Re: So, James Blake's...



o?

I like James Blake and all, but his version of this doesn't seem like anything special to me. I like Feists original. I couldn't find a high quality of the album version, but it's pretty similar as well.

Re: question about monitors low end to go with subwoofer

Not particularly. It can be nice to have monitors with a decent low end response so as to listen to your mix downs without a sub to see if your low end is audible without one, which may or may not be an issue for the music you're making, but worth being aware of.

Re: Mac Production Essentials?

audio hijack - use it to record what is playing on your soundcard or individual programs.
audacity - its free, & sometimes ya need to just meddle with the waves.
Perian - this is a add on for quicktime, the only decent player on mac for FLV files.

Mac Production Essentials?

Hey there! I just got a Macbook pro, my first mac since my big fruity iMac years ago, and as I've been out of the Mac loop for some time I was hoping to hear from some current mac users on what their essential apps and plugins are.

(Aside from logic and other well known multi-platform softwares ...

Re: how to create thick basslines by splitting freq. in ableton?

This thread is a bit old, but as I was goolging some Ableton split stuff and stumbled upon this post, I figured I'd share my way.

It's really easy, allows saving of your fx chains, and is just about transparent.

Make an effect rack
Put a multiband compressor into it.
Set the amount to 0%
Set your ...

Re: STUPID ABLETON QUESTION..

On the topic of Ableton drumracks I was reminded of a neat trick. The sampler doesn't give you lfo's to work with on samples, but the drum rack does. So, you can take a straight sample of a bass and duplicate it to however many pads on the drumrack you want, then set each at different LFO speeds ...

Re: Rusko using presets??

Rusko has made, and I'm sure is still capable of making, awesome tracks. But he also seems really lazy of late. The average dubstep fanboy eats it up regardless, and rusko makes the $$ so I can't say I blame him. Though I hope he strays away from the cheese he's been putting out recently.
