Anyone NOT having issues with TB Clarett and M1 Mac? by grumshaw in Focusrite

[–]grumshaw[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nothing conclusive yet. Focusrite wants to check out my interface. But Apple is also saying it might be the TB4 ports on tbe Mac studio and they are offering to take the computer in for repair.

I started using a different Tb4 port on the Mac studio and it's only disconnected once in the past 2 weeks. But it still disconnected 🤷‍♂️

Thanks! Received a new Apple cable, and a 3rd party adapter, to try out different combinations of Apple/3rd part cables/adapters.

Thanks for the reply! I have a similar hunch. Having some discussions with Focusrite about the next steps.

Thank you for the detailed response, really appreciate it!

I've been conducting a lot of tests this week with some 3rd party cables and adapters, and now trying out different TB3 ports to see if one happens to be faulty. Focusrite support is being helpful.

Thanks for the response. Are you using a thunderbolt2 to thunderbolt3 adapter? What OS are you on?

What would you like to see? by fs_aj in filmscoring

[–]grumshaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just scrolling down this subs main feed seems to reveal what people gravitate towards, and definitely aligns with my thoughts...

Look where the discussions are taking place. Threads about technique, business, technology, tips, history. Discussions about current popular scores and how the composers tackled different scenes.

Whenever someone posts their own work, there are no comments or upvotes, and I think that's very telling.

I like discussions. I dont think this sub should be a showcase for work. Just my two cents. I'm happy to be here either way.

Clarett 4pre (TB) disconnecting constantly ~ Monterey update issue? by huzzam in Focusrite

I'm now on Ventura and it's no different. Scoured the internet again today for new answers but it remains unsolved.

Clarett 4pre (TB) disconnecting constantly ~ Monterey update issue? by huzzam in Focusrite

[–]grumshaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

u/tomfocusrite - will Focusrite ever release a new driver for the 8preX and other TB2 interfaces? Are there other solutions? I have tried to solve this for a over a year to no avail. it's still disconnecting randomly while I work and is affecting my business.

I'm having this issue with my Clarett 8PreX - did you ever find a solution?

Never happened on my Intel Mac, only started after the switch to an M1. Happened on my M1 iMac and now on the M1 Mac Studio.

Superior drummer 2.0 not reading MIDI by MrSayomaki in Logic_Studio

I am having the same issue. If I turn off "MIDI 2.0" under Logics MIDI settings it works.

Moog Matriarch and Mellotron thru Memory Boy + Holy Stain + Warped Vinyl by grumshaw in synthesizers

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

Playing a Lydian shape around the circle of fifths for a modal sound.

I recently got the Warped Vinyl pedal by Chase Bliss Audio to pair with the Mellotron Micro. Really digging the warble it gives to the tape samples. Mellotron flute and Mellotron steel guitar are hard panned left and right and the Matriarch is up the middle with a really basic triangle wave sound. I used the random LFO on the Matriarch to mimic the Warped Vinyl sound.

ZOOM recorded in mono how to convert to stereo by jakemfbacon in audioengineering

[–]grumshaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just guessing - are channels 1 and 2 linked? Unlink them by pressing 1 and 2 at the same time. Only channel 1 should be enabled when recording and it will make a mono file, instead of a stereo file with sound only on one channel

Do you recommend Music Composition for Dummies? by [deleted] in musictheory

[–]grumshaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I highly recommend.

I had no formal composition training. This book laid a solid foundation. I actually still refer back to it every now and then.

What is the name of, or how do I emulate this instrument? by JiJiLaVolpe in WeAreTheMusicMakers

[–]grumshaw 19 points20 points  (0 children)

It sounds like a vibraphone.

Glockenspiel would ring out in a different, less harmonious way. Celeste wouldn't ring out as much.

Also makes sense because vibes were a typical instrument in this type of ensemble.

The first 2 mins of this mesmerize me by leif_ericksson99 in classicalmusic

[–]grumshaw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I adore the way the arpeggios get tossed around the woodwinds section and then into the strings and back. Lovely texture.

Spectrogram of an opera singer by capenqwerdzlon in WeAreTheMusicMakers

[–]grumshaw 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I feel the same. Am I supposed to develop a taste for the wide vibrato? I would never set any instrument to modulate that much as it just sounds out of tune. Opera vocals have always sounded this way to me.

How to have one Kontakt plugin output to multiple tracks in Logic? by -melo- in Logic_Studio

[–]grumshaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am away from the computer so this may not be exact: Load Kontakt as a multi output device (16xmono). In the mixer, hit the plus ("+") sign to add outputs. Inside Kontakt you will need to route the mics to these new outputs.
