On the subject of plugins, I was just listening to a few of your (very
nice) tracked pieces on your website. In a couple of them it sounds
like you have a filter frequency automation (dn505 there is a 303-like
resonance tweak I think, and dumbstuff has a rising filter at the
beginning on the first bassline). I was not aware this sort of thing
was possible with Cheesetracker. Would you mind saying how it was
done? The only ways I could think of was by routing through jack rack
or a modular synth patch, but then I think you would have to record
the filtered track on its own as cheesetracker only has stereo
outputs, or alternatively by tweaking the plugins live?
All the best,
James

Well, I did what I never do: put distortion after reverb. It sounds
horrible, because the crackling goes everywhere in the spread and
sounds like a bad recording. But, with more reverb afterwards to make
it sound intentional, it sounded quite nice for a distorted lead.

I am sure midi is fine also. Or it can be recorded and learned by ear.
That may be a little more effort though.
I was impressed by artifical feedback that you got when simulating the
guitar sound. On Sat, Jul 09, 2005 at 12:42:37PM +0100,

You can also write out the music in lilypond to give to one of us. I am sure you can
find many people who would want to collaborate on a project. There are
many fine musicians here.
You mean all those little circles with tails?
Whichever route I take, looks like I'll have to learn *something*!
