fl isn't a good daw
starting off strong i see
being that you're a shit producer it really doesn't matter what DAW you use.
...
i'm literally a better producer than u tho
>mfw someone says FL sucks near me
are you implying ableton is the only good daw because ableton is a shit daw
I didn't make the picture.
I'm a Reason user.
prove it?
>falling for this meme
you must be new
nah, you're not. and we both know it since i showed you my clyp. So you can shut up now.
feel like the vocals need to be rerecorded or better mixed or something. They seem off.
>clyp.it
reverb on the drums is god awful
there's barely bass
the snare is weak as fuck
the bells are harsh
that white noise hi hat is cringeworthy
this honestly sounds like the music i made when i was 14
K.
when i read it i thought you were just shitting on him for arbitrary shit but god you're right
what the fuck made him think that snare was good
wow bro what a pathetic same fag.
keep on coping kid
what's funny is he's like 30
lol whatever. i really don't care. song isn't mixed or near completion yet.
what an easy excuse
so us something you've finished then
if you didn't care you wouldn't have been responding to me for the past hour
hi /prod/!
What would be a good usb interface to use with ubuntu studio (ardour, etc)
It would be used for basic recording, electric guitar line-in and mic line.
Like pic related, is tascam decent for linux / bedroom recording?
Thank you for your help...
i love you. i bought fl 10 years ago and still haven't used it. fml
doesn't mean it's bad, just means i had shitty hardware, and lazy
that is a beautiful face user
see
>clyp.it
lol this is finished?
yep. and so am i.
sorry to get you so assblasted
>implying i use a daw
>clyp.it
Snare and clicks sound awful.
okay this is very generic but at least it sounds good
whatever process you use, it's unequivocally shit
I'm considering buying the Xenyx Q802USB, since it has XLR phantom power, monojacks inputs. Also a built in soundcard. haven't tried it though, so don't take my word for it.
im audacity
>HI, I'M SCHEEMLESS AND TODAY I'M GOING TO TELL YOU HOW TO MAKE THIS SOUND
>farts onto mic
thats just like, your opinion man. you're the only person who has had the criticism that has heard it.
generic, sure. wasn't trying to be super experimental or abstract or anything. it's just an RnB song.
the singing is just bad man
take some voice lessons or something
autotune can't fix everything
No, I can agree. Especially the reverb on them. The reverb should kind of melt back into the whole atmosphere of the track but yours just hangs out awkwardly.
Can't argue with that
Also question for everyone:
Since i'm drowning in PSUs and i found some of my gear can run on usb power do you have any suggestions for a multi usb psu? Talking about synths and pedals,not controllers. I'm asking cause usb can provide 5V while most of my gear needs 9V,so how can they run with such voltage?
I'm not THAT bad of a singer. And auto-tune was used extremely minimally and mainly for texture.
well what are ya gonna do, oh well.
Who else did you ask about it. Your friends arent good critics because they arent going to point out flaws in your tracks because they like you to much.
lol this phantomgains nigga just gettin all sorts of roasted
join the /prod/ discord and talk shit to each other live!
jk come chat and chill, share clyps, feedback and tips
hardwareboys.zip
Why is Pro Tools complete shit?
would you be able to tell the difference if you heard a track produced on it compared to something else?
what do hardware people record their stuff onto if not a computer?
I dunno what does, but back in the day (and still in hipster studios like dave grohl land) they would use these big bad boys.
idk probably if it was all synth based
sample based probably not
haha if I followed any DAW opinions I've read here I wouldn't produce any music.
Btw where else you guys go to when need new content to read? I used the wikia but I think I need more.
One last question, more like a favor. Can someone break it down for me what happened
With these "I mind" and "Pussy' that James says?
How that's achievable? I really don't know what happened but I love it
youtube.com
Sorrry for the youtube link
'Pussy' has a crossfaded loop point set at the tail end of the word, forwardsbackwardsforwardsbackwards (easy to do in kontakt or manually in your audio editor), but before that, it had some degree of autotune related pitch correction, giving it a vaguely robotic sound.
I recorded a small ep using a tascam 414
Thank you user, that was very helpful.

great OP
Just fuck my shit up /prod/.
Damn I miss producing, need new notebook asap.
what was the point of just shitting on somebodies music?
it's pretty decent, especially compared to shite that's regularly posted here
I agree, sure, the guy can work on his delivery a bit, and fine tune his recording methodology, but it really wasn't bad. Especially compared to most stuff in that genre.
Any component that needs 9v from a 5v supply could have a boost converter (DC-to-DC) within the unit to step up the voltage, but it's more likely that units that can take a 5v supply from USB only need that voltage to begin with, and the 9v from the PSU gets stepped down using a buck converter instead.
i hate to play the blame game but he shit on mine first in the last thread and his music is nowhere near as good as he thinks it is
just cuz most of the stuff that gets posted here is pure noob garbage doesn't make that shit good
oh, eh musicians are insecure
i only lurk these threads to answer questions for new guys... never expect anything to be decent and original at the same time, though i've been surprised
I have a shitty PC, pentium 4 3ghz, 2gb ram... What kind sofware do you think is good for me? I like to make experimental dark ambient, drone and such. I don't need fancy stuff, just something that can run well in this old pc.
Thanks guys.
>I like to make experimental dark ambient, drone and such.
Audacity is all you need.
nice meme
He's right you know
It's 100% true.
Is this too weird for a dream-ish sequence?
I'm struggling to say anything nice about this.
That's probably a yes then.
Thanks
What do I need to get started on producing future-bass music and just in general.
What hardware is worth buying, money isn't an issue. I'm looking at the Komplete Kontrol shit form Native Intstruments, and maybe one of their drumpads too (Maschine?). Is that shit bad? or will it help me produce?
hello friends
i am a huge prod noob, but i would really like to get into it.
i have some experience with songwriting (mostly rock music though), and pretty good music theory knowledge, but almost no production knowledge apart from lurking these threads a bit and some playing around with some programs
i would really appreciate any tips, advice on how to start, recc me some reasources to read up / watch, which daw to use etc.
>which daw to us
Anything but Fruityloops.
There's some nice articles in the wikia, Coursera, Youtube and etc.
youtube.com
This video about synthetics was very helpful to me.
I don't know, jut keep lurking. I might be bashed about this but leditt has some nice stickies about this subject, just learn what you need to learn and don't interact with the millennials (or do it you might be a faggot who knows).
>don't interact with the millennials
what did he mean by this?
Hey what do you guys think of this?
clyp.it
Too stock sounding? Am I destined to be a Beatles cuck? Sorry for the shit mix and vocals, it was my first take and I wanted to show it to peeps
mixing contest when???
what mixing contest?
/prod/'s mixing contest
we need someone to post stems of a song, we need judges and contestants
I don't think there was ever a contest. I've been here a long time.
There used to be a huge mixup about the /prod/ challenge being a contest, but I think people were deliberately making that mistake
people suggested it during the last thread
Finally figured out how to bass
(I think. Lemme know if it sounds good on your system.)
probably new question but im new to synths
i'm a fan of skrillex's older stuff and want to know exactly how he gets his synths to not just sound "flat". As in just a solid straight sound like pressing a key on a piano. It almost sounds like there's a slight pitch bend or something is being modulated. How do I do that?
happens everywhere in this song
youtube.com
Various parameters of the sound are effected through time.
which ones though? I have massive
Mebe we can pick one of these
Audacity is considered a DAW?
Of course.
i'm pretty sure the main draw of those both is how they integrate with ni's software... i'm sure there's better for cheaper honestly.
lol, just try routing the lfo's /stepsequencer/perfect whatever to fucking everything, and even in between themselves. don't forget the envelopes too .... seriously just go crazy

nice bass ƒam
this is not good, make better
what super nintendo game is this from
just went on reddit and saw this, I'm fucking done
Hahahahahhahahaha, fukin meme of the day m8
jesus what subreddit
A short simple progression I made just to put some ideas to the test.
how was everyone's weekend? I've been trying to use pads to join sections in this tune but idk if its working so far. think i need to strip back and revisit
Sounded like they were well merged to me. It all sounds very clouded, which helps too.
ok thank you
