randomness

discover randomness... it's slight, but it's there... I tried not to be so obvious... but Reaper is very nice with it's parameter modulation... hope you enjoy.

crazy intense! what's uh, reaper's parameter modulation??

intense and creepy - but also groovy :3

thanks man, appreciate it. and param modulation is very cool... you basically tweak whatever knob you'd like to have modulated in your vst. you then assign an in-built LFO to that knob you've just tweaked and let it modulate. lfo can be sine, square, random... or you can even assign side-chained audio, for audio based modulation. pretty cool feature as I think... I've modulated tons of knobs this with with a random LFO. it's gentle but I think quite nice. You can go crazy though ... wink

was there a midi controller involved or was this a programmed envelope? maybe i need a link to study.

Disturbing industrial voices... Nice! It has a vaguely Cabaret Voltaire feel, even I think Throbbling Gristle would approve smile

LMMS can do that too, I remember making a song once with that.

Excellent!
Reason does this too, CV Modulations!

naah, no midi controller at all. only pure random modulation. have a look on youtube, you'll find enough tuts on that topic.
