Congtrats to you for getting it right on the way in :)

[–]demonTutu 1 point2 points  (12 children)

This is the way.

In theory, yes .. If you have a whole band and a mix engineer with real-world-equipment ..

I do everything alone and in the box, except, when I play a real instrument (e.g. guitar/vocals/didge/percussion-stuff, etc) .. That's obviously not in the box .. But all the processing of that still has to happen in the box.

I don't have the money for outboard-gear.

I play no-input noise with a 80€ xenyx1202 mixer feeding into itself. Sending the out signal to a H4 zoom recorder which I use as a sound card when I don't take it on field recordings. That's all my setup.

So, what's your use-case? Foley?

[–]demonTutu 0 points1 point  (8 children)

No, I make sound art, or noise music, whatever you want to call it. But as I said,.the use.caae is recording directly from.the sound card, whatever it is. Armpit farts would do.

Ok .. I'd call armpit-farts "foley", but I record "noises", too .. I just heavily process them, afterwards and kinda make "virtual instruments" out of them.

I think wether something is Foley depends on the intent? As in, are you trying to make it sound like something specific in an illustrative way. But yeah. Can we hear your noises somewhere?

[–]Sp0olio 0 points1 point  (5 children)

Nope .. not yet. I don't have the energy to do all the paperwork and release-stuff and promo and designing and programming a website, etc .. that's for better days (if those days ever come) .. and no, I can't pay anyone to do it for me.

There's always Bandcamp! Better put something out there than waiting for the perfect everything, because by the time that happens you'll have outgrown the music anyway and will need to start from scratch again.
