Building A Soundscape With The Korg iM1 And Cubasis

[@thestonedrummer6147]

Very reminiscent of one Mr. Wright I feel, beautiful sounds one and all, congratulations on a job well done.

That's brilliant, you made good progress in the 20 or so minutes. Liking the sound of this new experimental album.

[@TheSoundTestRoom]

Thanks Joe, it's always good to improvise, you never know what may happen...

[@djdoolittle1315]

Still have and love my old M1. Cheers man, nice one. 🎼😝

[@kendiscoboy]

You've inspired back to the Ipad for music making, and like the previous comment The M1 is something I had awhile but semi dismissed too easily as well.....keep the top reviews coming Doug, they are always a must watch for me.

Welcome back to the iOS world Doug!

[@TheSoundTestRoom]

Cheers, I really enjoyed doing this

The iM1 sounds immense in this, I had dismissed it as an 80s digit synth before.

Excellent performance. What’s the subtle difference between GarageBand iOS, G Band for Mac, Q Bases and Logic? I’m currently a GarageBand iOS user and is an excellent app I’ve used for over 6 years.

Hi Doug, how did you get multiple instances of iM1 in Cubasis?

[@periurban]

I listened to your stuff on bandcamp. I love your sounds! I noticed here that you normalised the first track. What's your view on that? Some say you shouldn't normalise unless absolutely necessary because of audio quality degradation.

[@TheSoundTestRoom]

Cheers Sean and many thanks for having a listen to my BandCamp stuff. And onto normalising a wave....I probably didn't need to normalise it, I looked the wave and automatically thought it was too low so went straight to normalise instead of listening properly, I had to drop it backdown in the mix after that and didn't need to do the rest of the tracks. I would say don't do it unless it's really necessary, if it's too low then compression is a better and safer bet, the biggest problem when normalising is that your leaving yourself no real room for any other kind of processing.

That was really really cool. I enjoyed every minute of it. Doug, what was that object in your left hand that looks like a filter tip cigar or something? Thanks for doing this.

[@TheSoundTestRoom]

Thanks Rob, I have up smoking 6 months ago, now I vape tasty fruit flavours instead, so that is one of my Vape pens

[@senhorlampada]

+thesoundtestroom Congrats on that! :) I have been helping friends vape instead of smoking lately. Some of them even gave up vaping one day :D Have you noticed health improvements after giving up the smoke?
