  • Sonasphere is interesting so far. hard to keep from crashing. to be honest, i'm very new at making music, even newer to doing it on a computer. the idea of programming something then pressing "play" has never appealed to me very much. as a result, i've spent some time looking for something as visually and spacially oriented as this. i've actually been pumping fairlight samples into it, but i'm having to cut them down to the raw loops and that's taking time. i'll be posting an MP3 if i come up with anything interesting.
