This song began with DM1 Drums. I played them into loopy via audiobus and as they played I changed the fx on the fly with Magellan in the FX slot of audiobus. Then I brought the whole thing into Multitrack Daw where I added a bass line from the iFretless bass. Then I used Animoog for 5 tracks. All of the presets were from the add on packs (acoustic, Devine and Greatful Dead) then I opened up my other ipad and used the Super Manetron app that has midi support. I plugged in my Korg MicroKey 25 into my Apogee Jam into the ipad running MTDaw and played the Mellotron flute sound. Then it was sent straight to soundcloud. I hope you like it.
