Plugin Tip : Xils-Lab : Chorx

Album update
It’s been a while since I gave you all some updates on the new album, it’s nearly done! Today I finished the boring exporting process. You see, I write the album in Ableton Live, it’s easy and fast to work with synths and record audio, I really like it for that. But for mixing I tend to turn back to the traditional style of music program.  I was thinking about ProTools to mix...

Little Drummer Boy
Just came home from the studio, really had a blast today with my dad’s old electronic drum kit ( Roland TD-7 ) and Native Instruments 70’s Drummer. Hooked it up via midi and banged a track or two for my coming album, really fun to do, and it sounds amazing! One of the new tracks I’m working on features some heavy driving tom tom rhythms and doing the whole take live really...

Tabletop, a modular electronic studio on your iPad
I just came across this great new app for the iPad, it’s called Tabletop and it’s from the people at Retronyms, they are the same guys that brought ReBirth to the iPad.  Basically it’s a modular setup, you hook up modules to a mixer and some effects and get a groove going, really easy and it makes good use of the touch interface. It includes some very nice modules, a drum...
