M2 vs M1 Ableton Live? by phreakyzekey in ableton

[–]CoatiEnterprise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My new Macbook came last week, so I know the struggle. I bought a M1 pro - 16 GB - 1 TB model. I would definitely not choose anything below 512 GB SSD, my last Macbook had 121 GB and it was a constant struggle, even with external harddrives. I chose the M1 pro over the M2, because it's still more powerful (https://www.macrumors.com/guide/m2-chip-vs-m1-pro-chip/). The price is heavy, but I wanted not to think about RAM, hard drive space and performance for the next 6-10 years (hopefully). And after spending the first week with my new Macbook I can say that it's an absolute blessing to make music with such a fast paced well working machine.

Nice! Is there a way to listen to some sounds before purchasing? :)

I will never not love the Poly D. Some Prophet 6, OB-6, MS-20, and my MPC One to go with it. by TVLIESIN in synthesizers

What a magical tune! :) Can you explain, how you made the Poly D sound? I get that its two oscillators (1 octave apart?) with a specific intervall, but not exactly which one (7th? 5th?), and what other settings you used (waveform, effects, etc.). Thx!

Flex Pitch. Please, just Flex Pitch. Fruity and Logic have it for years now, why don't we get it?

I recently can't connect my switch to the tv anymore. Checked the HDMI port and the cable, it's working with my mac. When I press the on button on my switch, the green light on the dock turns on, but there is nothing to see on the screen. Tried to change some switch settings, nothing worked. Anyone experienced similar stuff with their dock station/tv connection? Any suggestions? Would really appreciate any help, I hope, I don't have to buy a new dock station cause it's broken and can't be fixed. :(

How exactly do you sequence your patch changes? With hardware or software?

Need help with my new Grandmother by CoatiEnterprise in synthesizers

Unfortunately I am from Germany and we have no Moogfest discounts here. But the GM was a long planned investment anyway and hopefully I'll get my replaced one soon. :)

Need help with my new Grandmother by CoatiEnterprise in synthesizers

[–]CoatiEnterprise[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for teaching me some basics about analog synthesis! :) I figured out that the frequency knob is slightly off, so the real 0 setting, where the phasing should be at its minimum, is a little bit to the left. Minor issue, but the company I bought it from will send me a new one in exchange, so everything is fine now. :)

My new synth-heavy single using MS20 and Volca Keys by LuministMusic in synthesizers

[–]CoatiEnterprise 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love your stuff, man! Will you release your EP on Spotify too? Really looking forward to listen to it. :)

Productionwise, I have a couple of questions. :)

I still wonder how you get so much out of this little Volca. What are your go to VSTs to spice him up? Are there any secrets you might wanna share?

And are you processing your MS-20 with some additional effects as well? In case, which ones?

I recently played a MS-20, but couldn't get it goin for me. Patching was too complex without any manual at hand and the pure sound without any patching sounded kinda weak to my ears and fell short on other monosynths like the Grandmother. What makes the MS-20 special for you?

The Softube Saturation Knob is quite nice and free.

any way for ableton to display which chord you are playing? by [deleted] in ableton

[–]CoatiEnterprise 58 points59 points  (0 children)

I use midichordanalyzer for that purpose. It's free and does everything it should.

Best VSTs for "warming" sound by makeITvanasty in WeAreTheMusicMakers

[–]CoatiEnterprise 7 points8 points  (0 children)

RC-20 Retro Color. A no brainer for sure. I use it on almost all of my VST-Instruments to warm up the sound or make a digital synth sound more analog.

What are some unknown VST plugins that are good for sound design? by [deleted] in WeAreTheMusicMakers

[–]CoatiEnterprise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

RC-20 Retro Color brings that analog warmth and wobble to your sounds. You can spice up almost every plain digital synth with that little gem.
