I guess because of the method used in recording these tracks;
hence, there is not a lot of signal processing.
The first track is a tracker mix since I have no Midi to CV converter (for
synth parts) with Midi driving the 808 going through a DJ mixer back into a
sound card :panic:

Needless to say I scrapped this project and am working on newer material with a
better gear set up .

Actually I liked that LoFi sound... otherwise these tunes are just plain stupid ;) no offense. And maybe you should consider using vocoder of some kind :D

I used Cubase VST 4.1
and Recycle on the last track importing to Cubase.

For example, on the first track I set up a 16 step (1 bar) loop and selected an extra stereo track in Cubase to record on.
While recording the track in loop mode I muted individual Midi and audio parts in Cubase and the audio outs along with outboard gear went into the DJ mixer.
When you quit out of Cubase the stereo track is saved to the hardrive.
Another example of this would be in this track

I'm more into techno that's why I haven't bothered.
