What is the better scratchpad for ideas, Bitwig or Ableton?
Okay, I understand the process for submitting a song to the album. What I need to know now: is this a songhttps://vocaroo.com/1aj16LLwDjwb
why are there so many low effort trolls with online music prod? fucking sucks trying to find any likeminded souls
Went to my local guitar center to check out some equipment, wow the circuit tracks is absolutely tiny. Looks too cute to make any beats
>>102337386that's just 4chan m8reddit is equally bad but with hugboxing, pick your poison
>>102338115>that's just 4chan m8it wasn't always
>>102338158yep... we remember...
>>102337618idk if they updated the firmware but it is/was extremely limited for a sampler groovebox thing
How do I do microtones over midi?Does bitwig enable this?
>>102338526googling must be too hard for you
>>102338714yeh
Do you make any money from ya music?
>>102339383I used to make peanuts but then my paypal account got suspended for whatever reason. I fucking hate how it's the only bandcamps payout option.
>>102337155Yes
>>102338427Thoughts on the drumbrute impact? Been wanting an analog machine that still have fundamental digital capabilities and this looks killer for the price
>>102341224>Thoughts on the drumbrute impact?incredibly underwhelming sounds, would rather have the connections of the drumbrute, and limited in not being able to recall things like presets. neither of them is for me though, you should try it yourselfi don't think there are any great new and cheap drum machines, compared to just using a daw. i wanted a drum machine a few years ago, settled on a groovebox, and just unhappy in general with the state of things. i just ended up working in the box all the time
>>102341309Thanks for the heads up, I'll demo it first in store. I feel I might get more done away from my pc, but really just looking for an excuse to get some new shiny machine
>>102341309there have to be people dumping digitakt mk i left and right to buy the new shiny
>>102341710A dude is selling one for 400 on reverb I'm really tempted
>>102341309yeah it really sucks how limited the impact is. analog is a big meme for drum machines and small synths in general. after learning enough stuff with electronics and dsp, i truly don't care about analog vs digital much anymore
>>102337155No
>>102343270I'd be tempted too, but I already have enough stuff. If I had nothing, I'd be on that
I'm so bummed out about how most of the latest and greatest software synths are all so fucking flat and souless.None of them inspire creativity or exude personality; nor do they invoke the feeling of accessing the unobtainable - expensive hardware synths you'll never get your hands on, but a stylish VST GUI may give the closest feeling you could ever get toward owning one......Remember when software synths had air vents? Wood paneling? Realistic looking knobs and sliders?This needs to make a comeback
>>102344933Sounds like a you problem
>>102344942It's my problem modern software synths are souless and aren't stylish anymore?
>>102345050Your opinion. They look perfectly fine and inspiring to me.Maybe you could try being less superficial.
>>102344933they're tools for professionals, excessive skeuomorphism like screw holes is considered laughable, most people care more about features and sound quality than a flashy GUI
>>102344933vital looks fine, pigments is minimal but too cluttered, i hate kilohearts' design, everything on the right sucks
>>102345096Well you don't have to give up sound quality to even simply just have an alt GUI that looks cooler than flat and grey I know Hive 2 has a handful of GUIs floating around out there, some organized way different than the default layout Wouldn't be such a bad thing if the best software synths out there had modable GUIs.....
>>102345280both of those look like ass
>>102345280Serum has themes
>>102344933I still love Sylenth and I refuse to get with the times

>>102344933>slidersTHE WORST KYS UR SELF !!!!Vital is definitely trying to look slightly futuristic, but in general I agree, albeit not at the cost of usability.I want personality but I don’t miss the days of “look how OLD and RETRO (cluttered and sloppy jumpy ass knobs ) xDd!!”

>>102344933Im with you. Soulless looking software creates soulless music.
BUMPIN THAT
idk i feel like the palace and chorus space tail are pretty much the same so it's basically just that diffused attack that's different in vintage verb?(but if you switch it to night mode on modern it's harder to tell of course)Most of the Valhalla reiterations i feel like are pretty justified but there are a handful of them that almost seem like "fixes" to the original algorithms.Idk maybe i haven't a/b'd them enough
>>102348546BUMPITY BUMP MUTHA FUCKAH
>>102344933>>102345280> complains mostly about how it looks instead of how it functions and soundsyeah, you're a fucking idiot.
>>102350020we can have bothi like my guitars to be a pretty color too my jazz bass is sparkly blue :3
>>102350271>we can have bothlooks aren't important at all when it comes to software. you aren't going to be looking at it much unless you're editing a sound.>jazz bass is sparkly bluevery nice
>>102350316it's not any more important than the lighting in your room... or your desktop background.... or the clothes you wear...it doesn't MATTER but actually it does and it's fun to reskin stuff and stuff
>>102350380i don't want distractions, so grey/black is ideal
>>102350380>it doesn't MATTER but actually it doesnever mattered.
>>102352024It mattered a little bit.
>>102352311not even a microbit. i grew up programming music using hexadecimal numbers. pretty sliders, 24bit skins and 3d modelled knobs are bloat.
>>102353225i grew up banging stick on other stick and rememberingeverything else is bloat
>>102354298cope, tyrone.
>>102345859What a fucking god. His only mistake is getting caught. I wish I was half of the man he is.

>>102358209what kind of podcast is this? it sounds like some AI generated ASMR fetish smug giganormies overexplaining to a layman audience.
Thoughts on roland aira s1 for maximum ambient drone synth like Earth and Sunn O)))
>>102358209> talks about subject> doesn't demonstrate anythingsuch people need to be gassed. everyone is worse off after listening to this.
>>102358539>roland aira s1i think very little of it. you get more for your money just buying their aira based VST plugins.

>>102351847For me it's white. I manually set everything on a red filter. Also>James>Unveils Insane X bikeWtf is he doing with a biker, he's a basketball player. Nobody's gonna care if Billy Corrigan shows off a FM dubstep synth
>>102344933Have you considered pirating the Roland instruments? They all mostly just use the actual instrument interface

>>102359531multiple choices allowed
>>102349058Based. I can barely hear the difference between two reverbs that have the same settings.
>>102358840could look at cherry audio synths too if that's the style you're looking for
>>102358603Pls whats a cool and fun analog synth i dont want to be in front of my screen all the time
>>102361247moog one
how does the "blur" effect work in fl studio? edison has a setting for it and fruity delay 3 does as well, it calls them "level" and "spread" in a diffusion section. is it like some averaging kernel it does in the frequency domain?
>>102359252>Please post cover art
>>102364451no.
Aira p6 looks like fun but damn are those pads tiny way too small for me
>>102365585
>>102367159perfection.
Bump
>>102366819looks like yet another toy for hipsters. someone said the aira line is literally for beginners, hobbyists and kids but people are on some copium and defending it even for making full songs.
made it more "listenable" if you'are into thathttps://vocaroo.com/1oGokOQntSoqfeat. stephen root
>>102369603I dont understand why these toys dont have a song mode equivalent or just hands off automation features. I only have two hands I can't be holding a button and turning a knob and be unable to use any other equipment
Anyone got any other good resources like Seamlessr and Composing Gloves? I'm beginning to understand how synthesis works and how sounds are made but I really want to do the automation that they where they're able to have the wave change over time. What is exactly being autmated to make it sound like how it does? Kind of like this. Also when sound designing something do you go with something in mind or just kind of tweaks things until you get something that sounds good?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Uh1LE8W_Vg
>>102371711song mode is for people that make songs. aimless jams are the current meta
>>102344933Bit of a general question but is there really a point of installing a synth other than what comes with your DAW like sytrus and harmor with FL when they can do the same thing? I'm assuming it's just an easier workflow than working from scratch than operators and sine waves or better features.
>>102372024literally all you need is a triangle
>>102372024people who rave about all those subtractive synths never bother to learn their stock plugins. it's from the days of "professional" daws not having any usable instruments which isn't the case for any of the daws hobbyists use now. same shit as "dude i gotta have every single waves plugin and ssl console strip or it just doesn't FEEL right"
>>102372084This is what I've been noticing with a lot YouTubers where it feels like they're always selling you something that you could do in your DAW. Been on a journey trying to learn how to do what I want to purely with FL Studio all plugins edition.
>>102372391best advice i can give is DO NOT watch youtube videos of fl studio unless they're on the official channel. your first trip should be to the official online documentation, they've remade a bunch of tutorials and they're really goodfor in depth, the official channel is where you should go, in the mix for how some specific tools work. synthet and firewalk studios for quick tips.fl is insanely powerful but hardly anyone making vids knows how to use it other than traptards. it's powerful but not refined, so there are a bunch of ways to do the same tasks and some ways you will never discover by yourself. you should learn patcher if you don't know already. peak controller and linking is also very usefulhttps://youtu.be/q5fXg-dINpo&t=30https://youtu.be/XC0_KD2XHEc?t=69i don't have all plugins edition, but the only things i really miss are a decent reverb and a clipper/saturator. luxeverb is amazing though, so next holiday i'll be upgrading. waveshaper and soft clipper exist but they're a little clunkier than i'd like. i can understand people using 3rd party for reverbs and niche effects but most things are complete memes
>>102373110>traptardsIt's unfortunate they've pretty much dominated the tutorial scene.
what xlr mic should I get for recording highly specific foley and small sound effects? i would primarily be recording indoors but weather tolerance is acceptable of course. if there is a low price Chinese microphone that is basically Chinesium wrapped around a NOS capsule from a major manufacturer/OEM I am willing to take a risk
>>102374118not really any good "cheap" mics. some cheap zoom field recorder with a windscreen is probably fine for 99.999999% of cases
>>102372024Other than wavetable morphing stuff you'd find in Serum/Hive 2/Massive X, yeah Sytrus and Harmor will do almost everything else synth wiseIf you want realistic piano/instruments, then you might need other plugins
Hope your daw's drums aren't fluffy
>>102375058There's nothing wrong with what he said
>>102375058people still think there's a massive difference in hard clippers and even paying for shit with no special functions lol>>102376405akshyuallythe more embarrassing part is that he's still questioning this kind of shit after producing for at least 12 years
Is it worth trying to learn and understand plugins? I love using Massive presets but I feel too adhd to learn to design my own sounds. It seems like most music now uses premade sounds with effects.

How to achieve this beat and sound design? https://voca.ro/1belpJ2tJt7Z
>>102376462https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K5JSavlKfio
>>102377016granular , but too low and slowed out of time but played in time
>>102377068How do you sequence a beat that’s out of time but in time with granular?
>>102377150as in the grain size and timing itself is out of sync but the start times are played on the grid
