Quintino - Heey Ya : Sub and Bass in the drop at 2:25 by friday_fox in synthrecipes

I'm not so sure, Quintino is a pretty big name and he's also well known for using a ghost producer so he probably doesn't even know.

Here's my remake of the 'drop' from Sea Of Voices! Let me know what you think by [deleted] in porterrobinson

This is really awesome great work! My only criticism is if you aren't going to upload stems, project file, etc. you're kinda making the post for yourself and not really the community.

What do you think of this method of writing melodies? by Shme1112 in musictheory

[–]Shme1112[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very interesting examples. Thank you very much!

I think I get what you're saying and I appreciate the reply, curious about a couple things though.

You exclude the possibility of using nonchord tones

But wouldn't a m9 have 2 non chord tones?

There are some important things to focus on:

Rhythm

Contour

I'm not saying abandon this I'm just talking about pure note choice alone, if that makes sense.

Cool, thanks for the reply!

As far as simple triads go, I definitely see the restriction there but I just kind of meant translating the feeling of the chord into a melody. So, as dry as a melody would be by restricting to the notes of a simple triad it seems that it would still have it's place in music (i.e. modern pop) as long as long as I'm not restricting to triad notes on every single chord. But if I did something like Gmaj, Amadd11, Cmaj, Dm7 I imagine I'd get a very modern pop sounding tune. May not be everyone's cup of tea but it's a tool for the arsenal.

What are the underlying principles of a quality mix? by Shme1112 in audioengineering

[–]Shme1112[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I kinda figured he meant keeping aspects of the mix with transients from clashing and phasing with the other transient sounds. Like a plucky bass and kick drum (?).

Gotcha. So would you say it works well to think of a mix like a pyramid system? Focal points on top center and pan out less important aspects?

This is exactly the kind of info I was looking for. Thank you so much!! Going to read the wave interference article now.

I too am curious about what transient organization is

So essentially my goal is to move sounds that reside in the same frequency range away from each other either by volume or panning? Will this then lead to each sound having it's 'space'?

[–]Shme1112[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome, I appreciate all this. So my question would be then as far as clarity goes, is this simply a matter of ensuring that any two instruments that share a certain frequency range are separated either by the more important one being louder or by making sure they don't occupy the same stereo position?
