My secret technique for making crazy pads in ableton live or reaktor is to take a simple pad (like simple saw with long attack), then route this through beatmashing effects (like beatrepeats in ableton, or glitch samplemashers in reaktor), route the output of these through delays and reverbs and bitcrushers and ring modulators, and then route everything through eq to get a grip on the sound. Feedback into multiple return channels with reverb and distortion is cool too. I went crazy on the idea in my reaktor ensembles spritzle and beatfilter, which are quite cpu-hungry beasts. Running pad sounds through them is awesome though.

my secret for making any sound a pad, or (ghetto time stretch)
so, u have a gong sound.
fade away the attack, copy it, reverse the copy, crossfade with original, repeat steps..
thats pretty much every song i've ever made.

my new secret technique is to double instruments, and then play with the doublings. so, a flute might be playing a major scale cdefgabc, and then a guitar plays cegb, coinciding with the same notes on the flute (flute plays 16ths, guitar plays eigths)
or doubling a harp sound with a guitar. love that.

I make a sample that I like, loop it, then record the output of my wave editor software and go crazy on selecting regions, changing length of the regions (up to sample length) with the mouse on the fly, making crazy looppoints, trying to create a sort of ebb and flow. if the resulting (4 or 5 minute long) file sucks, I delete it. If its good then I start to make individual samples from it. sometimes the motive for complete tracks happens from "jamming" with loop points in DSP Quattro.. mmh. results are fed into my MS20 filterbox and appropriately mangled of course.

too much reverb --> too much lowpass --> compress and sent to jdg

My new favorite technique (which is a really old school tracker trick) is to switch the sample of a lead rapidly in Modplug. My tracking buddies taught me this. This is part of how chips and mods like zakazakazakazak and virt's fx / fx 2 acheive their sound.

top secret technique: run kontakt or other software that has a browser with preview, browse to a big drum sample library, enable auto-preview (plays the sample when it's selected), press record, select the first one, press and hold the down arrow on keyboard, when the cursor reaches the last one press and hold the up arrow, press stop. run through fx. venetian snares.
