That's a capital i.

I doubled the drum pattern lengths, was surprisingly easy, so now everything has a lot more variety. I also put drums and melodies in separate mixing channels so it's easier to balance the two. This is the balance I prefer.

I think I'll add another instrument next week, but I'm not sure which, so tell me which of these would you like added most based on name alone:
- Freeboy
- Kicker
- LB302
- Monstro
- OpulenZ
- Organic
- Vibed
- Watsyn

puh,... this is a bit hard to here tbh.
there are great tracks in there but it doesnt seem to harmonise together that well.
keep it up, my friend!

Yea, I'll have to work on that, I'm trying to figure out the best approach.

Don't forget to pick something from the list though.

Loving the sound of LB302 and Vibed. Another adventure into procedural we go!

Freeboy!

Based solely on name, I vote Freeboy.

I like the percussion.  Also some nice transitions.  Good work on the track.

Agreed. Too much variety makes it clustered. Not sure if that's what you were going for.

I vote Watsyn.

Thats what i meant.

I Vote for Watsyn aswell!

Viber vibes with me

Watsyn, I presume.

I'm not familiar with those instruments but I want to pick LB302 because the name makes it a total mystery!

Kicker! Kickin time boys!

They go and go. Having some fun here. Go with Monstro ... it sounds BIG and SCARY

I'm personally not a huge fan of LB302, but we'll see in the tally.

Another one for Freeboy.

Interesting notion, there aren't any real transitions. It just goes to the other section.

That makes sense. It's equally important to limit the range of options as it is to have them. I think I can tighten it up a bit through the bass.

I'll add one to Watsyn.

That's the point, only those vested in LMMS know what they are.

Someone really likes them drums. Noted.

It's quite the beast, that's for sure.

Super Nintendo vibes here!

Rockin it like 38 Special! Like that double drumming. Mix does sound wider. Best yet IMO!

The movement of the panning is done so well. The balancing of instruments through panning and when they are active seems to help each one be heard.

Chiptune'll do that.

Thanks, I only made the drum pattern be two bars though, everything else kinda stayed the same.

That was what I was going for alright, though there's no magic in it, one instrument is 60% left, one 60% right, and one center. This also goes for the drums.
