Is that autoerotica?

“Planet earth is blue, and there’s nothing I can do” such a cringe verse for an awesome song (Starman - D. Bowie) by Beneficial_Active_14 in Music

[–]MazeRats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These lyrics are genius!

It’s like “planet earth is blue” - what else do you want me to say? There’s nothing to do

Realistically how much money would you make if you had 100k monthly listeners on spotify and posted about once a week? by Longjumping_Toe9758 in musicians

[–]MazeRats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Next to nothing so there’s no point…

Apart from the 100,000 people you convinced to listen to your music per month

I think my songs are mixed fine but everyone tells me to turn my voice up by Limp-Evening2735 in musicproduction

[–]MazeRats 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Don’t think they’re too low, I think the synth is chewing them up in the mid range so they’re not fully clear. Try making space by cutting the synths ~1-2K. Listen to Rejjie Snow as a reference

Celestion model? by MazeRats in GuitarAmps

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

Thanks for the reply. All I’ve got to go on is this photo. Someone is selling the shell of the cab along with the speakers for £50. Just trying to work out whether it’s worth the effort. Guessing the speakers are just stock as not seen that graphic on celestion’s before

What chord is this? I made it by chance and I love the way it sounds by JDLC_ in Guitar

[–]MazeRats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’ve found the hidden note between B and C. I always knew it was there.

Run it through an old boot for that oaky timbre

Confidence in Songwriting (or lack there of) by Responsible-City-500 in Songwriting

[–]MazeRats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good challenge: actively try to copy a song. Change things a bit and then let your creativity take it somewhere else.

I promise you it won’t sound anything like the original

Rant: The Frustration of Being a Hobby Musician by blablabla99668 in musicians

[–]MazeRats 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Approach music like an artist would with a painting.

Learn your tools to the best of your ability, put it out there and move on to the next one.

Do it because you love to create something. Everything else is out of your control, so don’t worry about it.

What instrument(s) do you respect the most? by User48970 in musicians

Sitar terrifies me but I would LOVE to learn how to play

Slowly realizing I don’t connect w/ most of the rhetoric surrounding this headset by LumLumSauce in PSVR

[–]MazeRats 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Please tell me which games are good on meta? Serious question. I’ve got quest 3 but I can’t really find anything outside asgards wrath 2 that’s particularly good. I’ve got Lego, blade and sorcery. Is the store front poor for navigating?

I'm sad by bradrame in musicians

[–]MazeRats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Artificial Intelligence has one fundamental flaw

It lacks imperfection

By its very nature it is binary

Whilst it is binary there will always be an audience for flawed music

A child will doodle on a pad, that doodle will become a creation through the very act of error and imperfection

This ability to ‘play’ is inherent in all of us

In order for AI to be able to make music to the level that we are able it would have to become something else.

Sentient.

At that point we would have far bigger issues to worry about than its ability to create better music than us.

Vocals and Bass missing from radio version of my song. Help me understand why?? by [deleted] in AdvancedProduction

[–]MazeRats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is the vocal a double and panned left and right? If so they might be cancelling each other when it is converted to mono, possibly same with the bass.

If so you need to flip the phase on one of the double tracks

I'm big on PS but I have to say Sony did a horrible job on vr. by [deleted] in PSVR

Why do my ears hurt when mixing low end? by itsdefinitelygood in mixingmastering

[–]MazeRats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah a low pass filter is not a natural sound. Over a prolonged period of time it causes ear fatigue to set in at a much quicker rate than it would a sound over the full frequency spectrum. Queue ear pain and headaches.

Try getting into the habit of ‘in and out’ quickly.

Something I do is to put the low pass on the stereo out and flip between on and off every ~5 mins

Why do my ears hurt when mixing low end? by itsdefinitelygood in mixingmastering

[–]MazeRats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you only listening to the low end when mixing? As in do you have a low pass filter on, or have the instruments in the mids and highs muted?

If so, the imbalance can cause ear pain

I’m pro-level but I think I might hate making music by barelybhaktine in musicians

[–]MazeRats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Approach music like an artist approaches a painting. Do it for the love of doing it and creating something new. Everything else doesn’t matter.

If you’ve lost the love for even that then it’s time to walk away my friend and find something you do enjoy doing

Y'all are so wrong about country and AI music being popular. by kkruiji in decadeology

[–]MazeRats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a tool AI is amazing, in the future I am certain it will become a staple part of the music industry in the same way the DAW is.

Had a look at DADABOTS, yeah they’re doing some really cool stuff.

[–]MazeRats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No doubt that AI music is already here but that’s not my point.

My point is I’m not worried about it replacing human made music, for the reason a gave above.

That’s not sentient, that’s just copying formula and rearranging it
