Re: MBurns' music is actully Copywritten!
It was all done through Cubase 6. I composed most of the material on my keyboard at home. When I felt a track was ready, I would go to the studio, spend 2 hours or so warming up and I'd record on my Steinwey & Sons Grand Model B. The room the piano is in is rather small. Fortunately, Cubase has plugins that can emulate the sound being recorded in a bigger room.
Most tracks were recorded within 5-10 takes. Etude on a Nimbus took a little over 40 takes. Tracks with effects like Dreamspace and Fog used Cubase plugins. Tristram was recorded entirely on a keyboard because it heavily uses effects, echo, etc.
That's about it. It's mostly just me playing. For Fog, the part between 1:00 and 1:30 where it sounds like controlled chaos, that was actually layered recordings. I'd venture to say it's technically impossible to play. Maybe someone who's just batshit crazy could pull it off, I dunno. I tried because I had the idea in my head and I just wasn't ever able to nail it so I recorded 3 parts and layered em. That's the most editing that took place in any track.
