Cooksonia (the prelude)
Release
-->
Hello EM411 people. This is my first post on this site. I've been greatly enjoying listening to many of your songs over the past few months. Now it's time for me to start sharing. This song is one I've just finished. It's a pretty long composition made largely with a wine glass and a Tassman patch I found. Hopefully the link I provided works.
All comments, positive and negative, are welcome. | |

this is pretty sweet... nice mix...
only thign that drives me nuts is the LFO on the pan for the bell/lead
i like the length.. its correct.
tassman.. i think its one of the most misunderstood soft synths out there.

Actually, there's no LFO, but rather 2 tracks panned to different sides. Thanks for listening.

By the way jdg, can you elaborate on Tassman and how it's misunderstood? It's certainly a program I use in a very limited manner. Every once in a while a find a patch that someone made that I really like. I have yet to personally build anything worthwhile though.

ppl misunderstand its power.
no one really uses it... its amazing... the sound quality.
well, if its not an LFO.. make it sound like its not on an LFO then ;)

I never like to use LFOs for panning because all of the tailing resonance of a given note gets panned too. But alas, all the extra work was in vain, it sounds like an LFO anyway!
Tassman really does sound amaizing. I'm surprised to learn that people don't bother with it. I just figured....
I guess I live in the proverbial cave.

caves are good!
u find bats sometime.
maybe its not "LFO" perse... more like.."why is this panning left right so much?"
maybe make it pan up/down a bit (use EQ and verb a bit to do this)
or back and forth.. more then just left/right.

It's always nice to hear spacial placement consideration on an electronic music forum. Too often it's neglected, even though rock people seem obsessed with it. Perhaps next year I'll make like a rocker and play each bell track out of a speaker set up in a different room location, then record it again with a yet to be determined mic configuration. It would sound sweet to have three clearly defined spots for the bell things, each one being a different virtual distance from the listener. Great suggestions jdg.

i dont know what tassman is but this sounds really nice. esp considering there were wine glasses involved. are the pad sounds coming from a fingertip around the rim ? nice introduction !

The main instrument is a Tassman patch layed on top of a sampled wine glass instrument made with the Reason advanced sampler. The pad sounds were another Tassman instrument and wine glass ding with a very slow attack. I'm really looking forward to making some fingertip around the rim recordings in the future though.

whoa, this one took me by surprise (the panning also did although I agree that it'd be nice if it'd meander around spatially more - for the first minute or two it's great as is though i think), extremely nice sounds (clarity!) and I love the melodies as well. downloaded looking forward to the new version too!
