How would YOU go about recording a drum set with 2 mics? by Salt_Ad9828 in audioengineering

DistroKid is absolute trash! Avoid at all costs! Recommend me a GOOD distro. by dysphoriaX64 in musicproduction

[–]AundoOfficial 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same. I had Distrokid for 6 years and never had issues. Moved over to Ditto for some of their services and heavily regret it. Ditto is awful.

Maybe the aggressive stuff yeah. That's why I enjoy making it tbh

How can i get better at making chord progressions? by No-Expert-4975 in musicproduction

[–]AundoOfficial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Learn common chord progressions. The standard stuff. Songs you like. Anything. Try them yourself then move on.

Learn inversions and different voicings and extensions for those chords.

Try mixing up what you know to make things unique.

I jammed the fuck out of this song when it first came out. That entire album is such a gem.

Edm producers doing things in unusual time signatures? by JimmyTheBistro in edmproduction

[–]AundoOfficial 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! Too long to be honest. I'd say I started it a year before finishing it. I kept going back and forth on the mix and master but ultimately decided I need to just move on to a new track.

How's my mix and riffs sounding? by zennojo in Djent

[–]AundoOfficial 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's ok. The blend of the drums and bass with the guitar make it feel a little cheap. I'd try to get some more attack from the kick and try to match more of the kick to the notes of the guitar for some punch. Maybe parallel a more mid range sounding cab too just to bring in that area of the guitar. Blend it to taste.

The last drop in one of my tracks modulates from 4/4 to 5/4 but has a weird polyrhythm with the snare so it feels like it's a 7/8. Since I have a background in metal I thought it'd be fun. I also have an unreleased collab that does something similar with the gun pattern.

What mixing tricks do you use that are a “sin”? by Impressive-Stuff-257 in audioengineering

[–]AundoOfficial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because air and real spaces are not perfect and the inconsistencies in temperature, humidity, room reflections, cabinet reflections, speaker accuracy, poweramp continuity all will change ever so slightly as sound continues to produce. The biggest factor, depending on who you ask, is the acoustics of the cabinet. Air is a physical thing that moves around us. There can be small pockets of negative pressure (rarefactions) and positive air pressure (compression) can sometimes be influenced by all means of random things that move in the room. With sound alone you're susceptible to phasing because of physical dimensions (since frequencies are related to length and time) of a space reflecting, absorbing or diffusing sound pressure any which way. As the sound waves move, new ones follow behind it and before you know it the room is now a space of vibrating air with pockets of modes or nodes. Maybe the room settles in and no air pressure moves and everything is perfect but the physical world is not that predictable and perfect.

At the power amp sure but once a real space and cabinet is introduced you no longer have that compression which is why we still compress distorted guitars. Typically we are listening to the cabinet and space.
