Hey hey, this week I am getting ready for a family road trip, and wanted to brush up on my Deluge skills, so that I can get some jams pulled together while away from my studio proper. So this track was fully produced on the Deluge. I used a few presets from the Boards of Deluge collections (2 and 5 I think)... but also did a fair bit of sound design on most of the elements, and I patched the bass from scratch. All the playing/sequencing, effects, mixing, and arrangement was done in the Deluge exclusively (didn't even use a midi controller). I mastered the track in Logic, but really there's not much going on there, some VERY light compression, a multi-band exciter to get some subtle saturation (as saturation in the Deluge is NOT subtle), and a maximizer... so really very light touch in Logic.
All in all I'm pretty pleased with the result... we'll see how long that holds, but for now I'm not mad at it. I will say that I'm more and more in love with the new Community Firmware... I'm using the 1.1 (Beethoven) Beta version and I'm so happy they poached the Mutable Instruments reverb algorithm. Totally game changing.
