>/prod/ wiki - still looking for contributors mu-sic-production.wikia.com There's a severe lack of DAW descriptions in the wiki. If you're good with your tool of choice, consider writing a paragraph about it.
Remember to use clyp.it to post your tracks/WIP: posting a clyp.it is just providing sound for a question, posting a Soundcloud link is making self-advertisement and the thread doesn't need that.
Remember to check other peoples' clyp.it links to keep the thread healthy.
Actually, not just guitar. I need recommendations for just about every instrument. Where do I look? Also free includes piracy.
Wyatt Howard
AudioZ is a useful place to look around, just dont use the usenet link, its shit. go for other links on the page. it may be slow but it has whatever i look for. As for guitar vsts, are you talking about things like BiasFX?
Joshua Williams
can't find nexus 2 on pirate bay for logic x
will give gold token to whoever helps me get it without buying it
William Wilson
>guitar vsts they are usually bad and fake sounding imo it would be better to get a cheap guitar from a pawn shop and learn it
Luke Green
any cool stuff from namm?
Noah Young
anyone know of a working fl studio crack?
Matthew Perez
What VSTs are good for analog style sounds that don't directly emulate existing analog synthesizers?
Gavin Cox
wait who are these guys?
can i get a quick run down?
Colton Stewart
Do you mean guitar amp VSTs? Guitar Rig. Free on the bay.
John Foster
its daft punk without the masks
Nathaniel Nguyen
they're huge fags
Xavier Morales
whats the best way to get good, do I just have to spend time messing around? Should I look for outside resources?
Hunter Sullivan
Tutorials on YT, they'll be there obtain a full version of whatever DAW you desire, any method is fine Dick around in it for long periods of time, learn it until you know the DAW by heart
Do NOT save every little idea in their own file, you'll just create clutter. it may not be bad at first, but it becomes unmanageable.
Jonathan Jones
As far as musical talent goes, it's something you either end up having or you don't honestly. You could spend 5 years straight doing nothing but working on music and become a master or you could still be shit by the end. Of course, the only way to know is to just do it and find out. You can help yourself quite a bit by just learning as much as you can, watching videos, learning theory and how to use whatever technology you choose to use, and experimenting with new ideas. Lastly if you don't enjoy doing it don't even bother.
Daniel Williams
so what happens when i use pirate bay without a vpn?
Charles Garcia
Why are literally all links to the newest cracked serum mac version offline? Pls halp >inb4 kanye
Kevin Hill
I don't take production too seriously desu, but it's still cool to hear feedback on my shitty little compositions
depends on where you live also you should find a way to get an Apollo or PassTheHeadphones account, there is some stuff there
Dylan Williams
what's the chord you play at 0:37? Hold that shit longer. It's unusual. Don't go straight to the harmonious chord again good mixing btw. What daw do you use?
Lucas Hall
- why are new roland synths so shit and bad turd-looking
- why do they keep making bad looking synths when people have complained for years, is it someones wife made the design and they dont want to offend or what
- are roland retarded and run by a senile person, why dont they just use the old style that reminds of a wipeout playstation game, why dont they reissue the classics
James Baker
When submitting tracks to labels, is it bad if they're unmastered? What about if I master them myself despite not being very good?
Landon White
depends on the label, really.
shit label? master it yourself. higher tier label? might want to ask around.
Bentley Ross
What is this sound that everyone uses? I cut it so you know what sound I'm talking about but it's from one of Jinsang's songs.
I mean, you don't need it specifically for Logic, you can get it for every DAW...
Lucas Roberts
ahh that makes sense
thanks bud
Chase Campbell
>my shitty usb2midi bought years ago doesn't send Sysex >on the KORG manual it's written that some usb interface are not able to handle those messages >various forum posts and blacklists about it >call the technical support of a shop asking informations about a midi interface i want to buy as a replacement >he starts to sperg out telling me that that's not possible and that everything is independent from interfaces >it's written in the fucking KORG manual bro I sent him an email with a link to the korg manual, I wonder if he will reply
Matthew Ramirez
who /oldschoolprod/ here?
i only use old, crummy and shit free vst plugins. it gives me some sort of edge.
Cameron Jenkins
Worked on the tune I put up in the previous thread lads. Added a lead guitar and a groovy bass track (At least I *think* it's groovy - Whatever that means lol) It's still a bit rough and I think I might change/add some of the patterns. How polished/how many tracks does a demo album have to be usually?
I think I wanna go for more industrial hip hop beats and for pop music- i love both
Christopher Murphy
dude I almost fucking died
Ryan Jackson
Shreddage II is the only good guitar VST I can find. Is there anything like it for acoustic guitar?
Zachary Bennett
I got a sampler that has individual outputs and a 'mixed output'
When I send a sound through an individual out via a TS cable to the soundcard instrument input, it sounds fine.
When I do the same with a mono cable using either of the mixed outputs, I get no sound but a painful screeching sound. Is this supposed to take a TRS to TS split only? Is it normal behaviour for screeching to be heard if you put a stereo jack output to a mono cable?
Brandon Clark
Sounds like a sampled harp.
Juan Evans
Sometimes mono cables fuck shit up because they connect the two stereo pins internally which is not always calculated in with the circuit design.
Ayden Scott
i need to know if mixed output means a single one of those outputs sends a combined l+r signal to a single cable, or if i've been sold something with destroyed outputs
Jordan Price
should be easy enough to test if that's the case
Tyler Long
im waiting for a reply from the seller, ill order a splitter if its necessary but i wanted to see if anyone here would know
ill be pissed off if yet another ebay purchase was someone offloading broken gear thinking i wouldn't test it
if those outputs are destroyed, would sending a splitter from the headphone output give the same quality signal?
Christopher King
couldn't you just stick a pair of headphones into the mixed outs to find that out?
Asher Reyes
i read that you're not supposed to do that w/ no explanation
god everything to do with cables and recording is vague as fuck on the internet
Christian Reyes
live in canada
Jayden Anderson
the demo mode on GR5 is entirely usable at least
you can flip through the presets under the time limit and get a lot of sounds
Noah Sanders
then nothing
Aiden Reyes
i meant mac
Ayden Martinez
is it weird to ask your favorite music artists in person what kind of equipment they use to make their sounds?
Kevin Flores
probably comes off as youre trying to look for a shortcut to sound like them.
literally just glorification of down syndrome music because it's 'urban', half of it sounds like reggaeton mixed with hip hop
literally everything people post ITT is just trap and really bad EDM, because you're shit and stupid and 14
Chase Ross
...
Josiah Clark
sounds like you just suck
Ethan Thompson
This is actually true
Hunter Peterson
>really bad EDM
as someone who posted this shit in this thread that kinda hurts lad
Easton Williams
This is actually untrue
user is just upset that they haven't amounted to anything in their sad music career and taking it out on hobbiest like us.
Dominic Jackson
ignore this guy, it's /nba/ leaking some famous basketball GM apparently lurks here and they're trolling for him to respond
Jason Cooper
>user is just upset that they haven't amounted to anything in their sad music career and taking it out on hobbiest like us.
it's not about 'taking it out' on anyone, this thread is just really bad. it's literally a video game general for using pirated software to make trap and bad EDM
Henry Kelly
kek sorry about your life failures user
Joshua Butler
stop making trap
Nolan Anderson
no
RAINDROPS
Thomas Morales
why do you come here if you hate it so much
Jace Phillips
go back to /nba/
Ryan King
Tfw lacking too much confidence to even look at my laptop, let alone try to make good tracks. I get so butthurt at myself sucking and just scribble depressing pictures in my sketchbook.
Asher Garcia
trap is like 12 years old now
thats almost the time difference between sgt. peppers and detroit techno
just make something new lmao
Michael Cox
7kt sent us from /nba/. he said you could teach us how to make darrude sandstorm on a cracked ipad no problem?
>clyp.it/cb1jgrjd sounds like something I can listen to while shitting in the morning
Dominic Walker
I agree with the other user that the distortion should come down a bit. It's too much right now.
Charles Gutierrez
what do i need? fruityloops?
Joseph Adams
>clyp.it/wryold0a those shitty guitars made me want to kill myself 10 seconds in. then that shitty riff went on for what seemed like hours
naw hell naw/10
Ryder Young
where your clypit newfriendo?
Jose Torres
...
Juan Sullivan
at your moms. it's the sound of her ass clapping. haven't mastered it yet
Jaxson Ortiz
it sounded like a friends tv show intro nightmare. cool if that's the sound you were looking for lad
Ayden Nelson
Ignore this, its /nba/ raiding us
Noah Hall
here's something really groovy clyp.it/pp4twtoa on that note, anyone here familiar with reason? are you able to make the default instruments sound good? that upright bass for example, I remember using a vst a friend had and it was the nicest upright bass ever. am I just making excuses or should I try another sampler?
Sebastian Young
>clyp.it/pp4twtoa that would be fine if you didn't steal the midi file
John Barnes
what do you mean?
Blake Campbell
>I don't make trap
thank you for being one of the few faggots on here
melody-wise and chord-wise I think it's a nice start, I obviously know it sounds cheesy and midi-like but it has much to do with the default reason nn-xt instruments. that's why I asked if anyone is familiar with reason
Lincoln Ward
>clyp.it/eeummbxl not bad a little clay d ish but overall good job
Logan Torres
i cant be bothered to figure it out but it sounds like a popular track
im not an expert but oh wait i am
Jace Murphy
>expert
Nolan Green
don't know what you're talking about but maybe I took it from somewhere. C#sus, Bsus, Bmaj, C#dim and C#. add a goofy bass on that it'd be cool to compare if you knew where you remembered it from
Jose Russell
expert at being a faggot
Luke Martinez
I'm looking for it. It was a Chicago house track
Connor Gonzalez
Aphex Twin?! You post here?!! Wow!!!! It's really you!!!!
Brody Campbell
>clyp.it/eeummbxl i love you, though i also hate you for stealing my idea, btw yes you can be better than the cornish disklavier autist, persistence is all, take it from me ;)
not really my area of expertise. in my mind I'm making it sound like a fruity diddy kong racing track or something
Samuel Butler
Here's a quick rundown on the Bogdanoffs: >rothschilds bow to the Bogdanoffs >in contact with aliens >rumoured to possess psychic abilities >control france with an iron fist >own castles and banks all over the world >direct descendants of the ancient royal blood line >will bankroll the first cities on Mars (Bogdangrad will be be the first city) >own basically every DNA editing research facility on Earth >first designer babies will be Bogdanoff Babies >both brothers said to have 200+ IQ >ancient Indian scriptures tell of two angels who will descend upon the Earth and will bring an era of enlightenment and unprecedented technological progress with them >These are the Bogdanoff twins >They own Nanobot R&D labs around the world >You likely have Bogdabots inside you right now >The Bogdanoffs are in regular communication with the Archangels Michael and Gabriel, forwarding the word of God to the Orthodox Church >They learned fluent French in under a week >Nation states entrust their gold reserves with the twins.
