What's the weakest part of your production?

[phrex]

i'm not very happy with my basslines.
not talking about hte pressure or something (imho it's not understandable why so many people ask how a heavy sub is made...).
i'm talking about the...... thing i can't say haha...

it's probably just the right feel to it i'm still looking for.

i've been a bass player for nigh on 20 years now, so i shouldn't have a problem writing basslines. in fact the writing part i think i'm ok on, i can mostly get the groove i'm after with drums, bass and harmony, but i do stumble on melody, partly because i'm really picky and over critical of cheese-levels.

after a bit of a purple patch of producing i'm finding myself stuck in loops trying to break out of them and progress, but as my house, job and health are all a little in danger, i'm not suprised!

what i'm liking about moving over to making 'bass music' is the range of beats, feelings and tempos i can play around with, the only problem is narrowing down. i say 'only' problem, it's a biggy!

My weakest part is definitely my intros. I don't know why, but I just can't get an interesting, full intro. Like someone posted above me, maybe it's time to get a midi keyboard

Your sig quote, is immense.

I think my main problem it always seems is getting my noises to sound wide enough, its been an ongoing issue. I also would like to know more about classical music composition and orchestration and how to use more "old world instruments" wrather than mostly synths. Also I know my knowledge of compression/limiting is still developing but I can always seem to learn more about those types it seems.

taking so long to finish tracks that by the end, i start hating what i've made

For me It's defently adding builds and declines on my songs.
They usually have a pretty constant volume, and I find it extremely hard to get a good build going.
And then have the beat drop.
I find it very hard to link those two together and smooth it out.

Making my tracks sound "full" I think. I don't think I've developed a bassline I'm really fond of. Need more variation in my drums, more interesting fills etc.
I always get pissed whenever the waveform doesn't look big or give off enough sound to look good when you put it into Traktor.

[advocate]

knowing when to stop tweaking sounds/arrangement/etc id say

[DJ Crackle]

not sucking dick
not getting ENTIRELY too caught up in the technical side
not immediately wanting to sound like everyone else
being good
etc

- ahem

I'm not very proficient in Algebra and I don't understand C++ code

[SilentGhost]

effects for me...I can never decided what to use or when to use them.

[lloydy]

Leaving my ps3 alone long enough to get shit done lol.Also starting new stuff about every other day then getting lost when going back to other projects where i have to much going on to work out what is what.

[zerbaman]

I'm another bassline hater atm
Before, I knew nothing about getting sounds right, as soon as I learn. The writer's block hits...

FML...

[PR1NCE]

Mixing is wayyy to difficult for me, but imo im sure it is for majority.. transitions / endings are a bitgg of a predicament for me as well but practice makes perfect. got to go after the difficult things to get it some how..

[sixth sense]

starting anything and typical theory at this point in time

[WeBang]

making Nero snares lol

[Wrigzilla]

Putting more effort into my mixdowns than the actual tune bit of my productions.

[NinjaEdit]

Right now it's the space part of "space, pace and bass." I'm going to focus on leaving more space in my compositions.

Previously, I had problems with hihats and structure. I resolved these by programming hats subtractively (paste a bunch, then delete some) and by including a break and build in the middle.

[test_recordings]

Programming drums. I can get a kind of rhythm but jungle breaks still elude me
