I started this weeks track by recording two Monomachine patterns into Audacity. I then took the recorded patterns into Paulstretch to make two 45 minute files, no additional processing was done in Paulstretch.

I then split each stretched file into 15 minute segments, for a total of 6, 15 minute segments, which were taken into Reason.

Two of the stretched segments were panned left and right and into a mixer insert effect, the LeSpace Rack Extension. From the second stretched file, another two segments were also panned left and right and sent into a RV7000 via an insert effect channel.

I then created two different rhythmic elements using a third segment from both files. The first stretched file was run into a Synchronus, with CV control coming from a Pulsar. The second stretched file was run into an Alligator filter, with CV control coming from three different Euclids.

All tracks were EQd individually with volume automation recorded live with a LaunchControl XL.

For the Master effects, I used an Audiomatic, a MClass EQ, a MClass Compressor, a MClass Stereo Imager and an Ozone Maximiser.

Like how it goes all airy halfway through.

Wow - great work! It's like the universe expanding on itself.

Only 7% in but really enjoying it.  Going to respond to emails and listen to this and report later....

30% done - I noticed a little rhythm fading in and out.  very cool.

75% - a big subbass tone could be really exciting here (just a thought!)

100% - very impressed!

Thanks for the feedback orangedrink, I'll look into the Sub Bass idea.
