I swear it gets worse every day. I'm getting so riled by the n00bs posting idiotic threads that each new one that comes along gets a bigger earful than the last. Soon I'm just gonna shout "tnuc!" at them, piss their shoes clean then bite their ear lobes off...oddly enough I'm quite a placid guy irl. This forum brings out the worst in me.

I wish I could just walk away but the amount of time I spend on here would be pretty hard to replace.

solution: members are required to fill out a comprehensive test before being allowed to post?

Thats just silly, lots of people come here to get help. It's not a special club for regulars to talk about super advance techniques (that don't even happen).

Being a wise (questionable) old regular, I have found the forum to thrive on noobs. They gave us all are rolls to play on here, with out them not much would happen around here, cause they start most of the threads. most of the noobs die out, but the ones that survive their noob days turn into shadow helpers. They help the new noobs that no one else can be fucked to help, they slow build up there post count, and feel they have become a regular, and have now lost there noob badge. So they start to help everyone they can, and help all the noobs they can, but they get bored of that, becuase they are sick of helping them all with the same questions (HOW MAK DA SKRILLEXZZZZ BASSLINEZZZZZZ????). so they start to partake in forum in jokes (alpaca's :Q: ) now they go through a phase of mocking noobs, and getting pissed off by them.Then one day they realize, how the circle of life works on the forum, and realize that their job is done, and they can take a back seat, and watch the forum flow (may have to step in to help the flow once, and a while) because their are others who fill these rolls that are needed to keep the forum running how it does.

can someone help me out ? probs a simple question, what a happy thread this is.

i'll see some albums that'll have text saying 'written, produced, arranged, and mixed' by artist. what's the difference in steps between arranging and mixing? So writing, essentially, I get it, you write the music, i.e. come up with the ideas, melodies, rythms and so on. produce, okay makes sense, now you need to make sound out of those ideas, filter this, compress that, ight cool. Arrange....uhhh, arrange the different instruments? could that not fall under production? and then mixing, like mixing down? :/

I'll assume arrange just simply refers to being able to make your track flow once it's down. Having your ideas completely finished. taking out certain parts for radio edit's etc.. There's always grey area's.

For mixing, you got it man' Making your EQ's perfected and putting that finishing filter on after you've had it taken off from the master track for a while.

I can always be wrong though. :cornlol:

Order that I personally go. >Ideas down with filter off> Compress and EQ a little to differentiate the sounds right> Arrange those ideas because sometimes it'll be better to put another part first, over the other part. > Compress and EQ to the exact sound you want> Filter on with automation clips of volume back on. and of course if you've got an extremely awesome track. Taking it wav files piece by piece and reforming it back after working on each sound seperately. In a quick post anyway, sorry for any unclear stuff

You guys are in high school? I'm thinking of volunteering to teach a class on computer music production afterschool at my old high school, you think students would be interested?
Probably! wouldn't doubt it! Not sure how I missed that post from over a year ago


Somehow stumbled upon this really late..... lol
Probably, I'm not in high school but at my uni I'm sitting in at a class at 8am for shits n giggles not even enrolled. It's crazy, theres like 36 students enrolled and some of them are actually here on dsf. I actually got a lol out of it, the teacher called on some girl and asked what kinda music she wants to make...... "jump up dubstep" lol!
before this year/semester MAYBE there would be like 8-10 students. but 36? holeee shit

I live near magic mountain though, in a town called Santa Clarita, about 30 min from la

Nope, I live right down the street though. I'll be going to CSUN soon, maybe in a semester or two after I can get myself on a consistent income.
