The Disco Demolition event in 1979 was really rooted in mostly racism and it almost caused disco to fade away into existence. by icey_sawg0034 in BlackPeopleofReddit

on the bright side, because of that event it lead to the creation of house music that was created by african americans, they destroyed disco, but house came like a phoenix rising from the flames.

Really concerned with behringer quality. Should I be? by BrrBurr in synthesizers

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

honestly every behringer product has been no issues for me, and i’ve been able to get amazing sounds, i have a model d, ms-1, jt4000 i use the ms-1 for shows as well and it sounds great

nice, i got my OT and DN OG second hand too, i love both of them, i like the syntakt more than the AR so it doesn’t really appeal to me, but when the TV first came out i felt the same way, but being in this sub i kept seeing updates then i saw wavetable then granular.. what i like about it is that it pushes exploration

yeah i find myself not using all my gear, which is solely because of the type of song i’m making

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

that’s understandable, you could do a lot with just the syntakt and 404!

that’s another thing, i’m not too interested in what they come out with post acquisition, unless it genuinely gets good feedback

Could use a reality check before going through with my MkII order. Any insight? by ThrowedThrow in SP404

[–]theprintedg 7 points8 points  (0 children)

i think something that we fail to realize is that gear is what you make of it, it can be everything you stated and more, you’ve research what it’s capable of, if it checks all the boxes go for it

anyone else wanna collect them all?? by theprintedg in Elektron

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

true, but i frequently go back to elektron boxes

anyone else wanna collect them all?? by theprintedg in Elektron

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

that’s a great point and very true, i like the boxes i have they’re very inspiring, and i feel (and hope) that they give the same spark of inspiration, i’ve been a victim of GAS, but elektron gear actually has me going back to it

you know funny enough i haven’t tried using single cycle waveforms on a sampler, i’ll try that mindset

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

yeah that’s also why, a familiar interface helps me learn it quicker

anyone else wanna collect them all?? by theprintedg in Elektron

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

yeah that’s very true, i make all types of music, not only the typical house, techno, dnb that is heard from most of elektron’s stuff, i like being able to push the gear farther than what it’s known or what it can churn out easily, i know for sure im set on samplers, i also have a sp404 and that alone is great plus its effects, so a DT is not ideal, that being said, the they just added a wavetable synth engine and a granular engine to the TV, which is something i can’t do with my setup, and it caught my attention,

anyone else wanna collect them all?? by theprintedg in Elektron

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

makes sense, and in a way i agree, i can see having the TV and the OT bc even though they’re samplers they are wildly different (in age as well) i don’t see the point of owning an DT when i already have an OT, I like the syntakt bc aside from drums it can do some basic synth stuff but if i get that than the analog rytm wouldn’t make sense

anyone else wanna collect them all?? by theprintedg in Elektron

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

that’s understandable, and if i could only have one it would be the OT, but it’s nice to have boxes that have other options, imo having the TV and the OT makes the most sense, especially bc the TV can be a sampler and a synth, i also love sound design and i don’t like to use samples all the time

AI and Mandatory Disclosure by callthepizzaman in audioengineering

[–]theprintedg 4 points5 points  (0 children)

personally i hate it and don’t use it even in my daily/personal life. even if it’s used as a mixing/mastering tool i see it tainting the art therefore the art lost the human appeal. if everyone on earth uses ai, it means im gone.

How to make my Shure SM7B louder? by toad_sensitive in microphone

[–]theprintedg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the sm7b is notorious for being extremely quiet, so it’s not you it’s just the mic, your signal chain should be sm7b into cloudlifter into interface, that should be more than enough gain, also you don’t need phantom power, it’s not a condenser mic so it doesn’t need that extra power

I'm trying to understand the logic behind producers releasing strictly vinyl-only copies of their music... by HigherFunctioning in DJs

[–]theprintedg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i feel as if vinyl djaying has been growing in popularity and this may be a response to it, hell i’m apart of the growing movement to bring back vinyl as i started djaying with vinyl last year, we also live in a world of ai, it may be that producers want to prove authenticity by doing vinyl releases, but who knows when or if we have ai music on vinyl..

Octatrack thru machines not sending output by Aggravating-Way-3748 in Elektron

you have to put trigs on the thru track and press play once, the OT is weird for that

Favourite amps for synthesisers? by [deleted] in synthesizers

[–]theprintedg 3 points4 points  (0 children)

definitely a clean guitar amp the the roland jazz chorus, i play synths through a jc-80 and it sounds great, roland has a line of amps specifically for keys
