this looks quite cool

Looks incredibly tedious!

good explanation and illustrations

I also do stuff like eq/tape-saturation/compression/wow-flutter etc. on most of my samples beforehand.

Regarding my regular workflow on the Z I use it like below:

Tr1 - One shot drum kits containing a full kit (not only kick/snare/hi-hat/fx like you ‘should’ use it on the Z)
Tr2 - Sliced Drumloops
Tr3 - Multisampled instrument (synth/bass/piano/guitar etc.)
Tr4 - Multisampled instrument (synth/bass/piano/guitar etc.)
Tr5 - Bass samples
Tr6 - Melodic samples (pads and plucks)
Tr7 - Melodic samples (plucks and short notes)
Tr8 - Melodic samples (pads and long notes)
FX1 - Half wet or full wet delay with LFO on Pan for ping-pong effect
FX2 - Full wet reverb and bit of LFO on Pan or something else as well
Tape - Effecting chosen melodic content (most of the time Track 8) Fine on 100 (+12 semitones) or Fine on 0 (-12 Semitones) Filter on 30 with a bit of resonance and using a Full Dry signal. Tape track is going thru the full Wet reverb FX2 for a subtle and dark shimmer effect giving everything a more spacious feel
Master - Bit of Chorus (never above 30) and Drive on 50. Punch on 50 and Master around 50.

That’s about it! I am thinking about making a sound pack for the Z soon for the ones interested. The pack will contain most of the sounds of the above Z-Files album.

learned a lot from this. On panning/timing/pitch differences, some volume variation ideas using LCR panning.

cool crossover of sound and electricity

couple of apps and updated cheat sheets for OP-Z howtos

The little exercise of threes was amazing for me. Got this sample pack and actually finally started practicing it!

incredible PDF of drum patterns

The REAPER render dialog supports negative start times!

lot of useful UI tips packed into a few minutes. Different menus to find the switcher in, and different ways to toggle it.

Went with adding button + custom icon to toolbar to toggle for active track
