This is the track I've been working on (amongst others) since September. At one point it consisted of 171 tracks but I was able to consolidate down to 150 in the end to assist with mixing.

Psytrance isn’t normally my thing, but I like this - lots of variation and movement that keeps it interesting, and in general I like the vibe. Mix is pretty good and you’ve retained space in the mix without cluttering it. Surprised that you managed to use 150 tracks.

Thanks man. There are loads of little sounds in there that all provide the general ambience, half of which you probably can't specifically identify. There are several times where I have 10 or so sounds "talking" to each other so the track count adds up quite fast.Forgotten wrote: ↑Sun Jan 12, 2020 4:45 pm Psytrance isntnnormally my thing, but I like this - lots of variation and movement that keeps it interesting, and in general I like the vibe.

The track count wasn't the issue with mixing; it was the automation which was a right b!tch.

Awesome, you got the reference. It was initially called Baking in the Purple Rain but felt that was too long and convoluted.

if you were to add a disclaimer that 'no filters were harmed during the making of this track' ,
you would be a liar ...
meticulous , as i'd expect , coming from you ...

sounds good to my ears
perhaps someone more at home in the genre wpuld have issues? i dunno. but from vague memories of eat static gigs when they were still part of the ozrics, id have been throwing shapes to this
:big box little box left fish right fish big box little box hands in the air: rpt ad infinitum.
and of course i got your cryptic prince reference.
huge fan

150 tracks? Really? How? Why? Where?
I can do it in 20 or less. Ha ha ha. Just kidding.
Cool track.

Some tracks are MIDI triggers for things like Stutter Edit/iWish, etc. while others are single sounds that are only used once throughout the track so it soon adds up. It would be easy to consolidate further by adding such sounds to a multitimbral sampler but even then I'd still need to mix them down sothejonsolo wrote: ↑Sun Jan 12, 2020 11:46 pm 150 tracks?

I just checked on Soundcloud and I don't think I have the required account (despite me having Premium ) Try this instead:

How in God's name do you create 150 tracks without frying your CPU? Sometimes I hit 30 before I have to start freezing things.
Anyway, sounds great.

Thanks. The chopped vocal reminds me of infected mushroom blues brothers a bit, but done better.
Cheers
