Hi! My name's Zack (IRL, my online name is Tetragon) and I have decided that VSTs are for the birds and tracking is the way to go. Especially since Milky is all my iMac can run.
I have much love for all the Straylight crew (siren/sandman, necros, etc...) they are my favorite tracker composers.
I've also decided that ripping is no fun, so outside of breaks/vocals/hits I'm going to use entirely my own samples (I have a MicroKorg, BOSS DR-550mkII, and a Yamaha PSR-290, looking towards a Roland MC-303 and some sort of Korg 01 rack (because necros seems to have used one, and a lot of mods I like mention Korg 03r/w).
I'm practicing now with the samples of others (I can't make my own samples that sound great until I get my EQ and FX boxes, they're only $40 but they are exactly what I need) so once i get the hang of things, I'll upload my stuff, but I want to make sure my stuff is worthy of your time first!
Anywhoo, I tend to rattle on like this too much, so I may not post a lot, but I will be lurking and listening! :3
