This is brilliant, but my computer is at Home and all I have is an iPad.
I'll se if I can do something using the iPad but I think it's a little TOO limited.

I think you got the knob on the mixer the wrong way round, it's ment to go all the way clockwise to make it mono. You got it on like super stereo. Though I can't totally tell in that picture, as it's a little bit small, and grainy.

Bump.
would like to hear the results of this challenge.

Looks fun, will probably set something up or grab the template Wub made.

They're applied at the end of the chain before the sound leaves the channel.

Don't remember what it looks like in 5, but there's a "stereo separation" knob on the mixer channel, one way is full stereo the other is mono.

Tune in my sig was done in this manner. Stereo tracks for the Machinedrum, Monomachine, Octatrack, and Analog4 with a RE501 on the aux send. Recorded down to a stereo track. Going with the minimal theme, just 1 pattern per machine.

Here's another jam, just two stereo pairs and one mono channel on this one. Analog4 and Bug Brand Modular stereo, Monomachine bass in mono.

This is a great thread OP.

I was actually just thinking of a similar drill the other day. I'm an acquaintance with a top quality mixing engineer and he was telling me a story about how in some studies back in the day they did their mixing with TWO tapes!

I was thinking I could duplicate this by recording into only two "tapes" -two dedicated audio channels. You only get only one MIDI channel for instruments. You will have to save your track on one "tape", then keep juggling it to the spare tape as you add the MIDI instrument to the mix.

You could probably bang out a completely mixed, finished track in four hours doing this.

I kinda like the idea of only two tracks like that because you HAVE to commit your sound and bounce it down to add anything new. I feel like that would really help with sound selection because it has to be on point before you commit.
