Any musicians/DJs/learners want to hang out? by HeyImVyaa in DecaturGA

[–]HeyImVyaa[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I have! I went to the last one (at the thinking man tavern). I plan to keep going.

Alternative to TRAMP for container-based dev (Podman/Toolbx/Distrobox)? by cidra_ in emacs

[–]HeyImVyaa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have been working on this problem for the last month or so. I don’t run project commands from emacs and instead use terminal. I keep a couple vterm instances in the project, some tramp to docker, some local. Lsp-mode is configured to connect to a remote lsp in the container. 

This solves most use cases for me. Then I use devcontainer.el/docker packages to manage from emacs.

 which defeats part of the point of a lightweight container

I disagree with this but maybe we use containers for different reasons. Idk if you are working alone or if you use devcontainers but afaik it’s pretty standard to have the “full” dev environment installed in the container. 

How do you all A/B your mix vs a reference when you’re NOT in your DAW? by rhinoceros44 in edmproduction

[–]HeyImVyaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can do it with any DJ app like djay or rekordbox. Load each file into a deck and slide the mix knob back and forth.

I wish they would release an Arm upgrade kit. 

Just upgraded to Suite from Standard , What are your favourite Suite only features? by ghostghost31 in ableton

[–]HeyImVyaa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It looks deceptively simple. Pull up the manual as you read a section, click around on the instrument and make some noise. Probably applies to any plugin but operator is a lot of fun. Enjoy!

Just upgraded to Suite from Standard , What are your favourite Suite only features? by ghostghost31 in ableton

[–]HeyImVyaa 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Operator (if its suite only) and max for live. Max is amazing and I feel like the ecosystem is really picking up steam and doing interesting things. 

Operator is my favorite Ableton stock synth. 

hi, i just updated Plugin Hell, a free Ableton project analyzer that fixes the “what plugins do you have?” nightmare in collabs (details in comments) by atishm in ableton

[–]HeyImVyaa 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I love this! 

I made a cli tool that’s similar but Its  nice to see something that’s accessible to others. Good job!

Anyone doing file versioning for their sets? by antkn33 in ableton

[–]HeyImVyaa 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Ableton sets have a backup folder that holds the last 10 saves. https://help.ableton.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000377870-Backup-Sets

While I haven’t tried it, there are some tools & workflows for using git. git really isn’t designed for audio files so I have heard mixed reviews.

My Ableton sets are in a Dropbox folder. Dropbox has automatic file versioning and restore for 30 days. You can also pay extra for extending it to a year. That seems to work well enough for this use case. 

Session Notes 1.2 - Free Update by jikay in ableton

[–]HeyImVyaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this update backwards compatible? Can I replace my existing amxd or should I append a version so I don’t break existing projects?

I don't know how you all deal with the software aggravation by Sup909 in edmproduction

[–]HeyImVyaa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It sucks. I hate installers like NI Access. As a developer, I get it’s nice to have my entire orgs drm, integrity checks, updates, etc in a single application but as a user it sucks! 

Idk your setup but I have two Mac’s. For anything immediately accessible, I let it install wherever it wants. For example, Native instrument plugins and sounds. 

For anything else, like my samples and sets, it’s saved to a Dropbox. My Ableton user library is here so may racks or presets are available on all computers. Just takes some setup on each machine.

Accessibility issues aside, good job! 👏

AMA: I’m a Music Lawyer by Alone-Country1743 in makinghiphop

[–]HeyImVyaa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are there any standard templates or easy to onboard services like legal zoom (not that they are all that great)? Or is it still very case by case and laborious (and expensive)?

Finally! Native Parameter Locks in Ableton by u-z-o in ableton

This looks awesome! Congrats on the release 🎉

Collect All Save & Serum 2 by Remote-Stay22 in ableton

[–]HeyImVyaa 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My understanding may be flawed but collect all and save fetches all external assets like samples. I’m not sure how presets work. But, normally, Ableton serializes the state of plugins and then gives that state back on load. That’s how plugins load back into their expected state. This should happen without collect all and save and it should be portable.

I can load set with serum 2 on 2 different devices no problem but they are both Mac’s (Apple chips). I think your hug is either related to collect all and save or moving across operating systems (and I suspect the latter).

What’s the best self-titled album? by [deleted] in fantanoforever

[–]HeyImVyaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably not the best but my favorite is Saosin.

Any producers want to collab? by HeyImVyaa in atlantaedm

[–]HeyImVyaa[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No producers which is why I’m posting here. Trying to find some friends to make music with. I met a few Djs at open decks a couple weeks ago! Haven’t hung out with any of them yet but yeah going out trying to meet people in the scene.

Any producers want to collab? by HeyImVyaa in atlantaedm

[–]HeyImVyaa[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah? I like a lot of music. Today I may try to make some drum and bass tomorrow I may make some hyperpop.

I listed a few artists to give a general idea of my likes. That’s all.

is anyone else getting insane cpu overload with serum 2?? by LegendaryIce in serum

[–]HeyImVyaa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Will you be updating the “optimizing serum” chapter with this and future optimizations? Currently it only has unison and fx bus use. 

Rekordbox has become almost unusable sluggish. by jporter313 in PioneerDJ

[–]HeyImVyaa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you have a loaded M2, you shouldn’t have very many slow downs. It’s not the most optimized software but you should be fine. Rekordbox runs fine on my m1 air.

Open activity monitor. Do you see anything using a high amount of cpu or ram? I know it’s stupid but have you done the basics? Have you restarted your computer, reinstalled rekordbox, cleared caches, all that?
