hi >I love ACID, but I haven't really figured out how to work with it as much as I would like to (the tutorial isn't very clear, at least not for a computer idiot such as myself). I certainly intend to continue trying to learn, but there's an immediacy about Amen that I really like. Sometimes a cheap piece of gear just does something for you, you know? yes, you're right, but if you've got the best software around for audio editing why not use it? ;) try this: import a drum loop and use the S key on it. This allows to break the pattern in every slice you want. rearrange the slices and you'll have all the variations you need. > >A little plug here: I just uploaded a tune created with Acid too. In >>particular, all the drum programming is done using Acid. > >I downloaded your song, but couldn't unzip it. Winzip kept saying "This file is empty", or something like that. I couldn't erase it, either! Any suggestions? I told you I'm a computer idiot... strange... the file is LeoCavalloREMIX.zip (3.5 MB) on ftp.teklab.com/teklab/incoming.
