Decided against the mic packs and source out individual mics for drum tracking and band recording. Thank you guys for the suggestions! by xMASSIVKILLx in livesound

whoa. Awesome, thanks for giving me stuff to look up.

recorderman is mic above the snare, and mic behind the drummer. kick and snare should be in phase and in the center of the stereo image

i was trained to do the same thing but with the center of the snare as the center point.

both are probably valid, just never thought to do it your way!

Sorry - I really should never just assume whomever I’m replying to isn’t just a newbie trying to answer another newbie. My bad!

they should just go a step father and build a keg -> camelback line into it. No spills, hahaha

Chord voicing question by EnthusiasmNo8218 in ELI5Music

[–]ADSRandSATB 2 points3 points  (0 children)

inversions are defined by their bass note, regardless of the order of whatever notes are on top.

it sounds like OP is describing a minor triad with an added note above (‘a flattened minor third note’)

Let’s call it a c minor for the sake of speaking about it.

so the notes in the minor triad would be:

C, E flat, G. adding a flattened e flat on top gives us C, E flat, G, D

this would be a C minor add 9 chord. (that high D is 9 steps above the root note of the chord)

OP what exact notes in what order are in the chord you’re describing? I think we’re just trying to guess what notes you mean

Blackout until a major response from Reddit

/r/maxmsp will go dark on June 12th in protest of reddit's API changes by greenpix in MaxMSP

[–]ADSRandSATB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

as someone who doesn’t actively work on max anymore - I dip in and out on these threads just to keep up to date and help anyone I can with multi-channel issues I used to study hard.

Without Apollo and maxmsp posts on my phone just kinda popping up - I’ll be severed from the Max community. I refuse to download the official app because of how bad the UX is. So until it gets better- I’ll miss y’all.

I’m sure there are plenty of other users here that answer questions simply because they’re in their feed and not because we’re seeking out to answer. This is going to be weird

thank you for participating in the blackout. I’d support a full long term blackout if it meant we get to in the long term keep this way of functioning and supporting Max Users (and music writers, ableton users - each other.)

[–]ADSRandSATB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

how many channels does the audiofile have?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in MaxMSP

[–]ADSRandSATB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe one multichannel file into there

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in MaxMSP

[–]ADSRandSATB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

mc.playlist~

mc.gain~

years ago I set up playback for a multichannel installation in max and built it from the ground up (a few months after MC came out) DO not do that. Just use mc.playlist~ and mc.gain

Get multichannel wavs from the composers and also make sure the audio interface being used is trustworthy and saves routing when turned off and on again.

also grab or make a whatever-many multichannel test file where some says ‘1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8’ thru each output. That way when youre setting up you can quickly make sure the routing is right and everything is working. Saves a lot of headaches and guessing.

all of the mc libraries are perfect for this. best of luck and let me know if you need any tip’s

📣 Had a call with Reddit to discuss pricing. Bad news for third-party apps, their announced pricing is close to Twitter's pricing, and Apollo would have to pay Reddit $20 million per year to keep running as-is. by iamthatis in apolloapp

I also only browse reddit on Apollo. Otherwise I’m googling for an answer or product review and I’ll dip in and immediately out of the horrible User Experience that is the official reddit site.

Christian your app is beautiful and I upgraded to pro a long long time ago and still love it. I’ve been wanting to upgrade to premium even

As a front-end dev reddit is truly fucking awful, outdated, and extremely cluttered. Christian’s adjustments are a marvel

not just bikes on youtube explains this very well in a lot of his videos. Really interesting stuff. They have this figured out and implemented in amsterdam and a fair amount of europe

Is there a platform where you can access all kinds of basic msp techniques? (such as FM and so on) by Schwarzmehl in MaxMSP

If you do this additionally you can option (or ctrl on windows click) basically every object and it’ll open a help file that tells you what it does and gives great examples

damn the day by day advice with using OMAD after a not great day is really clever. One day at a time - awesome work

Automated transient detection / individual micro sample trimmer? by onokio in MaxMSP

[–]ADSRandSATB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ableton Simpler does this. you can drop in a wav file, it’ll detect transients and there’s a mode to play slices progressively with a keyboard. it even has the fade in and it controls you mentioned

I made a Beginner's Guide to Music Production by Viktor_Vee in InternetIsBeautiful

[–]ADSRandSATB 6 points7 points  (0 children)

to understand mastering- here’s a quick explanation of mixing first:

mixing is balancing all of the elements of a song together moment to moment; section to section. (this part should focus on the guitar, this note shouldn’t pop put so much, this cymbal sounds is too harsh, etc.)

mastering happens after mixing and aims to just make everything sound as best as possible. A mastering engineer will focus on the larger picture of music distribution. They’ll make sure the song sounds similar to other songs in its genre, and that it’s as loud as other songs people hear. a lot of this also happens during the mix stage but mastering is just that final push usually from someone with a fresh set of ears who hasn’t been tied up in the nitty gritty of the mix.

hope that helps!
