If there's one thing I didn't find in the demo pack, it's a nice deep bass, so I compensated by EQing all the tracks, as well as the master chain to have more low end. So I suppose it's a Jennifer Lopez mix, so to speak.

See I would of wasted lots of time trying to transform one of the existing patches into a sub bass sound. If theres one thing ive gotta stop doing is laboring over a sound. Anyway, really cool song! good luck!

as I already said at KVR,

I'm not fulltime doing contests,
I've got much other work.
I wont have 3 hours time for this.

maybe my fault ;-)

but usually contests run for a month or so.

I tend to work on the sounds too...just that when it sounds good, I go with it. Unfortunately, my sound design skills aren't as sharp as I'd like. But then again, I've made 12 albums in 15 years :)

Just wanted to give Kudos to the other two entries. Sebovzeoueb's song is a beautifully crafted piece, with lots of complexity and slow build. Spiral's song is an cool ambient track and sounds totally different from the other two. Again, a nice testament to what you can do with the right building blocks in Live.

Nice job, everyone! Hope more are coming.

PS - Spiral, can you turn up the volume of your Flash player? it sounds really low.

Hello all - thought I'd sneak my effort in at the last minute - I already own Beatbox and Modmachines but thought I'd give it a stab for the pure fun of it.

Here's the link:

Cheers and good luck to all!

PS Is there gonna be a beatbox version of this challenge?
