ok sorry oldfren

so lads im trying to experiment with reverb to create wider sounds on my guitar instead of it sitting directly in the centre and no depth. any strats you can recommend? ive checked out a few videos, but if someone has discovered something on their own, id be pleased to hear it.

it's the big convolution tail and a segrit high tech parallel compreshun technique now waow

nice, drums sound great love the snare. What did you use for your drum mix?
B section sounds great as well, I think my only nitpick is that it returns back to the A section without any transition or buildup.

oops sry again ! (supercharger (GT) is another best fren :0)

You should make 4x4 bassline it’s a way cooler genre than brostep

I'm gonna have to retrack most of this, but here's my current progress after studying a bit.

>>126841564
reverb too wet (especially on vocals and guitar)

>>126841737
Yeah you're right, I tried a version with it dialed down a bit and it sounds better.
I wanna find a zone where it's not too much but still sounds kinda dreamlike or spacey.

>>126842266
>I wanna find a zone where it's not too much but still sounds kinda dreamlike or spacey.
You could try:
>(very) long reverb tail, but low wet mix
or
>gated/sidechained reverb, with the tail cutoff on each new note so it's less "mushy"

>>126842280
Thanks for the suggestions.
So far yeah I kept the tails really long but turned down the wet mix. I think I will experiment with a gated reverb next time I work on it.

big synths are the best
get high all the time
my tracks always start out really unqiue but i end up following the same formula every time :')

trying to polish up this old track how my guitar tones sounding

https://voca.ro/11EL6SnWRhWb

Which drum machine has the most POWERFUL handclap?

>>126844169
had to turn it up to hear, but the mix sounds pretty good to me. Constant cymbal gets a bit annoying after a while, maybe lower it a bit.
guitar(?) @2:00 feels a bit off/thin, might be because it's panned and feels quieter & less impactful than I'd expect, although if this is for a song with a vocal sitting in the center it's probably fine. Could double track it tho I suppose?

>>126844249

How often do you train your production skills? Is it everyday?

>>126845659
Yes dummy

>>126838357
>>126840153
Thank you.

>>126845659
Yes im currently unemployed so I would LIKE to do it 8 hours a day but I keep getting distracted and my computer struggles with the daw so I only do 2-3 hours
“Practicing” producing is hard it’s not like guitar or piano where you can just drill songs and scales

>>126845659
most months I don't produce anything at all
so only in short bursts

>local DJ makes instagram post asking for remixes in the genre that i make
>send my remix

oh my gooood what a bitch

>>126845911

>>126845911
yeah that was definitely a call to people she knows and established artists but god damn lmao

>>126845724
yeah it's defs difficult to know what exactly you should be practicing at any moment.

(for me) "drilling" constitutes transcribing and remaking tracks, learning new plugins, batch writing parts, systematically doing sound design, reading manuals and coming up with dumb challenges or specific approaches .
also speed writing songs but some people don't like that answer lmao

the difference between 1hr vs 6hrs practice a day isnt that much but the difference between 0hr vs 1hr is guge
sorry, *huge

>>126847193
>I probably did listen to it but I only had negative things to say.
I'd rather hear negative feedback than nothing at all, personally.

>>126847236
But what if it's not constructive, or essentially just tells you to throw your song in the garbage?

>>126847253
Honestly, I'd still take it. Worst case scenario, I scrap it and focus my efforts on another mix.

https://youtu.be/RlvosrPZPFo?si=C6nEytymxXOvjVfv
fucking HELL

I was listening to a group called dalek, specifically this song of theirs,
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sp2LrTePjkI
Really kickass, and I fed it through a bpm analysis page and it says 93bpm. That doesn't sound or feel right, but I know nothing about production yet. Is this really 93bpm? Skip to 1 minutes 23 seconds. I'd love to make some darker techno at this speed.

i've been a mac cringe logic user for the longest time but am starting to transition to solely PC usage for my music shit. which daw is the least cringe and gay? i will not use pro tools fuck off. mostly guitar-based shit like shoegaze but i'm diverse in my genres and am interested in branching out to more electronic shit as well in the future

In 2010 Afrojak became world famous with this song, which by today's standards is amateurish at best
https://youtu.be/adGVpCsf9N4
(he was already well known in the scene, with even worse songs)
Then went on to make more generic EDM trash and become one of the world's top EDM DJs/producers (currently worth around $50M), going on to date Paris Hilton and marrying the granddaughter of Ferruccio Lamborghini.
Would he have made it today? Most likely not. He took the opportunity that was available to him at that time (lower bar and less competition) to succeed before it became too hard.
The same can very well apply to us right now. There's a good chance that in 10 years it will be much harder to make it than now, possibly harder than it would be for 2010's Afrojack to make it today, and we're just wasting an opportunity that we're not seeing yet.
So the moral of the story is:
Stop trying to make art. The sooner you sell out and make it by any means necessary, the better off you'll be.
You can make art later, or just quit music altogether once your success gives you better things to do with your time (like playing with your billionaire wife's massive titties).

>>126850107

>stuck in a 8bar loop again
ahhhhhhhhhh

https://voca.ro/1njKms1vhClh

>>126851947
Just make it a 16 bar loop retard

>>126851952
then i'm stuck in a 16 bar loop

>>126851955
What if you stretched it into a 256 bar loop?
You'd have a full song then, no?

>>126851955
just don’t make it loop it’s literally that easy

>>126851947
>render out the bassline
>import it into your preferred sampler
>mess with its pitch and timing
instant ideas. Alternatively, if it's easier in this context, mess with the bassline MIDI sequence until you get something. If you're a theoryfag I could talk music theory ideas to change it up, but ultimately you just need to force the bassline to move somewhere else then shape the rest around the change.

>loops
it's all just building and releasing tension bro

It’s easy to write melodies and chord progressions but to write ANOTHER melody or chord progression that complements the first one while being different is very hard

>>126851994
It’s easy actually git gud

yeah

https://voca.ro/12pZmZ3qRV4D

>>126851947
>>126851980
your bassline is playing an Ab minor, so if we assume a key of A minor, you could move down to the E major and down again to Db minor to make a progression out of that, a bit like:
https://vocaroo.com/1cIk565Gi7fA
(Abm -> E6 -> Dbm)
The last 2 notes have an late/triplet feel, and are used to smooth out the loop. You could also change the last couple notes a bit to pivot elsewhere, like:
https://vocaroo.com/11aDQJgITEbD
at 0:07 it moves to a new progression with the F# -> Abm -> Dbm -> E -> F# -> Abm
These are just a couple quick ideas. When in doubt with basslines, mess around with 5ths, octaves, and minor/major thirds (depending on the current chord). You can shape a whole song from a half-decent bassline tbqh.

TL;DR (if you wanna keep it simple): decide your song is in Ab minor then fuck around with the Ab minor scale until you find something cool.
>>126852476
very cool
kick might be a bit loud
I'd give the piano a bit more movement rather than sticking to like 2 chords

>>126852535
>so if we assume a key of A minor
should say Ab minor

Ngl I still don't understand sidechaining in Massive X, and I don't understand why they made it so fucking weird.

Nobody cares if you use samples and or loops from the same pack.

>>126854013
First of all, that's not at all the point you were making above so let's take a moment to acknowledge your goalpost-moving and lack of balls to admit that you were wrong on an anonymous imageboard.

Second, even this point is retarded, because it's not relevant to the point I'm making.
Sure you can theoretically have a niche sound and become somewhat successful with it with the right image (the hot girl trick was already commonplace LONG before Afrojack was even born), but:
1- Any niche/underground sound that the masses will accept is already pretty mainstream.
2- You still have to make it somewhat palatable to the masses, otherwise your successful will be severely limited and not even close to "actually famous" levels.
3- Statistically, this is still very unlikely, exactly the way it was in 2010 (the year in which brostep, a way weirder genre than anything mainstream, became massive worldwide and opened everyone up to electronic music in general). You're still much less likely to become world-famous with a niche genre than you are with a mainstream one even accounting for the difference in competition, unless you sell out like I said in the first post and alter it so it's more palatable to mainstream tastes.

It's undoubtedly harder to make it today than in 2010, both because there's so much more competition, and because the bar for quality is much higher for a number of reasons, so my point is that much like it's gotten harder in the past 15 years, it will likely continue to get harder (the trend seems to be going up, and the introduction and certain future development of AI tools make me pretty confident in my prediction) so we should feel motivated to shift our focus towards finding success, rather than towards making something with "artistic merit".
Even if what you said was true, by using a hot girl as the frontwoman of your act you, quoting verbatim, "sell out and make it by any means necessary".

TLDR:
Everything you said is retarded in every way

There are upsides too, but the downsides aren't worth it, and certainly not something you can just solve with a different mindset, WTF?

there's still people making music? what's even the motivation? nobody cares to listen, nobody cares to buy. literally useless hobby.

>>126855300
hmm more bounce is generally better
the other bassline was a bit more "happier"
i'll switch it around and see if it still works i guess

you could keep the same note timing/lengths, and just shift the pitch around to keep the "bounce" but with a different bass melody.

>>126858309
I got filtered by Reaper's default UI. Yeah, it's customizable to your liking but as a musician/songwriter it's a PITA to use - but I can see why mixing/mastering engineers may really like Reaper, I do miss the one-click delta solo feature, but I hated the menu-diving and some of its bizarre default behavior. I can't remember any specifics as it's been ages since I even touched Reaper.

I tried out various DAWs over the years (ProTools a long time ago, Logic Pro, Reaper, Reason, Cubase, FL, Ableton Live) but Cubase just kinda clicked in spite of its jankiness. I like its MIDI features, audio editing workflow (which is similar to ProTools), arranging tools, and the chord detection & chord track feature is a godsend to me as I'm still learning guitar - I can strum anything, it'll recognize the chord, convert it to a chord track, which can then be converted into MIDI immediately and in 2 clicks I can make that use alternate chord voicing to provide my own backing track to jam on. I've only been using Cubase for about a year, but its MIDI tools & composition features are nuts, it helps to know theory fundamentals to use some of it properly tho. I also really like the autistic extent of project versioning you can do - mix snapshots, A/B on each plugin by default, presets out of quite literally anything, etc.. The "Media Bay" is beyond autistic if you dig into it, and don't get me started on the Project Logical Editor...

On top of that, it has most core features I liked from other DAWs (like "Capture MIDI" from Ableton/FL, pitch correction (Variaudio), linked MIDI pattern sequencing (like FL), etc...). Biggest downside by far tho is the UI takes some learning, it isn't as intuitive as other DAWs and is not beginner-friendly.

TL;DR - I like to compose (predominantly via MIDI as a keys player), and Cubase does that best (imo) while still having solid audio editing. It works for the styles of music I make.

nice, I love the drums and faint guitar swells in the background. Production on it sounds really good, but I think it needs something to provide harmonic context, even some high strings or an organ sitting in the back of the mix would do - could be used to provide extra tension.

>>126849829
it's 93 and this isn't techno mate.

>>126864871
If you're inexperienced or of struggling to complete every stage of a song (writing, producing and mixing) the only way to improve is to push through all of that, so you should.

If that's not an issue then you should use your own judgement and think about why that last 20% or polishing needs to be done and what you're getting out of it.

I can't sing, so I never truly finish any song and only ever get the instrumental mix complete.

>>126865164
now imagine if you tried singing on every song you've done and how much you would have improved

>>126836599 (OP)
Sought this out from the Bread from yesterday. Heres some Hardware Jungle.

I'll poast moar later.

be honest mu, anyone playing around with AI anywhere in their workflow lately?

Another WIP, All these Samples are on the Akai S3000XL and are being triggered by the amiga 500.

>>126865554
just for cover art and song titles

This one is all on the Amiga 500

panning feels too extreme on headphones in the intro.
the whispering vocals section clashes with other frequencies so it's hard to hear the voice, but at 0:47 its fine (although the hihat is still annoying). the double tracking is a good touch.
1:13 whatever that japanese sounding thing is fits nicely.
not a bad instrumental at the end although sometimes i don't know what to pay attention to - your goal as the mixer is to guide the listener through the track.
overall the mix could do with some more analog-sounding saturation (this is a point chuzo makes but he does it in the most insufferable way possible).

>>126865771
why so triggered over an innocent question my man. did your mkultra programming get triggered by the letters ai?

>>126865815
i'm not triggered. i simply told you to kill urself, and not even in minecraft

>>126865873
what would cause such hate in your heart over a total stranger based on a question? seems like a you issue

If I'm having any type of problem I describe it to ChatGPT and it helps me solve it.
Here's a video of me doing it with my latest track:

don't talk to me with that hairline, bet you weren't even born in the twenty-first century of our lord and saviour Jesus Christ, lmao. your cock is all shrivelled up from gooning five times a day to 1girl prompts. You sold your frontal lobe to elon musk so he can make neuralink experiments with it just so you can afford more AI credits since the NEETbucks weren't enough.

Are you working on some old apple computer from the early 2000's?

>basedchan feeding the trolls as usual
this is why I don't like you.

>>126866362
LOL. Kinda. Is that a Problem for you?

Only listening to music while doing something else is the ultimate sign of NGMI

>>126866407
I don't know if I can play those files, but that's a cool setup and neat music.

>>126867170
Okay

Been working on my piano skillz obv this is the quantized midi
>https://voca.ro/1iSH4qXwj6bi

>>126868590
sounds decent anon, though maybe a little boring. the middle section starting from 0:50 is good

>>126868590
Nice. The velocity is a little too hard

>>126868239
Are you Demarcus?

>>126868698
>>126868689
Thanks anons I will keep working on it.

>>126868590
sounds sequenced rather than performed, if you performed this on keys yourself then it's way too quantized and velocity is too hard as another anon said.
Composition idea is good tho

>listening to demos from six months ago
wow im the goat
>listening to my current tracks
wow this sucks im a retard with 0 creativity or skill

>>126871254
hey man that happens creativity ebbs and flows. i still think my best song is from 2021

How do I make a bass sound like this? Starts at 1:04

>>126864270
>it's 93
Thank you.
>and this isn't techno mate
No I know, but nothing in the techno I'm surrounded by in my city sounds that heavy or dark, which is something I'd like to tap into.

I wanna make chill ambient jazz stuff like the Lazarus sound track but my brain is to smol

:c

>>126874197
Have you considered listening to lots of jazz and practicing?

WAIT… you make beats in your bedroom?!! Why didn’t anyone tell me about this kid he makes BEATS in his BEDROOM!!!!

>>126875063
I can only attempt to be proficient at so many genres, sadly.

i've taken to only using stock fl studio stuff (i know next to zero about mixing and mastering)

hopefully its not giving sonic chronicles: the dark brother ost vibes

>>126850960
Figures that a creature like you would also think those are "massive."

I had the inverse of this

>progressively start adding in jazz/swing samples
>add swing to original beat

>working towards making something like Foetus (ie jazz industrial)
>this is fucking sick
>drop it for a few months
>listen to it last week while sending out current WIP's to guy I've collaborated with
>it sounds like fucking garbage made with GarageBand loops

>>126875750
Brother you really need to read this
https://files.catbox.moe/26n8f8.pdf

>>126875271
that lead plucky synth is kinda grating to listen to, and may be too loud as well. Bass could be a little louder. The bell-like (I assume FM synth) sounds ok, but can make things feel a bit busy when it's playing faster notes legato like @0:13. Try to control your legato to better fit the groove.

>>126865554
I put some of my unfinished tracks into suno to try and flesh them out, most of it was bad, some of it was incredible. I won't be directly using any of the output but will use it as reference/inspiration

>>126875997
>he just has this ready to shill to people
lmao

>>126865554
Only for sampling some of the really bizarre sounds that come out of shittier AI.
I fundamentally dislike the idea of using AI anywhere in the workflow. Without sounding too preachy, I enjoy the process way more than just having a finished product and AI directly contradicts that. I feel like anyone who uses AI for their art never really wanted to make art in the first place, they just wanted to have a pretty thing to attach their name to.

>>126876066
I had to download it and reupload it because the domain is blacklisted or something and can't be posted

>>126849664
I like the part where he says stuff

i never used to use compression on the master or any of the later busses and now i can't stop slamming in parallel fuck

captcha:RRATA(TA-TA-TA)

>>126876026
https://voca.ro/1lICFiv8JVgt

how about this? i changed the pluck thing a bit and then i reduced the decay on the other synth, and then panned both of them a bit to opposite ends

>>126876587
definitely better (and listenable now, lol)
0:55 -> 1:33 drums feel out of place at this part and a bit too aggressive, consider softer hits and/or lowering their volume here (or maybe a different drum or perc playing the backbeat?)
Keep practicing anon. Use references and take breaks from listening so you don't get ear fatigue.

>>126865771
Thanks for the feedback
I made some changes, decreased the cymbals a bit and increased the kick punch, also I decreased the mid frequencies of the organ and rhodes

I just record shit on my phone and like the way it sounds but I also may be deeply autistic and I don't think anyone even close to likes the shit I make besides me
