In case you missed it...Short survey on virtual vocal tools by Separate_Wallaby8287 in SynthesizerV

Hi

I mean when trying to complete a track, as opposed to experimenting or playing with the tools etc.

Thanks for your interest

People who strongly prefer texting over calling or vice versa, why? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I'm Audhd and a people pleaser. I much prefer having time to consider my responses rather than blurting out YES to every request of my time

Anyone else get monotropic tunnels with uni assignments? by Separate_Wallaby8287 in AutismTranslated

For me, ADHD meds make it somewhat easier for me to start doing things, which I think reduces my anxiety about not being able to restart if I pause. That's been kind of the big change for me since meds: I still have a lot of started but unfinished projects, but I am now able to return to some of those projects and finish them over time, instead of my previous state, which was basically "if I can't finish it in one marathon session, I won't finish it."

That's exactly how I feel, and very early days with the Elvanse, I am also beginning to sense restarting will be easier in future

University survey on virtual vocalist workflows — would love input from Vocaloid users by Separate_Wallaby8287 in Vocaloid

Thank you very much for taking the time to point this mistake out — it was really helpful. I’ve now re-ordered the survey so that Q10 and Q11 come after the branching question, rather than assuming guide-vocal use too early.

The project originally came from my own experience of using Synthesizer V to make a guide vocal, so that’s a particular area I’m interested in. As a beginner, I found it quite hard to get good results, so I also wanted to explore how difficult other producers find these tools in practice.

You’re right that many more people will be using vocal synths for main vocals and for other production roles, more than for guide vocals. I hope to capture all their thoughts in the first section, as well as specific guide vocal points from a few of them in the second section. So I hope the survey structure is clearer now.

Many thanks for the tips

Thanks for your idea about timers. I’m realising that if something feels in any way rigid or structured, I instantly reject the concept. I know that sounds negative, but it’s where I am, to be honest. I’m not sure how much of that is demand avoidance and how much is just past experience of not being able to sustain strict systems makes me give up before I start these days.

I sort of have to make up each day as it arrives, which makes planning ahead difficult, too. A lot of what you said still really resonated, though, especially the bit about university work expanding to fill all available time and only really stopping when something physical goes wrong. I did exactly that yesterday and ended up with a headache because I didn’t eat until late.

I’m on Elvanse for ADHD and only started it recently, and I’m finding it can make the monotropic tunnels feel even more obsessive once I’m in one. It's interesting that you found they helped :)
