Magnetic Penetration

Despite a lot going on, I did manage to carve out a few minutes during the week to work up some drum parts and keyboard parts (inspired by Ableton releasing some new instrument sample sets), giving me a bit of time on the weekend for guitar and bass. I'd not expected to do this kind of smoooov jazz-funk vibe, but here we are.
Drums: Ableton's 64-pad rock set through Drum Buss, with a touch of M4L Humanizer. Still chasing a syncopation thing, but this one felt a bit better than last week's. Keys: Ableton's new Basic Suitcase electric piano, through Chorus on the Slow Pan preset (with tweaking). Not wanting to leave well enough alone, I also auto-panned this. Also after going through a number of other new Ableton keys, I settled on the good old MkI2 Crunch. Guitar: several passes of Res-O-Glas direct into the board, going through Auto-Filter high-pass and low-pass with drive, brought down a touch with Utility. Bass: good old Epi P-J on the P pickup through EQ-8 for bass rolloff and Cabinet for air.
Sends: two convolution reverbs (small studio rooms) with Auto-Filter in front to cut off lows, and two different Echo channels (Hallow Trip and Dub Syndicate). Full-chain master on everything.
Title from one of the properties of Niobium: it apparently has the greatest magnetic penetration depth of any element.
