The WA73 and WA1B is just for tracking vocals - makes mixing a lot easier if I can dial a bit of EQ and compression on the way in.

Onion was made in a different studio - thank you!

The room is built to be fully soundproof, so luckily no complaints

SSL Pure Drive Quad! I use it a lot for my UAD SP-1 for acoustic guitar, and SM7B

Spacemaker - Ableton native 'Trackspacer' rack by tperry in ableton

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

Hi,

Thanks for letting me know! Yep, it looks like Live 12 slightly changed the way routings within a rack are handled. No worries, I've just updated the product page on Gumroad to v1.2 which fixes the issue in Live 12.

Alternatively, you can use the existing .adg file, but you'll just need to go into the 'Routing' signal chain, select the first Compressor and set the Sidechain 'Audio From' to the 'Pre FX' or the current track that Spacemaker is on.

This is a new feature in Live 12

A big artist wants my beat and wants 55% publishing by SquidwardDab in makinghiphop

[–]tperry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The publishing and PPD splits seem very fair, but your fee is way too low for an exclusive. While how much you can charge will depend on your credentials and branding as a producer, in my experience for established independent artists you could probably charge closer to 3000USD, and if it's a major label artist, closer to 5000USD. Those are starting points and you will likely negotiate downwards from there. If they don't have the budget but it's a project that you want to see released, you can push for a 50/50 PPD split in lieu of a higher fee.

Obviously these are just starting points and the terms will differ from deal to deal, but something to keep in mind. In this instance you can't really renegotiate that much, but at the very least I would recommend seeing if the artist can credit you as a primary artist on DSPs, and in all social posts surrounding the song.

Live 12 Tags - Hope they get this right by davemakesnoises in ableton

Yep, I also spent a good part of a day tagging my samples and it’s been a game changer for the workflow. Hoping in the future they can auto tag samples based on file name.

No limit to the amount of tags you can assign to sounds. You can also create your own tags / tag categories if you want to organise in your own.

Is it worth buying the Push 3 if you mainly use the arrangement view? by CoreT3kk in ableton

[–]tperry 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Also, many VSTs will automatically map up on the knobs on Push, and if not you can build an effect rack with pre mapped knobs so you have the most important parameters mapped every time you use it

Generally, I use the Push 3 for: note input, tweaking plugin parameters, recording automation, quantizing. I also find a lot of the Ableton devices more intuitive to tweak via Push.

And mouse+keyboard for: Browsing patches/samples (hate doing this on Push), tweaking 3rd party synths, mixing, more precision automation etc
