I finished a track.
Doesn't sound like much but I rarely manage it!

Re: Multitrack tape recorder
Might sound odd but turn the tape over? As far as I know 4-tracks used both sides of the cassette. I think the full width is normally used for side a left, side a right, side b left and side b right. On a 4-track it uses each bit for a track (not sure how it manages stereo tracks, it's been ages sin...

Re: WORKS IN PROGRESS FOR AUGUST, 2010
Hexa-dB -- Mental bass. Is it layered/resampled or coming straight out of a synth? That's impressive. Thanks :) The bass on the first section started as a Korg Prophecy sound (I think it was a preset "AhaYahYah" or something) with some tweaking of controllers while I recorded it, then it ...

Re: WORKS IN PROGRESS FOR AUGUST, 2010
ok, I'm not much good at giving feedback because I tend to think "Who am I to tell people what's good?". I'm quite new to the whole dubstep thing so my comments may be totally off. I'm also listening through headphones (AKG K270s) which isn't ideal. goldorak - bauhaus -- like the vocal sam...

Re: Large Hadron Collider Sounds
i would have thought the sounds of the large hardon collider would be something akin to a large whale having an orgasm. Yeah they don't quite live up to the description. Shame though, it would be cool to have in a track - "How did you make that bass sound?" "It's a large hadron colli...

Oopps. Unfortunately the Soundcloud player doesn't work through my work connection so I'll have to try and add some feedback for people tonight. Sorry about that!dav.id wrote:you need to give 3 tracks feedback before you post youre own tune

Re: WORKS IN PROGRESS FOR AUGUST, 2010
Ok, this my second attempt at a dubstep(ish?) track. I pretty new to it but have been doing various types of dance/breakbeat/dnb/etc off and on for years. I'm pretty sure it'll get filed under 'talentless brostep' (or worse) but I'm prepared for that :D I learned a lot while making it and I'm reason...

Re: Weird Logic Problem- sudden delayed MIDI response
I'm such an idiot. I forgot that I'd added a reverb on a send just before the problem happened - then wanted to EQ the reverb and decided to poke around the linear phase EQ because I've never used it... As soon as I removed it and swapped it for a normal EQ it was fine.
Idiot.
Idiot.

Re: Weird Logic Problem- sudden delayed MIDI response
At the OP - have you got plug in delay compensation on in the preferences? Logic does do some weird things when you try automating a few parameters occasionally (which is well annoying). I'm still using logic but been writing most stuff in ableton recently but that's not perfect by a long stretch e...

Weird Logic Problem- sudden delayed MIDI response
I was working on a track, adding automation for various effects and when I got to the breakdown section I noticed one of the effects sounds was out of sync. I selected the track and manually played it from a keyboard (it's a small EXS24 bank) and got a delay of around 1/16th-1/8th between hitting th...

Re: *Logic Pro* The history of Logic and (Emagic)
I don't care if it's sad, I've used Logic since v3.5 on the PC and now use v8 on OSX and I enjoyed reading it.
They totally missed out the Audiowerk 2 card though. That card with Logic Audio Platinum on Win98 was my second most stable/useful system (first being my current setup).

Re: Hexdb / HXDB / Hexa-dB
Nope that's not me. I abbreviate it to Hexa-dB most of the time. The annoying thing is that he's obviously better at it than me! The only thing that's been released with my version of that name is a remix on this EP and various mp3s sent to friends/circulated. I used it first but he's better/more fa...

Hexdb / HXDB / Hexa-dB
I've just noticed, when going through the mixes forum, that it looks like there are a few other "Hexa-dB"s. I've been using the name since 1998 (either as Hexa-dB, Hexadecibel or even 0xdB) - gutted :cry: Should I use a different name for my music from now on? How well known is are the oth...

Re: Old And Cheap Hardware?
My first post here so I'll try and make it useful :D May be obvious but If you haven't got a mixer they make things a lot easier. If you gather a lot of external bits (especially if stuff has aux inputs & various sends/returns) then a patchbay can be handy too. At one point the Korg Prophecy was...
