I really love the work you come up with. I'd be very interested to see if you had the time to produce a tutorial of sorts. Keep up the solid work :)

Thanks! I have never produced a tutorial before. I am guessing i would need some video editing soft for that. One of the things thats really helped me is making templates in Ableton with the drones that are assigned to instruments. I have several of these for different genres. I can open a template then open the template in SFP and i am ready to go. Also i like to work in 8 bar containers. I have hundreds of progressions and melodies in the main library. The more material you have in libraries it seems the production process will be much faster. I also have a old roland electronic drum kit where i play the drums into a drone that is routed to Toontrack EZdrummer. For all other instruments i use the Ableton Push into a drone or the M-Audio Keystation88.
