New general, we produce beats and post them on SoundCloud or Dropbox and link each other to them, post updates, all that gay crap. Basically Sup Forums's version of /agdg/.
That's pretty good, keep at it. Also, post screenshots of your current progress (screenshots from inside the program).

I recorded my old electric piano and made an Instrument Rack for Ableton Live. Free download: gumroad.com/l/korg_sg-1d_ep1/
Sebastian Cook
if I had a Korg SG-1D I'd scrap it for the NJM2069 VCF ICs, just saying
Adrian Bennett
Right, like a Poly 800 or something? I've had this thing since I was a kid and maybe I'm overly attached to it's very limited voices, but I think it's a pretty nice sound
Jacob Evans
it's based on the DSS-1 I think
Isaiah Davis
hello. i'm trying my hand at making a synth pop/noise pop song. i have not made many songs before. tell me what you think so far
fuck you cancerous faggot I won't just stand here and watch you tarnish /prod/ killlll yourself
Logan Garcia
not the worst thing i've heard, but it's not much of a song. it's just a repeating melodic sequence. you need at least a b section to create/release tension. that or you can mask the repetitiveness of it by arranging the sequence better, have things come and go in place of changing melodic sections.
Noah Mitchell
wow that video fucking sucks
Jacob Perry
>mixing trumps composition
most retarded thing I've heard in years.
if you believe this or work like this, you are not a producer/artist/composer, you are an engineer
Caleb Campbell
/prod/ is dead, huh?
Liam Price
What kinda shitty OP is this? >New general No, /prod/ has been around for quite some time. Never post again.
William Scott
are Condensers mic unusable for bedroom productions due to their high sensivity to far ambient noise?
Ryan White
Meh, I know a few that could work.
Yes, but /prod/ is shit, so this is the new general.
You are correct.
Carter Rivera
>Meh, I know a few that could work. how
Nathan Nguyen
It's true if you just make pop. So many tunes are just polished turds.
Andrew Bailey
I know a few that are so quiet that you have to lean into the mic very far. Like the Blue Snowball, but don't use the Snowball because the Snowball's sound is very closed.
Nathaniel Stewart
you mean close right? what you mean by closed? could make interesting tones
Carter Watson
heres something for my mu bros that are struggling:
1. get fl studio 2. get a bunch of midi 3. mix and mash midi files 4. drap and drop drum samples onto channels(the notes preserved) 5. use a sonnet structure to arrange your songs
enjoy
Oliver King
>get fl studio only part im struggling with
Alexander Bailey
most daws use midi, however im not sure how easy it is to use put samples into midi notes
i've been using reaper and it's functional but doesn't have some of the things i'd like to use that are in FL studio
any suggestions on making ambient/idm
Austin King
youve got a playlist in fl studio, where you can paint patterns/aka/measures. its a little different and does not work as well, but its kinda the same thing
Oliver Sullivan
not what I was implying, I wanted the randomizer from FL Studio for drum patterns
Jace Walker
I mean closed by like, the sound has no richness to it, it's a very flat tone.
Jose Reyes
ah i see. just one more question, and you said some condensers you have to lean very close or very far?
Luke Nelson
Can anybody tell me what that sound is? How is it made? Is that a synth or guitar? Something in between?
I mean the thing starting at the 10 second mark. Not the obvious guitar and that stuttering sound. the other one
Yeah, like I said, with the Snowball, you have to lean in to the microphone to get a loud recording, so you bet your ass there is gonna be no issues with background noise. For open sound (rich sound), I suggest the Samson C01u Pro, and if you get issues with background noise in your recordings, what you should do is use the program Audacity to remove the noise.
Jonathan Gray
Can you explain the noise? I hear a few noises starting at 0:10. If you are talking about that echo-ey sound, I believe that is a synthesized instrument, possibly a trombone.
Sebastian Harris
Yeah what the fuck there is like 3 sounds at 0:10
>stutter >low guitar/bass >that fucking high sound that has reverb to it and long attack
guess you mean that too. trombone? never heard have to check. hope I can somehow reproduce that sound with UHE diva or some shit.I am really bad at doing that honestly
Landon Collins
thanks, will note that samson model for when i ge the money. is it based off which famous mic? the 87? reaper's noise remover is better tho
William Scott
I mean, whatever you think works best for noise removal, go ahead. The microphone has been used to record shit before, Pink Guy's first album, the self-titled one, all the vocals were recorded with the C01u Pro.
Jason Wood
i made some shit with a friend and im wondering if it needs anything or if the mix is fucked and such
/prod/ sucks, and this general seems cool and all, but no one cares about it
rip all music production on Sup Forums
David Fisher
granted i'm not on Sup Forums as often as i used to be but these threads have been helpful to me and fun generally. just contribute to threads by listening and sharing. be the change you want to see and help me out with critique.... clyp.it/pynvlrta
Gavin King
Working on some stuff for the coming season. Haven't actually finished anything, just scattered ideas
>clyp.it/kkn0fzqb not sure about the synth layer that comes in at like 40 seconds rest of the synth lines work well though. the idea at the end at like 120 is dope but it could use some more oomph behind it. maybe just making those chord stabs louder or a kick but im not sure. pretty cool tho
John Bailey
Everyone is in the sound design thread
Brayden Adams
Does anyone know how that Kontakt NoInstall shit from r*tracker works? I wish they were more inclusive and didn't write all their readmes in kyrillic.
Sebastian Foster
>get a shit ton of samples >pick out a random few good sounding ones >start throwing them everywhere randomly >starts sounding like afx twin
Brandon Cook
Hey guys, I need to buy a electric keyboard but I want it to have a midi output, can you recommend anything?
