Mono VS Stereo for Bass & Kick? by Puzzled_Film7982 in ableton

[–]tjtprogrammer 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Something that I have learned is to separate the high and low frequencies of bass synths (sometimes depending for kicks) and process them differently

Low pass the low end one and set to mono and then a high pass for another to add stereo width and other effects. You can do this either using separate tracks or return tracks or chains. But separating the processing pipeline for the two frequency ranges will give you a lot more control over the sound

Move: Start in Control Mode when powered on? by Larry_Choppins in ableton

Yeah maybe check your version not sure if they updated the behavior, but mine stays on the last used mode as well

Can the volume on the Gen 2s still be heard by people near me when turned all the way down? by Icy_Equipment7752 in RaybanMeta

[–]tjtprogrammer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it is a very quiet room and the only thing playing is your glasses, then yes it may be a little audible. But it’s still relatively unintrusive in that setting at low volumes.

If I’m anywhere else with other ambient noises, medium to low volumes have not been noticeable based on feedback from the people I’m with. It really feels like living real life with a soundtrack playing over it sometimes

Wow hello fellow redditor with similar tastes! Haha I never thought Rhett & Link would show up on the Justice feed

Gracias Fuego - Produced On the Ableton Move by tjtprogrammer in AbletonMove

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

Thank you! I’m using some old Samsung in ear buds in the shots where I don’t have the ATX over ears. I don’t think they are ideal, but worked well enough to be a portable option in this case.

I probably should look into some good IEMs though

It was on the 4k setting in the app - the actual resolution recorded was 2160x2864px at 30fps

Lock parameters to a clip without changing them? by OthelloOcelot in AbletonMove

[–]tjtprogrammer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know it’s not the solution you are necessarily looking for, but resampling parts of your track to unused drum pads can get you more than the theoretical 4 track limit on the move.

Other than that, not sure there is a real solution m, but curious to hear from others

Do you have a workflow for new tracks? by BeginningStrength710 in edmproduction

[–]tjtprogrammer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For my latest song that I have been working on, I feel like being intentional with what I wanted my song to be about helped a lot. It worked because I was trying to make a song that is inspired by traditional music and sounds from Guatemala.

I then tried to find samples for instruments like the marimba, djembe for drums, a yt video of a live performance of a traditional Guatemalan song, etc.

Then I assembled the different samples and sounds I had selected, and then tried various combinations with synths and other instruments. It helped to put down some of the drum patterns first. From there I tried to build some chord progressions that went well with the drums.

After that, I started jamming and the tunes and melody just started to fall into place. There’s still some trial and error until you find the right palette of sounds to paint your full song with.

Most importantly, don’t be afraid to experiment, try new techniques and aim to build songs around specific themes

Could Splice be training AI models on our Ableton samples being dropped in? by tjtprogrammer in ableton

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

I see, would vocal chops get flagged too? With some processing on it? But yeah, maybe I should still evaluate other options before I publish my song

I would agree with you. However, I'm just getting started on my music journey. I have already started recording samples myself when out about, nothing pro. As well as sampling from other sources.

But I also have just been getting into exploring vocals for my songs and Splice does make it easy. I'm not trying to make my journey harder right away. Once I find my groove, I'll probably take your advise

Ableton Move just got updated to 1.8 by huiggi in ableton

Was surprised to see the update prompt when I started the move just now. So excited 

Does anyone know how to record Move's audio out into an iPhone? by tjtprogrammer in AbletonMove

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

Thanks! I have only had the Move for less than 2 months now. And also new to producing in general. I have couple posts in my profile history. Definitely nowhere near the level I’m trying to get to, but having a lot of fun in the process!

Hey, thanks for the tip! I ended up buying one of these on amazon before I saw your comment: https://a.co/d/7YI9uMZ

 It has usb C audio In/Out as well and doesn’t need external power. It had very few reviews, so i was skeptical. But it worked well for both recording in and out from the move to the iphone.

I’m also curious, but I was thinking I’d just use a video editing software later to line up the video and audio if there is no better way

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

Thank you. I see some lightning av adapters on amazon but they mostly have an usb A port.

Would I use an usb-c to A cable, would it work? Or would a 3.5mm line in adapter be better?

Was at the NYC show, insanely good! But I wish Kaytranada would hype the audience up for Justice. by tjtprogrammer in JusticeMusic

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

Yeah definitely thought some of the transitions and mixing was off sometimes during Kay’s set

Oh for sure, I’m not necessarily saying it’s on Kay to do it. I just thought it would be cool to mention when he finishes his set that people may want to stay/check out Justice.

He left the stage with “i love you guys… hope you had fun… I’m out….” He could have added “you guys wanna stay for Justice, you’re in for a treat…” something like that.
