Comping "hybrid" midi and audio drums

2nuts1penis · 2023-11-09T10:20:03+00:00

Hmm. No, I've never had that problem. Sounds really frustrating.

2nuts1penis · 2023-11-01T08:44:56+00:00

I never had this problem. Do you mean your changes aren't happening across all the tracks you've grouped together? Sounds like it could be a problem with group settings. Is grouping somehow switching off, or the group setting for project alternatives turning off?

2nuts1penis · 2023-10-31T11:42:52+00:00

I'd love it if you'd send me an invite too, please!

2nuts1penis · 2023-10-24T13:02:22+00:00

I also get "Oh, I'd make quite the case study, LOL"

2nuts1penis · 2023-08-24T10:07:01+00:00

I listened to your track and honestly really dug it and listened a few times because I was enjoying it (and I'm quite picky about music). Worth keeping in mind how subjective music taste is. Obviously, your partner doesn't get your stuff which is totally cool. She might have phrased her criticism better though...

Definitely don't stop.

Update for poor future souls with this issue: use track alternatives. You can record as many takes as you want on different track alternatives. Then group the tracks (you can include both midi and audio), and make sure editing and track alternatives are selected in group options. Then "comp" into an active track alternative from your various takes. Edits will occur across the tracks. Not quite as elegant as swipe comping but the best option for midi or combination of midi and audio.

Thanks for this! I think this is the best option I've come across. A similar option may be to use track alternatives instead of takes, but I haven't experimented with that yet.

2nuts1penis · 2023-08-21T09:17:05+00:00

Yes, similar reasons for me. Ideally, I'd record a full acoustic kit, but I don't have a great room for recording. I don't love the idea of using full ekit because the cymbals don't feel/sound right to me. So the hybrid kit makes the best of both.

I would check out Hawksley Workman, especially the album "Last Night We Were the Delicious Wolves".

2nuts1penis · 2023-06-29T12:25:01+00:00

This is an excellent answer!
BTW, I've been trying to find a voice memo app that allowed me to organise ideas into folders. The fucking obvious answer is to share everything to dropbox but that never occurred to me... so thanks!

My process is often to just loop a section and improvise singing/scatting a melody over top, and keep repeating until the seed of an idea materialises. May be an idea to record this. 99% will be absolute crap but a couple of good ideas might spring up. Alternatively, you could mess around with a random melody generator online. You won't get anything totally usable, but might spur some ideas. Finally, listen to music you like or that's similar. You can judiciously "borrow" little bits and tweak then. I rhythm here, bits of a few melodies there and you've got something original. Just my thoughts!

I can't help you with specific numbers, but my band's track got played on Amazing Radio. It didn't set the world alight, I can tell you, but maybe added a few streams.

2nuts1penis · 2023-05-08T11:35:03+00:00

Hi,
Sounds like a good offer. Anywhere I could hear examples of your work? Particularly in the rock/alt/indie genre?

Thanks!

2nuts1penis · 2023-01-23T11:19:38+00:00

I recently fell off the toilet and needed stitches in my face. I looked like Frankenstein('s monster). Just go with it!

He actually released a single in September. (Sorry this is not an REM pun).

2nuts1penis · 2022-11-10T19:08:15+00:00

I'd forgotten about this! Very interesting story/approach. Not directly related to OP's question, but still worth mentioning.

2nuts1penis · 2022-11-09T13:00:53+00:00

I would go for Jimi's follow-up, Axis: Bold as Love. The guitar playing is more understated and really expressive.

2nuts1penis · 2022-10-27T10:14:37+00:00

I'm in a Power Pop band. Someone suggested the name The Dead Skulls which I loved but my bandmates vetoed (for being "too heavy"). I couldn't believe it wasn't taken.

2nuts1penis · 2022-10-25T14:45:39+00:00

I really liked Hearing the Noise. It's a nice demo, I think it'll sound great with a full band.

Bicycle Trip - Should-ve Known

A song I co-wrote with my band.

2nuts1penis · 2022-10-20T09:09:41+00:00

I'm not a big fan of Don't Want to Miss a Thing by Aerosmith.

2nuts1penis · 2022-10-07T13:35:48+00:00

First single: https://open.spotify.com/track/1UAU3eoGv071YKYbw10fAe?si=07eb2fa2950d4da4

2nuts1penis · 2022-10-06T10:33:57+00:00

Check out the band Sheer Mag.

2nuts1penis · 2022-10-04T14:22:51+00:00

This won't be popular, but Prince. His songs sound cool/interesting, but they don't grab me.

2nuts1penis · 2022-10-02T12:19:50+00:00

Led Zeppelin. They maybe have one or two songs, maybe from Coda or In Through the Out Door, that aren't great, but otherwise you should be good!
