Hey /mu/ I won't lie, this is my first time posting as my domain/stomping ground is gearslutz, but I thought I'd get an idea of who hangs around here by asking a simple question: Got any music production tips? Preferably no novice stuff. Been doing this for many years (recording a blue grass band tomorrow god help us all). But just some nice tips would be nice. :)

If you've been doing this for years you probably know more than anyone on /mu/

Turn bass the fuck up. Double vocals during the chorus. Snare sounds hi pitched but actually uses a ton of low end frequency too. Put a notch in your bass frequency where kick can sit and vice versa- see them as one instrument- Think 'Penny Lane'. High end and low end get louder the higher you turn your volume so setting them lower can actually give a comfier max volume level to the listener.
>>
Music is 90% about the recording quality and 10% how it's mixed. Messing with phase cancellation can lead to some awesome tones. Bass can be direct inputed to good effect if you have a low budget studio. Put on a high pass filter up to about 100hz for everything unless you're making dance/edm shit.

I hope you mean quality of the recording take and not the actual equipment, as a lot can be done with meager set ups. Though I will agree the more gear the better, though at the same time, its best not to over complicate things if you don't have to.

I basicall mean that if you record a shitty take or in a room, there's no way to mix it to sound good. Whereas if you record a great take in a good room, it practically mixes itself
>>
>>73448832
ok then I 100% agree
>>
>>73448766
You almost can't fuck up the mixing as long as you recorded in a good room

There's usually a production general thread called /prod/ but it's not up right now. Most of the people there are electronic music producers and talk about that most of the time, but other topics like audio engineering are also welcome. Come back and check the catalog some time tomorrow and there will probably be a /prod/ thread
>>
>>73449704
sounds good m8
>>
>>73448604
This.
>>73448576
Also, I recommend you the daily /prod/ threads on here, you might find more producers in that thread

High trebles can lead to overall loud sound without the need to compress.

Tip two: use Sony vegas

>>
how do you lot go about writing lyrics?
So far my method has been coming up with a melody to go along with the guitar rhythm
then using words that fit into that melody.
It's getting me nohere
