workin on this

not sure where to take it

can't really tell how well the mixdown is as i left headphones inna di yard
>>
>>47840511
just in case you didn't see what i just said in the other thread:
'motherfucker this is shit hot
try and integrate some distorted 808 kicks in there maybe
just something dutty
either way post in here when you're done because i want to be listening to it'
>>
>>47840511
yeah, very good track IMO. i def can tell what sound youre going for.

honestly? mix is good. no real criticisms.
>>
>>47840599
Not that guy but

>what sound youre going for

What kind of sound is that?

I'm intrigued, it sounded quite good but I can't put my pin on it.

What artists are similar?

Good song so far btw

Sorry I'm new to this
>>
>>47840647
sounds like special request bruv
>>
>>47840713
Is that a good thing, ripping off someones style? Or is it an homage kind of thing?

Special Request is great
What breaks does he even use (other than the amen and think)?

I can barely recognise the others

Like this track?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9P4reNoK9LU&feature=kp

I can hear the amen crash at the end of 4th bar but what is it with all the shakers/triangles/shuffly shit?

Surely not the think break?
>>
>>47840647
IMO sounds very in-tune with the current UK bass continuum - stuff like Night Slugs, Hessle, Swamp 81, etc. just check out each label on Discogs and youll find something you like.

>>47840753
i look at it as homage unless its EDM in which no homage can really be paid. its such a gross industry/musical genre that it all feels like theft at the end of the day.

heres so many breaks...who knows.

http://rhythm-lab.com/breakbeats
>>
>>47840753
the shakers are definitely the think
to be fair to him think is the best break
obvs credit to the amen for its influence but i stand by what i say
i'm fairly sure he did one tune with funky drummer
>>
anon that posted the track earlier here

i love using the think break because i can cut it up so that the "snare and the shaker roll" lines up to 1.5 beats, with other breaks i find it hard trying to quantise them to fit either on a half beat or a full beat.

yeah...the Tempest is on my dream list, as is the Prophet 12 and now the goddamn Pro 2.

i really like the Mono Evolver, though. the keyboard version is even more fun to use.

tl;dr need more money
>>
>>47841079
Yeah, the first time I seriously debated selling my Minimoog was when the Pro 2 was revealed.

I don't want to be a beta tester for the Tempest though.
>>
>>47841111
i have a friend who was a "demo" box and, aside from it not powering on once in a while, works perfectly he said.

uh oh, does quads mean I have to sell it or keep it?
>>47841130
I've just heard the typical DSI complaint of bugs in the OS, as well as not receiving midi CCs or something basic like that.
>>
>>47841161
quads means dump your whole studio and buy a BeatKangz

and ya DSI stuff is pretty much all software on the inside aside from the signal path. its buggy sometimes, but its a shop of 5-6 people including Dave Smith himself. they do things that other companies straight up can't or won't do, so i tend to cut him some slack. that being said, i clearly do not own any of his gear yet.

>>47841600
long story short:

been browsing 4chan since 2007. creeped in /mu/ and disliked it a great deal until i discovered the /bleep/ threads

loved the bleep threads, decided to start posting under a trip - mainly because i like having to think before i post and going under an identity forces me to not be a dick / try and be as productive as possible
>>
>>47841634
nothing that would make you stoked TBH

Pittsburgh Modular Synth Block + Hex Inverter vcNoiz + Dopefer Moog-style LPF

tape deck is a standard, 3-head, pro-sumer level deck
>>
>>47841663
Do you intend on getting other synth voice blocks? Like the doepfer or cjweman ones? It seems like an efficient way to build a polyphonic modular voice.
>>
>>47841694
i bought the PGH one because it was $299 - how can you beat that price for what you get? it sounds great, too. all the PGH stuff has some legit edge IMO - will be buying up most of it including the delay

i would fucking love the Cjweman stuff especially their synth voice. expensive as fuck
>>
>>47841804
I don't think I'll ever go cjweman unless I get ludicrously rich.

Hey guys, I've been postin this around a bit and I was just wondering if i could get some feedback on the 808's, specifically whether or not they sit well, if there are any freq's that need cutting/boosting, etc.

Thanks!
>>
>>47842658
feels a bit too intense in the low mids, but the 808 def hits fairly hard. id say you could leave it and most people wouldnt mind

the waveform looks mastered and the 808 kick is literally the most upfront sound, so id say it all sits well. IMO focus on the relationship b/w the kick + the nice pad/chord you have in the background. feel like that element is what makes the track special and could stand to come up

all in all, nice work. quality work posted so far today

>>47842658
i think it all sounds fine mate. if anything everything is too perfect if that makes any sense

>>47844655
i have a feeling its missing some substantial low end...i generally try to not overload my tracks - i had a lead in there, just couldn't get it to fit right

bounced this to tape and, aside from pitching it down slightly because the record head is wonky, the mix is filled out a bit more.

>>47845198
going to give this a listen after im done recording this bounce...
>>
>>47844893
>http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/dec06/articles/livetech_1206.htm
thanks!!!!!
>>
>>47845422
It's not missing any low end, unless you wanted to make something really cheesy.

You just need something to carry a melody. It doesn't need to solo, or do any of that endless wandering crap people do with leads.
>>
>>47845568
I also feel like that filter sweep at the end needs to come back to the tonic, unless it's supposed to lead into the next track, it makes it feel like it hasn't ended, but it did anyways.
>>
>>47845568
no, it must be my monitors then. listened on headphones and sounded okay. bounced it to tape, like the mix more as i typically do.

youre kind of pointing out what i consider to be my biggest flaw/greatest source of anxiety in production - STRUCTURE

the idea, for this particular project, is to try and /not/ focus on traditional dance music arrangements - ideally, not focusing on programming melodies and stuff like that. primarily because i feel theres a lot of that that already exists and there are producers who feel an inherent urge to produce melody/traditionally pleasing style of electronic music

tl;dr trying to focus more on capturing a moment/riff/vibe than crafting a perfect piece of music

you really dont have to read that all if you dont want to

So stoked right now. Finally found a power supply for my orig midiverb. Now I just need to head out to radioshack to pick up some rca adapters and then slam some synths through it. I made some esq-1 house esque pads and I think with the right amount of verb I'll have a weird unique sound.

Still on the to do:
Fix reel to reel
Fix midiverb 2
Stay cool all summer
>>
>>47842658
I love the 808 drive. It just gets you pumped like nothing else. Also cool use of XTAL. ONly thing I'd change if I knew how was make the snares snappier. They definitely need more his. My guess is that they aren't mixed well into the mix, but then again I'm a beginner so what the fuck do I know.

curious what some of you guys would think of this


https://soundcloud.com/badmangohda/big-l-flamboy4nt-gohdas-sound-bwoy-bureill-refix

i've always been kinda fascinated with bridging the gap between UK and american sounds...this is just a remix i did, not really the best of what i have to offer but more of an overall vision and snapshot....like a mixture of grime/dubstep and like 90s east coast hip hop/trip-hop

most of my friends and peers in america don't really listen to anything like this so i figured you guys might be a good place to get an opinion and feel

>>
>>47846980
vocals are clearly bootlegged - not a criticism, just an observation. sounds like you filtered too much on the low/mids

not bad at all - would suggest adding/changing some patterns in the 2nd part

all in all, def better than most bootlegs ive heard in recent times

How many times do I need to hound your ass about that r2r belt? When I get home I'll source one for you. What model is it?

do you think i should label it as a bootleg instead of a remix or refix or whatever?

thanks for the feedback btw... that was just sort of something i did to show my friend (who's a rapper) to give him an idea of where i wanted to go with our music

Put together a small/minimal setup with cheap gear and have begun producing; does this sound finished enough to be released or should I wait until I get more gear so I can add to it?

Also, would this make a decent cover? So far all the people I've shown it to have been on the fence about all the black but liked it otherwise.

I want to make bleep but i have no idea where to start and no experience what so ever, where do i start?
>>
>>47848032
pirate FL studio and Ableton's Live

work with both of them (not at the same time)

learn how subtractive synthesis works

learn how compressors and preamps work

when EQing, always cut before boosting
>>
>>47848032
Part of it starts with the desire to actually learn about the things involved with production, not just making music.
>>
>>47848160
I have the desire to learn about production too, but where's the best place to start?
>>
>>47848186
With trying.
>>
This is a very basic question, but..
All you need to make a decent sounding instrument is samples for C1, C2, C3 etc., right?
>>
I have trouble adding emotion or the emotions I want to songs
>>
>>47848186
honestly? theres no go-to guide for this kind of thing. the best thing you can do is go to youtube and look up producers you love and try and research how they did it.

or, go to school for it which is what i did.
>>
>>47848374
Uhh, most samplers change the pitch to scale up and down a keyboard. If it has a simple enough waveform it's no problem.

What you're talking about is a sample bank, which is for thing like pianos or other samples that would sound weird by stretching them out or shortening them (to change pitch).

Even then, that won't garuntee a good sound

How much music theory do you guys know?

This thread isn't so much about EDM, IDM, and other dance music, so much as it is about general production techniques, synthesis, and equipment involved in electronic music (ie, the electronics).

What constitutes bleep bloops or not is a matter for /bleep/ general to discuss.

>>
these threads were designed to talk, specifically, about production in relation to "bleep" music: techno, house, acid, and all of their offshoots/subgenres.

i dont see any point in eliminating IDM, breakcore, etc producers from the threads. same for EDM, really. the point is to not judge based on personal taste biases and help people produce music. i routinely mix music i dont like and i do the best i can because its important to someone.

that being said (and im not an authority here), i dont think this thread should go TOO into musical theory or classical music...nothing wrong with it, but these threads need to have focus to stay relevant.
>>
>>47853949
who's talking about classical music? lol
>>
>>47853949
>regarding theory
Ofc, somebody just brought that up from the left field.

>bleep
Hell, I hardly do anything that is considered bleep anymore. I feel like it's more of a stepping stone to bigger things. A great entry point for noobs willing to learn. That's why I like these threads, it gives me a chance to train young padawans.
>>
>>47853979
Somebody brought up theory. Also, quite a few people who come to these threads are classically trained.
>>
>>47854060
>2nd bleep production thread
I don't recall anyone talking about being classically trained in the last thread - I could be wrong, though.

also theory's not exclusive to classical music.
>>
>>47853979
no one (yet) - just making a point. theory is good and if someone wants/needs to know, they should be told if anyone knows how to answer

>>47854024
hm - going to disagree with you, there. ive played in bands for most of my life. although im not a classically trained musician, you cannot really say guitar music/music made with acoustic instruments is above/more complex than electronic music production.

if, by bigger things, you mean using your electronic music production to move into, say, game audio or music for film...i wouldn't disagree with you there at all. but if you mean learning electronic production as a stepping stone to playing "real music," i just don't see that.

>>47854060
yeah, and that rules. im not trained, so its good to know some of you are.

What does everybody think of the MFB Tanzbar? i've never talked with anybody who owns one and am wondering if it's worth it

>>47854155
i have a student that bought one and sold it a month later. said it was buggy, never worked right. he chose to get a TR-8 and TB-3 instead
>>
>>47854105
Not in the last threads, but older threads.
>>47854111
I didn't specifically mean geetar music, scoring, or any specific type of music. I just mean moving from derivative styles (house, techno, etc etc) that are firmly established, and moving towards a sound of your own.
>>
>>47854155
I would avoid MFB stuff. It breaks damn easy.
>>
>>47854251
sure, that makes sense. i think any producer eventually wants that.
>>
>>47854326
Yeah, I mean I have no problems producing anything like that, but it's not like I'm making great new strides either. Then again, I like working on things outside of my comfort zone.
>>
>>47854403
Any of y'all play mass effect? I love the soundtracks to those games, yet they seem super simple. It fits the mood very well.

But does anybody notice that vidya game music often works very well when it's simple?
>>
wp i remember you telling me that at RS.

but does MFB really have that poor of a reputation? idk maybe ableton push makes more sense for me RN
>>
have any of you even seen how awesome drum sequencing with ableton push is?
>>
>>47854527
Yes they do. Nearly across the board. They're like the behringer of synths and drum machines, only you can expect a behringer product not to fail as long as you don't abuse it.

I've heard some of their modular modules are alright, but nothing to write home about. Their drum machines are the ones that seem to fail the most often. Their synths are not as bad, but most seem kind of bland, considering they're all synth-on-a-chip type boxes.
>>
>>47854527

Way too special requesty to be it's own song to be honest, but sounds very nice still. I think you should have more rolling drums as you have at 1.10, or just use the breaks a bit more creatively.

Depends heavily on the sampler. Old ensoniq stuff, e-mu, had magical fucking pixies that could make a multisample with just a couple samples sound great. Newer stuff, especially software samplers, really just expect you to heavily multisample. I usually go every third semitone for plucked/struck/synthetic things and every note if something more natural. At least two velocity layers if it's going to be heard solo.
>>47852242
Cheap and cheerful stuff- RM1x, emu command stations, DX27/100, TX802/81z, Akai s-series (you can get flagships for nothing now), ensoniq ESQ/EPS. If you're patient and mindful you can get great stuff on the cheap. Some things have been hyped to the stratosphere and aren't worth it though, so watch out.

>>
>>47860744
>>47860756
I don't even understand how it's possible not to hear the flow in a track like that, but whatever. It's certainly not 'random' either, if anything it's a pretty strict dance rhythm. Just because it's 200+ BPM doesn't mean it's random.
>>
>>47860733
The QY700 he was using at the time almost lends itself to this. Tracker-style event list, extremely powerful job system and easy note entry make for quick work.

It's not my cup of tea but it's hardly random. Watch some modular wank videos with farts and burst generators if you want to see random.

if so, is it even affordable to get into production via hardware? AFAIK there was never an electronic music culture/history here, so we don't have 2nd hand shops full of gear on the cheap.

That the sound changes depending on how hard you struck the key.

A piano sounds different if you play softly or if you slam the key, etc.

So when you sample a piano, you record the same key striking that key soft and hard etc.

well put oatsycher, true generative =/= retards plugging weather.com into a $40,000 modular synthesizer and publishing whatever sort of bullshit comes out. if you're reinterpreting physical world phenomena as sound, you're not making pure music and ergo you're not doing it right

yeah if you head into it without a strong compass of what you want to hear and/or a clear understanding of what you aim to accomplish you're going to [very naturally] get dissociated from the music you're making, get caught up in the possibilities, and worst of all confuse ~interesting process for interesting product

i'd say not necessarily, you might only notice things that you like once you get in there, so to speak

pierre henry made this point pretty well in that documentary, he said (and i'm paraphrasing here from memory) that it was the act of selecting the sounds that he preferred that made the difference between mere sound and music
and i think i agree with him for the most part, it's an expression of taste, or discernment, or preference that makes something music and not just sound

if your lack of control over machinery responsible for ur tunes is this extreme your tue shit
>I mean, all music is generative.
exactly right. algorithmic composition means there's a system or a set of rules that's responsible for more or less all the moment to moment musical placement. most people are only comfortable with the standard paradigm where there's a human being directly responsible for placement of sound. ironically enough, artistic creation for most people are akin to systems anyways; byproducts of what they've heard, what they'rre influenced by, what they've liked and what they've haven't.
human beings totally suck as systems though: generally self-contradictory, inconsistent, and overall too sloppy, imprecise, and just way too complicated of generative entities. music is patterns and air pressure there's no room for that sort of 'beauty of the human experience' political horseshit in the purest distillation of music.

>it was the act of selecting the sounds that he preferred that made the difference between mere sound and music
making a [good] piece of music usually entails two distinct processes: creating a musical idea and deciding whether or not that idea is any good. and it works in only that order. in order to release a "good" musical idea to the world you "must always" ask yourself if it's any good or not

but from the listener's perspective the process of creation is not known, only the results from the process of selection/curation are all that the listener hears so why then should the musical ideas you wish to bring to the world be limited to only what you were capable of creating?

> you might only notice things that you like once you get in there, so to speak
i couldn't agree more.

in the way i went about it it was important to first define what i aimed to find and to determine the field in which what i'm looking for exists. that way i don't waste my time looking for something that isn't what i'm searching for. however all the specifics were still left to be determined on what it would all sound like on a event-to-event basis.

what i do have at this point though is the entire sandbox and i know that somewhere in there is a combination of musical machinery i'm both searching for and that i know i'm really going to like (on account of the rules that define the field of patterns i'm searching through). it's human selection, not human creation, which is the necessary component in creating music. i found a workflow where curation is my only process: making music by listening to it
>>
>>47863684
i like you man, you actually bother to say things i've been thinking for a while and never bothered saying

and yeah i agree with pretty much all of that

>>47863607
and as for this, what is production to you? just knowing how to compress a kick drum?

- and the conversation moved away from what constitutes electronic music ages ago
>>
>>47861317
it sounds to me like a house synth with a lot of attack and reverb. lots of reverb can sort of double as attack and delay so it may take some experimentation to get that sound but not too much

cute cuties in ur pic
>>
>>47863731
I just didn't want to talk about some guys interview on his philosophy of music. Idc if you look down on compression or whatever.

If you want to discuss philosophy in music, why not make a thread about it, instead of hijacking another thread?

I know a lot of bleep guys get super upset when people dare to call them out on their bullshit, but I really don't want to have to wade through some guy talking to himself about philosophy.
>>
>>47863780
Dude, didn't you hear? The conversation has moved on. It's not about production anymore, it's about philosophy. So you better take your narrow mind else here because it's not welcome.
>>
>>47863819
ok yeah i can see how it might be outside your area of interest

sorry for humouring all that
i like the topic but you're probably right, it's not really about bleep production any more

and i def don't look down on compression

Let's bring it back to production.

What's your favourite soft synth?

I personally like Massive.

Love the microbrute. Ended up jamming late last night because I fired up a sequence. I sent the CV out to my modular and the modular to a panner. So the microbrute stayed centered, but the modular (driven by the same sequence) would slowly pan left and right. Shit was so cash.

>If you want to discuss philosophy in music
>why not make a thread about it, instead of hijacking another thread?
didn't. posted in a production bread to see if there was anyone producing anything similar around, then someone tried to convince me autrecher made the phattest club anthems, and then someone who i assume was probably you posted something along the lines of >>47862377
>The part about generative composition could have been discussed, but instead of doing that, they spent the whole time arguing if it's shit or not.
>The part about generative composition could have been discussed
>could have been discussed
>could
so then i did this >>47862965 as an effort to unshit the thread and the rest just sorta came about naturally. at least one person seemed to not mind so don't blame me if some shit you asked for turned out to be 2future4u

Does anyone here use MAX/MSP?

I'm new at it but I wanted to try making some music with it using it to trigger many different samples and running those through delays and filters. I did this one tutorial where you can set a metro and a select object to trigger notes and I want to do that with samples. I figured out how to play files with sfplay~, but I can't understand how to play them back from different parts like they do in MSP tutorial 16 in the help section.
>>
>>47865373
i want to use max/msp, but i don't understand it. i fucking hate how limited ableton live is with possibilities, but max is way too complicated for me.
>>
>>47865237
the thread is finished though. it devolved into shitposting and meta discussion about twelve replies in.

just starting a normal production thread would have avoided those problems by the way.
>>
>>47865416
It is hard but it's not impossible. I feel very intimidated by it but I'm starting to learn anyway
>>
>>47865373
im not an expert, but had to learn some Max/MSP while doing my Bachelor's. i got by and basically started hacking apart other people's free patches.

and, in all honesty, your question would be much more well suited for the Cycling 74 forums. they tend to be really cool over there with questions.

>>47865416
ableton limited?

>>47865438
"normal" production thread?
>>
>>47865468
thanks I'll probably try the forums there.
>>
>>47865416
How's Ableton limited?

Also if you don't understand it why don't you start learning about it? The Cycling 74 forums are full of helpful people and tutorials.

>>
>>47865468
I think his problem is that you added bleep to the title. Bleep threads do tend to attract flame wars.
>>
>>47865695
i tried to start a couple of "general" production threads that died a quick death. the title /bleeproduction/ was just suggested in a bleep thread a few days ago

general production is welcome here IMO. so far, flame wars havent been that bad IMO

That feel when finally learn kontakt and realize how amazing it is as a sampler and can't wait to take advantage of its inherent possibilities.

Any other kontaktfags here?

i'm looking for female wordless vocal samples, y'know to make my beats sound atmospheric and deep
anyone know of some good packs? or whatever tracks yung gud has been sampling recently?

is this a ruse?
are you rusing?

are you all in on this?

i can't help you with that tho sorry i got no idea where any of that stuff originates

but anyway if you used an actual girl then you'd be able to put a girl on the cover and stuff

>>47866243
no matter what you decide remember that you can always put a girl on your youtube thumbnail

>not aloe plants and fiji water containers
>>
>>47866098
>>47865955
Those vocal samples aren't "wordless", man. They're regular vocal samples but heavily manipulated. For example, in the track "U want me" yung gud uses vocals that have been made unintelligible by messing with the formant and pitch. T
>>
https://soundcloud.com/kasprmusic

i plan on putting up a new tune in a couple hours
>>
>>47866353
ok maybe gud didn't use "wordless" samples in that beat, but apparently these samples are synonymous with cloud rap...

(from last fm)
Cloud Rap refers to a form of hip hop whose distinguishing features include ethereal, dreamlike beats (which often use wordless vocal samples, wherein singers harmonize or hold long notes, to produce a majestic effect)

any kind of vocal samples that help make a beat more "majestic" would be appreciated!

tldr: spoonfeed me, please
>>
>>47866485
Get a mic and do it yourself. Pitch up the samples if you're not comfortable singing falsetto.

tkb?

Touch keyboard sequencer. The three things that make serge awesome (besides nanner jacks), are the tkb, universal slope generators, and the resonant EQ.
>>
>>47867569
oh word - yeah, he has one of the seuqencers, just not within camera shot

in total he's got 4 panels. amazing system. also has a Wiard
>>
>>47867656
Damn. How rich is this guy?
>>
>>47867668
actually, not that wealthy at all - in SF, there's a workshop where you trade in a few hundred bucks for a panel and all components. he works for a popular modular synth company in the PNW which helps

hes also the person who introduced me to modular about 6-7 years ago so hes been into it for a very long time

Does anybody have a good example of Autechre-style drums made with a modular synth? like a youtube video
>>
>>47867813
i agree, but with the mods you can do you can at LEAST squeeze some extra functionality out of it and for what it costs...

these were supposedly only R&D products to gear up for the MS-20mini and onward, too
>>
>>47867864
IMO look up Richard Devine on youtube

>>47867935
yo this is pretty cool, thanks mane
>>
>>47867813
I don't mind it. Got one as a gift from my now ex gf. It's great for long car rides and whatnot. If you plug it into some decent monitors or dare to run it through a big PA, it becomes a respectable mono that has some monsterous bass.
