Although I did not take advantage of the new timing system.
During the making of this song, I have noticed that the most important Renoise 2 addition for me, is the ability to show only the automated parameters in the automation menu.
Yeah, I know I was a little shy on the groove. I also received comments that I was a little shy on the pads… some of my friends like pads… a lot.
I guess at least in part, this was intentional.
With this song, I wanted to let the leads shine, and to provide a flowing melody top to bottom. Not too many breaks, and natural flow from one pattern to another.
Although I like groovy hats and percussion line, I do not think I do them very well and I end up annoying myself with the result… So I decided to stick with percussion line that I feel more comfortable producing.
