Loving the DT. I’m finding it a really refreshing break from working in the box, and find myself very focused on the music making - wonderful!
Just wondering how other people best structure their projects/workflow for optimum ease and efficiency - towards actually finishing songs?
I’m working just in Audio. I’ve been making my main rhythm track on Pattern 1, resampling that, and then placing that loop on Track 1 of Pattern 2, and then been using the remaining 7 Audio tracks for my instrumentation (basslines, melodies, chords, pads, FX).
This creates a basic loop which is the foundation of my track, I then duplicate that pattern, and create variations of the instrumentation. I then plan to track into my DAW via Overbridge - the downside of this is that my 8 tracks of percussion are in a different pattern than my 8 tracks of instrumentation.
My plan is to simply record multiple passes of recording into the DAW, and then rearrange in the DAW.
Keen to hear other approaches from people more experience than me. Would be deeply greatful to learn a smooth an easy workflow that keeps things organised for intuitive jamming and recording into the DAW. Many thanks in advance!
