I'm really enjoying this set, I wish I could make music like thathttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FQj71mhobYw

>>129905727The previous thread was >>129838180I didn't make this thread btw im not the OP of (You)r thread I have to clarify this because some anon thinks I was. Thank you for making the next /prod/ I didn't realize the previous died already.
https://vocaroo.com/1ht5RQEQRRz4What do we think fellas

>>129907547sounds nice I guess but not really my thing

Do transcriptions count? I made an acapella verson of a [spoiler]furfag[/spoiler] song.
https://vocaroo.com/1ffTqIi6zbIVAny way to improve this shit? It's dungeon synth so it's kinda shit by default.
>>129910018Everything counts, fren.
>>129906642Who's the kitty?
>>129910032Add pauses: your phrasing is too constant and it becomes tiring fast. Just because it's ambient doesn't mean you shouldn't have intentional melodic phrases.Add tracks: in 2026 there's no limitation on the number of tracks you can use. Why would you have less than 40? Sound cohesion, I know; but you could always choose like 5 main sounds and a bunch of occasional ones for details.Especially at 1:30, you could add some distant bells or something.3:20 is too bright in comparison to the rest of the track, doesn't fit the sound selection, and the brightness isn't justified by a change in the composition/harmony.Overall, it might be too repetitive harmonically: again, just because you're making ambient doesn't mean you have to stay on the pedal note for the whole track. Add a B section then come back to your pedal.I do like your string sound, especially in the low register. Reminds me of Deus Ex. And harmonically you nailed the vibe. So you're getting there.Posting one of my own dungeon synth tracks for fairness:https://voca.ro/1m1IqZo1ucJ4This was composed for an upcoming video game which is literally about exploring dugeons (a twin-stick rogue-like), sorta similar to Crawl.So I had to follow some instructions: using gamecube-era sounding sounds, not switching up the harmony too much, looping smoothly, etc.
ngl i'm tweaking about it https://vocaroo.com/1ljoYjae5TJ0i am not HYPED about anything yet but new slayyyter and also slayr were mostly cool. SD16 was dope fr.idk i actually imagined radiohead on it and actually got an absynth patch for it so that may be a move idk idk...str8 and alert (jk)/bloog
>>129910840>https://voca.ro/1m1IqZo1ucJ4hope it's for a section where all the characters take a quick nap, cause this is a real snoozefest.
https://vocaroo.com/1bqkRyoD9lODearly stages mixi fw the idea though
>>129911244Ow, man. Painful to the ears but there is music in there somewhere
stuck on this dnb projecthttps://voca.ro/1ojBMfQwFM99glad for any tips
>>129887179I'm still trying to learn from this song. Feels like I'm close but it's just so slightly off that I'm going insane. It reminds me of when I started to draw years ago, that feel when you draw a hand and looks awful but you still don't know how to fix it. It's like that but with music, this is neat.https://vocaroo.com/16sT7L7CMb3phttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g0z94Y2p9ZM
music is beautiful af tho keep up mane
i used my phone to record myself whistling a melody the other day and now I don't know how to get listen to iti'm fucking too old for these phones these days i guess
>>129914701I hope you find out. One day I found a recording on my phone of me humming a bassline. I don't remember recording it and had forgotten the bassline but I know it was when I was taking a leak at a rehearsal. I still use it to this day, it's the highlight of the song.
Damn I need to start selling some tracks so I can buy a new laptop
Any tips on turning my male vocals into female vocals? I have a whole track I've managed to eek out with some "female" vocals I detuned, but I'm kind of getting some sigher pitched whining with some of it.
>>129910980This whole consumerist trend of naming everything with words like ultra, pro, max, etc. is getting quite fucking annoying. Anyways is this product good?
>>129910032If it is dungeon synth I'm afraid your only option is to embrace the shit and leave it as it is
>>129910840thank you anon for the critique, I will definitely do some of that.Do you have SC/BC? I know it's forbidden in the /prod/ thread but I'd love to find more amateur DS creators to bounce ideas off of.>>129916480fair which is why it's hard to get genuine critique for it.
>>129916393https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cbNnJLWhu8UThis guy apparently did his own vocals for it and "feminized" it in audacity or some DAW. He made a video explaining how he did it at one point but i can't find it now sorry I looked for like 10 minutes.
>>129911975It's fine until the drums then the reese and vocals are mashed in the same freq bands and the kick isnt doing it any favors.
Here's something I'm working on for the /dmp/ movie music album, please take a quick listen (it's 27 seconds)I know you'll probably say I'm using the sidechains too hard, I'm still learning how to use them, so I'm working on thatI also feel like it's missing something... like it needs another layer or sound or melody, but not sure what yethttps://vocaroo.com/1nIUwpn5rvnf
>>129911244based.I can't remember where I left off with that slime show...don't want to get spoiled with the new season.>>129911361Cinematic. I dig it.>>129914149>that feel when you draw a hand and looks awful but you still don't know how to fix itI love that feeling. It means you have room to grow and the path forward is right in front of you.Your rhythm is totally whack, jack. You need to write it in 6/8 for that triplet feel.https://vocaroo.com/1gHO6W7dtSFl
https://vocaroo.com/1lqQAZ3JuAXgdid i compress the vocals too much
>>129910092some random scene girl image I found on the internet, nobody important
>>129916928Side chain sounds ok. Make sure to solo that track and make sure you're not removing too much of the sound you want.Tracks like that could always use some screaming electric guitar
>>129917807ThanksYeah everthing actually sounds alright in solo. I can try a guitar thing
https://vocaroo.com/1gxZ8xSpb1ECFinal-ish mix of what i published earlier on the thread
bump
>>129916928Firstly, Rohan theme is great. Secondly, you could add in the backing chords that support that main violin melody, which would add something that's missing. Thirdly, basic 4 on the floor over a simplified version of the melody is a bit uninspired, so could also just be that the idea is not great as is.
>>129919434Are you the dungeon synth guy?
https://voca.ro/1kfvNEmhFiHithoughts on what can be improved, thinking mostly about the ending section as it might not really fit the overall theme of the track
>>129919434ThanksI do have the backing chords there, I can try to make them more distinct. Everything is blending together I think. And my plan is to make a trance track out of it.. so, four on the floor. Right now, just trying to nail down the main sound elements and get the melodies in.
https://voca.ro/163GouEFj2Lmi've gone completely schizo and can no longer tell if I like the lead melody, it sounds out of tune but I can't put my finger on it or fix it or if I just need a new sample or EQplease help. any critique wanted
>>129916674so new kick and eq stuff better?hmmm i think the bass needs work and im not a fand of the synth hits
>>129920877Yeah it needs eq, the progression is aight though. Try sidechaining the bass and synth to the kick if you're married to it.

Little did the poor soul know what would happen if I had motivation to set my gear actually up.Nor his neighbor.Or the guy a couple, six I think, apartments, over, that I wrote to let me know when it's a bit too loud that I meanlove&kisses
https://vocaroo.com/1bKz7hAVxyNk
made a demo of a song. I come closer to have enough material for an evening-filling concert, but I don't have a band.Maybe I could record the clarinet part with a friend who plays clarinet.It sucks to be limited to these MIDI demoshttps://vocaroo.com/11znCfTaXMBb
Do I get myself an Elektron?
>>129924520dawless is a meme. no one i know who's bought one has used it after 6 months and i doubt youll be the exception
>>129924520>>129924663NTA I love me both some good soft and hardware....but outside of them getting money from me, I'm kinda failing to see what they want from me.Uninspired. You know who you are.Just kidding, ofc you don't.
>>129924663maybe you know the wrong people? I'm not a dawless guy either, but I know that playing a synth is a better flow than pushing a mouse around
Why did the musician keep all of his synths on the table? Because he is drawerless.:)
