/prod/ Music Production General

I want to get cubase soon but I need to know if it requires an audio interface? I know I'll need it to record audio but I don't want to record audio straight away.

https://clyp.it/llsplfgu

Not exactly beats but needs feedback anyway.

Is there actually anything worthwhile from NAMM? Everything seems pretty meh.

it totally reminds me of mario galaxy on the wii
it would fit that kind of video game perfectly

Minilogue (if Korg fixes the VCA attack click), Volca FM and OB-6 seem pretty nice to me so far. Arturia's might be cool too.

Reminder to avoid gear obsession. Its a real thing and its dangerous. It keeps you from actually making any music instead you keep being obsessed with the new plugins, hardware, daw, mixer etc...

I have a friend with a really expensive studio(he invested around 80k in it) but he doesn't really make much music, just shuffles gear around mostly.

>>61912321
that's not true though. once I get an MPC and spring reverb I'll be all set.

>>61912321
nah

I buy a new synth pretty much monthly and I'm still cranking out tunes, your friend probably just isn't cut for this and is using it as an excuse.

I have to make a rap for class. I kinda want to do something with a chillwave influence, because it seems the easiest to add vocals to. Any tips, advice?

Yeah because you want a new toy every month not because you need it. Gear should be looked at as tools not toys.

Is there any good free guitar amp VST?

>>61913304

Do you guys have a BandCamp or SoundCloud?

What DAW do you recommend for beginners?

>>61913565
FL Studio.

>>61913509
Why do you think that? The whole core concept of your track is to shock the listener with those approaching beats, isn't it? It's really crazy with headphones on. Try it if you haven't.

>>61913565

I guess that release will be on bandcamp, but for now this band has nothing going on

>>61913304
check out SGear
not exactly free but fairly cheap ($100-ish iirc) and amazing

>>61912285
Idk if the VCA attack click is fixable. The OB-6 was underwhelming, it seems to just be a P6 with a Pro2 filter.

>>61912436
mix sounds pretty balanced. Chorus is really bland tho imo. I think the singer needs to use their diaphragm more or you need to maximize it more. Guitar is kinda weak too.

Except I'm using them. I'm sorry if you can't afford new stuff too, but projecting your issues on others is pretty bad.

That advice only works for a specific kind of person, and having poor discipline as a producer will screw you whether you have lots of gear or just a laptop. GAS is not the source of the issue.

I agree with you anon. I work hard and at the end of a month or two I like to buy myself something.
It seems that /prod/ is full of salty neets that think it perfectly fine to have a laptop choc full of pirated software but as soon as someone mentions buying a new bit of kit it's a waste of money as "software can do that" or "gas syndrome won't help you make music".
Every piece of hardware I've ever bought has inspired my to make more music. I'm not one to buy a new synth and just sit it in my studio, as soon as that thing is delivered it's plugged in and I'm working my way through the manual.

There's something I've been wanting to do for a while, but it'd be hard to implement with strangers on the Internet.

Whenever my friends need something specific like the actual Supersaw, they just send me MIDI and write down what they need it to sound like so I have a reference. I put it through my SH-201 and bounce out with no effects for them and they can just mix how they like on their projects.

I think with the right people a synth "community garden" could work out, but it had to be on the spirit of sharing alone: the audio would have to be put out as some sort of CC license to avoid future issues, you wouldn't need to get anyone's specific information (requester or provider) and the requests should be open so there should be no pressure or people spamming others "hey bro is it done yet" and shit. If you can help, you help by fulfilling a request and if you can't, just come back some other time.

It could be something everyone would benefit from at minimum effort, but it's hard to get it started because it relies purely on kindness.

lol rly nigga? how would you ever propose to get better?
besides, its a melody made from the g minor scale - as is everything else in the mix

>>61915548
you need to add a rhythm section.
also the horn isn't enough for your lead.

>>61915746
Just because it's in the correct scale doesn't mean that.
1. The melody is good
2. It fits

-md421 on snare and toms, don't remember the snare bottom, probably a km184 though, two more at hihat and ride but these aren't used in the mix
-u89 overheads
-a pair sennheiser mhk800s set to 8 with the 'side' (the minimal sensitivity) facing the kit, about 3 meters wide, far and high
-a single km183 taped to the back wall as a 'to smash' mono room

>>61919235

Do you have any expierence with the Advanced Audio microphones? I know they make clones of the 414 and the 47fet so I'm wondering how they stack up against the original

>>61918673
>How did TRIGER contact you?
Our label heads and Imaishi met and decided it'd be the perfect project to start a partnership with.

>How did you work with them?
They sent us the designs for the characters as well as a really rough animation for time reference. We had to make a short version of the tracks, timed to the scenes, and a CD version for the release through King Records. They approved my first draft of the track, really easy to work with.

THink I'm reaching pro level (only the drop is properly produced as this is a WIP)

how do you guys focus on your internal creativity rather than focusing on what people might like?
Now that I've shared my music with people in the real world I can't help that niggling thought of trying to make the track as accessible and likable as possible. The paradox being that I make the best stuff when I'm not thinking that way.

>>61919940
>How is it being signed to a label?
Pretty fun, there's always something interesting to do like a compilation or a dance game.

>Do you get some amount of money monthly or are people buying your tracks?
People don't buy music as much anymore, and frankly, what I make off music sales doesn't compare to what I make off music for projects. The only reason why I can do audio as a full time career is because I make music for games, anime and similar stuff: if I were to depend on being a popular artist that people support, I wouldn't be able to take care of my family at all. The way my career is right now, doing commissions is the job and releasing dance music is more like the hobby I have very little time for whenever business is good.

>>61920025

Stop listening to any other music than my own for like weeks.
Bury myself deep in making melodies, beats, progressions etc.
I try to add some popular flavor to my stuff as well, but it never drowns out the "me" in my music.
>>61919946
>three months to work on a track
Oh, that's a good timeframe.
>26
There's still hope for me (22).

I'm hoping to git gud so I can get signed to mau5trap or something and/or maybe make music for visual novels.

I do progressive house, minimal house, techno, ambient, piano compositions, trap, trance...
Sometimes I feel I'm too over the place
Future house is too complicated for me, but man it's fun to listen to.

Good luck with your stuff mate.

Cold-calling studios is a bad idea.

Instead, advertise on forums for developers. If possible go to conventions and network. Make sure they know you're available and have a portfolio (can just be a SoundCloud account with your best work in several genres).

>>61920491
Forums for developers?
>conventions
Hah, if only there were any good ones in Sweden...

I guess I need to set up my SC and BC accounts ASAP.
Clyp is a start at least.

And I do infact know a couple of game devs...

Aaaaah. Okay that makes sense now. I see. I am enlightened. My mind has been open. I am receiving 100% of your vibes loud and clear.

I recommend Bitwig (duh), it's a sexier looking Live with some neat features like per-note automation, those HUGE METERS, layered clip sequencing, etc. The stock effects are much better sounding too.

Given its now status though, it obviously is missing some things, like a spectrum, but they're holes that can be plugged since I'm using that shit full-time now.

Yes, there is timestretching.

Oh, and the modulation system is insane, the mod devices are on the right there, in the browser's lower pane. In the bottom middle you can see the LFO.

Another thing is the ability to nest devices inside devices, so, say you want to put x effect on ONLY the feedback output of their delays (Of which there's a mono, stereo, and multitap with 4 taps which I'll upload a shot of after this.)

There are things promised for v2 as well such as an answer to Max for live and online collab.

And, no, Renoise is NOT like Maschine in any way. Renoise is a tracker, trackers allow crazy shit like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OBu_DApP8bk

I only use Renoise for jungle, breakcore and such shit.

Also, here's the delay-4 showing off nested devices. As you can see I put the Blur and Ladder devices on the feedback of tap 1. All native devices can nest devices and I think they even added support to nest devices in VSTs, so when you save a preset in Bitwig, the entire chain will be recalled.

Cool.
I use FL Studio and I do that by using a send with 100% wet delay on.
It's not really straightforward, but it's so much easier to do with Patcher than it was a couple of years ago when Patcher didn't exist.

>Peavy PV6
6 channel
Small but sturdy
Usually use it for stage

>Roland RM-1200
Gigantic and sexy
12 channels
Channel strips sound really good
Gigantic

>Akai MPX 820
Rackmount 8 channel
Sits in a rack doing rack stuff
Apparently midi controlled, but goddamn that's stupidly useless in a mixer

That beg ringer should be fine, I believe the xenyx series are built/designed by the Midas guys

Thanks! It's all stock software instruments and samples from Logic Pro X, apart from the vocals (recorded on my Macbook's inbuilt microphone), the few samples from the actual band, and a complete set of Waves plugins.

Hi there,

Here's a demo from a sound I'm producing. Please use headphones if you can, give some feedback if you will.

why even use a tracker when daws exist except for video game nostalgia

>>61922471
boring, learn about mixing and mastering

>>61922896
Because they are better for some things while DAWs are better for others. It really isn't rocket science.

i mainly got this b/c of its interface.

i'm waiting for the day an affordable/durable analog mixer/midi/usb interface comes out

I want serum, but I dont wanna spend $200

>>61923127
I never got the interface part of these things since it's just recording the stereo mix, which can as well be done using the line in on your mainboard sound card
not a big selling point imo

>>61923179
why would you even post this

>>61923179

Then you'd better grab an eyepatch and a pegleg

>>61923221
i can hookup all my drum machines,samplers, pedals, and other other equipment on this, usb it into individual tracks on ableton or as one into an 8track or just jam out of monitors.

is it possible to make songs using only a drum machine? i know it comes down to the whole ,music is subjective thing but it seems like after 2 songs of just drums it would get old

>>61923320
you could make literally anything with an 808, effects, and some tape machines

>>61923320
Very possible, I have this machine, I can't do what this guy is doing, but I'm just using it as an example to prove it's definitely doable.

>usb it into individual tracks on ableton
well ...

It's still a work in progress, but is my bass harmonica drowning out my lead harmonica?

>>61923401
This guy is the most fucking annoying person I've ever seen use any piece of equipment ever

>>61923422
what?

>>61923363
any examples of only 808 tracks, that sounds cool

>>61923495
Here's an 808 clone put through a sherman filterbank with pretty much just one pattern

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHc4YivkYS0

I'm pretty confident with a tape machine, tape delay, some distortion, reverbs, etc I could probably make a bunch of stuff with my only instrument being the 808

I had a sample a while back that was a neat pad made from timestretching a verbed 808 tom

These threads are cancer. 99% of posts are shit about equipment that people can't use properly. And 1% of the posts are people looking to find advice that no one will help them with.

>>61923475

I know I know, but I just wanted anon to know it's possible. Is it the pink gloves that trigger you?

>>61924004
It's the really annoying hand motions and shit but the pink gloves sure don't help

>>61923810

/prod/ isn't perfect, but honestly I've gotten some really great advice and shot the shit with some people cool people in these threads. I don't have time for all that forum bullshit I like that these threads are either up or not.

Guys, so far I've been making a new song almost every day. If I keep this up will I eventually get good? Or is there more that I should do?

>>61924100
That's all you really can do, bro. It takes a certain amount of hours invested into something before you start to git gud. Each day try to focus on going for something different
