Re: Carrousel de Vie - Choices [classical dubstep metal chip

Glad I could be of help! As for the drums: analog drums aren't exempt from FX :-)

Is there a faster way to resample in FL other than bouncing the track out via Export?

Re: EQ plugin with a keyboard-follow-option?

If you want a fresh copy of the whole track but you want to keep the clip where its at there's "Make Unique" which will clone the track and make the target clip point to the new track.. This is another flaw with FL, in other DAW's you copy a clip in the playlist, and you edit that, and th...

Re: EQ plugin with a keyboard-follow-option?

fl resamples so quickly it is a joke. Compared to other DAW where you can one click bounce to a new track, it's slow. In FL you have to bounce/record the track, then open up the file, then place it in the right place, then set the level, then put it on a mixer track, then name the track, then colou...

Re: Filling out the stereo field with drums...

I definitely agree that stereo delays van break things but if done conservatively you can avoid a lot of the clashing. Mono panning is great when you are layering, so that you don't "lean" the mix too far when only a few panned instruments are active

Re: Where do they promote their stuffs??

the artist should be focussed on creating quality original work. if the music is good enough it will do it's own promotion (send it to labels and djs obviously) it will get played in sets, it'll get signed for releases, featured in magazines etc. generate it's own hype it just seems that so often (...

Re: Filling out the stereo field with drums...

Maybe when you are doing stereo delay, but not when you are using Waves Doubler. Top mixing engineers use it all over the world to make literally ANYTHING more stereo. And it doesn't MULTIPLY your existing stereo content, it generates it. Why am I arguing doe, it's your loss not mine. So using a de...

Re: Where do they promote their stuffs??

Firstly, a disclaimer: I'm just an amateur electronic music producer, give me some slack! About DJing: I see what your saying- but I'm not a DJ- I don't particularly enjoy DJ'ing other people's tracks, that's just not what I've been doing. I've been studying music production because I enjoy it. I pr...

Re: Where do they promote their stuffs??

Your advice is good, but not sure what your missing about my statement there-- unless I'm just going to go and cross fade my tracks together which is kind of lame.

And few people I know who like dubstep care about radio

I guess I meant accurate monitors, though perhaps the laugh is that the systems people listen on never are?

Re: Just a comparison from vinyl to digital releases in cost

I read this whole thread thinking "why is there any cost to digital at all?" I understand that a distributor takes a cut of each record, but it seems like this discussion centers around *barrier to entry* as opposed to per-song percentages... If you bundle your songs into an album, you wil...

Re: Where do they promote their stuffs??

While this advice is good for DJs, who primarily perform mixes live- for producers it is often the reverse where the music is created without live elements and then live elements are designed around the music. I'd love to go and "play my music live" but honestly without a lot of work (and ...

Re: How do you go about processing your piano's?

Filters can be useful (in moderation) to simulate older mediums like vinyl, and EQ can be used to emphasize the mid range. If you choose to detune, do so extremely sparingly unless you have no other melodic components nearby. My pet peeve is hearing overtly detuned piano next to something perfectly ...

Re: Filling out the stereo field with drums...

Stereo spreading is important to move the sound around in the space so that sounds in similiar frequency ranges can coexist. But over using them as hubb pointed out will cause large parts of the sound to disappear. Ultimately any stereo spreader plugin is doing a delay as its core. You can attain a ...

Re: Unleashed - dotflv (Dubstep)

Firstly, the drop is totally sick. It sounds totally fantastic. Production and mixing of the overall song is just hella smooth. You've got skillz for sure. Perhaps you could vary up the tones/settings or phrases of the primary synth during the drop though, as it feels like it is not varied enough to...

Nu:Steppa This is pretty awesome throughout! Beat is hella sick, jumps right out.

Re: gN - Violint (Original Mix)

The beat is flying off the track, that's a good thing! Definitely give yourself more credit. I hope your depression subsides :-) In the intro it seems like you are doing a volume/gain envelope on the kick from low gain to the regular volume it sits at for most of the track. During this part, the sna...
