For anyone who has experience with both, is there a noticeable difference between Massive and Vital, like a reason to pick one over the other? I seen a few well-known artists mention using Massive, but I don't hear anyone talk about Vital outside of youtubers.
https://vocaroo.com/1c5MFPZNT3Axdoes this sound mexican/latin
>>129842844>I seen a few well-known artists mention using MassiveIs this 2012? Havent heard anyone talk about Massive 1 or 2 ever since Serum came out. Vital=SerumSerum 2 is just Serum 2.0 with more shit.If you just need some basses and leads and wubs and shit, just get Vital. If you're planning on going deep into sound design, go with Serum 2.
https://vocaroo.com/1czNZzanNc3bkino
>>129842844I mostly use Vital for subs and making different fx since it's so easy to make exact
>>129842844vital is more visual and has more wavetable options iirci'm using massive though because it's lighter on ram
>>129842844yes, there is a noticeable difference but not in the way people think. It’s less about raw capability and more about workflow, legacy, and “sound culture.”The core reality is both Massive and Vital are wavetable synths. In 2026, you can make almost the same sounds in either.So the real differences come down to:workflow / UI, built-in character, ecosystem (presets, tutorials, industry inertia, etc)The reason you hear artists mention Massive more is history, not superiority.>>129838210using SWAM for ensemble writing is a bit different from sample libraries you’re basically conducting virtual soloists, not triggering pre-recorded sections. That’s why it can sound insanely real… but also why it’s harder.SWAM instruments are monophonic and expressive by design.To make an ensemble, you don’t just “load a violin section” hurrdurr you ahve to: Layer multiple instances, give each one slight human variation this is also why it sounds so good and it can make midi. if ur good at keys u can do this but also u have to EQ the violin or flute differently its sound is more wavy it doesn't come out of the Aether.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=clF_CsGVdB4https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C5t4EOGItcwhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SHn_JoXCVmU
>>129844656>The reason you hear artists mention Massive more is history, not superiority.This makes sense. Guess I'll stick with Vital for now cause it's free and I'm still learning.>built-in characterI do wonder about this. I've seen lots of opinions saying that, although Vital is good, Serum still sounds better regardless, but it's a tough one to measure due to how much of that is personal preference/loyalty/familiarity etc.
>>129844656I wanna get some smooth ensemble strings with legato like in old easy listening music
>>129845045SWAM violin has legato function and all that jazz you will figure it out just follow the tutorialsalso swam stuff is expensive... so idk man maybe u can find them in piratebay FOR FREE! But they wont be the updated verisons.

>>129845092What about kontakt libraries?
>>129845073>please stop baiting me.You need to take a break from these threads, it's as simple as that.
>>129845123>What about kontakt libraries?Nope.Plugins (VST/AU/AAX), running on their own proprietary engine, based on physical modeling, not traditional sampling.u gonna have to learn music theory and to play bitch. Which is good. Git gud.
why is he so good bros does learning polyrhythms and debussy and choppin really make you this god-like at every genre:https://youtu.be/Al1MOxgQGf4?si=90hnLnQ3rOBJSVtIhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_6A1DBHptJQhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NnxxtkIkGAkhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sqd6E-gX2J0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRKLpMSi4skeven his daughters are good:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XDHGd4xE_D4
>>129845126not wrong
ok that was the worst mashup I think I ever heardwtf was he thinkinghttps://youtu.be/XM0zfkqLMzI?t=4802 (around 1:20)This one is so much betterhttps://youtu.be/pxZTz0WPFVw
>>129846316how do those veneues fill up, i never seen a DJ live is this seriously what they do nothing they dont even dance??????????The fuck! How much do those concerts cost? 50 bucks? it must be a low price no way this is like 120-150 bucks. The Musicians have no energy. If you are not gonna play anything or sing then at least dance bombastically.
>>129846366It's a festival. Ultra Miami is like $500 for 3 day tickets. There's multiple stages, they rotate performers every hour or two (bigger names get more time). Also, it's not really a "concert", it's a rave. Like a temporary dance club. Sometimes they bring out vocalists who sing and dance a little, but not much. You don't go to a rave to see the DJ dance, you go to hear them mix and so they can make you dance.
>>129846416ngl classical music is making me realize:>techno music are just a bunch of amateur af composers, except maybe Deadmau5 who is intermediate and thats only when he is a tryhard>rap is not music (this is a given)>metal is for manchildsWhen you finally listen and see higher skill cieling music being played you just appreciate how superior the showman ship is. 500 bucks for that energy... Man I would consider that a scam.Thats like 166$ per day. There is high effort musicans that cost less than that. I get why people go to those though Rave Girl coochie and to do acid and MDMA and what not but that is only going to make the expenses skyrocket. The MDMA and the LSD s another 166$ per day.The post rave date with the Rave Girl is another 166$ Like what are we doing here. You can buy a Glarry 88 keys Keyboard of Guitar to learn to play music with less than 166$ nowadays...Not dissing on techno it has it's place in music and there is great compositions out there but I woulddnt pay so much money to watch / listen to that...Btw I gotta ask is the Rave scene dying? Do Zoomers go to Raves?
>of Guitar*or Guitar
>>129846464So you came into a music producing thread to shit on all of us and the music we like and like to create?OkBut if you're curious, try listening to Trance. Of all the electronic genres, it's probably the closest to classical. It's very melodic, has a lot of arpeggios, multiple layers, a lot of emotion to it. Armin, one of the DJs in the video I linked above, is a trance producer, but he wasn't really playing trance in that video/set. That was mostly party remixes of other stuff.
>>129846366>>129846464>bait posting with epic meme frogeyou almost had me until “the post rave date” and buying the keyboard bit
>>129846527Keep creating man just consider grinding those keys skills they go hand in hand with techno. Dont just be a sample tard. If you ever play a concert i recommend you have a camera for your hands while you play piano actually takes skill, hypes you up even to dance because the hands themselves are doing a dance with the melody and rhythm as you play them. Therefore even the show that the public sees is better and doesnt feel like a scam because there is action. Not just 2 gen Xers that are becoming boomers moving side to side and raising their hands every 2 minutes when the break down or bass drop happens.I woudln't ever pay to watch that type of musicmanship.>>129846535yeah unironically buy a glarry and git gud stop wasting time
>>129846527>But if you're curious, try listening to Trance. Of all the electronic genres, it's probably the closest to classical.Im aware of this btw. Its just that I never seen a DJ live ever not even in video, it was very underwhelming. I'm going to see if Joel at least hypes up more his venues. I seriously hope he does.
yeah Joel's music is much better live than that guy Armin but damn he is getting old all the EDM scene is getting old af. And like I said it would be better if he was playing a piano, not just the notes there in the background. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5LqJCIi6p7YY'all EDM composers would benefit a lot of having live concerts with a keyboard plugged in. Like miles more, watch any of the Yellow Magic Orchesta concerts and just do something like that. It even costs less to set it up. Those DJ set ups look expensive as fuck. Basically just do the same just bring your keyboard if you gonna perform live I believe that hack Apextwin does this right? I gave him a shot didnt like his music thoughanyway YMO mogs:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bIieWn42beY
4chan boomers are so weird on this board bro
>>129846798>even the show that the public sees is better and doesnt feel like a scam because there is action. Not just 2 gen Xers that are becoming boomers moving side to side and raising their hands every 2 minutes when the break down or bass drop happens.Trvth Nvke and sick burn>>129846966I'm like 20 years younger than all the oldheads in those EDM shows. This guy is fucking 49 dude, unc about to have his first heart attack in 1 year.
>>129846798>composers would benefit a lot of having live concerts with a keyboard plugged in.Some do, it's called Live Production (versus a Live Set, which is DJing), and it's difficult as fuck. I guess if you had a full band with multiple people, it'd be possible, otherwise you're still depending on a lot of pre-setup and coordination. Giuseppe Ottaviani does it sometimes:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xOTTRy5JLfQI actually tried to write some software a while back to make it easier with a touchscreen laptop or something, but it didn't really go anywhere.
>>129847562this looks hype, he is actually playing his shit, beautiful you can see the passion see what i mean. The other DJs look like they are old and bored of doing the same shit for so many years and are former husks of themselves just moving side to side like zombies. I think the rave scene will die a lot after the Millenial Generation. If they dont pick up keys it will be joever. Zoomers are already extremely unmotivated to go to concerts or anywhere social as it is. You have to give them extra sauce so they go.
made this this afternoon. is it something or nah really https://vocaroo.com/1bU4OJrHcVSh
>>129847792well you got a melody, thats very valuable in itself. it means it has direction. Find a way to give it variation, same tonal center.music has architecture to it, its sectional. That sounds like a verse part just before a bridge.
>>129847792Imagine yourself Jazzing out and improvising over what you already got there in that section. That way you come up with beautiful harmony something that fits with the layer of melody you already got going on. It must all be sounds you like, it can be a chord that resonates with you or another instrumental layer doing the same exact thing as the melody or adding "echo" to it (playing only the last 3-2 notes of the key's melody for example). Either another piano with a different distortion that fits that tone you got going on or electric guitar or something.
Also use a reference track if you need to.
>>129847931first thing you’ve said that isn’t completely dumb and small minded
>>129847863>>129847923>>129847931that kinda stuff I will think about, but i guess im wondering if theres a feeling there. like does the relationship between the melody and chords/bass evoke a good feeling?
somebody explain r2r system and how one would know anything about this shit?i just tried updating the kilohearts package (didn’t work) and end up seeing a random comment about needing this secondary thing for it to work, which was not instructed, of course.these cracks used to be so simple man
>>129842844>>129843945I don't know why people don't recommend Surge XT more instead. The only thing I'm not sure it can do that Vital can is modulating modulations (and there's usually some other way of achieving the same result by modulating envelope amplitude anyway).
>>129846366Closest I've been to a DJ concert was going to see Justice, and it was a blast, they still did a good job hyping people up. That on the other hand does indeed look like a completely ass experience.
internal resampling, all of the wavemorphing, filters, modulation re-mapping, to name a few.that said, surge has things vital doesn’t as well, like pretty much all of the effects, and unique oscillators like the string thing.
>>129848503I used it in my track for the /dmp/ albumIt doesn't sound great, but that's mostly because idk what I'm doing. I used a lot of stock Ableton filters though too

How do I learn music theory from scratch? Every time I tried to learn it from some youtube videos I couldn't help but not understand why the things were decided to be that way and not any other way
>>129850320if you are not having fun dont bother. you should be finding the sounds that resonate with you first then try to find a fellow autist that is obessed with that musician. I do this for Hamauzu I'm grinding to unlock his style. I bought the sheet music from his website, all of that. There is tasteful motifs he repeats and I want those too or variations of.There is no point absorbing knowledge that you know you wont use when composing your own music. Not at first because you are going to get bored and give up, at first make sure learning is fun enough to keep you entertained. Also likely you are going to have to learn to read sheet music because a lot of the good shit is in sheets and not synthesia, you can only get so far with synthesia. Also and here is the thing: synthesia can read sheet music too apparently and midi.learn the letter notation, sheets if you wanna push yourself futher, familiarize yourself with your favorite sounding chords, arpeggios, etc. Make your own motif picking and discarding things you like / dislike.
>>129847792Nice jam, really fun to play over. Nostalgic strut are the words that come to mind. Kind of a wistful feeling but hopeful and triumphant at the same time. I don't know if that makes sense.
>>129850320>not understand why the things were decided to be that way and not any other wayit's like grammarit's simply explaining the communication patterns that have solidified themselves over centuries of historyculture and taste decided things to be that way. you'll see the "other" ways in other cultures' music theory
>>129850320I struggled with this for a long time, it all seemed so fucking arbitrary and it made me mad at it. Eventually it clicked when I started to treat "music theory" as basically cataloguing things that happen to sound good to most people, and there usually isn't a good justification for why that's the case because it's just meant to be an observation of a pattern and not an axiom like in math.
>>129838180https://voca.ro/1buFIp8xIhcCnew version of this track with- quieter hi hats and fewer snare hits in the verse (I'd copied Radiohead's Weird Fishes drum beat but since my tempo is faster it felt a bit too intense)- an outro with percussion instead of soft chords : additional claps, cuica, and a sample of my baby playing with her ball
>>129846416>it's not really a "concert", it's a rave. Like a temporary dance club.it isn't a club nor is it a rave. it is a dj concert. the music performance isn't performed so you can dance as you would at a rave or club, it is performed so you can watch and experience it. you have no idea what you are talking about if you think a major US festival is a rave or club-like.
>>129850320>learn it from some youtube videosthread of morons. >>129850489>it all seemed so fucking arbitraryit is maths presented with Piano Keys. frequencies of notes sound good in certain ratios. if you look at the frequencies in numbers then the patterns emerge and it is clear why chords are chords and certain notes sound good together and others don't.
>>129850581The issue is that part of those tastes are just cultural. For example, dissonance is often treated as the devil but it sounds just fine if you use it in a context where it feels expected.
>>129850581Its cool how tension between chords and harmonics create different emotions and feelings like the tensions between the different planets in gnosticism. like you resolve the emotions and tension and it creates a conversation or story with the notes. I feel like creating music is a way to tune my consciousness.
>>129850569and another tune I'm working on where I hired a sax manlatest changes apart from the sax solo:- added saturation on the guitar phrases in the post-chorus, after the amp sim, just to make them bright as hell- turned down the reverb on the vocals a little bit to give them more clarity

https://voca.ro/1ii36edj0OEgnever posted here before. what's wrong with my music?
>>129851385Lots of things are wrong, sorry anonI don't understand what genre you're trying to make and you don't have the sound design or composition skills to make up your own genreYour bass tone is annoying and too repetitiveYour drums don't have a lot of drive to them and I don't really understand what they're trying to do. Try to really listen to what the drums are doing in the music you like: there are basic drum patterns by genre which you have to borrow from. Watch videos of drummers performing live even if you're programming synth drums.The tones you've chosen for the keys and strings are sort of nice and ambient, that's good.The tune does not seem to go anywhere harmonically or melodically. Your music is not ready to be posted in public yet, which is ok. My tip is: listen really closely to what the music you like is made of. Get a keyboard if you don't have one, and learn some songs.

is using an llm to help the creative process soulless if im only using it to explain how to create a certain sound that i dont understand.i feel like its way better at in depth technical explanations of how doing a certain thing can shape a sound than watching youtube tutorials and whatnot
>>129850320Music Theory is like learning a language.To you the words DICK FUCK SHIT CUM SCAT ANAL RAPE can sound aesthetic but most people don't perceive it that way they sounds vulgar due to the imagery they carryWell similary some Chords are magical and glitery, I call them healing chords. Some apreggios sound watery, some sounds paint a more abyssal ocean floor mysterious and spooky picture. Others a galaxy, space. Others rage, blood, steel and war like Metal which is very fiery.Other sounds are freer, more wind-like such as what is posted on the OP usually acoustic instruments and flutes produce wind elemental music. Then there is the modes Aeolean, Lydian, Mixolydian which tend to sound pretty and mystical. Learn how to use them familiarize with the sounds your instrument can make and associate them with what the human collective conciousness associates them with or dont its up to you. But it serves as a guide, because music is a very fundamental language of what humans and other animals like whales and birds and so on find beautiful. I think most life has the ability to appreciate music. Thats what theory its for it gives structure to all of that, you can discard what is useless and retain the fundamentals n what is useful for you when learning theory which is how ur approach should be at first so you dont get bored.

>>129864800> i played a piano a long time ago as a kid, but i don't remember a damn thing. i don't have any instruments, just a pc. what should i get? what should i learn? don't worry i have a day job and time, and i don't care about "making it"https://midi.city/have foon noodling around. Buy an M-Audio 88 hammer key later on.
>>129865391i mean to say i work part time but i get paid pretty well, and i have time to play games. but gaming is getting stale, so i want to use my time more productively>>129865495i didn't understand any of that, but noted! i see it as a challenge>>129865537that program is pretty fun, thank you! i am a lil receptive to buy a piano, but i will consider it anon
Spliced together a beat I dug up from the ol korghttps://voca.ro/12L37ygFQRWb
>>129865798>i didn't understand any of that, but noted! i see it as a challengeDude how the hell you dont know what letter notation is and supposedly you played piano long ago. are u lying2us rn? its ok to admit u never played anything befo.
>>129865804>https://voca.ro/12L37ygFQRWbI like the sinister dark feel of it, i like the idea not the song which is obviously incomplete i get it dwreminded me a bit of:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z21QGBN3ex4
>>129865798>lil receptive to buy a pianoI bought a digital piano and I regret it. It was fun to noodle around in, but it's huge and heavy, so it takes up valuable space, and now it's super inconvenient to use on the PC with a DAW to do music production because of the size. I wish I had just bought a small midi controller instead, it would've been more versatile and cheaper too.The weighted keys feel really nice to play though I'll admit.
>>129865937i was like 8 anon. i did a child-tier program called suzuki; and barely made it through the first book, then i stopped getting classes. but based on that, i know next to nothing, i might as well be an absolute beginner.>>129866173my friend is giving me some info on pianos, he still prefers his upright
>>129866266>he still prefers his uprightNot that anon, but I'm a penis and I prefer my digital piano (Kawai CA60) over my upright acoustic (some Young Chang from the mid 90s).
actually you need to use your real life piano and make sure the tuning is slightly off or you have no soul
>>129866266>pic rel is goodbut if you want something even cheaper just a full range midi controller basically buy a glarry, never tested them idk how long it will last but its probably alright if you use synth emulators and stuff like that so it doesnt sound cheap, again just using it as a controller it must be fine.

you’re not recording on 1 inch or 2 inch tape your music does not exist in the physical realm of manUsing a computer to record is stupid and the instruments are fake. Buy a fender Rhodes and a guitar and a cassette recorder (which will sound like shit but better than a computer) but you will start to become an actual musician
some historical questionwhere did people upload their creation before soundcloud and audio portal youtube exists?
>>129868887myspace i think..?there’s apparently a pretty cool history of people sharing their tracker creations (on forums(?)) and through physical copies
>>129868887Yeah, myspace.... purevolume, 8bitcollective, mp3.com, angelfire, geocities, the list goes on....
>>129868887>>129868913>sharing their tracker creations (on forums(?))Oh shit, even older than forums -- fucking bulletin boards. God bless BBS.Also, The Mod Archive has been around for over 30 years now.https://modarchive.org/

im starting to actually get pretty good at production, but i have one person in my life who can give me any kind of feedback. how do you seek out and get this constructive criticism (besides 4chan)?
i pirated all of this thing.now what should i do? i'm 30yo and love trance by the way
>>129870190make friends with people better than you in discord communities (or irl if you’re some kind of sociable freak) and then ask them how to git gud
https://vocaroo.com/1gHDNKfh4A2Pvery early rough mixi've been meandering on this idea for a while now
>>129870303this doesn’t need to be five minutes
>>129870450Well it was inspired by some albums that actually make it an hour of this. If i get in the mood i could listen to an hour of something like thisHow do you like it?
>>129870468i don’t care for it honestly, and i love ambient music.maybe i don’t understand what you’re going for, but in both timbre and harmonic progression i just think it falls flat.as is i can see this being an only slightly questionable minute long interlude or something among otherwise straightforward guitar music.
>tfw the producer you looked up to and responsible for keeping your fire alive throughout the years motherfucking killed himself
>>129870817at least it's not herself
>>129870303>https://vocaroo.com/1gHDNKfh4A2PIt's not interesting at all and I had to close it after about 2mins, which is more listening than I should have given it. It sounds like you were going for some clever off-beat sort of effect with each strum, but it's jarring and tedious to listen to. I honestly think you just don't know what you're doing and are trying to replicate things that are beyond your skill level.
>>129864328Yes I like the alchemy synth, when you stick a sample in it you can granularise it and make it an instrument
>>129872123Thats ao cool. Its worth piating then.
>>129870213Learn2play piano. Trance is gr8 btw best EDM subgenre
>>129872553>Trance is gr8 btw best EDM subgenrePlain Trance is way too upbeat and therefore gay. Psytrance and Tech Trance are alright.
