Thats cool.
I find that my tracks sound less “sterile” to me since I started putting a little bit of noise, low down in the background.
Thats what its all about.
Try some crackle as well
I’ve actually been making my own crackle - LOL :hehe:
Getting a hat or anything really… distorting the utter F U C K out of it… adding chorus, reverb, overdrive or saturation, compressor & then EQ’n all the bass out of it.
I’ll have a little velocity sensitive pattern playing, over an odd amount of steps… 7 or 10 for instance & then loop it over the whole track.
If you do this a couple of times with a couple of different channels… each one playing something slightly different with diifferent EQ etc… and different steps - 11 or 13 - whatever… then it can sound pretty random.
If you have different channels its cool to have the character of the noises sounding slightly different. adding a lfo the cut off on some white noise 16th’s can sound interesting - especially if you have it velocity sensitive. The it loops oddly & sounds all random.
You can then bus it all to one. Its good down low & good up loud too! Mightnt be everyones cup of tea - but its a good way of making stuff that sounds unpredictible.
Another thing I’ll do for some background noise is to use an Amp Simulator… some old spring reverb’d dirty amp.
I’ll make a little noise loop as above & stick it through the amp sim.
I’m getting an old valve amp from the 70’s in the next couple of weeks. Its been serviced etc… so I’ll be interested to see if I can run stuff through it to add a bit of grit - straight through & back into the computer.
Havent tried Mic’ing something up yet & recording it. Suppose thats the next thing. Have an old crappy solidstate Marshall Amp from the 80’s. Small - 20W or 30W. I’ve been meaning to try that out, but havent got around to getting all the ****ing cables that I’m gonna need.
:hehe:
Just bought a mike from poundland - pretty excited what noise I can get out off it
Be pretty cool to get some feedback samples from that amp when you get it ICN - yeah I know on the ponce again :P:D:cool::hehe:
Cool!!
I got a cheap condenser one off Ebay ages ago. Just stick a Noise gate on it if it gets too buzzy Mate.
The Valve Amp - Not sure exactly what it is yet. I dont know if its a Head - or if its one that has Speakers in the Unit itself. I’m hoping just to get a bit of dirt & hiss from it tbh… I’ll definitely throw something together when I get it.
Kinda have an old reel to reel tape machine that I’m trying to get - from my Dad.
Its a Sony one from the 60’s or 70’s. Valve. Crazy thing. Its in a wooden case - which opens out in to 2 bits, which are the Speakers. Was some early hifi. Perfect condition. Just trying to wrangle it from him. Same thing, just want to see if I can hook a signal through it & see if it’ll make stuff sound different.
My Dad has the 70’s Amp as well… who suggested that over the Sony… but I’ll keep working on getting it. He’s finishing fixing it up at the moment.
Dont know how it would be for recording tape, cos its probably a little fkd up inside, just cos of its age…
Looks like this. Its got Valves in it. Real heavy thing. Great Quality… Some change from modern hifi’s!
Remember seeing cabaret voltaire in 1980 and they had frigging loads off those hooked up - how things change
Jeez - Its bad when they didnt even like listening to their own music! :hehe:
Saw a clip from the Tube with a UK DJ (One of the post Jimmy Saville crew from the 80s) Mixing - and he had a tape delay hooked up to the decks… which he was using live with the records he was mixing to make fkd up fx. Really cool.
Thought i would post this here after answering a topic on vocals.
Its a page full of long videos but if u have the time they might be of some use.

Watch out for the cool Tape Machine FX. Really ****ing cool.
His mixing techniques are really interesting.
<EMBED height=385 type=application/x-shockwave-flash width=480 src=1st UK DJ TO MIX LIVE ON TV - GREG WILSON ON THE TUBE - YouTube allowscriptaccess=“always” allowfullscreen=“true”>Was talking to my Dad today. The Amp I’m getting from him is one with speakers.
Its Valve Amp with a Spring Reverb in it.
SO thats cool. I’ll be able to bang the top of it / shake it & get the sound of the springs hitting off eachother. Will difinitely record that.
Its only a single output - as in not stereo… so thats a pity.
But the way I’ll end up destroying the stuff I put through it it wont matter.
Anyway… might be unusable regardless of what I do! :hehe:
Sounds cool - funny with technolgy supposedly getting better and theres us wanting to go backwards
