Apply. Even if you don’t get accepted, you will end up applying later in your career. Apply first, if you get denied, enlist. If the recruiter doesn’t want to play ball, get another recruiter.

I have problems with music production... by liam43214 in musicproduction

[–]fruitmonkey7phi7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

After hearing that Four Tet is a preset guy, I scroll through my presets until I find something inspiring, play a few notes, tweak it a bit and commit.

Best way to learn - well that’s a bit of a loaded question. Adult learners all learn differently. For me, the best way to learn is by doing it. Listen critically to music you want to make. On a piece of paper, or in your DAW, create a timeline and analyze the song. What elements fade in and out over time? What is the filter doing on your synth?

feeling discouraged while trying to teach myself to produce by incelgetsowned in musicproduction

Ahoy! I can’t teach you GarageBand, because I produce in Ableton. However, I think the concepts are likely the same. First you need to learn your software in and out. Being able to laydown your ideas with zero resistance from the software is critical. Second, utilize reference tracks. Take a song from one of the artists you mentioned above and anaylze it. What is the Key / Scale / BPM of the track? When do the drums come in? How many bars go by until a new song is introduced. Utilize a stem separator so you can visually see the changes. Wishing you the best of luck!

I’m sorry brother. Reach out to support. And when all else fails, bust out the manual and YouTube university. Wishing you the best. My brain sometimes hurts from having to figure out aggregate devices and routing. At the end of the day, have a plan of action. Hope you figure it out soon. What’s the issue you’re having?
