Looking for a good way to create cut-up beats and sounds like the way Aphex Twin does it. I guess there are several ways to do this, but if anyone could give me som tips (Sequenzers? Drum machines? Samples?) I would very much appreciate it. It's probable all about technique, isn't it?
!Thanks |

I am sure there are many way to go about it. Your best bet would be to use abledom live (sp?). I think this program would be great for chopping audio samples. Of course without having ever heard of Pmhex Twin, I can't possibly nail it down for you. If your talking about a long event (car crach, rithem loop) you can chop it up in any audio sequencing program, but you run a big chance of ending up with pops, and would be a looong drawn out prosess filled with trial and error. Where as abledon is more of an "acidized" type of program. If you are talking about rapidly hitting or repeditive type of events, then I usually go with a midi sequencer. But that's only because I don't have Abledon... yet

Have a look at Phatmatik Pro, great for slicing up beats.
http://www.bitshiftaudio.com/products/phatmatikpro/ You will need a sequencer host such as Logic, Performer or Cubase (logic is my preference and the future versions of Phatmatik will be Audio Unit only; not supported by Cubase). Have a listen to the Madonna "music" remix on the bitshift site to get an idea what it does. Also as kaboombahchuck has said have a look at Ableton Live. I've got both of them. |

i agree that abelton and phatmatic are good suggestions for doing glitch as a beginner. maybe even look into running phatmatic as a vst plugin inside of Ableton Live (people often refer to Live as Ableton because the word 'Live' is such a vague dumb name for an app- just fyi).
reaktor is also a good choice, but not for beginners so much- it's a program that breaks down synths and samplers into their component parts and lets you put them together like logical leggo's. it's a deep and wonderful program, but the learning curve is kinda steep and the app is expensive too. good luck! (oh jeez, i just noticed how old this thread is- the original poster will likely never benefit from my wisdom! ::sigh:

hey why dont you go pick up acopy of futuremusic, i think its this month's issue, it has an article featuring scott herren.. you know (prefuse 73, delarosa &asora, etc).. i think for the most part he uses an mpc or whatnot.. and he mentions the "tactile feeling" and a digi 002, so primarily sample based and igenuity im assuming, but anyways.. i thought that might give you some more insight into what your tryin to do.. but then again i wouldnt recommend going and getting the same setup..without trying to figure out the best option budget wise or whatnot..
