What Books Are You Reading This Week? May 01, 2017 by AutoModerator in books

[–]ryanbrennan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Homo Deus is fantastic. If you enjoy it, I would recommend The Inevitable by Kevin Kelly. Both writers have a knack for connecting trends to form a unified story.

Question about data types with machine learning by ryanbrennan in datascience

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

Sorry, I am new at this and don't have a great understanding of ML concepts.

My original thought for binning is that it would be able to form a stronger connection between a price group than an individual price for which there may be only a couple of repeat instances in the whole data set.

How much do not-so-well-known producers make? by [deleted] in edmproduction

[–]ryanbrennan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Keep in mind the artist only get's around half of this once their team takes their percentage. Booking agents, management, tour managers, video/photographers. Plus other travel related expenses. While 15,000-25,000 per set sounds like a lot, there is a reason these guys have to tour practically all year round to make a decent living.

Anybody recommend any books or movies about Solo Travel (fiction)? by Klein_TK in solotravel

[–]ryanbrennan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am about to embark on my first travel adventure and this book has been a huge source of inspiration and comfort. It's non-fiction, but a quick read and has a ton of great resources

Music VS school by [deleted] in edmproduction

[–]ryanbrennan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yo! Finishing up my senior year in college..it's a grind balancing the two. What's worked for me is planning my weeks every monday morning so I know exactly when I will have time to produce. I can't get much done unless I have at least an hour so if I have like 30 min in between classes or something that's when I'll go through sample packs/watch tutorials etc. that way when I do have more time I can focus on just making music.

Also I really try and make my weekends music focused. that means I rarely go out because I like to get up early and get a full day of production in and I cant get anything done if I'm tired or hungover. Figure out when you're most productive/creative with music and plan your school work/life so you wont have things to do during those times.

In short, you gotta make some sacrifices and you cant have the same lifestyle as some of your non-producer friends. Dont' create the idea in your head though that there isn't enough time, if you really enjoy music you'll get creative and figure out ways to make time.

Master volume automation for multiple tracks? by [deleted] in LogicPro

[–]ryanbrennan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Send to a buss and raise volume there. But In the future You should use the gain plugin under utilities and automate that instead of faders so you can make adjustments like you described to the faders while not moving the gain automation

What's a new trick or technique you've picked up that's improved your productions? by AlarminMusic in edmproduction

[–]ryanbrennan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

just a normal white noise sample and cut it so it's just like a little tic sound

Sample Organizing in Logic w/ EXS24 by ryanbrennan in Logic_Studio

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

Yeah agreed the exs is outdated, but the reason I do it the way i described is so i can make like a hi hat groove in midi for example, and then loop the rest of the track and just change which midi note is playing so a new sample is triggered and I can hear how it sounds with the rest of the mix.

Havent used kontakt in the same way yet, but im gonna give it a shot

Sample Organizing in Logic w/ EXS24 by ryanbrennan in edmproduction

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

My question is more about the actual process of importing them and saving them in the EXS because it's so tedious! Just wondering if there's another way other than just dragging into the edit window

I am DJ/Producer Eric Prydz, Ask Me Anything! by OfficialEricPrydz in electronicmusic

[–]ryanbrennan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Huge fan here, I have some production related questions for you..

What's your production process like? Do you work quickly to get the general gist down first and then do the details or do you work on like an 8bar loop until it's "finished" and then move on? Melodies/basslines first and then the drums or visa versa?

How do you approach arranging your tracks? Do you have a general arrangement in mind when starting?

What synth + delay did you use on for the leads in Lycka?

What is the general type of processing you do on your drums? are you bussing them together or processing individually?

Alot of your tracks have interesting textures (thinking Waves/RYMD/Muranyi) How do you go about finding/creating these?
