Thanks, Tom... we're just trying as best we can to keep up with you..

skills at work here.

Nice of you to say, Kenny...

P.S. Floyd, I noticed in the song description that you are using loops from Drums on Demand. If you don't mind my asking, are you using BIAB to add these loops to the song, or do you use your DAW and add them after the fact?

(I am so out of the loop when it comes to this stuff, pardon the pun :P)


We appreciate that, Dave. We were, in fact, trying for as "modern" a sound as we could find.... The "loops" are mixed in the DAW - Studio One Professional is what I use - it has an option to stretch any added audio to the selected tempo, so everything fits/works. It's really more "sections" than what one would traditionally call "loops". I use BIAB loops occasionally - like for my Hand Claps - things that really loop repetitively. This is more selecting sections and piecing them together until you have built a performance (like a drum track).
