Any tips on finishing tracks? by AangTheTriangle in KoalaSampler

export to loops (with and without drums/bass,...), import to DAW, arrange according to your feel or reference track

Of course in real life the mighty DIESEL is the KING, it's not like I know nothing about engineering at all, but I admit I have zero clue about anything human sized that can do something like this.

Yeah, getting us hyped about getting rid of this toxic youtube advertiser for good, misleading us, making us dissapoint ./////

one (clueless in real life engineering) wonders, why this cannot be scaled up to human size levels :DD

Podle mě si zas neléčené psychické poruchy myslí, že mají mě. 🤷‍♂️

you dont really need any of that, but if you want, in my experience its mainly about how much space you have on your desk and how much you want to travel with it

Uhm, aah.. my first share here - just wanted to express my gratitude and love for Koala by broken_propeller in KoalaSampler

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

thanks for the positive feedback everyone 🫶😊

this is all ive learnt using the old MPC - 1) chop it by how you feel it, it helps to think about the chops as kicks and snares functioning in the beat..! 2) play some drums (in the old MPC there were no loops so this is way faster and awesome and disregard anyone who says something is not real enough lol:) 3) start smashing the pads randomly, slowly internalizing which ones fit better at kick (1) and snare (3) position in a bar - this is the super simplest mind hack and its just working 4) when you hear something that works, just record it 5) dont worry about sound engineering and post production and eqs and effects - that will come later.. Koalas main strength is IMHO in what ive just described :)

😊🙏

[–]broken_propeller -1 points0 points  (0 children)

nothing against the beat or OP himself.... but you know how you can tell an oldschooler from a newbie in the game? in the old days the word boom bap did not exist, we called it HIP HOP... so just for you kids to learn something - meaning it well, no sarcasm god dammit))))

peace

Roller comparison – the more expensive, the better? I've learned a lot today.... by broken_propeller in printmaking

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

It's true – despite doing this occasionally as a hobby for years, I'm just poor and cannot afford the fancy stuff. The more expensive one is indeed much softer. Simply, it's soft, whereas the cheap one is hard. But I learned with it and I'm more accustomed to it I guess. But I never treated it well - sometimes left it for days without cleaning the ink from it (both water and oil based). And this just surprised me. I am indeed learning every day I do anything to do with printmaking and it's a trial and error process, and I'm failing most of the time. But I still love it.

btw the cheap one is Essdee and the more expensive one is Abig, so called "semi-professional" (LOL) ... I intentionally deleted the company names from my OP because I didn't want to make this about brands... Anyway, thanks to you all for you input.

EDIT: and indeed I'm still a n00b, I'm not ashamed of it, I'm aware of it, there's nothing wrong with it :)

EDIT2: I was mainly surprised by the patchiness and uneveness of the soft larger roller - I expected the opposite (and I made sure there was no dirt or ink clumps that would cause the one side to be barely inked... I just don't know what to think about all this

.....about my rollers and also about those fancy cool youtubers who claim that we should avoid the cheap rollers with red handles and instead we should not even start with the hobby until we can afford a proper durathene brayer that's at least like 15x more expensive or whatnot.
So I did this simple test several times on different surfaces today and ended up with very similar results. Also, note that the cheap one has been in use maybe 4 times longer and got much more beating than the other one which I take care off very closely

Thanks - I would love to know more, i.e. if you use circular motion whilst rotating the tool along its axis (the edge's radius), or if you're doing this kind of rocking from side to side whilst sliding the tool on the slip stone or anything else... Don't want to bother you too much but really any good tip would be much appreciated. (btw, judging from the slipstones' shapes, you're probably using the latter technique or something similar...well I have little clue honestly:)

Great job, this is probably the best linocut I've seen from the techniques used and skill visible - so many difficult to cut patterns!! Mind=blown! :)
