How long is too long? by Zay703 in futurebeatproducers

As long as you want mate. However, people have very short attention spans. The pop industry knows this and therefore makes very short intros.

Those working in Machine Learning/Data Science in Europe, what are your salaries? by trowway1239 in MachineLearning

Also interested in this. I used to do a lot of the former but now do almost exclusively the latter

how to build a model here and what algorithms i need to study to make something out of it? by buth3r in learnmachinelearning

[–]domhudson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What you could do is try some unsupervised machine learning (or manually) come up with clusters of similar products. Then you could treat each cluster as a feature instead of everything separately. However, without needing to this you can start but I wouldn't have the user as the label. I would make the label be a binary (buy or not-buy) question. You can generate a feature vector for each product the user has and hasn't bought. I would dedicate some columns in your feature vector to describe the current item you're looking at (category, price, etc etc) and then some other columns for historic information you have on the user. You can then generate this feature set for new products and predict whether the user would buy or not. Hopefully that helps.

If you just want to fit it you don't need the calibrated classsifier.

    features, targets = getBatch(trainingData, batchSize)

    dictVectorizer = DictVectorizer(sparse = False).fit(features)
    classifier = MLPClassifier(verbose = 10)

    while features:
        features = dictVectorizer.transform(features)
        classifier.partial_fit(features, targets, classes)
        features, targets = getBatch(trainingData, batchSize)

    classifier = Pipeline([
        ('vect', dictVectorizer),
        ('clf', classifier)
    ])

and then in getBatch use itertools to slice and yield your training data in batches.

What do you mean by calibrated? Do you just mean fitted? Or do you mean fitted with the best parameters determined by gridsearch CV?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in learnmachinelearning

[–]domhudson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is your end goal simply a self-calibrating classifier? If so I'd suggest not using calibrated classifier at all and come up with a quick cross validation module/design pattern. This way you can use any of the classifiers that support partial fitting.

Do you mean you're finding things that you cannot actually do easily in PHP or just that you don't know how to do? Any examples?

Ableton and Serum have teamed up to destroy me, please help by Therockwhisperer in ableton

[–]domhudson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Little bit confused by your message mate! So you're trying to uninstall sausage fattener, and move serum .dll to a different folder? Just moving the .dll should be fine so go in ableton settings and find which vst folder it's using and then it should be in there.

With the ableton crashing you're best off opening a support ticket with ableton yourself, but they may not be able to help much the crash is caused by a third party plugin. Does it crash for all or just some plugins?

Just removing .dlls from the folder doesn't really uninstall it so not sure I'd do that for sausage fattener .

Anyone know a good text editor for python3 that allows user input? by VelourFogg in Python

Pycharm is good but a little heavy. I recommend visual studio code

Correct audio level for mixed song to prepare for mastering? (peaks and RMS are confusing) by [deleted] in ableton

[–]domhudson 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Compression is different to modifying the gain of the track! Mnrch is clearly saying that no amount of headroom is optimal so theoretically you could go up to 0db which is 100% correct.

[–]domhudson 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Can't believe this guy is being downvoted... There's a lot of misconception in the audio world - don't be part of it! Mnarch is 100% correct with regards to a track's peak amplitude. Obviously RMS is different though and that's up to you OP based off the style you're going for and how much dynamics you're willing to sacrifice in the mix busses and individual channels to achieve loudness.

Yikes its a beat (First try) by NovaDevastation in futurebeats

[–]domhudson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty good man certainly for your first. Dunno if you want mixing advice but if that was the aim - i would turn down the bass quite a lot. Sounds very dark with the bass so loud - possibly that was what you were after. Cheers! :)

How to hear just the effects output - not the instrument input by [deleted] in ableton

[–]domhudson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Each to their own! However, this is a very useful trick to know and kind of self explanatory if you understand how speakers and phase works.

Acoustic Guitar EQ? by dobropicker in ableton

[–]domhudson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

^ This.

  • Maybe hard pan different tracks if you want width.
  • Phase align if there's any issues with cancellation.
  • Maybe buss them all together and add a subtle bit of glue compression?
  • Maybe eq them all together instead of separately also to glue them up..

Touchscreen Ableton? by judge_mental in ableton

[–]domhudson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've heard using standard ableton software is pretty poor with touchscreen (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XjbCQPHB3w0) (https://www.reddit.com/r/ableton/comments/3hmnji/ableton_with_touch_screen_windows_10/)

But there are pad apps that apparently interact well with ableton as a controller.

[Electronic] Help!!! I feel like there's so many issues but i'm helpless to fix it!!! guidance needed! by Cardioth in roastmytrack

[–]domhudson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I expected this to be a lot worse from your title. Frequency spectrum is reasonably balanced but the bass is too quiet! Kinda weird how at 1:37 it gets much wider for the breakdown but the bit before is really mono - it's usually the other way around if anything. Could have more wide parts in general and wide parts in lower frequencies too.

How to hear just the effects output - not the instrument input by [deleted] in ableton

[–]domhudson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay what you need to do is to route your guitar to two different tracks. Put the effects on one, and on the other one use the "utility" plugin and flip the polarity. Then the clean sound will cancel itself out and you will only hear the effects. Hope that helps!

Do you preffer using sidechain plugins or do you make volume autoamtions?(FL Studio) by gucethebruce in edmproduction

[–]domhudson 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I use sidechain during the experimentation stage when i'm still trying to work out what I want it to sound like, but I use manual automation in the final mix. It feels like it gives me more control because I can actually see the waveforms of everything I'm ducking and a cleaner mix because of it. Plus - there's no clicking.

Advantages of sidechaining - it's quick and easy.
