What Production Topics Do You Want Explained?

Post by jayou » Sat Feb 19, 2011 11:47 am

Yo everyone -

I recently started a new website: sickchirpse.com - check it out.

I'll be starting a music production section soon covering all aspects of making a tune, getting it out there, doing the promo for it and getting it to labels. I want to know what topics people would most want covered, let me know!

Peace

Starting a new song (without the usual "start with a beat" crap - that doesn't get you anywhere unless you want br00tal brostep, which isn't what i'm after) but i guess that's a lil bit too hard, so

FM synthesis :D

Yeah, well, how do i start then? I have a lot of troubles with that. As soon as i find something catchy, the rest follows easily, but it's that first step that's hard...

And Nacklewicket, there's not a lot of physics in a limiter - all it does is it takes down the loud places so you get a straight and low volume (and so the loud and soft things now are closer to eachother in audiblity) and then it takes it up to around 0 db.

But yeah, i as well would like to know how to master (without going to a billion different posts that contradict eachother in the moneyshot thread)

That's where being creative comes in. You couldn't write a tutorial on that!
