Art Garfunkel ramble as acid
I made this!
There is a recording of Art Garfunkel issuing streams of word salad at a record producer in the studio, which is GC, and I tried to make some breakbeat/acid music with it.
This is the original "dialogue": www.youtube.com/watch?v=ynHNvbDZuc0

cheers!
It's kind of a mess- all the programming and synthesis is done in Max 5 and then I edit and mix it a little in Audacity. Kind of like taking a soundboard recording of a live set and condensing it down :)

Max and Audacity? Nutter!
I used to be a dab hand at SynthEdit and enjoyed using Plogue Bidule until Fruity launched their Patcher plugin, which does almost everything I needed Plogue for (and I can fake the rest). I was always out of my depth with Max/MSP though.

Wow, Bidule looks very cool and I wasn't aware of Patcher
I got Max with a student discount like 18 years ago and ever since then if I saw a piece of vintage kit I wanted to get I vowed to attempt to build it in Max instead. It took about a year to emulate a TB-303- slide, accent and all, but by then it had a vocoder, FM synth, and tape echo inside it as well :)

I have made several shite 303-a-likes in my time.
None comes close to the best ones which (IMHO) are D16's Phoscyon VST (very flexible and tweakable), and Prophet64/MSSIAH on the C64. ;)
Honorary mention: AudioRealism's ABL. Not as tweakable, less of a screamer, but smooth as silk with the res turned down.

I'm going to have to check those out. I've been using Cakewalk for a couple of years (because free), and only just got a decent grasp of it, eg MIDI board automation was a bastard to crack! Audacity is always on hand too for tinkering..
