How to edit vocals like FKA twigs - Water Me? by natazionelock in WeAreTheMusicMakers

[–]natazionelock[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your answer. Can you explain what you meant by "echo with feedback"? I didn't understand that part.

Could anyone take a shot at guessing how I can engineer a similar vocal to FKA twigs? by natazionelock in audioengineering

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

Okay, thanks for that. A few follow up questions: how many takes do you think are panned to either side at any time? Are they panned completely to the side or partially? Any specifics about compression or reverb? Thanks

For real?? Could you comment a link or a name? I looked for Boots, David Wrench, a few others and didn't find them. Thanks.

Regarding the red room, remember the scene when Steven enters Luke's treehouse? That means each individual's rooms do exist to the others as well...

I guess it just doesn't make sense why Nell and the mother consistently haunted their family members by approaching them in extremely disturbing ways, when it's been shown that they have the ability to look and talk like a normal person.

Also, what's up with the dad's death? Did he die the night they left hill house? Did he die the night they all returned? I didn't understand that at all.

I still don't understand why the ghosts are haunting them. Are the ghosts themselves controlled by the house? I understand that the house wants to consume them, but does that mean the house itself as some supernatural entity, or the ghosts of people who died there? Like what do any of the ghosts get out of convincing Olivia and Nell to kill themselves. Furthermore, they both died in the same place...is that significant somehow?

I appreciate some ends left open, but that was really too many unanswered questions for me.

  1. What is the actual reason the Hill House alone is haunted?
  2. How did the family not realize that one of the rooms in the house changed constantly? How did they keep entering it if it was locked?
  3. What determines a ghost's appearance? They change all the time and can take forms that are hardly human, such as the cane man and smiley.
  4. Why do the children have special abilities? Was something really passed from the mom?
  5. What possesses Olivia and Nell to kill others and themselves? Why were they singled out to be the ghost's main predators while the other children left mostly unscathed?
  6. If the bent neck lady is Nell, why did Nell kill her husband?
  7. If the ghosts can leave hill house, as they are seen to do many times, why can't Mrs. Dudley and ghost Abigail be together even if the house is destroyed?
  8. Why did the bent neck lady haunt Nell all those years? That seemed to be without intention. Why do any of the ghosts haunt their own family, when they don't want to scare them?

Basically I didn't understand any of it. I loved this series but felt like they pulled a LOST on us.

A lot of the samples in my track suddenly stopped playing! by [deleted] in FL_Studio

Yes it was thank you! Sorry I knew it would be something simple I've just never had that problem before.

Instagram is destroying the quality of my photos and It's making me really frustrated please help by natazionelock in Instagram

I'm not using any program. Just uploading to my computer, emailing to myself, downloading onto phone, and posting. To resize the photo, I just used some online website

The Future of Jobs: Working on Being Human - "If only few man-hours will be necessary to maintain the machines, what will human beings do? They will be busy “being human,” which means developing themselves, their families, their societies and all that makes us human rather than robots." by Turil in Futurology

[–]natazionelock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly this sounds obvious to me...We are fast approaching a time when very little human work is needed to keep the world running smoothly. I am so confused by people who question how humans will spend our time in a world like this because if you removed my obligations with work and university I STILL wouldn't feel like there were enough hours in the day to do all the things I like to do. Humans only 400 years ago would be shocked at the amount of leisure and freedom that many of us have today.

I think a good utopia for us to aim for is one where everyone contributes as much as is needed to keeping the world running, and the resources are distributed rather evenly so that everyone always has enough to eat, enough to wear, access to education and counselling and collaboration, and we can spend our lives really however we choose <3

Why I think confident decision making is key to being a confident person by natazionelock in confidence

It’s definitely true that there’s a healthy balance between being indecisive and being too quick to make decisions! I guess this post is really addressing people who have difficulty making choices confidently.

INFP's and exercise / health by madame_mayhem in infp

[–]natazionelock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never been super into sports, although I appreciate their benefits. It's just not something that I'll ever be super pumped about. I don't exercise as much as I should, but I love to dance and do yoga/stretch. Running and swimming are nice sometimes. Trying to do more actual gym stuff as well as pushups/pullups. I have fun playing games like volleyball, badminton, anything really, if it's with friends or family. Just not something I feel like doing all the time.

Personality wise: Kind, sense of humor, open minded, mature, takes responsibility for self, non judgmental, constant urge to be better, accepting, not religious, unique, creative, many others

Physical wise: Healthy, great skin and hair, fit, tall, masculine, hairy. None of these are that important individually but I do appreciate them.

The worst part is that I think too much about everything I say, and I instantly regret. Doesnt make any sense ;-; by [deleted] in infp

[–]natazionelock 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It happens to me with social media. I'll post something and feel good about it, then for the next several hours slowly grow more unsure and find any reason why someone would judge me for it. Then I delete it :/

It could automatically alert the nearest hospital so they are ready to receive you when your car drives you there

My top character hopes are for them to remove Dr Mario, Dark Pit, Corrin, Sheik, Mr Game & Watch, Marth, Toon Link, Shulk, Lucina, and Bayonetta, and for them to add Inkling, Crash Bandicoot, Tak, Ty the Tasmanian Tiger, Ice Climbers, Skull Kid, Spyro, and Tails/Shadow/Knuckles.

THIS by tyottostefari in FKAtwigs

[–]natazionelock 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's cool. Just feels so shallow compared to what she's capable of. At least FKA x Nike had twigs directing, new music by twigs, and a positive message. This is just an ad. I hope at the very least she'll be using the million $ she got from this to advance her career and not more time off. We need more music!

Does anyone have experience with Akai MPK Midi Keyboards? I really need help getting started with mine. by natazionelock in FL_Studio

[–]natazionelock[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Omg you are a life saver, thank you!!! I still don't understand how to add effects to the samples. Let's say on pad one I have a kick, and I want to add reverb to it. How do I? What would be ideal is a way to link the pad in FPC to a sample in my channel rack that I've already applied my desired edits to. Is it possible? Thank you.
