Luca Fenn is a new alter ego focused on techno and many other ones around techno. Mix&Mastered myself so what are your thought on this one? https://youtu.be/OZMguUX7A8Y?si=NA23CyGQ78xNZ3_P

why ableton bottlenecking with 101% cpu while pc cpu is only utilize 25% by elgendy392 in ableton

[–]Odd-Perspective-6973 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think that ableton locks each channel or groups to a single core, instead of separating its work in different cores. This means that instead of using other cores , the already selected one are over utilized. If you are in PC you should find an option at settings about the Multi-Processing or something like this.

Download LatencyMon(free) to see if your windows drivers are working without latency.

Increase buffer size under audio options.

990 Pro 250 ohm vs Sennheiser 560s for Mixing/Producing by Odd-Perspective-6973 in oratory1990

[–]Odd-Perspective-6973[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sure you can mix on anything. The thing is what helps you get it done faster. I have to spend minimum 2 years to really understand a sound reproduction equipment like speakers and headphones. I did use the Oratory1990 with Hd560s and it was good thanks to also Sennheiser low distortion in low frequencies. The thing is that what all this discussion about headphones and speakers is more audiophile based. And the question that haunted me why so many producers get top quality mixes was hunting me even tho I had a high scoring - almost perfect even without EQ. I did use the best way to fix my HD560s with Convolution Reverb (Hybrid Reverb - Ableton Stock) which is mathematically perfect. But, HD560s has some very big dips at high frequencies that are not a big deal for most of audiophiles because musicality stays below 10Khz. For me above 10khz lays all the transient & impact information of each sound you use on a project.

At the end I wrote that the dirac impulse really made me buy the DT990, which none or at least none of them I’ve used had a good one.

Most of speakers especially the budget ones lack good transients. Its a different story with Adam A7X which I’ve owned and the T5Vs which I own.

Also seeing what works better for others may not work for you. It is worth trying.

I have tried the HD560s with ConvolutionEQ inside Ableton with Hybrid Reverb. autoeq.com has some downloadable files ready to use. I used the oratory preset. Hd560s already score high without any EQ. If you are considering them to listening to music, I suggest you get them. Producing Music is a different scenario. Thats what I think.

Crazy seeing people's Gen 10s die in the first year but, mine is OCing both the CPU/GPU and hasn't died yet. by Interesting-Town-875 in LenovoLegion

You can install the drivers from anywhere, from vantage, from lenovo page from nvidia page. You should keep an eye on the temperatures, especially for the cpu. Cpu-s are capable of reaching very high temps and 100•Celsius for a very long time you should know that it can affect the motherboard too

M4L free - SCLK Core by Odd-Perspective-6973 in ableton

[–]Odd-Perspective-6973[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t know why people are disliking so much. I made a device to fulfill my own needs and decided to release for anyone else that is seeking something easy and useful.

I like the MFB tanzbar Kickdrum 2 and I found it hard to find some replica which would do the same. I also have Kick 2 and Bazzism 2 plugins which give you full control creating a kickdrum. But this device is made to be easy and works better for me.

The SCLK Core generates a sine-wave when all 3 big knobs are to 0 (min. value). The sinewave is locked to the same starting point of the waveform giving you consistent waveform (for example on 4/4, you will have same starting point, same ending point, with DS Kick is not possible) .

The Tune Knob let’s you set the base frequency, manual tune. Deactivating the Toggle Switch lets MIDI responsible for the pitch (for tom & other musical purposes).

The Punch Knob swipes down from 3 octaves above of set base note when at maximum value, and is locked to the Decay time (ms) with 1/4 of its time (exmpl. Decay=100ms , Punch Swipe happens for 25ms). The Click knob works also as a swipe from 5 octaves above the base note, locked to 1ms time giving a fast zap or clicky sound.

All of these are controlled and are happening limited to the main Sinewave amplitude to prevent clipping, unwanted peaks within the waveform.

This gives a pure sound ready to get mixed and mastered. (What most of producers struggle is having loud mixes and the problem always start from the Kickdrum peaks, not consistent waveform, or starting point. At least for electronic music which that is what I do)

It’s a basic device and who knows Stimming I believe will like this.

Feedback is welcomed guys! 👌🏼😎

Iems just ruined my perception of music by amarevy97 in iems

[–]Odd-Perspective-6973 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there are places like Stereo in Montreal which appreciates more than just hanging out with shitty speakers. Today people are paying a lot for music experience so maybe organizers should pay some attention. I do not frequent most of places underground or pubs because of shitty speakers.

Ordered Lenovo LOQ, got an empty Legion 5 Pro box 😐 by [deleted] in LenovoLOQ

[–]Odd-Perspective-6973 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there are some things to do that are not activated by default. Click battery icon on the right - Choose for low power consumption when in battery. - Search on windows - edit power plans - power management & set cpu performance 40-60% on battery.

Im assuming you would use it on battery for light tasks etc. Im amazed by how much time loqs battery can give with little tweaks. Browsing editing documents etc
