I just place the left and right speaker further away from each other.

damn that's a good technique

also anyone know what the best limiter is? i asked in the last thread before the jannies did it for free, the best I've come across is the AOM limiter

Ya'll finished or ya'll done?

this made me laugh

i use pic related from reason via rewire

youtube.com/watch?v=NAs7WsWKXkw

i love this synth

clyp.it/aeirjyvu

Rate my stoned ambient synth piano thing.

CLAIM YOUR SYNTHFU

PIC RELATED: MINE

...

uhe make great synths and effects but they absolutley kill my cpu

Aye, that must be the magical trickery they use to make them sound so good

also threadly reminder that drum and bass is the best genre and the ultimate test of musicianship: if you can make a good DnB track you are worthy

Reason is objectively the best.

>absolutley kill my cpu
Reason won't do this.

...

you mean Studio One is the best DAW

Fuck, I'd love some feedback on this.
clyp.it/rihvvrpz

clyp.it/fhi0sgwz

Hey I'd appreciate some feedback on the arrangement of this track!!!

Thanks a lot!

>that ugly skin

needs more melodic characters, like an arpeggio synth

maybe mix up the melody a good amount more

What the other guy said, needs more melodic changes.

damn that's a pretty patrish skin

where do I get it

How's my track? Criticism is appreciated.

clyp.it/wbpatsty

Whats a cheap synth that features an arpeggiator.

Musical theatre/10

it's not really a track lol

you need percussion and some other noises dumbo

You really really need to buy that arpegiator. It's your only hope of not sounding bad.

W.CD

Someone make a track out of this youtube.com/watch?v=H133cTro1NQ

kek

Thoughts?
clyp.it/45x42kqz

how do make Skrillex bass noises?

Get a microphone, plug it into a distortion pedal and shout "wub wub" down it.

thnks, i had a feeling i was missing some variation? other wise, hows it sound production wise?

Sound production wise it's sounding ok dude.

well i cant do a proper analysis because i dont have a lossless copy but it sounds pretty solid from what i hear on clyp

? What do you mean

What is w.cd?

I meant it sounds like musical theatre music.

learn fm synthesis

He probably means what.cd

probably what cd

Updated version of this picture.

what did they mean by this???

>no studio one

plebiscite

>what did they mean by this???
You need someone to invite you.

I remember they used to have threads about that in Sup Forums years ago, don't know if they still do. Or maybe someone here can help you.

i never see any love for synthmaster here

Post a clyp and I will find a picture and update.

How do I make music as evocative and beautiful as this, /prod/?

youtube.com/watch?v=-Zq6Va901ME

its actually pretty good and cheap imo

i think it probably gets overlooked because it has a cheesy sounding name

big freedas aight

First remove your frontal lobes.

what the fuck is up with the usa man

its bizzaro land irl here

>ywn make a middle aged women cry with ur music

Sounds like a Vice City background track/loading screen.
I like it.

Whole thing sounds cool, but I especially love that synth sound at the beginning.

yes I will I'm Stefan Burnett

Please never tour England.

did that game even have original music

Yes, for loading screens.

Link, idr

I am not a monkey who googles things for you.

I google'd and nothing came up, thanks for the (You)

2/10, learn chords

You're retarded then, I just found it easily.

sounds like the shit evacuating my anus cavity this morning

Oh well :)

Not great.

fag

>he deleted it

clyp.it/olmbq3do


this is how you DONT make music, prodfags

Oh the theme song, could've said that instead of "loading screen" smdh

Be nice, let him keep it deleted.

>be nice

where do you think we are

just messing around on my synth it's alright. figured i would just delete to avoid drama

Fair point cocksucker.

clyp.it/rlfzqtq1

this is something gay i made a while back

And they said gabber was dead.

>tfw listening to grimes breakthrough album

pretty interesting, i think it's the composition that made it successful

still shit tho on the rilla

jelly boi detected

>grimes
I hit play on one of her videos once and had to hit stop ten seconds later.

>no one ever replies to my clyps, not even to mock.
Feels pretty bad.

where the heck can i find middle eastern vocal like this preferably free

go to london or any european city and record with ur iphone

which one is it, ill reply

tfw live in rural usa and no arabs

Pick any with no replies.

there are two, i heard both, there's a reason why no one replied

anyone know good ways to record in college?

I'm sure I can figure out a way, I'm curious to see what other people do though.

Also does anyone know any good ways/software/anything to remove background noise?
I tend to get a lot of that kind of stuff when I record, and Audacity doesn't do too great of a job of removing it.

>there's a reason why no one replied
Thanks for the constructive criticism.

which one is it

Both of them.

there's no constructive criticism to give, the first one is an ambient piano that sounds like an ambient piano should, but doesn't catch any attention cause its literally exactly what it promises to be: an ambient piano ambienting around

nothing extra good or extra bad about it, it just is what the poster said it was

the other one sounds out of place for these threads, too good, maybe way too much hiss

Its a private tracker, if you want to join try visiting the /ptg/ general on Sup Forums should be some info in the copypasta.

Thanks man.

clyp.it/ilgnhih0 nvm I like this better idk rlkffllglglglg desu

they are both decent

the ambient piano one i thought was kind of boring but had decent sound

i like this one clyp.it/45x42kqz

it reminds me of kind of video game music but the sound is kind of muddy imo like instruments are competing for frequencies

>it reminds me of kind of video game music but the sound is kind of muddy imo like instruments are competing for frequencies
You might be right there, something to look over.
I liked it until the drop at 1:50.

youtube.com/watch?v=_s-0TX3bu-k

what kind of drum vst would be good for autist shit like this

Look for a real drum kit sample pack, and add production stuff (gates, EQ etc) to it yourself.
