Sure, as long as you don’t quantize or chop and copy.

I don’t know if it would qualify as the sine wave click is on the grid and is the only drum haha but everything else was played live (the other melody too was me fooling around on the keyboard and I didn’t quantize the recording, I think, it’s a bit old though but I’m too lazy to do this kind of thing anyway)

Oohhhh the dancing! The hiaircut, taxidos, all is perfect!
I put this together over the weekend. It’s a Wavestate and FM8 recorded into Reaper. It was inspired by all the Juncos digging through the remains of this year’s garden. They’re funny little beasts.

About the sine wave, -3 points then on the final score 
Gotta be a bit strict about this as it is at the core of the challenge.
Lovely tune though, cheers for submitting.

Read this thread as “A Human Torch.” Potential idea to the winner - just spitballin… one must create a track by any means they desire while self-immolating.

Halloween improvisation ! 
Challenging and interesting but I still prefer programing drums, quantized recordings / loops, quantized midi recording, synced fx, arp…otherwise I’d problably buy a multitrack tape recorder…
Akai MPK Mini Play general midi sounds only (no midi), 6 tracks recorded with Octatrack (no fx).
- Looped drum track (4 bars)
- Additional drums
- Fretless Bass
- Strings, manual filtering
- Voice Oh
- Music Box
Volume automation in a DAW (Samplitude), some reverb, compressor on master.

Why not. 5 live takes of overdub in Studio one as recorder. As it is Elektronauts 4 layers Digitone and 1 layer Digitakt for drum part “played” live with a 25 key midi keyboard. no sequencing or copy parts. 5 record takes on top of each other with different Heat settings. Was quitte fun to do actually.

Here is my contribution. Meditative groove, playing synthy-percussive samples on the RYTM II (live played 4 bar loop), bass & guitar noodles, some OB6 & Odyssey and an unhealthy abuse of my newly acquired Collision Devices Black Hole Symmetry pedal.

Great isn’t it.
Nice track too.

Cheers! And yes, it really is a very good pedal. Love all the individual effects, nicely tuned, very dark though, a good thing.
Last call, submissions are open until this Sunday.
