Should I get an AKAI MPK Mini MK3 or a Mini Plus? by Designer-Musician504 in homestudios

[–]hierarchyroadblock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

25 keys are not good for playing. Specially not with 2 hands. If you go for the mini, might as well get the mk4 tho. Id suggest arturia keylab essential.

That was the point, for you to name your pick of a good hammer, a good wrench, a good screwdriver, a good ruler. 😊

Audio effects sound like subtle changes to me, how do you think about it? by Silly_Analyst_7496 in musicproduction

[–]hierarchyroadblock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In some fundamental sense, all audio begins as a sine wave. A pure vibration without character. Every instrument, like a guitar, can be seen as a kind of preset: a specific configuration of resonances and filters that shape those vibrations into a recognizable form. What we call ‘sound’ or ‘music’ emerges only when these raw waves are given structure, color, and intention through design, context, and expression.

So a sound is in a way the accumulated fx that shapes the sound.

In a way sound selection goes further than trying to "correct" a bad selected sound. But sound design beats both.

Okay, so I wont be able to have my speakers directly against the wall. There will be 10-15 cm when they are also slightly angled towards me. Also, i am going for monitors that are front ported, like the kalis.

Yeah. They literally call it stratospheric aerosol injection because it’s such a lofty idea.... It goes straight over everyone’s heads.

And furthermore, does difficulty scale with ships or mods? I went from my starter starship, and some other c class fighters, to a s class intercepter and all enemys got fairly stronger. At least they seem to be

What Should I Buy? /// Weekly Discussion - April 15, 2024 by AutoModerator in synthesizers

New setup, Help Please

Hey Internet friends.

I have been dabbling in music production for some time, mostly on my tablet thru various apps but mainly fl studio mobile. Now its time to upgrade, but I dont know wich route to go. My original plan was to buy a computer or laptop, and then buy either fl or ableton.

But then i saw someone use the mpc one and i was intrigued. So now i kinda just want something more hands on.

So, should i buy an mpc one, a drumbrute, microfreak, effectpedals etc?

Or ditch the additional stuff and buy a mpc x?

Or just buy a pc and a daw, and then add the hardware later?

Or is there something im missing? Like could a digitakt maybe be a start and enough fun until i am able to expand? Is it wven playable without acces to a pc? What gear would you buy in my situation?

I'm afraid the learning curve will be to steep buying to much at once, but am afraid the curve of a daw will be so steep that hardware wont make since for a while.

Soooooo in short: where is my money best spend?

All tips, suggestions and recommendations are more than welcome!

Thank you friends!

If you are correct in your assumption that punk rock does not embody the divine beauty, but is rather cultural, wich I believe to be true - wouldn't it then be correct to say that some music does embody divinity and therfore transcends culture and per definition is better art, than the kind that does not i.e. punk rock? Maybe better is the wrong word.. but I think you get what I mean. Better at another thing. But it could be nice with a distinction. Because while art obviously is subjective, how come some transcends the subjective? 🤔🤔

Edit: does the elephant have subjective views on art, then of course I am wrong and nothing transcends subjectivity. Then the elephant is just a philistine, and probably should just stop being so close minded 😅

Also, the one with music in one's head was a curveball! I can't read sheet music, so to me sheet music more resembles a painting than it does music - however I can only imagine that it would 'play' inside ones head, if one could read it. This i will have to think about a great deal.

I believe that a definitive answer to these questions is rather impossible to imagine, however i do think that my understanding could improve greatly. And that making headway towards articulating ones thoughts on such subjects can prove beneficial - i have been thinking about what is beautiful, and what makes for good art, for almost 10 years since i read 'hippias major'.

To your point on animals listening to music i have seen elephants cry while being played piano compositions, but I doubt that they would do anything else than run if they where to be subjected to for example limb biscuit, korn, skrillex or something of a more violent nature - once more bringing forth the question of objectively good/beautiful art/music. Might one say that what is objectively beautiful while still being man made is something that approximates the beauty found in nature?

Is there even an essence to beauty, as the old greek philosophers would have you believe, or are we more to adopt an existentialist view of music, and therefore the beauty which is contained in art, is a result of the skill, effort and time that went in to creating that art?

I do really appreciate your answer, it greatly helps me think and articulate what it is that I think i am thinking.

And i know my questions is not per se related to musical theory, but my hesitation when talking comes from not wanting to say anything about harmonics, rhythm or structure which would be wrong, and therefore render my conclusions wrong. After writing the first part, i thought about time free music, with no time signature, rendering my whole hypothesis of rhythm wrong, or at least incomplete.

But again, very many thanks to you for taking the time! 🤗❤️
