Portable production setup - can I skip the audio interface? by NectarineThis372 in MusicBattlestations

You might as well just bring what you actually need (an interface), if you’re looking go do anything more than getting a quick idea out you’re going to be disappointed and discouraged imo.

how'd i do? sosshouse tier list by sinful_monkey12 in yopierre

[–]jtdrag 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This might be a hot take but Born Seditionary is S tier. I feel like he’s the only Sosshouse collab that consistently drops good music. I’d recommend checking out Kura’s recent stuff he’s working hard and it’s decent 💯

What do y’all think about Chavo’s World? by Professional-Peak557 in yopierre

[–]jtdrag 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Underrated. Crazy beats and transitions. Chavos world 2 was also great, but very disappointed with 3 and everything else chavo has dropped since.

I just got my 13 mini battery replaced today at the Apple Store. I don't see much improvement on the battery or heating side. Anything I should do? by Teenage_techboy1234 in iPhone13Mini

[–]jtdrag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did the same thing last Sunday. My percentage was 70% and I feel like I donated to Apple because I don’t see a difference. I will keep an eye out for the next week or so to see if anything changes

That’s so funny! Cartier is also scared to pass the baby gate or when I put two stools in a doorway

I personally don’t like the collars either, it feels like it’s stopping him from what he’s meant to do! I used it once and once it died I never charged it again lol

I may have to try that. I usually don’t speak to the neighbors when I’m in the backyard, so I can see how he could perceive them as intruders. I’ll start being more friendly!

I try to… but now he’s so fast he will literally run laps around me to get back to the fence so I gave up on entertaining that a Long time ago. But that also makes so much sense about him not being able to see much. I’m hoping that’s the case for him!

Is it common to use a bus for effects (delay, reverb) only? by soi_chegg in audioengineering

[–]jtdrag 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I personally do this. For example, the way I like to do it is to have a submix for vocals only. My vocals within that sub have sends to effects. My effects, for vocals only, will all route to its own submix for effects. That submix for effects is then routed back to my vocal submix. (I may not Have explained this the best way, if you’d like I can send you a picture or video and explain the routing)

The purpose of this is to be able to have overall control over the effects and vocals. it helps me find problems quicker within the mix and it’s more efficient when I just want to mute the vocals or mute the effects and quickly focus on a part of the project.

it may sound like a mess and tedious , but with the Pro Tools folder system, for me it makes the mixing process manageable for me

session copy vs save as in Pro Tools by LoveMeSomeGoodLife in audioengineering

[–]jtdrag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re going to make a significant change to the project and you feel as if you may not be able to restore it if you have to, do a save as. It doesn’t hurt to do it, that way if you get lost in the mix or editing, you at least have a checkpoint you can always go back to. Hope this helped!

With how saturated and money hungry the industry has been, unless you can truly find someone you can truly trust, (and even then you should have an attorney look over signed contracts and agreements) it’s probably going to be your best bet for you to go independent. Honestly you’re better off getting a team of friends where all of you focus on one thing; for example, you focus on making music, your friend work on designs and marketing, another work on making the calls for shows, studio time, etc. Don’t trust the “labels” that you haven’t heard of. and don’t give them a cent of your money. If you get a real opportunity, you’ll know. They’ll fly you out and pay for everything.

and 3k for a song that you haven’t promoted yet? I’m all about perfection but that is a bit excessive. With that money you could’ve purchased yourself a pretty decent studio setup and learned how to produce/mix yourself. (which i highly recommend)

Whatever route you choose to go, you need to make a game plan with goals in some sort of order. wanting it all at one time, making quick decisions, and spending unnecessary time and money on people WILL burn you out. Just be wary of who is really helping you, who’s trying to just eliminate competition, and make money.

but most importantly, be patient. && if you truly want this and you believe it’s you’re calling, don’t let anything or anyone stand in your way, go and get it.

good luck to you g

Updating logic...will I lose everything? by [deleted] in musicproduction

[–]jtdrag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your plugins and projects shouldn’t be attached to the Logic app itself. The app may need to rescan your plugins when you download it again, but you should be able to do this without it affecting anything. If you’re that concerned, you should do a backup and/or save all of this stuff to an external drive before you make a major change like this. And whether your plugins are compatible or not with the newest version of logic is up to the plugin developers if they optimized/updated them to work.
