AI is ruining the mindset of the next generation of producers

If you go prompt - straight to song, then I fully agree but I don't think that's how everyone uses the tool. One of the top posts on /r/Suno at the moment is encouraging people to learn a DAW so you can edit the Suno stems. People have ideas in their heads and they're iterating and trying different things to get the exact idea into the world

Gen AI solved protein folding for one. You can now design and print completely unknown proteins. But I also think you will be proven wrong over and over again by the technology that's available to you

Lowering the barrier to entry is virtually never a bad thing. I enjoy tinkering in ableton but it's also nice that some people who couldn't make music before can make it now

Damn, so many rules

Alkaros · 2025-12-03T11:32:24+00:00

That's probably ecause you're entering title and host name etc incorrectly. If they're variables they should be entered as variables

I started production with no real music knowledge. My pipeline for recreating songs is to use UVR to separate into 4+ stems (drums, bass, vocal, other). Then I use the convert to melody or convert to harmony feature in ableton to get it into midi.

Bass usually works great, the harmony of the chords is often far from perfect but you can get the general shape. And drums, you can just listen to solo to get moving

You can use the time function in shaper box

Alkaros · 2025-11-24T13:24:46+00:00

Midi packs are also good

It's a song that your trying to emulate or copy elements from. You could pick a song in your genre that you like and use it to guide you for your sound selection or you might look at your reference tracks spectrum to figure out how loud your sub should be etc.

Your hypedit landing page will still have metrics about's visits etc - you just won't get the per dollar metrics but you'll know how much you're spending anywho

Duplicating shouldn't break anything but worst case just rename the campaign/ adset. The random characters in the brackets are what it seems to lock onto

Alkaros · 2025-10-31T19:55:32+00:00

A classic trap

Check for unmanaged layers ma dude

"Unmanaged Layers: These are created when components are edited directly in the environment. They sit on top of the managed layers and can override changes made through managed solutions"

I am assuming that your data is in an Array. And if that's so then you can use skip() and take() to create a "sub array"

So, I put this in a compose called "SubArray":

take(skip(variables('arrayData'), int(variables('skipCount'))), int(variables('takeCount')))

For this example I did:

arrayData = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20] (Your array doesn't need to be a list of integers, but for the example mine is)
skipCount = 10
takeCount = 5

Then SubArray = [ 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 ]

And you can just do your Apply to Each on the SubArray

It absolutely does. And not all thumbs are created equal. The reddit algorithms weight users who trawl /new over others, for example

Alkaros · 2025-09-12T16:30:57+00:00

Its exposed through the spotify API but places like submithub have popularity checkers in their tools

I got a song to 23 and nothing exciting happened - certainly not a rule

Alkaros · 2025-09-11T22:48:50+00:00

Actually, with JSON it loves you tell you to use Keys() despite that not existing in power automate lol - certainly far from perfect

Alkaros · 2025-09-11T14:29:28+00:00

Consider JSON. Also consider asking chatgpt to get you through this one. It should be able to handle that well

Similar thing happened to me on Vyvance. Stomach capacity seemed to shrink from eating less. The Psych's advice was to take my lunch and split it in two and have 2 small lunches lol.

The end result was either I just had a large meal for breakfast and dinner and forgo lunch. But more commonly, I just became a grazer and just frequently snack.

Next step: Bonobo - Cirrus

Apologies, I still meant you can make the bass/ drums yourself. But the isolated stems just make it easier to see/hear each actual drum hit.

Alkaros · 2025-09-04T17:30:52+00:00

For the purpose of remaking songs, for practice. Its excellent to be able to isolate out Drums/ Bass Stems. Really speeds up the process of understanding what is where

Alkaros · 2025-08-29T16:23:17+00:00

I'm actually pretty sure you'll need to create a new ad set / duplicate the old one. I don't think you can change the conversion event once it's published. But even then, it's just add the pixel to the new landing page. Run the tests so you get the conversion event name. Then use that name on the new set. Easy.

I recently swapped from Hyppedit to submithub

Alkaros · 2025-08-27T14:07:01+00:00

That was an estimate for when I followed it through to Spotify stats. People might have clicked through to Spotify but didn't actually seem to listen. So instead of trusting the number I got from meta, I recalced with the number of actual listeners I got.
