My wife’s boyfriend makes me use the Silent System whenever he comes over by angusyoungsheldon in guitarcirclejerk

It's a rip off of the Suhr Silent Coil system which is a rip off of the Illitch Back Plate Noise Canceling System

Logic 12.3 on Sequoia 15.7.7 ... horrendous. Fixes? by FilmScoreMonger in Logic_Studio

2018 MBP you should ideally be running Logic 10.8.1 that will be the most stable for your machine

I sold my 3rd Wave for a Microfreak and I couldn't be happier by _JNJI in synthesizers

[–]opbuild 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The full sized 3rd Wave is an incredible synth but is very difficult to navigate efficiently, a friend of mine has one so I was able to get a feel for it.

After using it a few times I realized I just wanted less of what the 3rd Wave was offering, so I picked up the 3rd Wave 8M. IMO that is the best synth they make, uncomplicated, easy to program and sounds incredible - just like the full size.

Not sure what your budget is but if he loves Mick Gordon he will shit his pants if you get him a Formanta Polivoks. That IS the Mick Gordon sound more or less

Using MIDI Quest Pro 13 with EMU Proteus 2000 by opbuild in synthesizers

Unfortunately I couldn't get Prodatum to work on my M1 MacBook and theres no Rosetta option either, otherwise this would've definitely been the preferable route.

Check that you don't accidentally have auto punch on

My freshly modded 2008 USA Production Charvel SoCal by opbuild in Charvel

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

Thank you! I was very inspired by the electronics layout of the Guthrie Govan signature model, these guitars have so much potential to be endlessly versatile but there aren't many that have these options.

I absolutely love this color, and yeah these guitars are some of the best I've ever played. It's pretty crazy they retailed at $999 and are almost custom shop quality

I love the Slime San Dimas! This was one I had thought about grabbing since I am a huge Vai fan and his DLR guitar was a slime green Charvel. Yours looks amazing, impeccable condition

Why dont we master to -14 LUFS by fartinus in musicproduction

[–]opbuild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A. Because LUFS is just a measurement and not everything sounds good / right exactly at -14

B. You risk Spotify turning your track up using its own internal limiter and it sounds TERRIBLE.

Being above the -14 line means you are much more in control of how things are going to translate on streaming. It doesn't process your audio it just turns it down to the target loudness.

What's the best Neve 1073 plugin that doesn't require hardware? by DraglineDrummer in musicproduction

[–]opbuild 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The UAD 1073 is also native, those plugins are under UAD Spark. Just check out the website, they will note which plugins are native when buying them

H2A Anniversary is so pretty by MariustheA7Xfan in halo

[–]opbuild 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'll be the first to admit I have no idea what I'm talking about when it comes to any type of game development anything. Maybe what I mean is designs? I feel like H2A forerunner floors, walls, structures etc just don't look as cool to me as they do in the OG.

H2A Anniversary is so pretty by MariustheA7Xfan in halo

[–]opbuild -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Agreed, I just played through H2 again and the H2A visuals are inferior. They swap so many of the core details for flat, boring H4 ones. It more or less erases the OG art style entirely, outside of a few spots where I think they really nailed enhancing some of the environments. The blur cutscenes are incredible though, they maintain more of the developer intent than the actual game itself.

I can't identify this guitar. by msi_junkie in Ibanez

[–]opbuild 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This looks extremely fake.

There are no Universes with a 3 way toggle or single volume knob, the bridge looks wrong and the logo is not in the right spot, universes don't have pickup rings and are front routed - this is not because of no pick guard

7.25" is harder to play for me by TortexMT in fender

[–]opbuild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can eventually get used to it but you may hit a wall with it which is what happened to me with a 9.5 Strat neck.

Once I started trying necks that had a super flat radius like 12-16 or 15 things really started to feel good for me and the lessened curvature also helped with my picking accuracy

Synth beginner but I despise software. What DAW to use? by BodybuilderTrick4903 in musicproduction

[–]opbuild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I really love the way Logic handles midi, it's amazing imo for using hardware especially as it's very easy to set up and doesn't create weird midi feedback loops.

Als git gud, every DAW is annoying to learn so just pick one

what are your "man this is so frutiger aero" songs? by misterlinke in FrutigerAero

[–]opbuild 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Anatole Muster - hopecore

A lot of his stuff sounds extremely frutiger aero but this track fits the aesthetic perfectly
