Here, you post the most ridiculous, funny, stupid, ignorant, etc. comments that you've heard regarding music production.
Here are a few of mine:

A friend of my friend wrote:Electronic-based music takes no skill. Real music comes from shredding your soul out on a guitar

No doubt that takes talent, but come on! I'd seriously like to see your favorite guitarist krank out a simple drum beat on a computer within an hour

The same friend of my friend wrote:Autotuning is the same thing as remixing

Really? That's interesting! Now tell me who told you that lol

My friend Josh wrote:That's so stupid! There's no difference between the volume and the cutoff!

Oh ok

to be perfectly honest, there's probably heaps - but this forum has been so good to me, I'm not about to name names. Everyone has something of value to add.

Can anyone on this forum help me make the skrillex bass?

This is stupid because if anyone here could, they'd be out raking in the dough, not answering silly questions

that or they just find it to be an extremely grating and obnoxious sound altogether

My friend last night said that Skrillex was shit...

WIFE MATERIAL.

But that's not the part relating to this thread, she told me her brother said something along the lines of "Isn't all electronic music a remix?"

If you felt that way about it, why would you bother finding out how to make it?

i know how to design all sorts of annoying sounds i'd never use, goes with sound design and reverse engineering things

you don't need to name names lol...i told of real things being said, not of forums but in real life so you can embarass your cousin or best friend or something

"I don't care if it's booming into the red! It sounds good!.."

I then proceeded to slap that boy into reality.

I've read and heard so much dumb shit since I started producing music.

I can't even begin to list it all.

list some stuff that would embarass people on this thread lol jk

All of this thread;

stupidest things you have ever heard during a session. - GearSlutz

Even if you're not down on a few of the finer technical fnar fnar fnar points, it's fucking hilarious. Start at the beginning and just read through.

Lee "Scratch" Perry used to push it into the red all the time....If it sounds good, do it.

This and one friend who plays guitar once told me

You can't read or write music, but you just make it anyway? You're so lazy

Surely making music is about what you can contribute and not being able to read some squiggly lines on a peice of paper?
And, would I be wrong in assuming that if you know all of that, making tunes would then be easier?
I was gonna say something else, but remembering this made me so angry I forgot

i love how you guys get wound up by an actual musician telling you that pissing around on a midi sequencer isnt making real music.

newsflash: its not.

it's equally amusing how lost real musicians are in those same applications and when it comes to connecting their guitar to an audio interface

Anyway, it's a bit strange to say "pissing around on a midi sequencer isnt making real music". What's real music?
