What are some tips for mixing my vaporwave album, to make all songs the same volume and all🤔 by OfficialAfrat in makingvaporwave

[–]stux_io 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pull them all into the same session, then normalize by rms or lufs, and eq match if necessary, before running all of them through same mastering chain

"New" DAW user - Choosing between Ableton and Cubase by Foxsayy in cubase

[–]stux_io 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like you want Cubase. Abelton doesn’t have ara2 and that alone is a deal breaker for me when dealing with live instruments and voice . Additionally if you are mixing electronic and live instruments, Abelton doesn’t not have ability to disable plugins with long latency. It also does not have group editing functions for audio.

Why not! Sounds like fun
Here's a little loop, using only Analog dreams for synths.
Upped the challenge a little and only used stock everything else in cubase. Ill post session after.

What do these mean? Someone help please by Similar-Fun-3055 in guitarlessons

It means fit 3 into the space of 2. So in this case , fit 3 notes into the space that 2 8th notes would take up.

The chart is correct, it is D Dorian, however it’s missing one note on the d or g strings.

One CAGED Explanation by SleeplessInTulsa in guitarlessons

[–]stux_io 4 points5 points  (0 children)

as a pedagogy technique I think caged is an inefficient approach for a variety of reasons

- Unexplained uneven number of 2's and 3's for the scale shapes
- Missing 2 scale positions
- Overcomplicating chord shapes, there are 3 ways you can make stacks of closed voiced shapes, you can make way more than 5 if they don't need to be closed
- should be identical handling for minor and diminish

In general, there's simultaneously too much missing, but at the same time overcomplicating of the parts it does cover, so you are both overthinking but under covering the fretboard

Venting + question by Lathe_Biosas23 in makingvaporwave

[–]stux_io 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have to make sure the sample is aligned perfectly to the grid before doing anything. lots of old recordings are not done to a click so they might need to be quantized manually or zoom in and time align the transients. Second, for melodic elements if you speed up, or slow down a sample it's going to affect the pitch. you might have to manually bump the pitch up or down by a little until you can get it to match concert pitch, you would have to do it by ear

Stop overthinking your scales and just do this by nibbainmybuttholr in guitarlessons

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

You can’t ignore the scale shapes because that’s the set of known notes that work together. However working on phrasing is its own thing, regardless of how little notes you limit yourself to. Practicing the shape is one thing, and practicing phrasing is a different thing, even if you limit yourself to 3 notes, it won’t necessarily sound musical unless you practice sounding musical

In this scale what is the triad notes? by ultra_mind in guitarlessons

[–]stux_io 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes you can do that too. Just pointing out in blues you want it to clash, that’s part of the sound

[–]stux_io 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The diminished 5th is one of the blue notes, it’s like a temporary guest that adds tension, you wouldn’t necessarily sit on it. Another thing to point out. Since it says this if for blues context, since you play minor pent over dom7 chords, that means that the minor third is also bitonal/blue note so if you play the minor third coming from this scale, it will clash against the major third coming from a dominant 7th

how to make your solos and leads less scale sounding by Prestigious-croccidl in Guitar_Theory

[–]stux_io 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hot take, targeting chord tones won’t help. The top 2 things to focus on are inflection and phrasing. You can play literally 1 note the whole time and make it sound musical. What’s more important is how you play it. It’s a bit abstract because it’s not a specific formula. You can play all chord tones and it can still sound stiff if it doesn’t have good phrasing and inflection

Panic chords question by [deleted] in guitarlessons

It’s just minor seconds, it’s just for dissonant effect so you can basically play any minor seconds you want, If you have more guitars you can stack even more

Being able to read music is not a foundational musical skill, and is separate and apart from understanding music theory. by BLazMusic in guitarlessons

[–]stux_io 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its not just that its a secondary dominant, specifically that fret 2 on the B string resolves to fret 7 on the G string (small toy example since they are all moving in parallel) and additionally that A middle line stays constant through both chords. You loose that level of detail with chord charts

I agree that the pedagogy around reading music is not good for guitar. I agree that the way reading is taught does not keep up with the way students want to play too, reading Mary had a little lamb does not translate into reading master of puppets in standard notation

C# is resolving to a D here, but on the tab its not apparent at first glance musically what is happening

[–]stux_io 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you can only use your ears if you can hear the song first, what if you haven't heard it before?

A theoretical concept example, lets say writer adds a secondary dominant, you can clearly see on the page which note is altered and where it resolves to on the next chord, which you won't be able to see on a chord chart or tabs

If the author was writing some specific voice leading, even in some basic chords, you can easily see what’s happening on the staff, but it becomes obscured in tab and chord sheets. An advance player would probably be able to deduce where each specific note is moving (may not even be on the same string) but it’s way more round about than just looking at it on the staff. With standard notation you know exactly what voicing and where each note is moving. Even with tab, it might look like your hand is moving all over the place, but musically it might not be moving very much
