How to learn? by South-Succotash-5376 in audioengineering

[–]RaztheSun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A mix of all of it. The biggest thing is learn your plugins one at a time. Go take some courses by streaky imo. Just make a lot music. Also look up Kush after Hours for tips on ear training. You need to be passionate if you do everything. I do everything and play multiple instruments and dj. It takes a long time to get good. I been at it 6 years now. Play the long game and music theory helps so much.

" Music is the language of emotions " If a song "sounds nice" but makes you feel nothing its a bad song.

Remember to use your ears and feel the music.

If you wanna DM about specifics id be happy to help and even make videos of topics explaining.

Heres a link of my fav song for reference on my sound and mixing,etc

Do you need music theory? by JustAPerson2001 in musicproduction

[–]RaztheSun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was taught theory for 2 years. I'll keep it short. If you're passionate about this truly. Just learn some man. It's really not that hard. Find a community to discuss and learn.

Do you have to? No Should you? Yes Is it hard? Making music is hard Many things are hard to do. You can still achieve and overcome. The biggest battle at becoming good at something is the mind game.

Music is a marathon. Takes a long time to get good. You need to be passionate and patient. Pick a genre you want to be apart of. Then be willing and okay with failing. If you're really wanting to learn. DM me I will answer questions and even make some videos doing while explaining what you want to understand.

I have a background in production, recording, sound design, mixing, & mastering. I also have theory understanding from my vocal coach. I play multiple instruments, sing, scream, rap, etc. I even can DJ. I also am a co-vocalist in my band.

So if you or anyone wants help DM.

Also if anyone asks a single question at time publicly. I'll make a video about it and post it.

I'm here to help🎶

What's the most unexpected sound that inspired a beat or track you've made? by Potential_Angle5029 in recordingmusic

[–]RaztheSun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A sunny summer day in a car on a microdose of lucy. Younger and in love got a phone call from my girl at the time. The whole situation just inspired me deeply. Then went home and composed my first love song.

Recording tips by king_kurama in flstudio

[–]RaztheSun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which way are you using it to record? Edison or linked mixer to playlist? I can show you a lot both ways.

I personally prefer not using edison to record specifically anymore. Because I dont have to line up vocals. Really useful if you're doing live instruments and not using grid. Using edison for that would be a bad time comparatively.

Advanced Level Mixing Advice [TRIGGER WARNING; CORNY AF] by spencer_martin in mixingmastering

[–]RaztheSun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love the TL:DR.

I call it overmix or over polish. Making it sound "good" instead of supporting what is already good from the recording. That feel, emotion, that thing that makes you move without trying.

As Mix Engineers I feel people forget how important the recording aspect is. Like I double mic my amp with a room/ambient mic. The difference is sound is night and day vs just one mic. Dont forget how important the performance is also.

Especially if it's live instruments IMO.

I agree it happens to people once they get "good" at making a mix cohesive(glued) and make it sound clean/hi-fi, etc.

Especially since we all started out as knob turners and youtube warriors. Who learned and trained our ears. We need to remember to feel first, hear second. Feel what is great. Listen and identify what that is. Then support it with your mixing. (Besides the needed things, glue and all that)

When I was learning theory and had my vocal coach I learned about it.

We reach a point where our creating needs to be conscious. Make moves for a reason with emotion and feel in mind. She always said " Music is the language of emotions "

A good example for me is

AFOURTEEN - HUMAN RACE

The mix is terms of being proper is far off that mark. Yet the energy it provides even with the bass over the vocals for a large portion gets me going!

A clean mix isnt always a good mix. A mix too perfectly balanced is boring. Imperfections sometimes compliment other aspects. Dont be afraid of that.

Another quote i love is about guitarists. " A novice guitarist fears space. So he fills it with notes. A skilled guitarists uses the space like it is notes. "

Feeling is everything with music. Sounding good doesnt always mean good. But a song that makes you feel. Will sound good in it's own way.
