Ambient/Post-Rock/Textural bass playing thread

Cuckoo doing some live stuff with the tracker. It’s a lengthy track and not something I particularly dig, but it’s not bad. I wish I knew what he was doing with some of the button presses. It ends at 7:45 and he goes into some light discussion about the wave tables he used.



My biggest beef with these videos is the tracker key clacking it’s the gimmick. I get it. But it’s also distracting

All these videos are just making me more confused as to how exactly this thing works. There seems to be many routes from point a to b....??
Pick one up and tell us about it.

;)
 
Maybe I need to download a Renoise demo and test it out. Maybe I just want a software tracker. The DAW version is only $75. And there's a Redux thing for $65, which is more of a synth with tracking sequencing.

From what I gather, Renoise is a lot more complex than the Polyend. Like, a lot more
 
btw, since i’m feeling wag-ish, anyone else think that cuckoo’s patreon dough goes to weed?

Or he’s just “that weird kid” in school who kept going weird, but made it work. He might be straight edged vegan for all I know. Maybe he’s euro-sober.
I can’t tell with the kids these days.

Wow.....how many terabytes of vst you got in there?

It’s a 250 gig drive with a bunch of non music production stuff along with a bunch of music production stuff. I need to do some cleanup. The download is 35 gig for the DAW. I need to download it to an external drive then transfer it to my dedicated production laptop, which has plenty of space. I avoid connecting the production laptop to the web. If I’m ever out at a gig with it, I don’t want traces of personal info if it get swiped.

The good news is that I might have an excuse to get a new machine in the next year or two. I’m looking at the new Mac Mini to be the centerpiece. Those things are fast, small, and have plenty of hardware connection ports.
