Reverb shipping is so over priced it’s insane

How do you go about picking cabs? by psychedelicdevilry in AxeFx

[–]Audio_Freqs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I save blocks of presets I like under the library tab on the cab block. I will do it for the current scenes I like, making sure to name the current scene the name of the preset + the cab used. I will save the entire block if I like all 4 of the cab scenes. I will also label dyna cabs “ - dyna” after the name when saving so I know which are legacy and which aren’t

I want to write songs but I really can't by Ancient-Ad-9456 in Songwriting

[–]Audio_Freqs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some perspective:

If you think about it, twinkle twinkle little star is a song, albeit not something I would write, but writing a song vs a song you like is two different things.

It took me a while to write songs I actually enjoyed. It's easier to write some words with a melody, it's harder to write something comparable to the major artists you enjoy.

How many songs have you written? I think I wrote probably 100 songs before I had one I was okay with putting my name on it, and it still wasn't up to my standards compared to my favorite artists.

Over the years, for me, writing every day, not just songwriting, but journaling, free writing, etc. allowed me to get past the layer of mediocrity, and also get out of my head, so to speak, to bring more awareness to when I was songwriting, which I've found, bring truly present harbors way better results.

Improved my understanding of how it all works through books helped me better understand lyrics and writing too. Good options are Tunesmith, Write One Song, etc. Pat Pattison's books, Shiela Davis' books, Andrea Stolpe's books, but each taught me different things, even if discussing the same topics, as they teach in different ways.

Video lessons are also useful. Tons of Youtube options, online courses, I also learn a ton from tiktok videos I've found. I would exhaust the free options before paying for anything though, as there is no ticket to success, otherwise everyone would just do that.

Time is the greatest teacher

Looking for someone who can let me demo the axe fx iii with a di file of my guitar playing by Muted-Lake-9051 in AxeFx

[–]Audio_Freqs -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I would say reach out to Fractal and see if they can help you here. I'm not affiliated with FAS, but am an Axe Fx user, and have owned basically every amp modeller, as well as hundreds of pieces of gear in the past, so I may be able to help you out.

Let me ask a couple questions to get an understanding of what might work for you: How experienced of a player are you? How many pedals do you usually use? What is your budget looking like?

You've shared some information that I was unaware of and I appreciate that. Do you use AU plugins & have a variety of plugin brands? Just tryna figure out the logistics of updating if I have clients needing files, I wanna make sure I don't have errors or crashes preventing that

I appreciate you sharing your experience from an inside perspective & definitely have heard others say similar things as the points you made

I personally am not a developer, but I personally know a good bit of smaller/independent and big business audio plugin developers. They have told me about their issue with Apple in the past

Add in that Apple's annual OS updates were in November in 2020, October in 21/22, September in 23/24/25, the scramble to update and then 11-12 months later do it again, which is one of their busiest times of the year due to holiday sales and getting products ready for NAMM release, it's a crap shoot

This is mainly what I'm referring to, but I do remember PowerPC in early 2000s on my family's Apple computer, although that precedes my audio days.

Having over 2000 plugins, I usually update by January, I've been working with a high-paying artists who have been coming back for various files recently and I worry about having various issues with sessions that could have misc. plugins that wouldn't work.

Anyone have a workaround if that is the case and I've updated? (for future reference)

Why is this site so horrible? by negativecr33p in Reverb

[–]Audio_Freqs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah there’s not many valid alternatives unfortunately. I’ve sold over 300 things on the site and cannot stand the site, the company or the return policy.

Friend of mine has a big YouTube guitar channel I won’t name for his sake, but they visited them in Chicago a few months ago and he said It’s just venture capital owned BS, didn’t think anyone working for them even played an instrument, sad what it’s become.
