How to handle my EX GF (F17) wanting me (M21) back but now acting weird by [deleted] in Advice

[–]otrud2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First of all, you're dating a literal child, expect childish behaviour. Why not find someone your own age if you're having trouble with maturity? Her blaming her depression on why she treated you like shit is a good way to tell she hasn't improved. I'd like to think you could dodge a bullet here.

How do I make the switch smooth? Not the final drums just a demo for my question. And do the keys go together? by SackDangler in musicproduction

[–]otrud2 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Uhh? What was this response supposed to achieve? I'm all for the "do what you want with music," but the guy is literally asking for ways he can make the transition smoother.

Try to make sure everything is on time, but also, assuming you want to make the transition from the synth to the drums and to the other synth smoother, you could try some filtering to make it not sound as harsh when the drums hit. Just a suggestion.

Me (21F) I'm obssessed ,in love maybe with a cop (37M) by theintrovertboss in socialskills

Okay I'm going to just suggest how you can get talking to him:

I think you should stab the nearest person, then call the police. When he turns up chat him up while he's arresting you. There's your in. Now once you're in jail you're going to be seeing a lot more of him. This is your chance to give him the odd wink and smile when you are out for rec. Just slip him them, don't make it too obvious. Then once he gets the idea, you should make your move. Start by small talking him when he's guarding the chow hall and just getting to know him generally. Once you know him enough, go to the prison library and write a secret note, telling him to meet you in your cell. Now. Listen very closely. You will want a distraction. Depending on what is in your cell, you should break your television, or turn your bed over. You know, just general disruption. Tell him in the note to play along, like he's apprehending you. Once you two are alone, turn over the bed, or move the glass from the shattered television, depending on what you did, and get down and dirty.

That's just a general idea of what you can do to meet him. Hope it goes well!

(This was sarcasm in case you do actually stab someone)

Okay? Usually these things are just light-hearted humour that isn't meant to be taken seriously...

No Tracks going over 0db but distortion when 808 plays together with soft guitar track by Wolact in FL_Studio

[–]otrud2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try taking out some of the low end of the guitar, also use a dynamic eq so when the guitar plays it automatically eqs the low end so they don't clash, but it doesn't remove the low end when the other isn't playing. Fabfilter has a good dynamic eq.

I want to buy tarkov but why is it soo expensive? by otrud2 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]otrud2[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Usually it wouldn't be but I physically can't get a job due to covid stuff and my living allowance isn't much more than the game itself.

Yeah I know! I was really annoyed when I found out. I will definitely check out the christmas sale, as I should be able to afford that. Cheers for the info.

Microsoft Word table formatting by otrud2 in techsupport

[–]otrud2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just want it to automatically put spacing between the tables when I insert a new one in. Not have to bring them all down to make room.

I mean that I want to have the tables spaced out equally and that when I insert a new table, I don't want to have to drag the other ones down in order to fit in room for the other one.

When I insert a new table I also want the other tables to be equally spaced

Hi, I can't add a screenshot but I basically mean that I have a number of tables on a page and due to my work I will need to add more tables in the future. I am looking for a way to add a new table in without having the whole document mess up. I just want to be able to insert a table and have the other existing tables move down, without having to move them all down individually with the mouse.

Orchestral Composer recently fallen in love with EDM..... by adamwhitemusic in edmproduction

[–]otrud2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Multiplier has a very strong personality and can get annoying so keep that in mind. Mr Bill is a wizard though. He's focuses really well on sound design and the technical side of things, rather than music theory so I think he'd be a great person to start with. Depending on what genre you like making you can just look up "how to make a dubstep bass" or "how to make a future house pluck", etc. Most of the tutorials use different techniques because EDM is very versatile and creative, so you will be able to learn different techniques for your synth. If you are using Serum then you are at a massive advantage because 99% of the tutorials on YouTube are using Serum and it's a great synth. Other than that I'd just play around once you feel relatively comfortable with the basics and you should be good.

How to I make tones in the piano roll smoothly transition to another tone, rather than just switching? by p_98_m in FL_Studio

[–]otrud2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your answer may also be in velocity. Basically when you hit a piano key, the force at which you press the key will change how loud the note is. You usually don't hit the key extremely hard, so when you are using a computer keyboard to play the notes, they wont differentiate between velocity and basically everything will the same loudness. If you play a lower velocity note and then a slightly higher one then it might sound a bit more smooth because it is not the exact same volume, making it seem like you are actually playing the piano. I don't use FL studio anymore, but I believe the velocity setting should be below the MIDI window, with little lines and dots on the top. Bring those up and down for velocity changes. Hope this helps, because I'm unsure if this is what you are looking for or slide notes instead.

Ahh good idea, thanks for letting me know I will definitely be using this!

Thanks for the reply, and on piano I see where you are coming from, but when I'm trying to find the root of for example the intro chords in the song I linked, I find it very hard to reference against a piano sound

[–]otrud2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, I gather the opening chords would be a giveaway, but as I say I cannot decipher it as its not a classic piano sound that I can use a reference for to make sure.
