    Another month has come and i regret not doing a coarse with dubspot i will continue to watch every video you put out but i need to get the up grade to ableton this month. Soon i will get instruction on how to really use it. Till then i will explore and see how well this audio to midi brings my imagination to reality.

    A little bit of reverb in his voice and you can call it a good track. 1:00 - 5:30

    Selway n his chorus. I think he crazy glued the chorus button to the on position, on his Juno 106, as a kid =) OSC 2 reminds me of Altern8, without the cool masks n vicks vapor rub of course. Gr8 job, "Spy"! I'm totally gonna jack this idea. Miss ya brotha!

    why not? It widens the mids/highs and gives the bass more depth. The highpass on the chorus stops the sub frequencies from becoming stereo.

    I've stopped at 8:43 (nice tutorial, athough nothing new for me there) so I've no idea what's afterwards, however - focus on the tricks with additve matrix, self modulation and oscilator phase - that's where the real fun begins.
