ill cross popst 3 to the vocaloid thread and see if they can do any better

>>105746334
I made an edit where someone was holding a microphone up against the drum, but I used a stock footage image and I didn't want to risk the channel getting a copyright claim when it went on YT, so I threw it away

>>105746412
what kind of microphone

Never posted in these threads before. I have a C64C and wanted to learn SID-Wizard and just how the SID works in general so I made a kind of remix of this old PS1 menu tune from Gran Turismo 1, I recorded it from SID-Wizard using my original C64C linked to my PC and then further edited in FL Studio, restoring the original drums that I laid on top of it. Nothing special but I think it turned out kinda cool, though I think the original is better.

>>105746425
It was a big boom mic, like for TV production, but thinking it over again it would be better if it was one of those cheap clip on mics

>>105748653
I'd maybe consider your rambling if only one vocaroo was posted with it but we all know it will never happen and all those 'facts' you mention will never help your music production because there is none and most probably won't ever be any.

>>105751760
can it do ranked choice voting?

you can try your damn hardest to write a good song, a bunch of anons have been larping for long enough that they should have gotten good by now, but if you release your songs you won't be taken seriously because you don't have a basic clue about production, you can't just bully reality into submission, some anons claim that they are just having fun but some anons like the boomer and justicefag have strong beliefs about commercial success lmao

things I probably need to consistently make good shit:
collecting sounds by genre
learning keyboard (melody, chords, dexterity, reading, memory)
basic music theory
daw mastery
templates & effect chains
sound design
mixing
mastering
composition & arrangement
core sound engineering courses
vocal recording & processing
knob controller recording workflow
maybe build 2 basic vsts (synth + fx)

Why does my square wave generated with the command line utility sox look so weird? It doesn't really look like a fucking square.

>>105755525
cmd warmth

>>105755525
its band limited you fucking goober do you know what aliasing is its antialiased in the frequency domain and thats what a square wave looks like when its filtered even a little bit

>>105755620
I in fact do not know what aliasing or antialiasing is. But perhaps I will learn soon, as Youtube has suggested to me today a playlist which explains basics of audio signal programming.

>>105755427
there's a whole layer of 'magic' that you're oblivious to, especially in the mid 2000s there were some huge hits that had really really unsubtle warmth, any random kid would hear those and realize that there was something special about them and you'd have to be an idiot to think you can produce similar quality songs by yourself, then in the early 2010s there was a lot of shouty digital slop and the music industry declined according to estimates by goldman sachs, now there's an analog revival again and you have to look really hard for any popular song that doesn't have at least very good analog emulation on it which was done deliberately by someone with good ears and good monitors, people like bruno mars are really into analog gear, it's really insufferable how oblivious most anons are to this

>>105755525
Looks like you generated it with the fourier series.

>>105755686
But he did say he needs a synth, what are you even sperging out about?

>https://faustide.grame.fr/
opinions?

>>105756337
nothing about a hardware synth, could be the basic soft synths that anons like that sound incredibly boring on their own without analog processing

>>105756582
Analog emulations sound fine. There are shit ones out there but the good ones do the job just fine. Nobody can tell the difference, anybody who claims they do is on the same level of bullshit as wine tasters.

>>105756782
this is what i'm trying to say you buffoon, the analog emulations don't sound fine, you can get away with some dryness in the production if your mixing is on point but most poorfags probably aspire to do their own mixes
the plugins sound objectively wrong:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XABgvkVUMk8

especially if you have any sort of background in programming, computer science, software development etc you'll know how much slapdash pajeet tier highschool dropout shit there is, they're not trying to simulate the physical circuits, they kind of just do it by ear or otherwise flawed methods and think they can charge hundreds of dollars in some cases nonetheless

>>105756843
why do you always have the urge to voice your own thoughts at all time?

>>105756861
it's mainly the soulja boy skrillex boomer and justicefag who have been harassing me for a long time, they could've let my rhetorical question slide about why you don't see poorfag pajeets making top tier western style music if all you need is a computer and a pirated DAW, it's been really pissing me off how they overvalue songwriting and hate on "gearfags", they've proven time and time again that they're really stupid and despicable people, it gives me great pleasure to make them feel inadequate like i found the vintage SSL VCA timing jitter thing which even SSL themselves probably don't even know, they have the "4K" button on a lot of their new gear which isn't really doing the thing that SSL 4000 series consoles/bus compressors are famous for

>>105756819
I'm not going to watch that
I jumped to a random part of the video
>"it's very subtle... it's maybe a fade thing? I don't know [LOL]
I don't know if the cope is that the poorfags use plugins, or that these idiots are still paying for physical gear when they can't even tell the difference. Literally self-proclaimed audiophile snake oil.

>>105756978
yeah good luck with that, making music that might have sounded ok by 2012 standards when some random kid could become famous on monstercat or whatever, but really will have a snowball's chance in hell in 2025 and beyond

>>105756996
I don't care about fame

>>105757031
you care about starting psycho arguments about how production doesn't matter that much for commercial suuccess, how it's audiophile snake oil etc, most people care about making good music and they're just coping when they say that their unpopular music is good, if your music is actually good it makes sense to profit from it or at least grow a fanbase in some niche genre

>>105757053
I'm not that other schizo
>psycho arguments about how production doesn't matter that much for commercial suuccess
It matters a lot.
For the plugins vs hardware gear argument you'll have to take the matter to the author of this book as it is the one that redpilled me.
Big name engineers tend to be boomers accustomed to working with hardware. It's the workflow that they prefer. Your grandmother probably writes notes on a book instead of a computer simply because it is the way she is used to do so.

ABSOLUTELY DEVILISH(i don't know what the fuck im doing but this is neat)
https://vocaroo.com/19utLABQUFQE

>>105757272
>He is best known as author of over 20 books
>Owsinski has written numerous magazine articles for trade publications
this guy is old as shit and his main hustle now is grifting like bob katz, hardly a credible person, i can hear with my own ears and so can many others, the pressure on mixing engineers to go in the box is for workflow (time is money) and making many revisions for clients, for producing and recording it's practically common sense at least in professional circles to use a lot of hardware

>>105757392
I won't argue with the recording part like, let me pull out my digitial invisible microphone plugin real quick it definitely beats your physical mic. lmao

>>105757645
it's compressors, synths etc too. as a producer you don't have the same requirements to get a dozen mixes out the door in a day, you have an ownership stake even if you're producing for an artist and not being the artist yourself, you can take your sweet time using hardware to get the best sound you can possibly get.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0e9Hk9if7to
this guy isn't a professional and he's talking about mixing with plugins but just look how many people in the comments are doubting him, the commenters don't really know shit about fuck, there are anons who straight up deny that analog warmth/coloration is a thing, they say it's placebo, snake oil etc

>>105756417
Beautiful piece of academic open source DSP software. I've used it to compile pd externals of their classic resonant filters or examples of the DaFX book that were too cumbersome in pd. But if I used a DAW I'd have exported vsts. Can make plugins quite easily as long as you don't ask it Fourier transform or convolution.

>>105756972
>who have been harassing me for a long time
Oh boy, it's you who have been harassing us since you came.

>>105758209
yeah because you suck lmao, you keep beating the same dead horse while not making any substantial progress on your music, while i've learned a ton and acquired plenty of useful gear which i've also learned to service and upgrade because i'm not a tard like you, even if you have the money for a technician i think it's best to take matters into your own hands if you can, the only thing you've taught me is how clueless most people are about music so you're not a threat to me in terms of making better music than me

>>105758269

I find that the more I understand how to make music the less I enjoy it. What's more, I can't enjoy a song I made and/or mixed because I dissected it and listened to it on repeat so much that it becomes meaningless. It's like at least for me, understanding music on a technical level draws the soul out of it.

>>105746678
>Rippin'
The original song's beat is rippin', not me. I actually suck at making beats, always have, so it's nice to remix songs that have sick beats because I can actually do it. My C64 beat sounds fine as-is, but I layered some of the original drums on top of it in FL Studio because it just sounded so much better. I wasn't able to reproduce the busyness of that sick breakbeat with the C64 because the SID only has 3 channels so the end result felt slightly empty. I've heard sick breaks on C64 though so it's just my lack of expertise, I'm sure a better SID composer can create tight breaks with the SID, along with other instruments.

>>105746678
>You just posted one of the best posts that this thread has seen in months.
I doubt that, but cheers if you liked it.

>>>/mu/126850960
ridiculous take because that was the state of the art by 2010 standards, the song is fine and you're complaining about production/mixing which is the opposite of the sentiment in pic related. the solution isn't to "sell out" and make "slop", you're supposed to make art by 2025+ standards but you just don't understand what is good music.

Not an argument, expectedly.

>>105764706
not an argument yourself, so you're really trying to say that the afrojak track has bad songwriting but in reality the songwriting is decent enough compared to most mainstream music (the music that you claim has masterful songwriting such that it dwarfs the significance of the production) and it's the production that's a bit ass by modern standards

How do I manage my time for music production while working a job?

if the beatles were given nothing but a focusrite scarlett interface and a couple of microphone, yeah sure they could probably demolish most AMATEURS, but in terms of reaching afrojak level of success, it's an asinine take that they wouldn't need any more investment in production, there are millions of people who have more or less dreamt of being a music star and plenty of people have tried, but very few people have invested seriously in studio equipment and such

>>105764763
No you retard, I'm saying that we don't care what you have to say because we know you're trolling and don't actually believe what you post.

>>105764900
fucking dipshit, your music sucks no matter how many years you put into practicing playing an instrument and songwriting, there are countless people like you who you are not even aware of, there are relatively few artists who become famous and successful because they have a label and producers backing them, and you're not making an honest attempt to make a proper attempt at producing something decent by 2025 standards, you delude yourself into thinking you just need to find the magic chord progression

>>105765183
>and you're not making an honest attempt to make a proper attempt at producing something decent by 2025 standards

don't buy midi hardware until you have an idea what sort of shit sound you want to make, as you should buy for a purpose. gear fags have rooms filled with gear they bought which wasn't what they needed and isn't used.

>>105764074
totally ignores the Dutch aspect of house/electronic music business. afrojack being dutch has more to do with his success than his music. he had 'ok' music at the right time and was a dutch person for the dutch execs to put on bills.
EDM didn't need good music, it just needed fresh music. it was all mixed and mastered well to sound good regardless of the song, arrangement, performance or gear. it just needed a buildup and a drop and the record label would do the rest.

the music business is a business but no one here knows anything about it, so you argue over plugins and cables and irrelevant nonsense.
afrojack is rich and famous because he was and is a charismatic dutch guy who looks good in photos and the dutch people organising half of the EDM industry knew of him and liked him.

>>105767251
there are lots of dutchfags in hardstyle as well, most of their tracks are mega cringe but it kinda works for people who just want to go to festivals and party

>>105753866
No just multiple options

>>105766498
>peak crab bucket mentality
Where?
Is is just the argument with chuzo lol

>>105767251
In the chance that you're not Chuzo, EDM was insanely popular in the Netherlands even in those days, and signed Dutch producers were really a dime a dozen, even in respected labels like Spinnin, Ultra, etc. and very few of them made it anywhere close to where Afrojack got, both in EDM and in pop.
Sure he had appeal and everything, but a good chunk of his competition did too, and at the time making it as an EDM producer/DJ wasn't that contingent on your presentation. A lot of popular DJs at the time, who got the same opportunities as Afrojack weren't really attractive or charismatic at all.
For example one of the biggest names of 2009/2010 was Wolfgang Gartner, who looks like pic related, comes from the US (which didn't have a fraction of the scene the Netherlands had), and is on record saying that in his first gigs he was so nervous he couldn't place the needle on the disc from how hard his hands were shaking.

Besides, Afrojack having those advantages doesn't negate what I'm saying because if he came up today with everything exactly as it was back in the day (same looks, presence, music, etc) he wouldn't go anywhere specifically because his music isn't up to today's standard.

>>105767695
Then for the next vote, if there isn't a clear winner, you should do runoff votes, eliminating the least popular choice. The winner should have to clear 50%

>>105770934
try /prod/ i've been boycotting it for over a month

>>105770934
have you seen /dpt/

I am thinking about buying some music gear. It's not easy because there are several possible avenues. I'm not super strapped for cash but I don't want to buy everything only to have it sit in a pile unused. I want to make each new piece of gear deliberate.

Right now I have an electric guitar, a full size digital piano, midi keyboard + computer and audio interface and a mic.

I have made both idm/dnb/breakcore things as well as ambient stuff and also slowcore and shoegaze music. In Renoise and Ableton.

Part of the reason I want to buy something new is because the chance came up to play music together with some other people. What kind of music we will play is still up in the air, but I have a feeling that I will have to have a kind of leading role for us to succeed.

Ideally I would bring a laptop with a DAW to brainstorm things together, but I don't have a strong laptop like that and I feel like it would be a waste to buy one just for this.

I have a feeling that some groovebox type thing could work nicely for this situation, but all the options are overwhelming. Elektron Digitone/Digitakt look cool and they would also be giggable in the future, but just a bit more money gets a Synthstrom Deluge that looks far more capable overall, especially on the composing side.

Another wildly different idea I have is to get a bass guitar. I think studying bass could make my stuff more groovy, and it's very different to play bass lines on strings than inputting with keys. The downside is that it's a big instrument that wouldn't combine so well with my guitar or piano in a solo live act (I would need to be putting down and picking up the bass constantly or playing it laid out on the table). I feel like it would level up my songwriting though, and in the group play environment I could facilitate playing nicely if I could lay down nice grooves on the fly.

I feel like I am in a bit of a rut and maybe spicing things up with something new could help me get motivated again.

>>105771145
I got a pbass end of last year, it sounds so much better than any virtual bass plugin and it way more fun. I've already written some cool basslines with it and it's helped me see the rhythm section in a different light. I'd recommend getting a bass. I don't play live or in a band, however.

>>105771145
>>105771611
Do you use a physical amp? For a bass I think you're gonna want one even if you never play live and it makes practice more fun.

>>105771745
>For a bass I think you're gonna want one even if you never play live
Bass is more often recorded as a DI actually, with a bit of compression and EQ.

this does nothing but reaffirm what I just said.
Bass IS more often recorded DI

>>105771873
You can do without an amp it's just my preferece, it's easier to control the levels coming into the interface when it's already compressed by the amp. Also I never really used a good software amp before but an anon suggested some plugins a couple threads ago so I should try that.

>>105771897
who dis foid?

>>105771873
more often according to who, if you get more selective about the top tier successful stuff i bet a good chunk of it uses amps. DIs are overrepresented on youtube just like plugins because it caters to the lowest common denominator viewers.

>>105771951
according to the very video you linked, dumbass

a lot of the newer bands are secretive about their production, and of course the classics will lean heavily on physical gear

You need to make it a routine and set aside designated time for it.
I'm struggling trying to work my 50 hours, play music [instruments], make music, learn Japanese, and exercise ... but I fell off my routine and everything is fucked.

there's a computer related song i made a long time ago, it's technically cheating to put past releases in but it's not like we'll get enough submissions anyway. i'll post it soon

I want to move past ableton live lite, but the price tag of the suite is a bit high. what DAWs are you guys using? How much have you spent on plugins, esp guys using reaper or other cheap/free daws? Im very conflicted on where to go from here, but have been really feeling the limitations lately and want to upgrade

>>105772739
Suite is overrated as long as you have third party plugs. I got an upgrade from Lite to Standard on Thomann on black Friday last year for $138 USD.
...still haven't installed it yet, but that's my problem.

>>105772575
holy fuck

>>105772739
I would recommend Reaper.
For plugins I have pirated Fabfilter

>>105772961
>>105772739
whoops I clicked post accidentally.
Fabfilter has good effects but the synths can be lacking - you don't always want Twin 3's clean sound so I have both Repro and Serum which i have legit licenses for. I don't use Serum much because it's buggy on linux but it's a great plugin otherwise.
With Repro you can get a rich "analog" sound without much effort.

>>105772987
>I don't use Serum much because it's buggy on linux but it's a great plugin otherwise.
Why not just use Vital? That has a native Linux version, right?

>>105773011
i didn't try Vital but i don't like their website

Title: Beep Bop Boop It's Yo Boi The Rapping Computer (feat. Computer and Mightypaw)

>be me
>12 years old
>mucking around between lessons with my friend
>playing with this app called Autorap
>one of us has the bright idea to let the computer do the rapping
>place phone next to speaker and open ease of access center on the teacher's computer
>wait for the computer to narrate all the options
>friend says "yo yo yo it's yo boi computer, beep bop boop"
>stop recording
And then I used my shitty FL studio skills to extend the song - you can hear the splice where the beat doesn't align lol.

boychan is a britbong. hours align.

>>105773305
Also a funny prank i remember is enabling the narrator. Nobody including the teacher knew how to turn that off so they would just mute the speakers instead lmao

They made this in 2000 when they were only 22. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=9NZZOWC1YJQ&pp=0gcJCfwAo7VqN5tD What hope is there if you’re already in your late 30’s? It’s fucking over.

I've been looking at the Behringer X Touch and control surfaces in general. Do they actually speed up workflow or is it just one of those "looks professional" gadgets?

If he's a britbong, what was he doing up at 5am?

Being a degenerate neet

>>105775136
neets don't get up at 5am, they get up at 11

>>105775215
Neets get up and go to sleep whenever
It's almost random

this

what are good monitors under 1k? just used hs8? the rest seems expensive but used yamaha hs8 are readily available

>>105776967
none of them are that great, but there's no point in spending much money on monitors if you don't have a treated room

>>105778136
yes i look forward to gassing myself with formaldehyde but first i need the monitors and measurement mic.

>>105778343
the whole dilemma is you really need big drivers to hear low end right, but that shit is expensive. therefore you buy mediocre poorfag stuff and then mix check on as many different systems as you can. i used to be able to play shit on venue speakers, but i don't have that luxury anymore

>>105778648
As long as you keep that in mind, it's still much better than nothing
