    But ...... but ....... I thought everyone knew that 'in space nobody can hear you ping!' 😉
    Nice little tutorial; very useful.
    I like how open ended you made it, you just loaded the the non EQed tracks, one after another which is, as you said, made it very busy or cluttered which makes the person listening actually think about how to filter/EQ/mix and/or add effects to extend and finish the piece, which I believe is much more valuable than the more usual 'just do this' type tutorial. It helps one learn and use the process rather than produce something by rote.

      Thank you very much. Yes, it was just about the process. All that mixing stuff would have got in the way 😄

    This is an excellent tutorial, but I have one question. In the first instance of Vital you have a preset SEQ Stardrop. I can't find that in my collection of presets and I am just wondering is this a preset that you have created or, if not, where did you find it?

    • @IanWaugh
      @IanWaugh  2 місяці тому +1

      Hi - thank you for your kind comments. I don't recall exactly where this came from. There are many free Vital presets on the web and Chris at S1gns of Life gave some away but it was a while ago and I don't know which video 😢
      But it's about the process , not the sounds 😊

    I used to dabble in ambient stuff (nearly 20 years ago..got started with trackers, who remembers tracker software? 🤣) with the vst instruments from HG Fortune in Fruity Loops...anyone still use Fruity Loops?

    • @IanWaugh
      @IanWaugh  3 місяці тому +1

      I remember Trackers but didn't get on with them 😢
      Fruity Loops is now FL Sttudio and has a good following I believe 👍
      I discovered HGF a few years ago - amazing instruments but only 32-bit so I bought JBrisge to use them. Alas, upgraded my PC recently and have not reinstalled them. Happy days 😊
