no you just adjust your faders accordingly so the input doesnt clip
With 24 bit digital recording, the noisefloor is so low that you should never hit red, you shouldnt even be in the yellows. No need, back in the analoge tape days it made sense to have a rather high input on recording to not stack noisefloors, but these days you can record with 20 db overhead and it not being an issue.

Ahh, the pad/synth noise reminds me of a Daedelus track whose name I don't know and I can't find it again. Someone uploaded it to YouTube years ago (decade+) under the name Denouement, but that's a different track, and it has since been taken down. Fcukk. I'm going to have to listen to his entire discography again to be satisfied.
Mm. Pretty sure Alfred used a Microkorg for his sound. Is yours Massive?

>>124346827
>Massive
nah, I bounced out like 20 seconds of messing with the Giant in Kontakt (there's an alt version that lets you break down the piano a bit, plus all the under the hood stuff) through some airwindows reverb and then threw that in granulator.
It's just a re-hashed version of what I posted for the Telefon Tel Aviv obsessed anon earlier lol

I find it funny that whenever someone IRL or somewhere else online wants to hear my songs they usually love them, yet /prod/ mostly hates. I have had quite a few well regarded producers like my stuff yet here everyone criticises negatively. Are y'all just full of hate?

in that case, use dynamic mics. It's going to sound like shit anyway so fidelity wont be a priority, you'll probably just blow out any condensor mics. But again, you just adjust the input level on your daw, I donr get whats so hard to understand about it.

because they are your friends and friends encourage you, good for you. That doesnt mean the shit you make is hot shit. This general has no issue dickriding shit we find genuinely good, if the shit you make is some generic splice loops house/jungle beat or 4 chord rock tune with some programmed drums, well for your friends that might seem impressive, but for the rest of us, it's not that impressive.

We're not here to prop up your ego. If we hear issues with your songs, we're going to point it out, if it's meh and forgettable, then nobody is going to bother even critiquing it, if it's genuinly good or impressive, people are going to tell you. I've been on the recieving end of both, people telling me my shit is the worst shit they've ever heard and people telling me my shit is the best shit they've heard in these generals.

But slapping together some drums and basslines isnt going to impress us, it's rudimentary, it's like showing up to art class and feeling scoffed because nobody praised your stickman drawings.

They were random people who happened to hear my song. My mastering engineer loves my stuff, I've had dj's from renowned labels like them online. I've had people like my stuff here too but lately a lot of negativity.
There is nothing wrong with slapping together some drums and a bassline and using splice btw, it's a means to an end. The process leads to the art. I like to tweak and edit and mess with samples and mix in synthesis with it.

It's half decent, I'm not blown away either. The vocals needs some work though, has a strong siblance to it like you've overcooked it with ott or something. Vocals are also a little loud in the mix, if you pull it back just a few db it will sound more like its in the mix rather than on top of it.

Question.

I am fiddling away with techniques to get a bit more width out of my mixes without slapping some stereo imaging tool on it and maxing that out, which comes with its own set of headaches when it comes to stereo phase cancelation.

I tried something else. I slapped a very short reverb as a send on my instruments, used a Stereo EQ and totally removed all mid information on the reverb, leaving me with nothing but stereo information. Meaning that if I mono the mix, the stereo reverb should cancel itself out completely but not interfering or phasing with the mono'ed song?

The stereo reverb looks like this (pic) Stereo side EQ with a little slope to not widen the low end and to the right an vectorscope an as you can see, the stereo only reverb is completely in negative phase corelation.

It's an impuls (IR) reverb so it colors the send somewhat.

Does this make any sense? And will this bite me in the ass?
>>
>>124347726
really like the tones/sound youve built
not a huge fan of the the rhythm
>>
>>124347746
Yes it makes sense, it’s not wrong, it’s good, but it fundamentally isn’t any less “harmful” than using a stereo imaging plugin.

What is potentially “wrong” with such plugins is that if you don’t know what you’re listening for, it can throw off the balance of your mix, or sound cluttered with excessive use.

What you should actually be checking for in mono is that the balance is still the same, or it at least just sounds *good* (i.e you could actually show it to people and it doesn’t sound weird or anything.

Using reverb specifically as side only is dangerous because you’d be mixing around that added space- it could end up sounding comparatively empty in mono.

I don’t know what your arrangement is like, but imo it’s best to do fucky stuff like on only one element at a time (as opposed to how people would treat a “gluing” reverb or anything like that) to make one thing pop, rather than adding it to everything to get a “collective” width of that makes sense.

All of this should really be just a cherry on top though and it’s way more beneficial to just give your sounds a good stereo image to begin with though.

Synth wise, don’t just spam unison, use precise wavetable spread, phase without the randomness, or at least constrained etc.
Reprint your drum one shots with this type of stuff baked in, or better yet, printed and faded so you don’t get transients doubled up and peaking freaky, so on so on.
>>

thanks for settling my mind on it, I've had trouble with mono compatability before, not that it is such a huge issue for me, but I'm trying to clean up my mixes in that regard.
>Using reverb specifically as side only is dangerous because you’d be mixing around that added space- it could end up sounding comparatively empty in mono.
I'm just trying to achieve width without making the mix sound like it's in a room or hall and I was trying something akin to the haas effect essentially.

chill out, come back tomorow, posts some fresh music, dont get upset if someone doesnt like it, try to take constructive feedback to heart and keep working on your stuff.
>>
>>124348079
It’s not a “TECHNIQUE” that people do, it’s just advice from… my brain.

Just turn up a few voices, then instead of detuning, try turning up the spread slightly and pay attention to what happens.
Just think about it like, for example, having a few slightly different hard panned saw waves as opposed to identical detuned saw waves.
You can play with the detuning as well, but there’s a spot where you can achieve more of a clear stereo sound without that obvious detuning.
>>
>>124348145
My main point was that people criticise the music here from such a negative place without telling you how to improve it and it was disproportionate from the feedback I have gotten IRL and from other producers online

yes but I don't see what that has to do with anything. if I can hate your song then it isn't amazing yet.

kinda but at the same time people say learning piano skills is a waste of time. at least becoming a pro-tier pianist is silly when you can remap scales to the white keys in software. serum presets aren't even velocity sensitive by default, even paid preset packs from various sources.
>>
>>124354055
if you can buy one right now then get it, if you have to save up for one then just do it like the other anon said and map whatever scale you're using to the white keys so you just have to use the middle row of the keyboard "ASDFGHJ", having to use "WETYU" for the black keys is weird

There is such pure freedom in being able to open FL Studio, and clicking through samples in Fruity Cloud until something catches my ear. Instantly, I have inspiration.
I apply my skill to the track - my sound choices honed after 8 years of layering sounds together.
I know synthesis, and I know music theory. I can map whatever scale I want to the white keys. Yet, loops remain the key to success - the driver of my innovation and ingenuity.

>I can map whatever scale I want to the white keys.

>>124354055
nope. it's nice to have though. I recently got an akai lpd8 thing which I discovered has the ability to hold midi notes which is great because you can set up huge cool sound design sessions really quickly. so that kind of workflow makes the process waaay more fun but it's completely doable without it. I made this in caustic,.an Android app while on a bus lol. it's not exactly good but it is music and was produced without a midi keyboard. https://vocaroo.com/1fV1zWvaalR3
>>124355366
I also really like samples though I make mine. couldn't make any in the stupid lite version of the app though.
>>
>>124355366
i know this is bait, but yeah pretty much. historically sampling has always been a fundamental aspect of electronic music. at the end of the day you can make whatever music you want and you think sounds good, nobody cares how you do it.
>>
>>124355673
they provide a lot of fertile, nubile soil. like yeah you can calculate a waveform like a nerd (which is based) or you can fuck with an already harmonically rich one. and if you're worried about getting caught you just have to get good enough at manipulating samples or just don't care.

Why are faggots still strawmaning "b- because samples..!"

It is idiotic to hate on something in current year JUST because it's a sample. This much is obvious.
People are hating on YOU because your song SOUNDS LAZY, and it has nothing to do with what you used to make it.
Loop spam just enables a lower barrier to entry so people who suck can more easily make a "finished product" and raise the skill floor for music as a whole.

You're not Daft Punk. You're not Madlib.
Your song is just not good.
Stop whining about people calling you on it.

Going back to try and learn jazz cause I heard ascension earlier this week and it clicked. Alternating between jazz and the songs I just enjoy listening to should make for some good practice i hope. I have to say, the way jazz sheet music is setup makes it a lot easier to learn than normal songs. Having the left hand chords above the treble clef saves me a lot of thinking.

you're not supposed to think about *the note* you're supposed to think about where it is on the keyboard relative to the instrumnt

i.e the bottom space is F so the line up is G, A-B so on so on, and then change depending on key signature or sharp/flat etc

i too, was dumb, until my clearly abused literal autism only friend told me that's how to sight read cello.

My friends say I write like a girl cause it's neat. I'm not sure who to trust... I'm 28 and reading is hard. Cheating is the only way I'll ever learn how to read. I was doing some research on jazz musicians and a lot of these niggas I listen to just don't read sheet music. I feel like it'll be a good skill to have so I'm working on it. However it's just so odd that all the greatest musicians have some quote about not knowing how to read or just calling it useless.
>>
>>124356345
kek people are just being so (mostly) unhelpful op. I feel bad, I will take you seriously. I can't read music so I can't help at all.

then don't make music that focuses on those instruments. bass is a different story, things like ezbass are good, but if you don't know how to play any of the instruments it's going to sound like shitty midi anyway

depends on what you goals are, like if you mess around in a DAW or hit random notes/chords on your keyboard it doesn't translate that much to sheet music

Reaper or FL Studio?

And why?
>>
>>124356706
FL because it's more popular and actually has good instruments and people who use it are less autistic and defensive about it (but still extremely defensive about it)

i'm gonna try reaper, first i was just going to route my system audio into it so i can use it instead of equalizerAPO but it seems flexible and resource efficient for advanced users. i'm the type of guy who would read all 349 pages of the UVI falcon manual though.

>All routing has a matrix interface, which is basically the patch bay workflow without the mess of cables. Tracks can be placed in a folder hierarchy (tree-structure), where parent folders can contain any number of child folders, which is nice for organisation, and allows you to collapse / hide groups of tracks. By default parent folders receive the outputs of all their children as input, implicitly creating a bus. For side-chaining you use the matrix routing interface within each track. First you add channels dedicated to the side-chain input, then you route those channels into the side-chain receptors of the plugin. All in all, in REAPER you build a graph network between all of your inputs (media items / hardware inputs / sound generating fx) and your outputs (master, monitors / headphones) to define the signal flow and you only get one flexible basic building block, which makes it easy to master. Except REAPER just added containers which like racks allow you to encapsulate effect chains.

mapping every scale to the white keys has in it a spirit of cheating insofar you seemingly get to the result with shortcut but you deprave yourself of the true ability that you get by learning properly the whole range of keys on the piano and the musicality and true range of potential you get with learning properly
so its same with every other kind of cheating, you get the shortcut to the result but it will definitely be a surogate of the real result

he doesn't know what he's talking about, hence using a phrase that has no meaning in production. the click is the metronome but he probably meant something with clipping. it's most likely the "audio quality" schizo that doesn't produce any music
>>
>>124361654
when it comes to cheating, I have to ask the question "what exactly am I cheating at?" what is my goal with cheating here, when do I win? when have I cheated and, as a resulted of cheating, won at music? it doesn't seem like music is something you can win or lose at so it doesn't seem possible to cheat at it, yes, even the spirit of cheating isn't present because cheating is fundamentally going against the rules. and there aren't real rules, I won't pretend that there's no value to music theory, there is, but it is objectively possible to make music without it. I disagree that the result is a surrogate of the real result, the result IS the real result. when I make a synthesized transformer noise, that isn't "a surrogate of the sound I wanted to make" it's "the sound I wanted to make".

>I would have to take a lot of decisions myself and veto anything I don't like, rather than making a poll for everything (I think that by now you can trust that I'm going to act in the interest of the album)
>stricter submission rules to ensure that I don't miss anything (scrolling /dmp/ twice isn't that big of a deal but doing the same with /prod/ would take too much time)
If you guys are ok with terms like these I'd be happy to start doing /prod/ albums as well, maybe starting the submission period on January 1st so we can standardize the deadlines.
Would you guys be interested in something like this?

To be perfectly honest, I don't really want to do any of this stuff (here or in /dmp/), but if I want it to happen there doesn't seem to be another option. However, if you guys can organize it without me being a despot, I think it would be even better for everybody.

i'd love if /prod/ did a sample-flip challenge, but i understand that theres a lot of people here who make genres that wouldn't work with a sample-flip challenge (i.e. the gay guitar songs that get posted).

a /prod/ album would be a good idea though - but i'd imagine the cynics in here would find reason to complain
>>
>>124368614
>sample-flip challenge
I specifically remember somebody trying to start this and it failed multiple times.
There version of it was something like random freesounds sounds though, so maybe if somebody made a more approachable incarnation of that...
>>
>>124368632
if the sample provided is shit then its too much of a struggle for beginner /prod/ucers, so a good sample would be the key to good engagement

will dig through my samples and see if theres anything i think could be used for a wide variety of tracks
>>
>>124368664
breaks are easy.
one or two, edited and unedited, plus a handful of drum one shots would leave a lot of room for people to do whatever.

one single MIDI track with a few sections to work with.

the attention whore in me says offer up a track to remix

... i'm just throwing out ideas; i'm not a consistent participant in anything lol

>>124368614
You can't make everyone happy. If some Anons don't like one album's theme/requirements/whatever, they can wait for the next. No reason to take it away from those who do want it, if they're a sufficiently large number.

>>124368632
That was also me lol. On our "cd Samples" album we let everyone post any sample they wanted, and the participants had to make music with at least one sample from the pack.

BEING and ACTING like a stereotypical "artist" type is definitely gay as fuck, but the majority of popular music makers are still ruled by male bravado, and being a *fan* is completely divorced from that altogether.

... like bro REAL WORLD people are definitely not thinking of music as being super gay, and if they were, every time somebody who's ACTUALLY gay got mainstream attention it wouldn't still be some super big deal and make all this controversy lol.
That's not where peoples' heads are at

The mixdown is a bit smashed, will fix later.

How to fix the drop on this? I had an old project from 2015-2016, very Tchami esque, wanted to finish it, but I cant for the life of come up with any build up and drop that makes sense without going full on 30 tracks of sweeps, snare buildups and such.
It just doesnt work as it currently is. Any pointers or ideas?

when male artists target heterosexual females, they take on an effeminate style with high pitched vocals to target underage girls, they're seen as gay in spirit even if they're technically heterosexual. for example justin bieber got bullied hard by anyone who wasn't a little girl. metalheads are closeted by acting like they're tough but they have long hair and it's a sausagefest.
>>
find it ironic that people are saying /prod/ is full of gays, while calling cis white males in this thread "girls"
maybe, just maybe, the truth is that people are trying to make this thread gay when really we're all cis white males that vote right

>male popstars that panders to a female audience look effeminate
and the sky is blue, what are we even arguing here. Labels figured this shit out way back in the 80's that women like the dreamy, sensitive, slightly effeminate male artists. Boybands in the 90s made billions off that shit. I dont know why this is even an argument.

I haven’t argued with anybody in literally months but okay

trying to do any of that is seen as faggy and embarrassing, don't kid yourself. you can cope when you're successful but most people aren't successful. some fanbases can invent a headcanon that the artist is cool but the general public doesn't think that.
>>
How does one exude masculine energy as a music artist?

>>124369413
>trying to do any of that is seen as faggy and embarrassing, don't kid yourself
I just dont understand what you're getting at
>you shouldnt do that because some people will think you're gay
Is that the crux of your position?
So? If you walk up on a stage and sing "baby baby baby ooooooo yea" for a living and drown in money and pussy as a result of that, I dont think they really care all that much what people think of them other than their immediate fanbase. Most pop stars are attention whores and would literally suck a dick for a record deal.

It's just a dude standing in an open field, literally doing fucking nothing. If you get "this looks kinda gay" out of that, you have some fucking issues you need to deal with.

What would you have him do to not, according to you, excude femininity and homosexuality? Stand barechested, roided the fuck out like hulk hogan while punching a bear, holding a beer in the other while two scantily clothed women fawn at his legs and big bold letters over his head, reading "I'M NOT A SISSY, LISTEN TO MY SHIT"

I think its the neighborhood schizo talking to himself while others chime in occationally.
Just ignore the argument, it's going nowhere, we're all just arguing with a schizo who replies to things in his head and projecting it onto whoever it is he's replying to, arguing shit that wasnt said or implied.
He isnt talking to anyone but himself. He's the one posting random youtube videos as well. If there's random youtube videos, the schizo is in town.

is there any decent free AI's out there to isolate vocals?

I use this https://ultimatevocalremover.com/
there's a mode in it that splits that track into 4 stems - drums, bass, vocals and other (everything else)
its freeware but its a 1.6gb download

>just improv like 5-20 minutees piano
Oh, no. I do do this fairly often (just not to a click) -- it's working inside a DAW/on my computer that I avoid.
I did start trying to open Live every day awhile back, but that fell off.
I'll figure it out one of these days. Might even get an upgrade from Live Lite to Standard this coming black friday/cyber monday (as if that would do anything -- I'm perfectly fine with Lite for now).
>>
>>124371195
>upgrade from Live Lite to Standard
i mean, aside from it just being worth it, there's like, the psychology of "oh it costed a lot... i better use this shit" lol
>>
>>124371337
>1337
Checked.
>"oh it costed a lot... i better use this shit"
Bruh ;_;
I have a fuckin' giant Ampeg tube bass amp (head + cabs) and a fancy Laney guitar tube amp (head + single cab) that I got years ago and I have never plugged either of them in.

Regarding Standard features, the only thing I feel like I'm missing out on is being able to create an extra audio track for each midi track that I have (due to the 8 track limitation in Lite).
Slice to midi would be nice too, but I can do that manually in Lite -- it just takes more time.

>>124371430
Idk maybe you should go the opposite way and sell all your belongings except music stuff then so you literally have nothing else to do when you’re home.
I am being 100% serious
>>
>>124371430
nta, so glad i never got an actual "nice" bass amp. i grew up wanting some swr, ampeg, or gk head and 8x10 cab but just ended up with solid state 2x10 instead. after going away to college, never really had a chance to play bass in a band.

i have a 30w tube amp that i can almost never play because it's too loud and just do everything bass and guitar di'd into the box now lol. some good all my expensive pedals and pedaltrain is
>>
>>124371473
LMAO same

I got a practice ampeg as a teenager that I think actually has a pretty nice direct out sound, BUT I got a larger size because bigger=better and obviously my literal autistic “friends” are going to be as into it as I am and we’re totally gonna need to be LOUD and now it’s just a pain in the ass to move because i am small and weak fuck.

I do play the crap out of my digital piano, I just almost never record.. and I don't really write my own stuff.
>>124371473
>never really had a chance to play bass in a band.
It's never too late! I'm not going to give up on my dream. I just need to write all the music first and then find interested people.. I think.
I also have this dream of recording myself playing guitar and bass and then reamping it so it comes out of my amps while I play drums and sing.
>>
>>124371532
>It's never too late!
jokes on you, it's getting more and more common for venues to be "silent stage" so you don't even feel the bass rumble through you. no more backlines
