i feel the same way about comet and post-it notes. thankfully there's always tommorrow.
on a personal note: thank you very much for coming out to the derby saturday last. it's always really good to see you and the S4. i hear tell that MNRG has a sunday bout coming up in febuary?if that's so i can finally go see you kick some a$$!
I'm not familiar with this Freezepop of which you speak, but I can recommend both arpeggiators and vocoder with gusto.
If one needs to make a synth more synthy (less organic), arpeggiate it. If it doesn't work for the sound y'r working on, arpeggiate a different sound underneath it. All the sudden all that human stuff is gone and there is nothing but the indifferent mechanized efficiency of the arpeggiated synth.
Vocoders are funny. Talking synth is of course cool. But you can do a hella lot more with one. If you ever need to make a synth sound more organic, try vocoding it, vocalizing the "width" of the pitch. The best way to understand this is to beatbox into a (mic routed to) the modulation signal of a vocoder with the carrier signal being white noise. But the concept works equally well, if you're articulating synth strings with y'r voice, which brings the synth a few steps less removed from the ears/heart/brain/fingers feedback loop.
