Inspiration/Creativity/Motivation / Re: WAVO competitions a joke?
« on: January 28, 2016, 03:45:11 pm »
I source remix contests for Splice and voting does not matter at all. Every remix/submission is heard in our competitions (whether by the label, artist, or Splice bros). None of our winners have been in the 'top 10' and were often submitted just before closing or low in the 'charts.' It's important to the label & artist to really find their favorite submission because they'll be promoting or officially releasing it. I believe voting/follow-to-download systems are gimmicky. We're exploring solutions and algorithms that can mitigate cheating with voting as well. If you guys have suggestions to improve remix contests or questions let me know!

Wow I'm gonna have to start doing Splice comps instead of Wavo! Do the remix competitions come up on the dashboard?

Yaaaa I agree with North Mark. All he is actually doing is automating the volume which could be done in so many ways.

So if you go into gross beat, under the patterns section (Which is usually the default selection, but if it isn't then click the drop down arrow and under presets select patterns). In the bottom half where the sidechain is there should also be two called 'Tremolo Fast' & 'Tremolo Slow'. I can't remember off the top of my head, they may be abbreviated to something like 'Trmw Slw' I'm not sure. These put a basic tremolo on and you can then adjust the timing and the amount it takes out!

I also use FL Studio but I tend to use a tremolo within Gross Beat to achieve a future bass sound. I don't know if ableton has a similar plugin. Also you could experiment with a Fast Low Pass filter that could would do the same sort of thing?

Inspiration/Creativity/Motivation / Best mixes for inspiration?
« on: January 27, 2016, 11:56:21 am »
I was recently listening to San Holo's BBC1 XTRA initiation mix while revising and it really inspired me. The music he makes is so unique, so euphoric & thought-provoking and made me desperate to finish exams and get back in the studio.

Any body else found any mixes that do the same for them?

I think kinda the opposite way. Only a tiny proportion of the world could make something similar to me and even then nobody is likely to make something the exact some, motivates me to start trying fresh ideas ad to stay unique.

ahaaa yeah I always day dream about meeting favourite producers and playing shows ahaha!

Good motto though and 100% true.

Inspiration/Creativity/Motivation / Motto or Mantra that motivates you.

A few weeks ago I stumbled across a saying that was posted with no relevance to music whatsoever. But it just stuck in my brain and when I'm feeling unmotivated it gets me going again, so I thought I'd share it with you guys and see if any one else had any of their own!

"I haven't come this far, to only come this far"

All good points, I definitely agree that they're good way to get some stems and vocals to use for future products.
