First track for Weekly Beats!

This one is nanoloop 2.5 with software effects, and some live manipulation in Ableton Live.

Pumping works better with side chaining and ducking, here its all over compressed, so the beat looses its impact. If the volume is maxed to begin with, the beat can't hit, good track tho.

Thanks for the tip! as you can tell I'm still figuring out the DAW stuff

agree with CK its a shame because this is an excellent song - work out the compression to get a nice ppunch and youll be set man.

I think it's more a case of turning other things down a bit too.  Heeeyyyy.... I like the ending... what you using to do the cool stretch effect at the end?!!

fuckin awesome!!!

Thanks guy I'll try tweaking the mixing and everything some more and see how that works,

@cTrix thanks it's a couple of "simple delay"s layered in ableton, and just messing with the delay time and feedback and such.

Cool track, man smile I'm looking forward to hearing what you do in future weeks

This is one of the most unique chip-tracks I've heard.  A bit minimalist, but really awesome!
