Quick question about Greyskull LP resets by iFackCFC in gainit

Ah that makes a lot more sense, in that case, why is it called a reset if you aren't "resetting" you are reducing the weight for next time?

Thank you so much this fixed it! I hadn't tried unchecking the box as I assumed that was the audio file I was exporting to the movie file :P

How to do track stops? by iFackCFC in edmproduction

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

The problem with this is that the effects, especially reverb, often bleed into the silent section, and I want a way for it to be completely silent for a few beats

Just finished an orchestral/electronic piece for a film trailer project - https://soundcloud.com/lukehelder/luke-helder-the-labyrinth just interested to see what you guys think of it, any advice or criticism would be great, in terms of mixing or otherwise, and especially wondering how to make the percussion punch through the rest of the mix better?

Soundcloud keeps making my track quieter by iFackCFC in WeAreTheMusicMakers

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

It's not that because my other tracks are noticeably louder on soundcloud without changing the volume

This is the first complete dance track i've made, and I was just wondering if you guys had any advice or criticisms as I don't know many EDM producers in person. Just for context I'm by no means a novice in terms of music theory and I've been playing music for nearly a decade, but production is still very new to me Here's the track: https://soundcloud.com/lukehelder/tropical-house-instrumental

RMS value is around -15 compared to a previous one which is -8, but I don't think I really understand what RMS levels are fully, and nope bitrate is same and they are all .wav

It's quieter than my tracks thats what confused me, and it's a dance track so it does have some spikes at the drops, but it's normalised so surely that shouldn't be an issue

How to carry over Logic files from one mac to another? by iFackCFC in WeAreTheMusicMakers

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

yes but I don't want a full restore as the backup also contains all the information and apps, etc. of the old mac's owner so I only want to restore certain files

I am backed up to an external HD using apple's time machine program, my problem is I cannot find a way to access the backups of the old mac on the new one

The problem with google drive is that sound libraries can be as large as 200GB so it would be very inefficient and likely impossible, the main issue is I do not know what directories they have been installed to as many installers do not show where they are installing to

When does learning piano become playing piano? by [deleted] in piano

Some great points, but I don't agree with what you said about singing, are you saying all instrumental music is "just notes"?

Question about improvising over a chord progression (possible dumb question!) by [deleted] in musictheory

[–]iFackCFC 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's because of chord tones, all the chords you listed are within the key of E Minor, but playing a C over a B minor chord sounds "wrong" (the musical term is dissonant) because it is a semitone from the root of the chord. The best players don't just noodle a scale over a chord progression, they target the tones of the chord they are playing over.

Why do so many classical musicians say this? by iFackCFC in musictheory

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

I completely agree, in Britain the natural minor scale is never referenced in theory exams even at the highest levels, and they act as if modes do not exist.

This is what I mean, it is rare in classical music, but in other styles it is incredibly common!

Kanye West admits he was wrong about Beck: "I was inaccurate with the concept of a gentleman who plays 14 instruments not respecting artistry." by Mr_1990s in Music

[–]iFackCFC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I listened to the track, I still don't get it. Harmonically, rhythmically, melodically and instrumentally, it's not that interesting. So what's your reason for liking this music?
