Alright, so if I wanted a desktop pc exclusively for producing, what price range would I be looking at for something good/decent and not just trash that will having me hating life in a year
I don’t come to these threads but I’m glad to see one in the catalog, not enough generals. Have a bump
>I don’t come to these threads
bitch, you just did, so clearly you do. Why you always lyin? Bitch ass niggas here, I swear
No, not that one
It's like >60 labeled drum machines. There's a copy on Reddit I think, not sure. There are multiple slightly different ones
Also fuck those wavsupply and ardist packs from Reddit dude, they sound like shit
Does anyone here know anything about the Seaboard GRAND? I was gifted one for my birthday but for the life of me I can't get it to work properly, I've tried it on two different PC's, ROLI support fucking sucks and their manuals are outdated. Their dashboard application isn't recognizing the Grand when I plug it in to my PC and the only time I did get it to work on one PC by just trying it through Equator it seemed to be working but had no 4D or multitouch capability and just generally didn't work very well at all. I don't think there's anything wrong with the actual instrument I think it's a software or setup issue, as you're supposed to set up the instrument through Dashboard before using it through Equator, and I know you can even use it independent of a computer, it just needs to be set up through a PC, but nothing I try works. I'm desperate here /prod/. Sorry for being a massive noob to production, I play a few instruments but am only just getting started with actual music production.
Is there like a place to get midi rhythmic tropes? I mean for things like glissandi or "drunk playing"
can I get some feedback on this?
>Also fuck those wavsupply and ardist packs from Reddit dude, they sound like shit
Yeah I don't really use them at all
I'll look for the 60 labled drum machines though
I'm working with some GoldBaby packs rn, I'll post the results in an hour or so, its interesting.
>clyp.it
please stop making music
didn't you already post this same exact song?
yeah, but i did some re-mixing per some feedback, just wanted to see what people thought of where it's at now
bump
vocals sound weird, over-compressed maybe?
ditto this but actually on everything
what are you trying to multi-band compress or something? You can't compress away conflicting frequencies man
same place as any other sample packs? midi packs are pretty common, "Drunk" is kind of a hard style to nail, if you find it and it doesn't suck it'll probably be a special company offering it
old.reddit.com
that's not the pack i was talking about but i forgot this wesbite existed... it's been around for a long ass time. There's overlap in these compilations
i made a track that makes me anxious...

The dynamics aren't always there, I'll admit. But I think the production style is strongly suited toward the intended area.
Overworked in certain places, underworked in others. Its funny, the browser's spell-check thing is perfectly willing to accept "overworked" with no space, but "underworked" gives the red line.
My dumb ass then tried to test it out by putting a space before the -worked part of the word. Of course when you spell two individual words correctly, there's not going to be spell-check error...
>modern rap
That ones a bit bouncier, I guess. Tried to do that repetition thing that you hear in a lot of radio tracks these days. You know how they do.
But dumb and hopefully mildly entertaining music.
Thanks for the feedback guys, just went through the mix quickly and removed a bunch of compressors and tried "softening" the whole thing
does this sound any better, you think?
>anxious...
what how
bro you gotta turn your vocals way up
.... pretty cool mostly
yes it sounds better but nobody wants to listen to every fucking update, use your own ears m8
>/prod/
Need an echo plugin, what would you recommend?
I like soundtoys
just buy a space echo you fuckin casual
Where do I download this, can only find 32 bit versions
I wish, they're very expensive
Read these two posts:

If you want a desktop, never buy a premade one. Set a budget and use pcpartpicker to apply what's in the above posts to build a good computer.
Make sure to post your build in /g/'s pc building threads, so they can make suggestions on things like a component being known for failing soon and things like that.
Don't let them tell you what to sacrifice for what, because they're morons and will make dumb suggestions like "get a weaker CPU so you can afford this better GPU so you can get a better framerate on modern games".
Use the two posts above to choose the priority of the components.
i don't know to pirate i paid on the bundle
overpriced!
jokes aside I just use either an emulation from the reaktor user library or the one in guitar rig
>GPU so you can get a better framerate for 4k porn

Hahaha

its like if i didn't pay or any body else you wouldn't get to pirate it
That's exactly right sucker. Keep paying so I get to use shit for free lmao.
honestly i don't know what you mean by this for me i don't care if i pay and you get for free
Good. Keep not caring about that. Always do the right thing! (even if it undermines you)
Based good goy.
So I mainly score music with a lot of sample-based elements. Would anyone be able to recommend a VST that provides good, 'modern' electronic elements? There are a ton of synths out there, and it's kind of an entirely different world then picking out horn of string libraries.
Xfer Serum is the best all-around synth.
hello retards i was asking about synthesis last time, I’ve since began reading msp.ucsd.edu
it’s pretty cool, I don’t think there’s a name for this ‘dirty yet pragmatically theoretical’ learning style, but it’s definately my preference. excuse my verbosity, but allow me to give an example: chapter one has you dealing with harmonic oscillators, yet also demands excersizes that support the equations in Pure Data, and it gets you plugging up insterlng synthesized sounds quickly while understanding the theory / maths
i shat on pure data a lot previously. (for being a “””graphical””” programming language) but this book has changed my mind. i was growing so frustrated before that i considered rolling my own DSP engine, and this book was recommended to me as a path to DSP and I’ve enjoyed it so thoroughly so far.
this book is both pragmatic and theoretic. thank me later
additive synthesis + ml s the future and you’ll be seeing more of me
where do the smartest, most mathematically and technically inclined people in music hang out?
if you post the acapella to the second one i'll give you some tenor r&b vocals for a chorus if you want
> pastebin.com
whoever wrote this is fucking retarded and knows NOTHING about making music.
this book, also written by a retard. it's needlessly complicated and teaches a bare minimum, which is surprising since the author just loves to throw up simplistic equations followed by a load of misleading and incomplete shit. whoever recommended this book to you should be shot for wasting your time.
At Loop:

recommend an alternative then? it’s been very comforting so far
If Miller Puckette is a retard to you, I can't wait to see what creations a genius of your caliber managed to make.
good looking book my dude, thanks for sharing
hand over the ncurses daw / linux terminal workflow now or die
does anyone need a vocalist i'll work for free
hey guys sorry for posting this song so many times, but i think it's pretty close to cooked
any feedback would be awesome, especially pertaining to the mixing, since i don't have a great setup for that
i don't mind lad, it keeps the thread bumped
what would you call the synth sound at the start of this song? want to find a tutorial but dont know what id call it youtube.com
oh shit i gotta listen to this album now
i would tell you but that's secret weapons-tier
... it's not a synth
MAYBE
what style?
I want to fucking die, why am I so fucking shit. Why am I so fucking impatient fuck, I don't like anything in llife. Anytime I have to make music or write lyrics, I choke, my brain goes fucking blank. what do? When I'm drunk, I don't have this fucking problem, do I have to go to a therapist?
go post on r9k Demarcus wtf
I'm not DeMarcus bro, I'm 1000x worse and I don't want to go on r9k anymore, it fucks my mental health even more
its 100% a synth, eprom and alix perez use similar sounding ones
i can think of 3 ways to try it
HOLD UP imma git it
>Worse than demarcus
weird larp but okay
I think I know how to make something similar in Serum.
Give me a moment and I'll try something.
this is my first time posting this thread btw, just saw the other guy who posted his song a few times lol, i've been posting this almost all week though
its a fairly common sound, you can hear it on this track as well, theres got to be a youtube tutorial but i dunno what to search
yeah i'm fucking stupid and was about to try something convoluted.
Serum duh lol
Is this close enough?
instaud.io
I think I got the gist down, but the exact harmonic content needs a bit of work.
It's basically serum's two oscillators set to saws with max unison and a lot of spread, being fed into a highpass, then a "reverb" filter, then an actual short reverb.
After that I just highpassed it gain outside of Serum and nothing else.
Yeah, I remember hearing it a few times before. It's most likely something simple.
sounds dope to me
I did the exact same thing but with custom tables and threw an envelope to make the detune gradual like vocals lol
it's actually pissing me off that i can't get this sound perfect........ TAKES ME BACK MAN
gotta try again tomorrow. imma get angry determined sleep >:(
.... hasta manana
Yeah, accurately recreating sounds is one of the hardest things in production.
>imma get angry determined sleep
Alright, I'm gonna say it.
Good night user.

a bit fucked, but whatever. A big artist pirating a plugin probably generates plenty of legit sales.
>implying music isn't based on math
>t. nerd who can't write a catchy melody to save his life.
no, it's not based on math
You don't understand what "based on" ontologically implies, sorry.
A painter's work is also "based on" light waves of different length.
But anthropology-wise, art is NOT based on math despite some modernist attempts that became trite novelties long ago. It's based on imagination, an ability to evoke emotion or image, and artistic perception.
sad because at that point you should have enough money to but what you use

Any feedback
Holy shit I cant write a satisfying non-classical intro to save my life anymore
Not sure if you're still lurking. It's better than the first but incredibly vanilla song overall. Try going for a rawer vocal and production style and it might turn out decent. Nobody wants to hear super clean trash.
Needs stronger low end. Also maybe transition into that little part you close with earlier in the song, that was probably its strongest point and it just kinda stops after 5 seconds.
definitely reel the keys in a bit, they're pretty muddy. I'd also take out the gunshots...
I've been working on this song for a while, one man band kinda deal. any feedback for some final mixing/mastering tweaks before I release it?
so i can just skip all this theory bullshit and start making some beats?
who dis
the fucking cracked version on audioz with 2 parts is retarded what the fuck an i supposed to do with all r00,r01,r02...
Just a reminder that these are the people who argue against piracy.
i dont argue against it bro, there's no keygen anywhere, i dont get it
there should be nfo file with instructions
the only thing you really need to understand for making beats is rhythmic shit like accents and maybe some permutation and syncopation and then being able to tell when a sample is out of tune and that's about it
You need to install WinRar and use it to extract from the first one (I thnk the one numbered 00).
The crack is usually inside a folder called R2R, along with the instructions.
You'll find the R2R folder inside the compressed archive.

Do you guys want to do something like last artist standing for /prod/? Like making a song a week or something?
Sure.
I propose every monday we start a song with something in common (say, we all remix the same classical piece like we've discussed the other day) and the following sunday we post our results.
We could start hyping it up in the threads we'll have until Monday so that people know about it beforehand (instead of only those who are present during the first monday), and post about it in each OP to recruit partecipants.
What do you guys think?
we could strawpoll the winner too.
I'm for a weekly thing. Like that failed /ss/ contest that was going to be minimal wave for the first week.
Here's the classical midi pack mentioned in the other thread:
www7.zippyshare.com
We could potentially use these for remixes.
OK. Realistically, starting with a classical piece is a little high on the difficulty curve. Keep in mind a large part of the /prod/ population are beginners. It's not a bad idea per-se but I think for the first one we should just keep things simple.
>drunk playing
look up quintuple and septuple metre
There are tons of very simple pieces.
I'm sure any toddler can learn to play the simple variation of Ah vous dirai-je Maman by Mozart on the piano in no time.
We'll just have to choose something that's not too difficult (a lot of the most famous classical pieces are actually pretty simple) and everyone will be able to load up the midi in the DAW and play around with it.
I also like the idea of remixing some Demarcus tracks, but he's have to give us the stems, or not everyone will be able to remix it.
I remember seeing a YT video of a ton of Yea Forumstants singing a Grimes song like a giant choir.
We could do something like this during the week and start to remix it from the following monday.
>soundtoys
rutracker
>space echo
there are a few decent emulations out there. Surreal Machines' Modnetic and AudioThing's OuterSpace to name a couple. AudioThing bundle is easy to pirate but some plugins tend to deactivate themselves occasionally, in that case you just have to load the license file again. I never found a working torrent for Modnetic so I bought it for $70. It actually has some really nice old school reverbs too (especially the 404 spring), + some cool modulation effects.
>monday
why not the weekend?
t. wagecuck
youtube.com
Oh it as just 29 people. I remembered much more than that.
also I don't know how I feel about Midis. Im new to this Prod. general and your contests but wouldnt samples be better maybe? You could also take Remix stems from a (Semi)popular song. I believe on audioz they sometimes have stems for remixes for download.
consider Dexed
youtube.com
How do I earn $$$ with music?
The day is irrelevant we can pick any, the thing i worry is people will probably start using trips.And with that elitism comes.
sell fire beats
The plan is to start the contest on monday (anyone can start at any point in the week and work on the song throughout it) so that we could all gather on sunday to post what we've made during the week, and restart the process the following day.
We can see who remixes a song better if that is easier.
it's all about attitude
I initially thought of midi because you can replace the sounds, make your own, and create all kinds of variations on it, PLUS, you can find samples of them and have both.
We could definitely include samples of recorded performances alongside the midi.
Yeah either take an acapella or check if there are stems for the song online somewhere
there's a way to do it that saves you some CPU power by not having load up multiple instances of sampler
>load one sampler
>open zone section
>drop 128 samples into zone
>click "key" button
>select all samples, right click, select "distribute ranges equally". this will apply a separate instance of the sample to the 128 available midi keys
>select each sample and set the pitch and detune to taste
AudioZ is unreliable for stems.
remixpacks.ru
you can make it work but not without a lot of trial and error
Or just use this:
maxforlive.com
oh cool site thanks user
damnnn
That makes sense.
Monday it is then.
Which song do we choose?
FIRST TRACK I'VE EVER FINISHED!!!!
It feels so fucking good, even if it's kinda awkward in places. Hey I just started, hopefully im on the right track
I propose the Turkish March
youtube.com
Good job
I'm fine with this.
personally I never remix, would prefer a theme or constraint of some sort
>personally I never remix
This could be an occasion to start.
i think remixes are the best to compare tho. themes can be laid out too vague and give an experienced producer a much higher advantage than if were all working with the same samples or midis
another idea would be to choose a song at random somehow. because i don't know if you already made a remix for the turkish march user ;^)
thanks brother, still quite a few touch ups. But im mostly happy with it
what do you think of my wip
also dub url *dab*
That's also good, but I don't know how it could be implemented.
Which songs are you gonna choose to pick from?
I just chose the Turkish March because it's short, simple (has a lot of repeating elements so beginners don't get lost in trying to make vastly different parts work), everybody knows it, sounds good, and it has pretty distinct sections that could work well for electronic genres.
You can suggest something better, but I thought of this the other time we discussed this and nothing else came to my mind in the meantime that's better than this.
Work on those drums, sound really muddy and in the back
does spotify or some website have a random button? Are there any sites we can have someone put alot of songs into a playlist and hit random?
You would have to trust the user that presses the button.
The most transparent way is to do it like the /FSR/ and assign equal numeric ranges to the songs and roll with the post that the list is posted in.
This way the result is picked automatically in a way that we can all see and verify.
Yeah, I'm a beginner and I feel that something like the Turkish march would be doable for me.
Until someone posts something better, I vote for it too.
yeah turkish March is not too bad but i find it personally kinda hard to do sth. with it.
well with the random thing you could take the Yea Forums chart for example then roll for (the genre first maybe? and then) an album and then for the song. on the other hand i cant stand most of it. And Copyright issues.
We could also just limit ourselves to public domain music and roll that out somehow. (I don't mean shit like YouTube library music or Kevin mcleod type trash but just in general older music that is public Domain now.
Yeah, the problem is that there's very little overlap between music that doesn't have copyright issues and music that have available stems and/or midi.
Classical fits these requirements prefectly.
Although desu it's not like I'm releasing this on a lable or anything, so I don't really care about the copyright. If others feels the same way we could just choose among what's available on remixpacks.ru.
yeah i also don't really care about copyright t b h.
Well everyone can mention what they prefer (so far we have turkish march, random classical or random public domain (aka old music), remix stems or acapellas.
Then make a strawpoll.
>random classical or random public domain
How do you choose among these?
Take an online list (Playlist maybe or Wikipedia) add Numbers to the songs, roll.
I just did this:
kickassclassical.com
Then used random.org to generate a truly random number and I got 39.
Also did this:
en.wikipedia.org
And I got 37.
lol bro
lets just sample drop it like its hot
i cant write lyrics, kill me
i cant make a song
because i have no sense of meaning
i'm ridiculous
It's decided then.
But in all seriousness, I'm thinking we shouldn't choose the song right now, or someone might start working on it right away.
I think we should set the system up now and choose the song on sunday so we all start at the same time.
Too late.
My legacy is fully shat on and my career is over.
Thanks a lot asshole.
look at me im a big fat loser

i fly solo shoot your mom with my blaster like san holo
yeah good idea. we can work on a random and/or democratic system to choose the song in the meantime.
I'm sorry who are you?
10/10
i'm user, who are you?
i'm user, who are you?
This is dumb, just do an "everyone flip the same sample" challenge. And everyone has to incorporate that sample into their song. Like say the sample is an interview with Frank zappa or something random like that.
Take granulators and make percussion or pads out of it etc.
another user here. hey user that first user was me, "user". The other user was user. careful not to get that mixed up user ;)
whooooo are you?
who who
who who
We already tried this. Didn't work.
Also beginners might not know how to manipulate a sample creatively to use it to its full potential, so you end up only having the sound design autists partecipating.
cringe
>WhoOOOoohh do you think you are?*
Sorry, Autocorrect.
yeah maybe but i wont do something unmusical like an Interview or some shit.
Also were not all some Andrew huang Level producers. I personally don't know how to make a full drumset out of a normal sentence and i don't wanna learn it either, i just wanna make music.
Bluepilled.
cringe
Then I guess remixing a song is the only way. Even tho remixing songs is fucking lame. That's one step above "chill hip hop beats to study and relax to"
muzzie
i propose this sample
>Andrew huang level
He's really not that good lol. If you said Mr.Bill I'd agree, but andrew is very very basic nothing interesting about his pumping side chain 4 on the floor snare on 2 and 4
Sorry, Autocorrect.
I remember when we did the freesound roulette some anons posted how they used completely random samples to make all the sounds in their songs.
You can probably find it in the archive if you want.
Depends on the kind of remix. If you only change a couple of things or remake it with the same essence, then yeah it's not that interesting, but if you have the stems and/or the midi you turn it into something completely unrecognizable.
yeah mr bill was the guy i meant. he was really good but i don't wanna make a song out of one sentence like he did that seems too much of a hassle lol
>Mr.Bill
youtube.com
Had a good chuckle. Regardless of how funny that is, he's still the best out of all of them.
Yeah, probably the most skilled producer on YouTube.
yeah
We could have 50 classical songs from here:
en.wikipedia.org
And the top 50 stems from here (a lot of them seem to be shitty EDM, but I can't think of another way to randomize the stems portion):
remixpacks.ru
i'm glad you guys are showing initiative but this has been pretty cringe desu
Why would someone produce and make a sample pack that is basically a whole song when they could just release a song?
Dude stop shitting on our legacy.
Because the sample packs probably makes them more money and expands their reach to people who wouldnn't have otherwise heard of them
"construction kits"
cancer man.
people that make those are able to literally just shit them out, it's no big deal for them.
it deserves to be shat on
cringe
I bet you don't even have a legacy.
You're just here to shit on other people.
You're just anus from head to toe and can't help but shit on everything 24/7.
At least my legacy is merely shat on. Yours is entirely just pure shit.
And I shit on it.
its always cringe

Dungeon Trap is the next weekly challenge for /prod/
Love it.
Sounds like dubstep to me.
I don't believe you.
LMAO nice frog voice, do a whole meme song that way and you'll blow up on youtube for a day or two
Did you loop riffs? I hear hiccups in the song, for example at 26 seconds and one earlier
Synth1, Dexed and OBXD (the holy trinity)
delete this
synth1 is a fucking toy
dexed is completely inferior to fm8 and sytrus
obxd.... actually is okay
people need to hop off the synth1 thing already
If I can learn the basics of trap beats quickly enough I'll participate. I usually only do dungeon synth and demarcus's posts were too funny in how he unintentionally blended both. I'm still of the opinion he should drop his trap act and sell some ds tapes on bandcamp.
Do you really think anybody would buy that
People buy a lot of not so good ds stuff as long as it's on tape
I think you underestimate the drive DS nerds have to "support the few artists that make the very specific kind of music I like".
Literally who cares if you make trap beats? It's you and 100k other dipshits trying to cash in on 1000k dipshits just following pop trends.
If you make good DS all 1k of the people who actually like it will love you.
I don't have a tape machine, just FabFilter Saturn.
I don't do it on purpose though. I don't even know what qualifies as dungeon synth in order to sell it. Does it have vocals? Drums? Would these last two songs I did fit? I don't know. I'd feel weird, like I'm taking advantage of people, I just want to get good at alt-pop and hip-hop.

here you go little buddy, imbibe some philosophy
what the hell is this
how do i make songs like aphex twin
Jerk off over muh analog hardware and chop breaks vro
get really nihilistic and then huff glue until your sleep deprived
Real opinion, please, from anywon willing to participate. Is it true that the vocals are too low? I mix on really bad speakers, but they sound too loud to me. Do you think I'm just getting really bad feedback resonance ore some other Star Trek shit?
>the mix sounds equal to me?
>am I retarted or just deaf from playing too many drums?
Fuck you Demarcus. No more Clyp for you.
what are your guys favorite free synth packs?
bro yes they're too low. way too low. use reference tracks. use multiple different speakers/headphones that you>synth packs
synth.... packs?
is that something people actually buy?
i get wavetables or presets but that just sounds dumb
it's just downloadable packs that come with a bunch of synths in them you can get them for free
oh you mean like bundled vsts?
I know melda and blue cat offer bundles but iirc those are just effects, i've never heard of people bothering with synths, usually people like to pick and choose
yeah, that's how i've been getting most of my synths i just kinda download a bunch and hope there's some good stuff in there.
>dexed is completely inferior to fm8 and sytrus
in what regard exactly?
Never used FM 8 but Dx7 V has a high fidelity mode and allows you to use shaped operators, not just sine waves among other enhancements.
soundcloud.com
Any feedback on this? People are telling me that the sound quality is a bit muffled? Hope my monitors are not messed up
more routing options, more flexible envelopes, more flexible oscillators.......... like way.
i've got plenty of problems with fm8 but it's still the undisputed king. Somebody explained sytrus to me in depth once but i forget its specific advantages. If you want to into fm sound design for real you should step up from dexed mate. It can sound nice obviously but it's just not in the same league
somebody already mentioned obxd

Bazille CM Is good too

rewire or buy it dipshit
yes bazille cm is based I got it free on some german website and it was a build called beatzille the cm version hase more presets though
I find it hard to have joy in anything bros. I want to have fun making music again. I can only find joy in mindless consumption, but when I have to do something, I get frustrated, why? I'll be doomed to be homeless or with a shit job until the day I die.
I want to make music, but I don't find the joy. I hate myself guys.
Wrong board
fuck off
who could it be...?
Hey amigo, never seen you here ;)
>Actually making something I kind of like
>Go to arrange it
>Everything completely falls apart
holy fucking shit is there any way to actually fix this
I dunno how to fix it i don't really like the melody there. not to be rude or anything but personally id just do something new, don't see a way to do something good with that annoying melody.
oh user i didnt mean to be rude. I also write a lot of melodies that i trash after writing them. It's just my personal advice to start over. The arrangement itself isnt bad btw, drums are good.
You weren't rude don't feel bad
Am I cool yet?
instaud.io
What is your procress when writing music? Do you do things by ear or do you have a scale in mind before doing? Also what is the most fun tool to make sound design? Will youtube tutorials help me to git gud? Thanks for your help.
All you need is Based Gutta videos
get to work
>/prod/
Should I try find a cheapish Korg ES-1 /EMX or buy a Digitakt?
Synth1 is all you need
>soundgoodizer
Why use the inferior option when a much superior plugin exists?
decided to just turn it into a trap beat since I couldn't get the original to work . wip.
lol
Does anyone have any videos that show a before and after mix for vocals? I really need to see the changes in action.
Don't have a specific video but here you should find something to your liking:
youtube.com
A tutorial on vocals for anyone interested:
audioz.download
I synthesize a sound. For me it starts with the timbre then harmony then melody
Generally with other musicians, mathematicians, engineers, or anyone else who actually put in the time and effort to learn their craft.
The fuck you think youll get from them is the question I wanna know, because it definitely isnt respect if you're this much of a faggot outright.
you just should stop writing beats thats where music starts
youtube.com
I was watching this. Why should I learn to mix? I literally hear no difference. Do I have a problem? How can I train my hear to differentiate a good mix from a bad mix? When I make a beat I put all instruments at the same level. Also I use Mixbus, is that a good software?
Could you upload this without percussion?
beats are still music
What are you listening with?
It could be that your equipment isn't good enough or your ear isn't trained enough to notice these differences outright, but when you applythem all together they add up to make a make a huge difference.
>tfw I'm spending all of my free time pirating sound packs and updating my plugins instead of making music
Anyone else do this?
I use an old Nintendo DSi earphone, that indeed doesn't work very well(I need to put the volume at +11Db to hear anything correctly)
I will buy decent headphones in the future
no
Well there you go.
(Thank you btw)
No problem.
The greatest shortcut to reduce the problems of bad listening equipment is to constantly A/B your song with professionally mixed and mastered songs.
Find something that sounds amazing in a similar genre, download a lossless version, and constantly compare it to your song by switching back and forth.
As you find shortcomings in your track, fix them to the best of your ability and move to the next one.
Your song will definitely sound much better this way, and most importantly it will be more balanced.
The pros use reference tracks too even with great equipment, so you should be doing it anyway.
I will try. Thank you again.
Glad to help user.
No I use hardware
Maybe I should buy a controller
buying shit won't fix your autism
Please stop using autism as an insult. I feel deeply offended.
yeah same im just downloading 100 gigs of plugins lol
didn't use it that way hermano
Maybe not, but it will at least fill me with a sense of accomplishment
isn't your aim to fill the world with good music? or are you into production for girls?
No you should focus on what you have. That's why DAWs are a shitty way of starting to learn music. Too many ways of doing things and too many possibilities.
Both, but I think guitar players have an advantage with the girls
I'm only dicking around cause my hard drive crashed. I managed to save my projects and software, but I had to reinstall my libraries
I think it really depends on if you started on instruments vs software. I use maschine + bitwig which is kind of a hybrid, and it works well for me. Ideally, I'll have hardware synths in the future, but that's out of my tax bracket
I hate fucking gigs. There are so much instruments that I want to use that are in gigs but my fucking DAW doesn't support gigs.
>tfw youre going to be the next avicii
feels good bros
what? i meant like gigabytes lol
Suicide by slicing your neck with a bottle?
>my fucking DAW doesn't support gigs
What does this mean?
lol no i meant like production wise kek you got me bro
if you had to choose btw girls and great music what would you pick?
I also thought that that was what you meant.
Me too.
Personally I blame Demarcus.
.gig file samples
Gigasampler's samples file extension
>Gigasampler
Ah cool, never heard of it.
>Demarcus
who?
It's like an .nki or a .sfz or a .sf2
A kid who constantly posts here about wanting to kill himself.
Got it.
Is it a popular format?
I guess.
I don't think a woman or any person at all could give me the emotional and spiritual fulfilment that music does. Producing is like meditation or prayer for me.
very based
