Had a disk laying around for years and never really thought about it until recently. But holy shit, how awesome?
well it's a vst version of a digital synth from the 90s with lots of PCM waveforms, so if you're into that sort of 90s soundtracky sound it's pretty awesome.

if that's not your bag you might still be able to get use out of it, it does have quite a few sounds that are probably still useful. it makes nice pads and has a lot of percussion sounds. overall it has a pretty nice, cold, glassy sound to it, which I quite enjoy. wavestation choirs are all over those old arpanet records, for example.

Ok just bounced out my first version of a tune I started working on Thursday, leave it overnight then listen back tomorrow on the bedroom stereo and my headphones and see if it stands up.

Now, onto some Think break chopping, whale noises and ambient pads...

Finishing up a quick track I made yesterday, playing around with a lot of new ideas. Feels good to make something completely different to what I've been making the past few months.

Trying to finish a tune for a remix competition. I accidentally routed a pad through a noise gate I was using on my drums and it sounded awesome so I want to find a way to keep the chopyness without the drums playing. Then I have to incorporate the vocals into it somehow, which sucks because I really don't like them

When you've finished the paper, import the document file into Audacity and get some glitches :)

Use the "Import Raw" menu function and Audacity will take any file and turn it into a soundfile.
