" feel from the same period with congas, shakers, ect. Here's what I've got so far. Quote
2manygentlemen Posted September 7, 2012 Author Posted September 7, 2012 I dunno what I did in Synth1 to the bass, but its patch Is out of tune. That's easily the first thing I'm fixing tomorrow. Quote
Gario ⚖️ Posted September 7, 2012 Posted September 7, 2012 Yeah... Erm, fix that patch. I'll get back t this when you do. Quote

I'd recommend checking out samples from the Roland TR-808, TR-909, and TR-626 sometime. There are some really nice congas and shakers from that. Quote
2manygentlemen Posted September 8, 2012 Author Posted September 8, 2012 Thanks for the suggestion. I will definitely look into using those. Anyhoo, I've replaced the bass with a patch that's actually in tune. And tried to fatten things up. The update's here. Quote
2manygentlemen Posted September 8, 2012 Author Posted September 8, 2012 Minor improvements, instrument-wise. Quote
2manygentlemen Posted September 16, 2012 Author Posted September 16, 2012 Actually got around to adding percussion. Mostly 808/909-type stuff. The drums right now are fillers for the moment. Quote
