S(m)exoscope Sampler which good editing parameters. A rompler with good banks/shit loads of SoundFonts. My ideology is to learn how to WRITE music before you learn how to MAKE music. Give them the sounds, let them play around and figure out a work flow and let them dig deeper after. Smexoscope to g...

just a warning

I've been doing a lot of reflecting tonight. most hear don't really know my history through EDM but i'll say since 1996 I've been a part of some EDM scene in some shape or form. I've have seen the rise and fall and re-rise of every genre some times several times. And the one thing I keep noticing is...

Re: Building a low budget pc for music production.

lots of bullshit No, an i3 is not the equivalent of a Celeron - the Pentium is the new Celeron and is the budget option for Intel. Then i3, i5 and i7, with the extreme edition i7 at the top. The latest i3 has 2 cores and 4 threads with hyperthreading, but no turbo boost. Sure, it'd be nice to get a...

Re: Just getting in the habit of bouncing, couple Q's

So if all my synths look like massive blocks, doesn't that mean i'm overcompressing? Cause I removed all compressors and it was still a block after flattening.... If ...

Re: Harmony.

i always think of it like thinking of a horn section...its the groove .the accentuated notes on or off beat will be your root/chord. play it with a piano plug-in, the more velocity you pronounce a chord the more accompany should associate it.
