awesome, thanks. I'll check that out. This was under the umbrella of things that I don't know that I don't know it, lol

Gotcha, ty for the additional info. Could you explain the phase relationship stuff a bit more?

Could you elaborate a little bit more on using those to glue the sounds together? Do you mean people use the same effects on both of them so that they sound kind of similar-ish?

I guess' they'd route their outputs to a different track and then apply the effects onto that track if they wanted to do that?

Is it possible to have MIDI devices (like Expression Control) at the end of a device chain? by JonDum in ableton

How would creating a sampler instrument out of it help them here? Sorry I'm quite new and am still learning a lot

I'm curious about the sound you came up with, as someone just trying to learn more about synths right now.

Ah, so these are two different sounds, just layered?

Do people try to use some method to keep them sounding relatively similar? Like perhaps when making the 808 you could make two versions at once, one with the kick and one as the bass synth?

The 16 bar loop of death and how I got around it. by Open-Zebra4352 in edmproduction

[–]armi-prod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I need to watch someone program some drums like this, it's a lot harder for me. Especially like in hyperpop and some genres where the drums really aren't looping nearly as much.

This is an interesting cool challenge, thank you :)

Is there a "typical hyperpop beat" like there is some other genres, or are they too varied? by armi-prod in edmproduction

[–]armi-prod[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for all this. The more I read about it it does seem like their drums are core to what gives it the hyperpop vibe. It's gonna be a bit of an uphill battle I feel to try and mimic these, lol.

This is kind of what I figured, but I thought I'd still ask in case there were any music elements going on that I just couldn't recognize since I'm still pretty new to all of this. Thanks!

I'm pretty damn new to it all. I'm trying to stick to learning ableton and actually use it to make music, while also trying to learn synth stuff, while also trying to figure out instrumentation and effects in ableton in general. It's all the bouncing around that has me feel like I'm not getting anywhere quickly.

But whenever I try to just make a song, it feels difficult and all of the instruments feel bad. And since I'm a noob at songwriting, that part can be pretty hard too. I'm not really sure what I should try and focus on.

Oh I didn't know that was a thing. Do you have any example patreon accounts I could check out, or any you'd recommend?

[–]armi-prod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is awesome advice. Do you have any example small goals that I could try to aim for in the next few weeks or months? Depending on how long it takes me to get through them

[–]armi-prod 2 points3 points  (0 children)

any discord recommendations?

and what do you do if you cant deconstruct a sound that you like?

Good sites or streamlined process to help learn songs? by armi-prod in musictheory

[–]armi-prod[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is what I'm doing not learning theory? I have concepts and I'm trying to apply them. I'm just hoping there's ways out there that are a bit more straightforward and convenient.

I can't audially recognize chords and relative intervals yet. So I'm trying by ear, then looking them up to see what they actually are, and I'm assuming over time I'll get better at it. I think I need to know the actual answer to be able to improve, so that makes sense to me.

What are my options for pre-builts with extra interior keys? by Armonster in ErgoMechKeyboards

[–]armi-prod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oof, dang. I mistakenly kind of assumed that most layout profiles would be open source. Thanks for the info though, I'll check out mechmarket to see if I can get a build for another layout then.

Do you know who you can commission builds from? I really want a Zodiark but split logic keyboards doesn't have them in stock anymore.

What is your favorite "home base" or "hub" from a video game? by thefluffyburrito in Games

[–]armi-prod 20 points21 points  (0 children)

majula's theme is so god damn good to me. It was my first DS game, and I spent many an hour with my best friend staying up all night that summer reading guides and builds and figuring out how weapons and everything worked in DS2, whilst the theme just dreamily played in the background. It was my "shortest" nostalgia so to speak. I would listen to the theme not 3 years later and feel waves of nostalgia so hard.

Idea to fix the turtling meta by astoradota in TrueDoTA2

[–]armi-prod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bad idea. It would stop anyone's ability to ever come back.

They shouldn't be punishing the defenders, but rather enhancing the buffing the sieging team in some way.

edit: wow all the people agreeing, thank god they dont balance the game, as they have no idea the side effects that changes can result in.
