If you're concerned about your computer usage then go do something that's not so heavily involved on the computer. or minimize your computer time to only music.

I've played enough MMO's to know they're not worth my time any more, and among other business aspects -_-


The internet is easily gratifying experience....the outside world is tough...

also, don't get a girlfriend/boyfriend just because lol. that's literally the same thing as getting a pet because you're bored.

all you really need for a god like master is black sabbath

side chaining takes a signal source and sends that source signal to a compressor and uses that source signal to trigger the compressor (source runs in parallel to a compressor where the parallel signal activates the compressor).

with side chaining, you're causing the compressor to duck out when the source signal is being activated.

the more aggressive settings causes the compressor to behave more aggressively (ie you hear more of the effect) if you have higher ratios and threshold settings.

and you have more subtle effect with lower threshold and ratio settings.

attack and release define when the compressor is activated and how long it ends given the respective settings.

The source's parallel signal, attack, and release settings determine how long and when the compressor activates. threshold and ratio determine how aggressive the effect is.




I would suggest you group kick and snare and send ALL of your instruments to one side chain compressor group. then send a parallel signal of your kick and snare group.

there's a reason for this as if you were to do it individually it eats up processing and creates lag the more time you do it....so uses groups.

you can also do this to vocals as the source signal as well to get the vocals to sit on top of the music.

decent drum sound.

bass synth(in the drop) has no feeling to it, i suggest you look into how you can make your envelops work for you as well as velocity changes and note length.

it sounds like you've played out that bass line as well.

the middle part is really good.

That bass synth is really the only thing that needs work the most, every thing else seems to be well done.

I don't know if abrasive sounds would work in this particular concept.


critique on consumer speakers.

if you're separating out one sound into three different parts, and then pitching the one source, you're going to effect the separate signals that are layered out.

Try duplicating the same kick sample into how many frequency ranges you want, and individually pitch them.

marrow thats interesting re: the decay and attack. is that to simulate more 'humanized' sustain and timings?

also. ive been thinking of getting a little field recorder so i can record foley and claps and stuff like that myself, like VCTRLXNDR said. anyone got any recommendations for that?

Reason has this cool feature where you can adjust the decay and pitch based on how hard you make the velocity.

If you really spend time and analyze one sound, you can get a lot out of it.

Dis shit hella weird bruv.

good job.

bar out your intro to something that's like 16 bars long, go to silence at the end of the 16th bar and then bring on the trap beat.

you have enough music and instrumentation to use for the main drop, you just gotta arrange it a bit differently. the arrangement can borrow a similar chord progression or use the same one.

add in sounds from the intro drop out sounds from the intro, maybe make some new ones.


But use with what you have and just throw in a phat beat and some bass.
