Did you know you can just let arpeggiators do all the work for you?

programming the right rhythms and patterns take a lot of time

i just press the mutate button until it's good

>>106559346
Speaking of, is there a preset randomizer for some workhorse synth? (Zebra, Pigments, Current, etc. not Serum though I don't have it (overrated shit lol)) In some cases I feel it would be quicker to hit randomize a bunch of times than preset browsing

>>106559507
can't you just make a widget that randomizes specific parameters of a specific synth on unableton?

>Fruity Loops

Album theme idea:
>Incel Vocal Trance

Can get the vocals from sampling incel rants on YT, or record your own
Here's an example, the lyrics are kind of incel-ish

Thoughts on the new Airpod Pro 3s for producing?

>>106565338
why would you do that to yuorself

>>106566104
It's what people will be listening to your song on.

does native instruments really think its userbase is this retarded

>>106567703
yes lol

>>106567703
I think its userbase is

You poorfags still pretending to make music with Ableton? Pathetic.

With all the money you wasted on GPUs for your lame AAA nu-gaymes you could have a real project studio going. But nope. You bought e-waste.

>>106570173

Imagine thinking that this is a worthwhile way to spend your time.

>>106556626 (OP)
How is this still a hobby after AI.

>>106572763
because you're ignorant and a retard, and don't practice this hobby, your job is to just demoralize.

>>106572763
current AI will never ever replace anything

how do i fight the crippling anxiety that what i just wrote is just someone else's melody/motif pulled from the recesses of my memory

>>106574273
better that than what I have, which is just random soundwank from the depths of chaos

>>106572763
Why didn't you ask AI instead?

i love it, i tried something today that might interest you: https://minuit.am/
has a 30 days trial

>>106575748
that does look pretty fun, but since i'm on linux it'd be a pain to use

>>106574273
But it would be from your subconscious, because from your memory you'd... remember, wouldn't you?

>>106559006
I thought music would be a good hobby and while I have made good progress on piano and guitar, on the producing side I have been at it for two years and a half and all I have to show for it are a handful of mediocre 8 or 16 bar loops. I think I just don't have it in me to compose and produce original music. When I try to critically listen to a multilayered song I enjoy to try to understand it I can't even get close to copying the sounds on my synths and I can't begin to understand how they managed to put together so many sounds and melodies at the same time and manage to make it sound like a beautiful wall of sound instead of a muddy dissonant mess. In this regard I'm like a monkey pondering how humans made those big buildings in front of his cage. No matter how much he wonders he'll never grasp it. I'm quick at picking up instruments and I also mixed some songs and they came out nicely. I suppose I have to accept I don't have the creativity or the mind of an artist, my strengths are definitely more practical or mechanical. I'm pretty bummed about it though.
Thanks for reading my blog

>>106577062
you cant depend on your dna to magically know how to do complicated shit, challenge yourself to make a whole song from start to finish as fast as you can with minimal instrumentation then do it a few times again before coming back to it to fuck around with layering, get used to making a whole song and the creative parts of your brain will get used to being creative in the middle of working on it

trance

>>106577386
Ok I gotta admit that those loops never get turned into full songs because they are never "good enough" but you are like the third person that tells me the same thing and just finish the damn song so I'm going to push with that, thanks for your input anon

>>106577062
>>106577386
it's a matter of desire, good shit comes from the deep desire to realise something you hear in your soul and want to come out. Most musicians are performers since they already have what they want to hear written by someone else anyway.

>>106578079
its like building a house, you tried to make the perfect window and wonder why theres no roof or front door lol

>>106577662
1 min in, pretty good so far, starts off a bit sudden though
2 min in, getting a bit too repetitive for trance
3 min in, the new sounds are pretty good, though probably could have been introduced earlier with more progressive variations
4 min in, uh... you call that a breakdown section?
5 min in, the sound after your little "drop" was good
ending was fine, though could have eased out of it a bit more gradually

Overall, pretty good, needs a breakdown to really be trance though. There is a feeling of progression throughout, but could be a bit more... idk what word to use... organized, I guess. Felt a bit random, not like it was building up to something

>>106577662
better trance
https://vocaroo.com/153TkXXPaJ31

>>106580422
not really trance

>>106580422
the other one >>106577662 did a better job emulating 90s trance instrumentation, this sounds more like electro to me and the tempo is too low by like half

bamp bamp

>>106561173
need subtitles for this shit

Why Most People Use Sequencers Wrong?

>>106586388
I miss Yahoo Answers.

>>106586540
I just ask Jeeves.

who the fuck keeps obsessing over troonce? Like yeah yeah we had the theme already but someone just won't stfu about it? It's a mid genre that existed and disappeared similar to dubstep fad because it is a fad and not something meant to endure. It's too simple to be considered art and too repetitive to grow and innovate.

>>106556626 (OP)
I'm trying to cr*ck Bitwig but it's obfuscated as hell ¿Any advice chuds?

We got like maybe 10% of dmp users who could actually innovate and understand music while the rest are a bunch of "le babbys first rebellious musician" zoomers who never heard real music and try to frootiger faggaero themselves into being "trendy" by obsessing over obsolete themes and genres such as trance and dubstep.

You fucking disgust me, go listen to some jazz or at the very least some classical if you want good base to start with. Listening to shit will yield more shit.

>>106589430
>10%
I bet less than 2% have ever even tried DJing which btw is a non negotiable skill

>>106589430
Trance is making a comeback
It will be the next superbowl half time show probably

>>106589588
no it's not, it's just zoomers salivating over a period of time they never ever going to experience. It's pretty much the driving force behind anything gen z does.

>>106589711
millennials had their moment with vaporware now it's zoomies turn to bring back late 90s nostalgia they never experienced like millennials did with 80s

fucking nauseating

good selection

Some inspiration for pirate music. Idk why but I was thinking of this TV show the other day. It was kind of an underwhelming show...
https://youtu.be/XFTcA4QLHw0
Idk exactly what instrument sounds they were using in the intro, but it does sounds kinda pirate

70% of that 2% think djing is using mp3 controllers from pioneer

>>106589405
Have you listened to trance over the past 30 years? I mean like tracks from different periods? There's been a lot of evolution and it continues to grow. It's making a comeback because everyone is realizing it's one of two ideal templates for dance music. (the other being house)
