Sorry, I'm new to this, where do I find the beautiful instruments they used in late 90s games? I really like the choir in this at 0:30. https://youtu.be/Jf53sBB39kc
Finished the beat, any thoughts on the mix (I suck as mixing and mastering).

>>123057054Lots of hardware synthesizers have a chorus effect similar to that such at the Roland Jupiter-8. You can probably find similar by searching "hardware synthesizer choir sample" or even "Roland Jupiter 8 choor sample." Most synthesizers worth a salt will have something that sound pretty much exactly like that.The other dominant instrument is a pam flute, again, probably from the very same sythesizer.
>>123057308*Choir effect
>>123057308https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PVE4RxV--zc&ab_channel=synthartist69^not exactly it but you get what I meanhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SYsd-mHRNJE&ab_channel=RalphMaten^this is a lot closer to what you're thinking of, but is a Casio CT-S1000VA lot of video game music, especially in the 90's, made heavy use of these pre-built in synthesizer effects.
>>123057054Probably from one of the popular ROMplers of the time like the Roland Sound Canvas series or it could have been from a sampler CD (less likely).I would search the internet; usually good video game soundtracks have a cult following and people track down the exact instrument/sample used.Good luck, friend.>>123057308Shut the fuck up, Dubbi. You always say shit that's way off.
>>123057054i'm 99% sure that pan flute is from the Roland JV-1080, here's the VST playing it: https://vocaroo.com/1kJwGK5M9xzuchoirs sound like they could be a modified preset too, though iirc a lot of those sounds were ported to the Sound Canvas modules of the time too (the pan flute included) and given that the JV-1080 generally sounds "nicer" I'm leaning towards the Sound Canvasit's possible it could've been a sample CD too, but my bet is on Sound Canvas or some other Roland module given that the pan flute sounds virtually identical>>123057308>jupiter-8>choir sounds

>>123057636>>123057939This. Has happened to me too. Keep working and don't look back. Also, find a method where you can recover and edit different stages of the process.
>gravedigging old songs Song A Day philosophy aims to mitigate most of this:Excuse the cringe manosphere self improvement hussle get the girl terminology but this is a good example of where an “abundance mindset” would be beneficial-Is that song *actually* a potential banger or are you just convinced it’s the best you can do? Are you in a slump and looking to scrape the bottom of your barrel?Is it a GOOD song or is it just okay? Why settle? Is it just a sentimental thing and if so why are you hung up on *this one*?Kill your darlings. Nothing is sacred.One of the benefits of having a constant output and settling on slow consistent improvement should be realigning your mindset so you think of songs as things you can just constantly be making and no one is special enough to be hung up on without good reason.That’s not to say that you should *never* look back because of the promise of something better on the horizon, but you should aim to be more objective about what deserves your attention and elaboration unswayed by judgement clouded by creative desperation.

help, why does my pianoteq ui suddenly look like this? I didn't change anything and I don't seem to be able to return to the normal ui...
>>123059982no drone. chords played by air pads (generic rompler name). a drone is a single note, think about a bagpipe, EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. it just keeps going. these are changing in pitch, it is not the same note therefore no drone. i have limited expierence with being inside windy chimneys but it sounds like you might like plate reverbs.

yesterday I had a project "write and record a post-punk song in a day" with or without live drums, depending on if I felt like mic'ing the kit after tracking everything else all day.for some fuckhead reason decided to monitor using these decent bookshelf speakers my computer was plugged into. Wrote and recorded all the melodies with a bass guitar, arranged the song, decide I'm gonna lean a little poppier than straight up indie post-punk, and should quantize my bass notes a little tighter, put on headphones after two hours of recording- every single track has "bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz" from shitty electrical grounding in my house and the speakers I was "monitoring" on. Get frustrated and delete entire project and go grocery shopping like I was supposed to. Now my real band has a show this week and doesn't let up for two months, which means I'll be embroiled in dbeat and crust 24/7 with no time to chill and make some dangermousey television type shit.to keep it /prod/ - I recorded a black metal band a few weeks ago and used a 57 with an nt-1 on the bass amp and the nt-1 sounded better on pretty much everything- big muff, clean, pick, or fingers.

>>123062735fuck
>>123062709uh... yeah
>>123057308Right, these broke nerds had Jupiters at their disposal. I also think you're confusing Jupiter with the Juno. Most of these tracks were made using sample CDs.

>>123063557Probably, I realized after I posted that the Jupiter models were from the late 70's and early 80's. I'm not too familiar with synthesizers because a lot of popular or historically ones are prohibitively expensive. And like one the Anons said if you really want to know there are bound to be nerds that have already precisely located where the sound came from.>>123063803I still feel the same as when I last heard this, would definitely vibe to this driving around at night.Is the track in a finished form? If so>>123043349
>>123064086ah thank you anon!i mean it's more or less finished yeahi'm kinda sitting on a couple songs as i wanted to release something as my first track on something other than soundcloudbut alas
Now that I've made a few remakes, I've found that my sound selection has been severely lacking, my sounds sound cheap compared to the tracks I remake, what do I do? I usually just use presets from vsts like Purity, ElectraX and Xpand.
Anyone know if know if mixcraft automatically transposes instrument voices played on a keyboard in MIDI (like a sax or woodwind)?
Has anyone had any success reaching out to artists on Instagram to share your music? I just made an Instagram account to post my beats / music to send to artists / rappers on the off chance they will open my message and listen.I have been making music for the past 10 years (with Abelton) and think I am actually as good as the other producers they work with but I don't know anyone in the scene and have no followers.
>>123064332>synths are named after popular stripper names>it sounds cheapi lole. learn synthesis instead of using presets. listen to different synths try to understand them , their characteristics, why they are used, for what they are used. start with monophonic bass synths. look up some stuff on youtube and then create a basic synth for bass on your own. the knobs want to be turned.
>>123064332It depends entirely on what you're remaking. Your question is too vague.
>>123064375Like any DAW with MIDI, I'd figure that it will play the notes that you record (or click) into it, unless it has either a destructive transpose that moves the notes within the clip, or an interactive non-destructive transpose panel that modifies the notes on the way out of the MIDI clip.What you're asking is will the DAW move or change these notes automatically, depending on the instrument type chosen, yeah?I don't think it will and I haven't seen that happen in any DAWs I use - MIDI recorded or clicked into a clip stays that way unless the user tells it to change.But... the VST instruments themselves will many times play notes in lower or higher octaves than others when sent the same MIDI, especially in the realm you mentioned for things like orchestral or other acoustic instruments. This happens outside of the MIDI clip, it's in the instrument's programming itself, so a DAW that then compounded that by thinking it will also automatically transpose notes based upon, what, the instrument name or preset name perhaps, I think that would annoy users more than help.

>>123065012first 15 second are largely human. bass+vox+guitar synth is human.
>>123064797Okay, I guess then the question is if the instrument voice itself is accommodating, right? So I’m using an alto sax voice MIDI, and I hit the C key on my keyboard, it’s actually playing a C, and not an E flat. In typing this now I’m realizing it may be a silly question - one would assume this would be the case, but I wasn’t sure. I suppose it would be silly for a DAW to assume the user is going to know the keys for all the various instruments.
>>123064864this only has a superficial resemblance to music
>>123065304Kek
>>123065296>So I’m using an alto sax voice MIDI, and I hit the C key on my keyboard, it’s actually playing a C, and not an E flat.It's maybe not as silly a question as you think, cos I'm willing to bet it has occurred to loads of developers of these instruments too. They'll have asked themselves "do we account for the people who know this stuff, or do we just develop an instrument that sounds right at the note that was input?"For the sake of sales, reviews and expecting less need for tech support requests from inexperienced users, they'd have gone with the latter, but there could be outliers there where a dev has stuck to their guns.What you might have to ask is users of scoring DAWs like MuseScore or Sibelius, will they automatically adapt to instruments? That might well be a feature in there, but for your standard DAW the MIDI you put in is the same as the MIDI it spits out, unless you manually transpose or specify the use of some sort of modifier function, like the transpose panel in Cubase I alluded to in my first post.

>>123065629i like the theme of track nr 4, the melody. i dont like the rest that happens in track nr.4track nr 3. is interesting aswell, but it is too high, too scratchy, scrawny, too shrill. just not the sweetspot.maybe tune down the whole track, or slow the bpm. sometimes tracks work nicely in between keys, it just enhances them in a unique way. with track nr1. the vox just ruins the vibe for me.

>>123066596I wish I didn't start so late in my 20s. It's pretty hard trying to convince myself some days that I'm making progress. It's hard to focus on learning and instrument and production.

It was my "thing". Guess I had some halfhearted dream about becoming a successful artist, never went to far in that direction.>Later got more serious about and went into media composition/production. Even made some money off that, but got burnt out by all the all-nighters and producers/directors wanting 10 different versions of the same cue. The amount of work/pay ratio wasnt adding up. And frankly, I just wasnt good enough so I stopped.>Years later, I'm still making music though I've returned to silly untz untz music. Probably have 50 songs that has never seen the light of day. Even more half baked beats.

you must learn music theory in a historical approach, start with the greeks. way easier to understand it then because you have context. you cant use a 2024 description of things to explain what they did when they did something 700 years ago. you can but then you just put things in the head of the autor didnt even consider or knew about, if you want to recreate or understand THEIR process you have to get a understanding of THEIR thinking. music theory is there to explain fundamental ideas and concepts to a large amount of people in a quick time, a 4 week course so you have the basics down and get a rudimentary understanding.i think the worst thing is saying: look this sounds sad "plays something minor it sounds sad" and there is zero rigor in that because you just anchored the listener before you played, when someone does that i want to throw tomatoes.
>>123069558no only imaginary ones. are they ready when you come to collect should be your main question. >>123070848the bass, i want to attack the bass what the fuck is he doing. protect piano. >>123070894THE FLANGER IS COMING TO GET ME NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I KNEW IT >>123074280dollars, uh oh, dolllars.

>>123073147I usually figure these are shitposts and either people are playing along when they reply with anything positive, samefagging or it's a genuine retard that tries too hard and would try to give 'contructive criticism' to someone holding one note for 10minutes.>duurrr i listened to it all. it's got a lot of potential i really like the creative choice of sustaining one note for 10mins. hurrr it's great that you picked a note that you like to play, but how about including more to mix things up a bit?
>>123074642not it is called being a producer. you either have material or someone comes to you and you produce. you make it better, try to understand it etc. if your understanding is >shizo beat>zoomer beat>boomer beat then you might not have the right ears to do it.
thoughts on this instrumental so far? I'm gonna put a vocal on it https://vocaroo.com/1iunVZQUF2mU
>>123074883the open octacve parallels from 00:58 onwards sound a bit off, otherwise it sounds okay. The sound selection itself is a bit bland and at the same time harsh on the ears. It's not really sounding good, it just sounds okay.But good effort anyway, keep going.
>>123074883Yes I realise the snares a bit too harsh just picked that up on headphones. Apart from that though
>>123075202Thanks for the feedback, it’s just a rough early version
>>123070006don't link it but post a vocaroo at least
>>123074527pretty chill
>>123074642never talk to me or my drone again.
>>123075242just got absolutely senttttt to 2019 dude damnsynthwave, dark trap, dark ambient, ambient-ambient...waow....https://vocaroo.com/1iz7L4wz0Wsv
>>123075203Everything is a little harsh. As you introduce more elements it becomes really messy. Everything sounds like one flat mess with no cohesion, played off rhythm a bit too much and just unpleasant to listen to. Vocals on tops of this as is would be pointless. Also as anon said here >>123075202, that twinkly synth seems to just lose traction and die sadly for no reason. Maybe clean it up a bit and post again with the vocal idea, but do some basic mixing so it doesn't sound so chaotic.
>>123075489that actually sound pretty clean. How much of the sounds did you do yourself? I guess you didn't sing the vocals yourself, right?
>>123075567ThanksNot the vocals of course, but the rest are all my sounds except the obvious coin sample and a few of the drum one shots iirc lol

>>123074132He's banned from /g/, we're stuck with him for at least another 48 hours. :(
>>123075489Very cool composition Anon. Not really what I would normally listen to but like the other Anon said this sounds nice and crisp and well produced. I loved the way you handled the end of each bar with bass booms and drum hits, with enough variance to keep it interesting. Since you didn't do the vocals (and if you're the same Anon that talked avout collaborating) how'd you get them? Care to share more? I'd like to hear more if your comfy with sharing.
>>123075982Not sure about that snare, Anon. It was going hard giving a dark techno/trancey vibe making me eager to hear where the journey is going, but as soon as the snare kicked it it became house-like and killed the momentum and billed up, and in my opinion, sounds out of place given the style the track was going before the snare kicked in. If you're keen on keeping the snare where it is I would consider replacing it with something more minimal, robotic and synthetic sounding.
>https://reverb.com/item/52792791-ik-multimedia-irig-keys-pro-full-sized-midi-keyboard-controllerPrice looks good. Would this be an alright midi controller?
>>123076502*Kicked in, build upMy bad, just woke up and had a brain fart lol
>>123076431lol thanks. It's a remix of 100 gecs hand crushed by a mallet.They dropped stems for everybody to use a little while after their first album came out.>if you're the same Anon that talked avout collaboratingThe last time I recall asking anybody to collab was a couple weeks or so ago was that dude who was posting like disney-ish sound-tracky stuff with more colour and electronic stuff tacked on.Maybe I did though? My brain is fried and I haven't been going through the threads consistently latelylast thread links because lol https://vocaroo.com/17RzOHf2qo9qhttps://vocaroo.com/1f5csSpMSpHlI post drafts here like.... not every day anymore, but most days.They're easy to pick out apparentlyyyy
>>123076511if that's the best deal you can find on reverb you need to unfuck yourself
>>123076511Never heard of IK as a brand, and you can find way better controllers with more features from brands like Akai, Nectar and M-Audio for around the same price. And if you're willing to spend just a little more Roland and Korg have good controllers too.
>>123076583I have done almost zero looking I was just curious. I don't know much about keyboards in general (guitar and bass player). Is that model any good or is there something else I should be looking for?
>>123076643Okay sweet. I'll do some more digging through those brands.
>>123076245That's not me you dumbass, I'm not the (a?) shitposter/schizo, I'm the guy who's trying to get people to ignore his thread-ruining posts, hence my banned post telling people to do that, which is apparently not allowed.
Which kind of EDM would you make for your very first release on streamables?>deep house>progressive house>tech house>drum and bass
>>123076684I know, I was talking about the schizo youtube "audiophile" poster who was banned from /g/. I'm pretty sure I quoted the right Anon to reply about it but if not oopsie daisy.
>>123076720I'm the guy who got banned (assuming you're referring to >>123062204). I'm not the guy you're thinking.
>>123076744Ah, okay yeah i'm a dumbass lol.
>>123076763It's alright. We're all anonymous, it's easy to mistake two posters in cases like this
>>123076644yes alot. if want to learn piano you need more keys, also better if you use a rompler because you have more notes to play and see where the preset plays nicely. there is USB Midi and DIN midi. Aftertouch is also good to have if you decide you want to use aftertouch in your playing. (look it up)you want something that integrates well within your DAW of choice, or something that has everything you need if you want to be DAWless and just jam around. consider the size of the keys aswell, tiny keybeds just suck. knobs and faders are always a plus. most of their pads suck. the alesis v line has the nicest keybed out of all the things i have played. the Akai MPK Mini has shitty small keys, tested a small keystation one aswelll (i cant remember exactly), same thing, small shitty keys.i bought a alesis v25 and then one with more keys, the cheap thomann stand for 30€ and now it is fun, consider where you will place aswell!for controlling other synths the arturia keystep (pro) is goated.
>>123076920Awesome thanks anon. I can actually piano pretty well and had formal training back in college. The world of keyboards and digital music is new to me so it's a bit of a learning curve. I'll check out that Alesis v25 for now.
>>123076573>https://vocaroo.com/1f5csSpMSpHlDeftones called... they said 'good job glhf peace! p.s. keep the riffs'
>>123077028as a fellow piano player: I have the Roland A-49 for a while now, and I like it a lot.I have seen many MIDI keyboards and most of them suck if you're trying to play expressive piano parts.I'm not a fan of semi-weighed keys, I think they are the worst of both worlds.If you can't get fully weighed keys, I'd go for a simple and honest synth keyboard, like that Roland one I've got.
>>123077264for me it's the A-88 and it's pretty comfy
>>123059208not true, Sia only got big in her 30s. your mentality is limiting your options for success
>>123077390Wasn't she already successful in the industry working for other people by the time she started her own thing?
>>123077390her career has declined sharply over the last 10 yearskaty perry's career is basically over at 39
she's "only" 50, can't hit the notes, they've done some work like the collab with nicki minaj and ice spice for the barbie movie but nothing huge like in their prime, their last album released in 2011 got mixed reviewshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bGcwlk5O9XA
>>123076502what kind of snare are we talking about here anon, what is in your mind, tell me! it is my first techno track.
>>123077669I not even sure it needs a snare desu, Anon, it sounded just fine without one. If I were you I would focus more on developing the mood of the track with layers of pads, synths and dark atmospheric textures.
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SJcgOWsDwi4&t=133s>please see timestampHow the fuck do I get Hatsune Miku to sound like that?The lyrics are apparently "so burn my, burn my heart". Not that I can tell. But the "heart" in particular is what I mean. It is impossible. I can't get anything even remotely close.
>use audimee>upload vocal>vocal is now sang by an ai>pitch it up>can't get legaly brought down by original vocalistIt's that easy
>>123077902except composition and lyrics. Just transposing a melody line doesnt make it legal to use without clearance.
>>123077908Read my post again, it's an ai voice that's singing.The lyrics don't matter, the composition is different the second another voice is singing the same text.
>>123077753i have no idea but how do i get vocals to sound like black magic ss, such a weird effect on everything i dont understand it at all. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A-OVAdjP5Yc&t=483s
>>123077927What you end up with is essentially just a cover.If you want to release it it needs to be licensed.
>>123077951Then chop the vocal up, put some extreme effects on it.
>>123077956You can already do these things on the real vocal to avoid getting caught without the AI.
>>123077927>The lyrics don't matteryes it does>the composition is differentno it isnttrust me, I've read alot of fucking court documents on copyrights and you're just in the wrong. Do yourself a favor and never release a track using this method, if you ever get a hit and the labels catch on, you're going to spend years in and out of courts and most likely to pay a fortune in damages.Smarter people than you have been fucked over by this.
>>123077974AI gives you an extra Layer of protection.
>>123077980nta, how is someone supposed to release a song with vocals if seemingly every big label will sue you into oblivion?
>>123077985At the cost of lowering the quality of the vocal and tainting it with artifacts that will likely become even more apparent when you apply heavy effects on it.I'm not against AI or this particular use of it, but it's a tool with pros and cons, and as of now the cons make it pretty unsuitable for doing what you suggest.
>>123077994?????????
>>123077994you use royalty free vocals from places like splice or hire a vocalist
>>123077994You write original lyrics, you compose an original melody, you compose and original song and you hire or collaborate with a singer who can sing it.What did you think people did? Just sampled other peoples songs, stole the accapella and hoped nobody would notice? Artists (labels) spend tens of thousands on sample clearance and the rights to make covers and remixes. Usually money upfront and percentages of the royalties to the original composer/writer/copyright holder. Thats how it works.
>>123077994>sing it yourself>apply pitch correction>change your voice into a girl with AI
>>123077994fucking hell you read some shit in these threads

>>123078362>>123078069>>123078027>>123078026>>123078024>>123078017Was a valid question you Morons, if everyone can sue you in an instant just because "it sounds the same" you should just not use Vocals in your Track. Period.
>>123078402make your own damn song, the chance is slim to none that it will be close enough to an existing song to sue
>>123078402Why did you capitalize the word morons?
>>123078428That implies a Vocal anon
>>123078402Getting sued by someone who thinks you plagiarized the IP they own applies to pretty much anything you do, not just vocals. Any music you release can have a similar melody or even "vibe" (there's actually precedent for this).The chances of someone thinking that your original vocal with original lyrics sounds similar enough to their vocal to warrant a lawsuit, are far slimmer than the same thing happening because of any other element of your song.
>>123078480That is insane, there's only a finite amount of grooves or "vibe" you can make
>>123078541Skill issue.
>>123078558Retard
>>123078570Bother you're not in any position to question the intelligence of other people.
>>123078590"Brother", answering with "skill issue" is not getting anything from me beside a retard.

>>123079292yes too much. the bellthing just clashes with the drums, nothing gets through anymore. i would just delete elements until it feels right at this point. "A designer knows he has achieved perfection not when there is nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to take away."

What would I need to change to use it? I never know how cut up it really needs to be, or if some bands are just different about it
>>123080857Hey man you're the artist, keep the snares if they're working for you, it's just starting to sound more house and less techno.

is there a OP text about recommended product?Specifically looking for a MIDI keyboard, 3 octaves minimum.
>>123081910what price point, what features? the only differences in 3 octaves sizes will be buttons and stuff. You want rotary encoders or potentiometers or faders? Drumpads on a row or a grid?
>>123082019just something to enter note values into a notation software (musescore). basically I don't need any pads and knobs. I'm looking for something cheap with a small form factor (depth) so I can have it in front of my (typing) keyboard without taking all the space of my desk. So nothing behind the keys that would add extra depth.
>>123082248check out the m-audio keystation lineup

>>123082865>https://vocaroo.com/19ZVZgDHp6fqthis is not soulful house. its like not even house. you forgot the clap on 2 and 4..... its just techno.the noise riser in the start. its shit. its just white noise and doesnt do anything. further the impact that comes afterwards is far too muddy and obscures the bassline a bit to much at the initial 'drop'.percussion is so boring. need more than just a open hihat. the hat that is there is good, but it needs some hat friends.the piano and whistley thing are good. vocals are ok.squealy synth i like. maybe tone down the sidechain on it a bit.whole thing probably needs a good bit more movement. like change up the toms a bit here or there. its pretty clear that the whole track rn consists of the same ~8 bar loops that are just added or taken away>>123076698what kind of fucking question is this. just make the kind of music that you resonate with the most. why are you thinking about your first release when you dont even know what kind of music you want to make. are you retarded? are you trying to just make music for the soul purpose of releasing it and generating money/fame (which you absolutely will not)? noone wants more soulless bullshit cookie cutter music in the world so find a real reason to make music if thats the case>>123076573#1tone down whatever spectral plugin you have. or dont. i personally hate that kind of sound. i would get rid of the spectral effect entirely and replace it with more typical distortion if i were you.pretty cool track though. needs way more sub. quite like the pad you have in the back. it could honestly be brought into focus a bit more.#2other anon said it but yeah this is deftones. its cool i like it :) gets a bit too mushy and muddy after 45 seconds. the amount of compression works when the lead guitar is really punching through in the first half but when that guitar isnt there you gotta declutter the mix so everything else actually pops.
>>123075982needs some reverb on all of the drums. having the snare in itself is fine but i think the snare should be deeper prolly, more like a kick accent then a snare.the heavily filtered synth at the start and end, its way over the top. the resonance on whatever filter ur using for that should be turned down like half.>>123074527>https://vocaroo.com/1ichWFCJIoTUkick is almost silent. is there even a kick? it needs more kick for sure.hat/snare pattern near the end is nice.melody at 0:46 is not!everything here needs alot more work if im being honest but its not an awful track. i can see the vision :)>>123073575dont see any reason for this to have *this* much bitcrush. its ashame because the underlying track seems pretty interesting. like the hats are just absolutely fucked beyond recognition.the acid synth, i think dropping it down an octave could be good. maybe keep it where its at and drop it that octave somepoint in the track to add something interesting.fan of the chord changes and the pad in the back. like i said just wish i could actually hear.>>123073000this is really good. you need to low cut your basses and put a proper sub. and if you already are doing that... turn it up i guess. you should come up with something more interesting than 16th/8th note cutouts at the end. same idea with a more of a broken rhythm could be greati love lowpassed percussion before the drop. the buildup clap needs more character though.>>123070894i feel like you listen to arcathe flashcore percussion seems to have nothing to do with what is being played by the piano. kind of just seems like 2 songs going on. would rather listen to either half on their own.thinking about the two on their own, its pretty cool. the piano seems pretty quantized to me. which doesn't really fit with the sound it has.my songhttps://vocaroo.com/16dudZCRq1GM>techno>hypnoticits very long but if someone wants to listen to the whole thing id really appreciate it :)

>>123084267sing out more of your melodies. right now there is so much clashing around the highs, if a female choir which could sing those notes had to sing it, absolute MADNESS. the topline has to be clean, just like the female opera singer that sings has to be clean. her presentation of beauty is what matters, not that 4 background singers try to steal the show. >>123084180thanks for your feedback. i think your track could improve its hypnotic thing with psytrance elements like panning things in the field a little bit more. right now it feels more meditative than hypnotic, i am missing the suggestions. if you just put the hypnotic there as rather random tag then ignore that input. when i think about a genre that nails the hypnotic elements i think of the psytrance because it constantly suggests something that isnt there. and suggestion is the basis of all hypnosis.
>>123084085listen to quadrillion presets until you find the best one.
>>123084085all the energy gets sapped after the intro. It's like the speakers burst as soon as everything kicks in and it all gets muffled and sounds far away. I would also say replace that main synth for the melody, it doesn't really fit well.

>>123081910>3 octaves minimum.I really don't see the point of 3/4 octave keyboards.If you don't care about octaves you get a 25 key and slide it around like a madman. If you care about octaves you get an 88 key, if you don't have the space you get a 73 key. 49 key is too small for anything sensible and too bulky for someone trying to fit music production into a shoebox.

The only downside is that pitch bend only has 4-bits of resolution (???), so you can hear stepping when you bend an octave. In conclusion, it has great synth-action keys, and I won't be replacing it until it breaks.
>>123088583i recently discovered the thing with the low resolution on the pitch wheel, too. It seems to change with whatever plugin I use, though, at least that's the impression I got.But I like that combined joystick a lot, I wonder why not all manufactures solve it like that.That unit that controls values with movement of your hand is a dumb gimmick in my opinion, did you ever use that musically?Another thing that is really weird: I have to unplug and plug it every time I start ableton, and in order to do that you have to press 3 specific buttons while plugging it in. The first time I tried it I thought it was broken, and it took a few minutes of googling to find out what I had to do. That's really strange and if you didn't have internet you wouldn't ever figure out what to do.
>>123088561I didn't say stop doing everything I said don't force yourself to make a song when your brain isn't up to it. You should go for a walk or go to the gym. Your brain won't wake up until your body is awake. Posting here will get you no where
>>123088635https://youtu.be/nSYgy7vTues?t=204 at the last minute pianoman gives a good demo of what it can do. he says he prefers the joystick version compared to the wheel thingy.
https://youtu.be/ogCih4OavoYWhat is this chord progression called? I hear it all the time in music. I wanna use it too. The DA da da dadaum dadadum.
>>123088818i think you mean the rhythm not the progression. dunno, mb tresilio, more often than not it is that. it lurks everywhere. around that corner, probably a tresilio pattern is hiding there.
what if sounds like in my head lolhttps://vocaroo.com/1fqZBuFVAhn7
>>123088958How can I learn more about rhythms as a producer?

>>123089100FUUUUCCKKKKK
>>123086691there aren't many eurobeat/eurobrass presets. i had to make this myself.>>123087547i'm planning on making the main square synth vocals or vocaloid.
I've been using 1 different VST every day for all my sounds. It's probably the most obvious basic fucking thing ever. I'm not sure why i didn't do this before but it makes combining sounds much easier
>>123083423You are an Asshole in disguise fuck off.
>always upload to sc>set myself the goal to upload my very first song on spotify this yearhow...do i make the jump?
>>123089536>an Asshole in disguise>took the time to leave more detailed and thoughtful feedback than just about anybody else in the thread, is generally positive and chill, has good takes and cool musicNTA but maybe you are the asshole. Everybody has the right to be here (unless you're a dirty shill). Especially if you are going to be based and listen/feedback other people's stuff. How about you fuck off or post a voca
I CRANKED THE FUCKING LIMITER ON THE MASTER TO +8DB AND IT'S STILL NOT LOUD ENOUGHHOOOOOLYYYYYYYYYY FUCK
>>123089667my nigga your saturation?
>>123089678
>>123089667Obviously that's because limiters limit things, anon. You have to use a maximizer if you want to maximize things.
>>123089699BRO
>>123089604Get a song you think is good, find a distributor online like distrokid, send them your song, wait for it to be uploaded. I've heard bad things about distrokid though. Especially for people with no listeners like us the service you get well be below average. Unless you get some type of buzz
>>123089714i signed up to amuseman i am really anxious to upload any tracki'm 100% certain it's not up to snuff but....i gotta take the first step somehow i guess
>>123089667raise the output on a compressor, lol

>>123089536No, you fuck off, you pathetic worm. We need more anons like that who are willing to give honest feedback, even if it's harsh. If you want to be hugboxed, reddit is more your speed.
>>123089977Look up tweets that include the name. Also I know a guy with 50k listeners that said DK is ass. One artist I follow waited a long time for them to upload her project to streaming. Even though she had a rollout and the shit was submitted for a long time
>>123090326That's like checking any forum for customer service and seeing that everything is a complaint m8.Nobody is going out of their way to tweet about how great distrokid is.
>made a clip today>rendered it and planned on posting it before going to the gym>check thread now>i forgot to post itFUUUCCCKK>>123090384Majority of the people on DK are artists that don't have a big following. Indie artists I follow have had their shit delayed because distrokid doesn't respond to their emails. Even the nigga I know in real life had issues with them. Whatever you see people complain about on whatever website or forum you check, will end being the same shit that trips you up when it's time for a release.
What's the difference between plugin, VST, VSTi, VST3, AU and CLAP?
>>123090541The terms plugin, VST, VSTi, VST3, AU, and CLAP all refer to different types of audio software used in digital audio workstations (DAWs) for music production and sound design. Here's a breakdown of each term: Plugin: A general term for software components that add specific features to an existing computer program. In the context of audio, plugins can be effects (like reverb or compression) or instruments (like synthesizers or samplers). VST (Virtual Studio Technology): A widely used plugin format developed by Steinberg. VST plugins can be either effects or instruments and are compatible with many DAWs. VSTs come with the extension .dll on Windows and .vst on Mac. VSTi (Virtual Studio Technology Instrument): A subset of VST plugins specifically for virtual instruments, such as synthesizers and samplers. They generate sound rather than processing it. VST3: The latest version of the VST standard, also developed by Steinberg. VST3 introduces several improvements over VST2, including better performance, new features, and more efficient processing. VST3 plugins use the .vst3 extension. AU (Audio Units): A plugin format developed by Apple for macOS and iOS. AU plugins are similar to VSTs but are designed to integrate more closely with Apple's Core Audio system. They are primarily used in DAWs like Logic Pro and GarageBand. CLAP (CLever Audio Plugin): A newer, open standard for audio plugins. CLAP aims to provide a more flexible and open alternative to existing formats like VST and AU. It is designed to work across different operating systems and DAWs, with features like advanced MIDI handling and more efficient processing.
>>123090551chat gpt
>>123090558Yeah I typed your question in there because that's what you should've done
>>123088561>Huh?? I have SO much to respond to this like i'm literally the typing version of tongue tied rn that is such terrible advice for anybody who actually wants to be good.yeah it's normal for other types of artists like drawfags to want to get paid for their work and their expenses. musicfags say it's just a hobby as a cope for not being good
>>123090872No I gave him the right advice. If you can't even get yourself out of bed to make a song, do something else. Nothing good ever comes from forcing it
>>123090872uh, sure...It just drives me crazy when people say anything like "just do it when you feel like it :)" or anything invalidating any sort of effort because you're not currently being paid as if that's an excuse to just not try or something.Like imagine if /fit/ was full of "don't go to the gym if you're feeling kind of meh today dude don't worry about it :p" like dude what
>>123090942>don't go to the gym if you're not feeling itYes that's how lifting works. I've been lifting for 10 years and there are days when it's better to not go if you aren't feeling it. You're not going to get better on a day when you're forcing yourself to make music or whatever hobby you have. There are other ways to "work on music" without making music. Listening to music and trying to memorize it so you can copy is a way to work.
>>123091051I mean there are obviously exceptions, but if people just didn't get up and work on their passions when they weren't feeling 100% they'd never get shit done
>>123091125I think finding the balance of days off and work days is very important. If you're pushing yourself that is good but it can also be self destructive. Say there's a day when you're not 100% and you open your DAW and end the day without a project saved or something rendered. The last thought a person would have in that situation is, "I wasted my time today." Of course that's bound to happen to everyone. I think the thoughts you end the day with are going to have the biggest impact on tomorrow. So trying your best to end on a positive note is what I try to do.
>>123091375Is this a normal, healthy thought process?I am confused
>>123088093I already have a 88key Casio somewhere else in my room. I just want something to have on my desk where I can work on two voices without changing the octave 95% of the time. With my current 25key this is more like 50% of the time.
>>123091407Since it's my thought process I'm going to say yes but I'm not an expert. I think working on your passions daily is important. However there's no progress during the time I work, it's harder the next day.

>>123088499How are you going to ever get to the point where you're good enough to do it professionally if you're not putting in the hours?Grinding has always been an integral part of being a professional musician (or a professional of anything that requires skills).Sure, working when you don't feel like it isn't optimal, but you can still make "gains" if you work on things that don't really require being in the right headspace.Not to mention how oftentimes forcing yourself to start actually ends up putting you in the right headspace anyway.>>123091051I pretty much always feel like shit and almost never feel like working out, but I do it anyway and even if it's not optimal it's still infinitely better than wasting the whole day.If Big Ramy can work out during Ramadan and still win Mr. Olympia, I think you can avoid skipping the day when you don't feel like it.
I don't care if nobody else in the whole world ever hears my music again for as long as I live so long as yuiposter heard it at least just once and liked it thats all I need :3
