Description:

To be honest writing something about my worklflow feels good and helps making some new progress.
There is a lot of repetition and one and another step can be explained. First the normal BPM are 280
but since late changes are now 370. This just worked out best from some experiments.
Second is the routine which samples are right at the beginning of the track. Every sound is engineered
new starting with a kick (Kicker) most cases following by the bass (Watsyn). No idea what the right
term is but kick and bass are four step seperated. Simple easy to make kick-bass rythm.

Kicker can be easy adjusted for kick with the ADSR section. You can leave it with default settings and
just try out some different ASDR styles. Short Hold, Decay and a smooth Realese and attack to errase some annoying click.
Make the right frequency a little bit higher or just go 100% Noice with different adjustments of env. slope and/or distortion and you can get a really strong punching snare.
WIth Watysn for the bass just try out some waves and how they are mixed together. Staying with the same wave is easy to get a feeling for what you like. With really short HOLD you will create a fast bassline. Or you find out how to accompany your track with a fitting bass for a more complex soundpicture.

For now Kick, Bass and Snare are finished. It makes sense to look a the Hihat now. A Hihat is good to be in rythm with track for a beautiful melody. Hihat normally is made out from white noise with a lot of high pass filtering but there are endless option because nearly every short sound high passed can potentially be a HiHat. My route of choice is the tripple oscillator with the upper mixing synced and the lower setting FM-modulated.
Maybe it doesn't matter how the waves are mixed but white noise high passed with this setting resulted in a good enough Hihat.

Now the raw mix has enough rythm to look for the melody now.
Just pick the synth of your choice and choose between fast Arpeggiator oriented melodies, maybe some pad or whole compositions.
There are no boundaries to your imgination. What I like is some Arpeggiator with Tempo Sync, just under the "set to controller" setting appearing if you right click "time". With gate you can choose how long your sound is and the mentioned "set to Controller" can be used for sidechaining with a peak controller.

If you use no Pad but some short guitar like melody you can leave some space betweennotes and try out echo and feedback effects. There are really
identical to a delay and can result in fantastic trance melodies. The alternative is using a Delay instead for example Calf Vintage Delay LADSPA.

The whole text can help to create a Kick,Snare,Hihat and Bass. If you can create this eather like a beginner or professional this desription fullfills it purpose.

This is it for now. Have fun.
