I was very happy when I saw this challenge as this is something I have tired once in the past with not much success and have wanted to try again, this gave me the motivation to try it again, the tutorial helped a lot this time round to get (in my opinion) better results.

Equipment used and also see track image
Folio Notepad mixer - Mixer 1
Foster MN-15 Mixer - Mixer 2 (My partner brought this for me in charity shop)
Boss OverDrive OD-3 pedal (into passive DI box)
Ableton Live for recording and Compression and EQ

I started play around to at first and enjoyed finding new sounds, and was amazed at the variety you could get wth the smallest movement of the control (almost to much it was hard to make chooses). For the first attempts of recording I just hit record and recorded the whole lot, but I wasn't happy with the results of one long continues track. Then the idea came to me to find "sweet spots" and record these with silence in-between. So I set the constants of only changing 5 controls, recording 5 sections which in total should last about 3 minutes. Which is what I did and then added some EQ and compression afterwards (framing of the sound).
