Thanks for breaking this down further!
Do like the concept a lot, and really like OT when I free it up to be a drum machine: just trying to work how to reference the material I’m looking to accompany with this approach…if that makes sense.
Maybe I just capture a few bars and let a resampled 4 bars of a piece I want to design drum patterns for occupy a track so that I have a frame of reference…I know I could decouple the process and just freely make lots of drum loops…maybe better!
Been messing with the Cult of SP1200 and Caught On Tape projects: love the way these are setup - sounds, fx and scenes.
Do you find yourself approaching patterns in a methodical way or more like just making lots you like?
