redpill me on halion 7? i don't like yamaha DX7 and the emulation doesn't nail it anyway
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v3oeqWPEmiU
>But the sounds are very Casio sounding , I was there in 1983 myself and even then thought those sounds were pretty weak. It’s all down to production skills to make these sounds any good. And even then how to use a good sound the right way.
the other sounds seem kinda meh?

>/g/ makes a 14th album
Theme: 90s Trance
Deadline: December 31st
Please post titles and/or cover art

>IMPORTANT! READ THIS BEFORE SUBMITTING:
Upload the file somewhere and post the link here. If you want to update your track, make a new post.
If possible use a lossless format and upload to a file-sharing service, not to a music site like Vocaroo or SoundCloud.
Include the title of the song in the post. Don't rely on us reading it from the filename or tags.
When you post the submission make sure that the song is clearly a submission for the album, otherwise it might get skipped.
Songs that contain anything against YouTube's policies won't be uploaded on YT (but will still be added to the album).
If your track's volume goes above 0 dB it will be clipped for the release.

too many audio software/plugin devs are hacks. just because some of them succeeded in their marketing doesn't mean the quality is all that good. like when you see amateur music artists/producers, most of the time they seem really delusional like what exactly do they think they have to offer to the audience. you can make a living as a mediocre musician but many people don't even get to that stage, plugin companies go bankrupt too or they stay at a hobbyist level.

https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=PDKjcMsmlQs
the songwriting in this is insanely boring to my ears, it's a chore to listen to. you'd let it play in the background or just listen to the sounds and maybe the bassline. then some classically trained nerds might come up with some similarly wacky composition/songwriting if they try really hard but the end product falls flat when they don't have professional production quality and marketing etc.

If something is on AudioZ I'd much rather wait for the direct download than to take the risk on Rutracker.
Unfortunately some things don't seem to be anywhere else, so I'll trust Ivan, but only on scene releases from "reputable" accounts, with a lot of seeders and comments (which you should obviously read). I'll compromise a little on these if I really want the thing, but that's because I'm an adrenaline junkie. You shouldn't live on the edge like me.

Because it just werks and it's stable as fuck.
S1, on the other hand:
>Random clicks and CPU spikes everywhere, even with ASIOGuard
>stock plugins are dogshit (their PRO EQ doesn't even have mid-side processing)
>ARA2 Melodyne is guaranteed to crash your session at random times
>have to rely on third party tools (like Vocallign) to align vocals. Cubase does it natively
>SampleOne still doesn't have a decent time-stretching algorithm while playing one-shot samples
And a lot of other workflow-related things that you can't deactivate, and I'm too lazy to list here. Just like that stupid micro-tuning window that opens on the mixer when you click a plugin.
S1 is ok for hobbyists, but Cubase can't be beat for studio sessions and vocal recordings imo.

sorry to put you on the spot but do you have any theory as to why it might be that only a small number of people like >>103039168 and myself can hear a sound quality issue in arturia synths (pigments, CS-80 V) and in omnisphere. those plugins get a lot of praise but to me it really doesn't sound good. for example tate mc rae - greedy uses an omnisphere preset and that song was a huge hit but it's clear to me that they haven't figured out the absolute top tier production quality so a bunch of her other songs are far less likely to be hits than the songs from the top artists. is it just signal to noise ratio and having a listening environment with low ambient noise and perhaps a smooth frequency response (so that you hear all the details with nothing being particularly hidden/masked by dips/peaks in the frequency response). or might it be phase related since humans can generally cope with some amount of phase rotation per octave and maybe their listening setup doesn't have the ideal phase response so they're not really hearing if one synth has a better phase response than the other since everything they listen to has messed up phase anyway. dan worrall said in one of his video that he didn't hear minor phase issues as long as it was equal across both stereo channels but some people in the comments said that they did hear it although it wasn't the cleanest test since he was casually talking while toggling it on and off.

Okay, quick update. At the start of the year I asked you guys about learning to play the piano to impress the Church choir girl.

Turns out work got in the way (I know, wagie wagie etc), and I kept postponing it. Also, I came to realize sometime about may, june, idk that I didn't actually like the choir girl, but a younger cunny. So I gave up on her. A few weeks later she had a boyfriend. I hope she's happy.

Anyway, I finally started piano last month, and now, after two months, I finally played "happy birthday". I'm thinking of buying my first keyboard (cheapest casio or yamaha) this month, waiting for black friday/11.11/assorted november discounts.

Dunno, just felt like bumping your thread with a random personal anecdote. Hopefully one day I'll be as cool as you guys so I can get all the girls.
>>
>>103045090
imo look for a midi controller although you might need a computer upgrade depending on what you're using now. you might have some luck finding a decent midi controller on the used market. then some pirated software like i hope vi labs modern d comes out soon it will btfo any casio or yamaha built in sounds.
>>
>>103045128
I was thinking the cheapest casio/yamaha with MIDI support. Which was the second cheapest I found anyway.

As for buying used, I don't know. I'm not knowledgable in this things and don't know what I should look for not to get scammed. And I doubt I'd have the time to go after sellers to see the product instead of just buying online without even looking at it. So I feel like new would be better in this case. But my teacher said she'd look into used from people she know, and I'm sure she would know.

I'll see what she turns up, and how the prices of the new things change the next few weeks.

As for computer, I have a bretty gud desktop which was overkill for my mindless browsing a few years ago, when I bought it. Dunno if it's good enough now. As for software I'd go with whatever you guys recommend for linux. But I'd look into it after I get the keyboard.
>>
>>103045128
Just did a quick search on that same shop (biggest shop in bumfuck nowhere, niggerland): there's a controller with just 2 octaves for the same price as the casio ct-s200. The only "controller" cheaper than that is for djs, with no keys but two spinny things. Yeah, prices are weird over here.

I only vaguely know of drum replacement/retriggering from formerly being a rawk person so may be dumb, but is there a vst that would help accommodate say, if i wanted to replace or sequence audio to the rhythm of one track?
Or a simpler and more common case for me: sequence a single kick one shot to align with just the first tracks chopped audio?

For breaks and other easily predictable stuff i've done quantize-aligned hot swaps but that was a jankier and much more specific version of what i'm in need of lol.
There's like very frequent autism chops of like 1-3 minutes per audio clip at random not always in time intervals so that's not a realistic solution at all.

Too tedious and time consuming to do manually, obviously.

Another nice feature from the video editing world: smart snap alignment of clips.

lmao you're butthurt that you can't hear it so any other plugin or whatever you do to your track might have similar issues for all you know. especially in /prod/ a lot of their tracks have appallingly low fidelity and they seem to be oblivious to it. it's a joke how normies like you with piss-poor problem solving skills etc and barely any perception of what goes into a top tier produced track think you have what it takes to make decent music (even normie music reviewers mention production quality these days).

i'm objectively correct, it's a fail on your end if you can't hear the veiled sound quality of arturia synths and omnisphere. bunch of coddled midwits, it's common sense that you need something out of the ordinary to make good music. even if you were talented, you'd need to put effort into developing your skills which you're clearly not doing, you've been doing this for 10+ years and gottten pretty much nowhere.

i couldn't easily find audio examples, i was curious to hear a comparison of the wrong vs correct speed. but this makes sense, these old jazz recordings sound unnatural even if it's just a quarter step or whatever. i would be curious if i could relate to it a bit more if i heard it at the correct speed.

the free tier of youtube music is fine by me as long as it was a proper upload from distrokid or whatever, not some obscure jazz stuff from a century ago. an anon in /iemg/ claims that the quality is obviously terrible but he hasn't proven anything with an ABX test. from what i've researched the modern codecs with decent bitrate are pretty much transparent to people with healthy hearing except some streaming services like deezer seem to fuck it up.

>>103062832
I usually just open it in Foobar2000 with the spectrograph set to linear and look at the high frequencies.
If I'm in doubt I'll load it into iZotope RX and do the same.
This isn't exactly fool-proof, as certain songs will just be super lowpassed by default, but usually you can see the artifacts somehow, on top of hearing them of course.

When possible, downloading different lossless versions of the same song and comparing them can be very helpful, since you're more likely to find at least one truly lossless version, which is going to make the lossy one/s stand out as obviously worse in the spectrograph.

>>103055929
their userbase has extremely low expectations. the most that faggots do with ableton is set up a midi in/out channel or an external input/output and that's it. anything beyond that confuses them. i used to like the software but my expectations increased considerably. if i need proper midi support, i'll use something else. even sequencers from the 1980s on atari st and amiga had better midi support.

this annoys me, it's supposed to be a good moog type of emulation, but the presets are cinematic type and uses hans zimmer's name for marketing reasons, it's kind of disillusioning to see these sequencer presets that don't require any skill to play and the very slow ambient pads that would fit in a movie sound track but would be tricky to use in a song, on the other hand i think the sounds used in BRAT are a bit too far on the other extreme of minimalism, i want a range of synth sounds that includes the darude sandstorm, the hampsterdance song and 2 UNLIMITED kind of sound design

I’ll mess with the drums and tweak thanks for feedback. Tips on making them sit in the mix better eq, compression, sidechain etc? Once I get them fixed do I need to mess with the synths at all or is it good. I need to make the background noise/ambient field recordings a little more noticeable. Anyways thanks for listening

>if you had tips on the mix/mixing process and how it sounds so far.
musically sounds ok, mix has a lot of high frequency noise (see picture) and clips at 0db throughout after intro. reduce the volumes of the guitar tracks a little to avoid clipping. as for the noise, you can try and filter it out but might end up sacrificing some of the guitar's high frequencies in the process. ideally you want a clean signal from guitar mic/amp/or whatever to what you used to record it.

SunVox is a music program that combines a powerful modular synthesizer and tracker.

The tracker presents melody and rhythm as letters and numbers arranged on vertical tracks: it's like a word processor or spreadsheet editor, but for music.

subconsciously, i doubt it. harmonic overtones are such a fundamental part of nature. we're not talking about audiophiles who use tube amps, this is on the production side of things. modern producers use this type of thing too. it's one of the most significant things that a lot of amateur music is lacking, so it's completely obvious to me that the song will never perform very well commercially. i think a lot of anons are simply clueless when popular music seems completely alien to them, it shouldn't take effort to appreciate at least half of the top tier songs if they were played to you properly on good speakers.

Is there a better market for repaired/modified synths than fucking reverb?

I finally got around to replacing the EL-foil dead backlight screen with a new LED screen, removing the step-up transformer, and doing an internal->external battery mod on my 1990 KORG Wavestation EX. I had to order like 50,000 resistors to get the few specific ohms I needed, and now I have enough left over to do these same repairs/mods on 5 more units. I see units with dead backlight screens for $450 on ebay, reverb, etc. so I'm also not sure what a good price would be with the new screen, transformer delete, battery mod etc. Any ideas?

>>103079457
probably not, etsy would be another general purpose place for a store. otherwise, gearslutz or some korg enthusiast forum
>>
>>103079491
thx bro, what about the pricing?

i'm hearing bad things about the Wavestate SE including opinions that the Wavestation performances that it has sound worse than the VST plugin version. granted the Wavestate SE hasn't officially launched in US I'm starting to see Japanese/European units here for ~$1499 or more for Platinum.

i know it's a niche synth, but all tuned up could it be worth more than ~$700?
>>
>>103079592
no idea on the pricing, idk what good state ones go for. also mods don't necessarily add value and might subtract value for a prospective buyer so maybe don't go through all that work when you could just refresh it to stock
>>
>>103079629
>mods don't necessarily add value and might subtract value for a prospective buyer so maybe don't go through all that work when you could just refresh it to stock
switching it from the EL-foil backlight screen to LED let's you do the step-up transformer delete (it's only used to power the backlight and it often goes bad and whines). the external battery mod i get it being an optional thing, but that one is practically free to do etc.

maybe there is a market for putting in new EL-foil backlight screen then replacing the old step-up... who knows
>>

Sorry, I was jusf hurt by your betrayal

It should just go without saying that amateurs on an amateur forum aren’t experts.
Pros or people who legitimately know what they’re talking about do show up and post but don’t often for reasons that are obvious if you just lurk, of course.

Right or wrong, it probably had nothing to do with whatever conversation the schizo was having.

you got btfo so hard by anons that know their shit and it's caused you to have a mental breakdown. nobody cares about your opinion. it's proven to be worthless because you don't know how to read. anons were talking about plugins made decades ago where there are no replacements. they are permanently stuck using vst2. stick to your topic of expertise: downloading child porn and getting owned by boomers. lmao.
>>
>>103080707
>Thanks. I have no idea what I’m doing mix wise.
no problem. you'll get there, anon. just takes practice. just got to remember to keep your levels of tracks within a range where when it's all combined they aren't all pushing it master to the extreme limit because you can't do anything else with a track at this stage. say if you were going to master this track as a final mix, there's no headroom to do anything.

Hey /dmp/, I'm back.

I made a few changes to my track, but it's mostly the same shit.

https://vocaroo.com/1g57IHptbxM4
https://files.catbox.moe/miw16i.wav

What else should I add? Is this already good enough for a short intro?
One of my favorite trance albums, 'Gatecrasher Anthems 1993-2009', features a song similar to this for it's opening track, before it moves on to more euphoric, late-90's trance. Perhaps we could do something similar to that.

Again, this is a bootleg remix of another non-trance song I'm working on, so don't expect much of this.

been almost 10 years since I played around with music production, I'm on linux now could be why.

>/g/ makes a 14th album
Theme: 90s Trance
Deadline: December 31st

cool beans thought I used to allays preferred uplifting trance because it always felt more magical to me.

Examples of which would be

https://youtu.be/TgNDm7ulSkY?feature=shared&t=3346

Much longer build up times I know, but...

https://youtu.be/Uo-yc7JA5Ic?feature=shared&t=741

hmmm i will be trying to go back to were i left off, i can maybe help one or two anons here, i know a fair bit about music production though obviously I'd be very rusty. Upon research (Like I use to) judging by the tracks i posted this would require the correct volume balances for more of those basey pads to sound in the spectrum. I was very young and kind of dum when i last did this, levels are important as mush as muh side chain which will really just mess shit up of you over do it.
>>
>>103084542
Are you panning your percussion? if not do so and if so move highhats to the right and open hats the left. Or it might be the other way rounf I forget, I think clap should got left, add some reverb or stereo or both, don't over do it.

Consider compression all percussion together using a send, and on the master add reverb with 100% dry and only 1% wet, and a fair bit of dampening, this will glue your mix together to sound more natural.

interesting dark melody, cringing voice but you kind of get use to it.
>>
>>103080728
>can't name one example besides obvious memes/easily replaceable VSTs
i accept your concession
>>
>>103085214
>Consider compression all percussion together using a send,
maybe don't, you will fuck it up unless you can get your levels right and EQ etc, each would need their own eq compression and reverb if applicable, do not reverb a kick drum unless you're trying something interesting. But at least the other percussion can go on a send and be compressed together.
>>
>>103083965
there's not really any noticeable latency with USB midi and 240hz display monitor, the digital filter response of my DAC is measured in microseconds
>>
for claps i like to make them my self, simple flat white noise into reverb and what not. a simple PSSST PSSST PSSST PSSST more effective than you can imagine. Can either envelope the pitch or volume i guess to get more snappyness, every anon wanting to make music should learn how to create percussion using oscillators with white noise.
>>
I lurked for a while after noticing the thread, the 90's trance part is what drew me in. I did a little 90's trance research for, i'm an 80's kids so i know this genre and was very fond of it.

Some of this might be so called hard trance which is still 90's

There are ones I can remember but sadly I can't remember what they are called.

Do you even know what the circle of fifths is or any fucking music theory or sound design what so ever?

Good luck you will need it.

yeah but why does 4chan have to be nasty all the time, i know their music is shit so i give tips of read like almost 20 years go on forums... Those tips work and made many successful producers of things like trance music... I am rusty but i never give bad advice unknowingly. Compressing percussion is a tectonic that can add a lot more crunchyiness in a please to the ear way.

Do you even know what compression does you dick head? or do you think its another effect chain to make your shit sound horrible? Its making the quite sounds louder overall thus making the percussion heard, do you know you can only fit so much into the sound spectrum? Which is why less is often better etc.

Do you know how they make good techno? They got their compression right and their levels right etc.

But just go on and keep making crap that everyone cringes at.

but do not give me shit i am not here to argue cunt, i do not care how depressed you are just leave me and others alone.

Well, I've taken >>103085214's advice, added some reverb, panned the hats around, but didn't use a lot off compresesion because I like the sound of it already.

if not one is reading that is fine by me.

i'm years old than most people i here i know that. It shows. You generation is retarded as fuck which is why you music really sucks.
>>
I guess i will get back to this hobby and i will show you a thing or two.

try that circle of fifths anons if you have a blank, try it with different vst and presets even lay down some chords. try 3 chord tricks also these are also fun for getting the initial melody.

A pure minor! do it. or try a Dorian mode
>>
uh huh... anyway...not reading...

i'm doing some break waveshape resampling for the groove/top center of a tune because skee mask; naturally you start throwing stuff and doing minor little things in front of that asymetric thing because it can drastically change the results, as everybody knows it's kinda...

airwindows guitar conditioner lol
metal? nah bro we're chilling out with this one.
great tone shift, thanks Chris.
:thumbs_up:

It seems DAW in linux is really kind of getting there. I remember I could try a few of them due to old hardware. some missing cpu instrustions.

Bitwig or what? would prefer free for now, would buy next month for sure. Or will ableton actually run with the register import tricks in wine? Or should i install windows to be sure i got the best? I kind of do not want to install windows.

which trip are you

sound like they control it so it effects the start, then the effect ends before sample is done. consider that also.

>>103086419
as in just a slight small grit on a sample, perhaps even a fade out. You can never know till you try to recreate.

it seems the losers took over the internet.

never mind.
>>
loser = sexless incel virgins btw.

your time is coming to an end, your have the creativity of a fucking pig, no one likes your music so if you want better out of it then listen, its only a comment you fucking daft ass, don't take it to heart...
>>
>>103086339
its also in a reverb, damped base, probably some compression and layed kicks, layed with some noise percussion imo, it could be many things desu. got it, so what ever man, but you should try many things there is more than one way.
>>
>>103086518
>>103086540
>>103086565
>>
>>103086700
and it just so happens i like that kind of sound and would wish to also find out what they did, so can't just glossy over it.
>>
>>103086719
if you weren't so annoying i'd have just shared the exact chain with you
>>
probably layered samples tbfh, there is some reverb but how much before the master? i could not tell you
>>
>>103086730
or maybe its just stereo effect, they are making the high end more expanded.
>>
i will say this one more time i do not care do not try to bully me at all, i am talking about time when we would simple listen and use our ears and watch the greats and we would learn this way ok not your way of well use a tool.

The sound i hear is some typical sound, its not new, the producer though is obviously exceptional to do this. and so damn well it has you and me guess as to what they did to produce that sound. So stop arguing and learn to research and study to find out how they done that and no just oh i know i got it. There are main ways to do that but unless you know you wont have the sonics of that exact sound.
>>
i could teach hardtechno because it was a silly thing i wanted to know, for example.
>>
>>103086837
>hardtechno
its schranz.exe

works on my machine.
>>
it could be a literal preset, even the beat could be baked into a preset, so the artist himself might not know much about what goes into it
>>
>>103086855
its fucking compression man and silly tricks with 2 kick drums, the kick drums have to work together. You place one 4/4 then you have the other land just before, one that hits first must not cancel the other aka levels not sidechain as in its there but you barely here it, delays kind of work but i'd avoid that unless you know what you are doing. yeah i will have to do it again to know.
>>
and no one ever tells you because people are elitist... No fucking change

but will show hardtecho soon
>>
I will submit a 90s trance version of Thick Of It
>>
i will get attacked i do not care.

most anons right do not appreciate sound spectrum, your drums and shit is not gonna fit in there with your pads and shit, because they take up the same spectrum in sound, so you either need EQ or lower one to allow the other to sound. Because that us how the spectrum actual works, if something is using the same frequency range and is higher than what you wish to hear you will not hear the other due to it being on the same frequency range.

you also need to consider wave cancellation, take 1 wave form, then create one which is equal, then invert one wave form and pas into the same channel you will hear nothing this is called wave cancellation.
>>
>>103087036
in the case of eave cancellation it matters not if you lower it, it will still cancel, in my thinking i will assume it will lower the volume, but i be wrong it might infact cancel it all out. So consider that if you have problems, there is nothing more to ad to cancellation is well know.

you want to make fucking techno don't you? :-)
>>
we will bounce oscillators around, we will align kick drums, we will compress all to death, we then raise the gain.
