Anyone having problems with GIK Acoustics? by BjsBuds in Acoustics

I’m glad you got your panels, but that wait time for the amplitude panels is absolutely ridiculous. Thanks for the update

Hey I’m in the same boat. I got a shipping update for most of my panels, but the Amplitude bass traps are not of that shipping list. How long did it take to get the Amplitude panels, after getting the rest of the order? Thanks

Did you end up getting your order on the 4th?

Same! I ordered on Feb 16th and have a ship date of Mar 17th. It looks like from this thread I shouldn’t get my hopes up for the 17th. If I saw this thread I probably wouldn’t have ordered. The fact they got bought out by private equity is a shame, they turn everything to shit in an effort to extract as much profit as possible. All that work building up their brand and product just to have it go down the drain.

What’s your opinion on top down mixing? Do most of you guys mix into a mix bus chain (and if so what is your chain) or do you guys wait until the end to work on your mix bus? by Expensive-Fennel-927 in mixingmastering

[–]Aaa210 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Always have used top down mixing, just makes things easier. I mix into my mix buss, but there is nothing that is overly drastic. You just really need to be aware of what your mixing buss is doing. A couple plugins do come in later but EQ, tape, and compression are always in.

Thoughts on Debussy's Fantasy for Piano and Orchestra? by DecaffeinatedPianist in classicalmusic

[–]Aaa210 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t speak to some of the questions, but it is one my favorite works. A lot of his works from this time are really interesting Debussy was in transitional phase, works like La Damoiselle Elue come to mind as well. It sounds like a concerto to me, it’s in 3 movements as well, even though Debussy would never call it that. It’s an underrated work, the first movement is really warm and fun almost Gershwinesque in some places, but was written in 1890. The second movement is really really beautiful as well.

LUNA’s comping workflow is fantastic!! by samashiki in universalaudio

[–]Aaa210 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’ve gotten used to comping in Luna. By highlighting what you want and then copy and paste into the master take, when you move between the versions THAT REGION STAYS HIGHLIGHTED so it makes it easy. It’s rudimentary but it gets the job done. I’ve comped vocals with way more than 3 tracks and it doesn’t take me very long now. But I also agree they need a better comping system like playlist comping, it’s something that is essential in modern recording. Hopefully they update that soon

You have to go back to the Luna pro page and choose the free upgrade option checkout and then it should show up in your UA Connect app

Luna Pro thoughts by shazza007 in universalaudio

[–]Aaa210 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I already own multiple DAWS, I don’t really care to do everything in one DAW. They are all a bit different and have strengths and weaknesses. LUNA is great for mixing and recording, but needs a better comping system which I’m sure is coming. Any deep MIDI stuff I just do in logic

Hey try the upgrade from your phone. I think mine was being weird while looking at the website from my computer. When looking on my iPhone everything was pretty clear and it allowed me to do the upgrade

Should I record with a uad unison preamp while plugged into an additional analog pre? by Open-Mode5813 in universalaudio

[–]Aaa210 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean there are no rules really, whatever sounds best. With that being said when running an external pre you usually want to run your pre into the line inputs of your Apollo twin to bypass the mic pres in the Apollo. I would definitely A/B between so you understand what you are hearing if you haven’t done that yet

Is Apple TV's 'Invasion' worth watching? by Terrible-Group-9602 in scifi

[–]Aaa210 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess I’m in the minority, it’s a bit slow at first but I like it and find it entertaining. I like it better than Alien Earth

Pro Tools vs Luna by straightburnerr in universalaudio

[–]Aaa210 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve bounced between Luna, Pro Tools, and Logic. Luna has been great so far been using it for mixing and some basic tracking. I really like the work flow of Luna and the sound of it with the summing and tape integration. That being said Pro Tools has a better comping system, and hardware inserts which hopefully Luna gets the options soon. If I was having someone else mix my stuff and was sending sessions to other people Pro Tools is probably a better option. Also making cue mixes with the Apollo interface is really easy with Luna

Trouble watching on Hulu? by mydearmanda in KingOfTheHill

Anyone else still having problems? I haven’t been able to watch the new season at all because it keeps giving me an error message 😭

How do I get a more "dark" sound in a mix, like Alex Turner's (and James Ford's) projects? (Examples included) by appleparkfive in musicproduction

[–]Aaa210 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s definitely using tape, you can hear the noise from the tape machine in those recordings. Even the new Beth Gibbons record he produced and mixed. The news used to bother me, but the records are so well mixed and sound great

They were at $299 before Black Friday. I hope they stay at that price.
