Past
From age 15 to 20 I played drums in two bands. We played a few gigs and thus rehearsed to be able to reproduce our pieces the way we had decided them to be.
Present
The Eureka Moment
The Approach
Exceptions (not being dogmatic….)
While this »Start from Scratch Approach« boots creative experimenting and also is a great way to get to know my devices better, I have (so far) 4 Templates that let me save a lot of time and can be easily tweaked to my current needs:
- A Template for Bitwig
- 16 Tracks set to audio recording with respective sound source set
- An Equalizer Plugin for each Track
- A Template for Octatrack
- All Audio Tracks set to Flex machine
- MIDI channels and sync settings
- Frequent MIDI CCs
- Individual Track length checked
- A Template Patch for the GR-1 Granular Synth
- An Effects Stack for the Kdenlive Video Editor
Life is good!
