Maybe my messages didn't go thru?

So, no no software for sequencing (well... akai software of the mpc500 and
some octatrack) hence the title of my thread:
*Music made _with fun_ thanks to GNU/Linux*
;)

I use ardour as a mixer and its sequencer to delete eventual errors that
occured during the recording session. Pretty oldschool to be frank, but my
workflow was build on physical recorders. I am a big fan of Lee scratch
Perry style.

Maybe some of you notcied that i really love the calf plugins suit.
Especialy the compressors and spaciotemporal FXs (delay reverb). I usualy
go one take for the beat, one take with "instrumental" adlibs, one take for
vocals, and some takes for backing vocals. In that order. But tracks like
"Ner I Malmö" or "Par Hazard" are pure oneshots vocals included, that i ran
thru a compressor before uploading. Some tracks i ran thru JAMin also. But
i've got a lot of work to do on my mastering skills. I still tend to lose
focus on what needs what when i fiddle with finetuning.

Please feel comfortable with asking anything about what how when and
whatnots :)

Yours,
