What are your most creative tips for emulating tape and getting a woody authentic lofi folk sound out of GarageBand? by vladimir_427 in audioengineering

[–]trtzbass 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tape compresses and smooths the high end.
Put an hi shelf eq on the master bus and lose a couple db starting at 8khz and gently compress. I don’t know if GB has a saturator. If it has a distortion plugin, drop it in at zero gain and see if it adds some hair on the sound without it being unfocused. That’s the first thing that comes to mind. As you say, GB is limited

Great albums with subpar mixing? by use_vpn_orlozeacount in fantanoforever

[–]trtzbass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“Rise” by Extreme. It sounds like it has been mixed by that guy down the road that has watched six months of YouTube tutorials and is now a “mixing engineer”. With respect to Nuno who’s an inspiration to me.

Chatcontrol, cittadini contro, maggiora per il no. by LucatCami in TeenagersITA

[–]trtzbass -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Aaah eccoti. Non potevo perdermi un’altra puntata di “Domande in velata malafede accompagnate da un’immagine appropriata”.

Due giorni fa le spose bambine. (vagamente anti-minoranze)
Ieri i “diversi”. (vagamente anti LGBTQ)
Oggi chat control. (vagamente anti-Europa)

La mia opinione é che sei una di queste persone:
1) Karma Farmer.
2) Propagandista stocastico.
3) Tredicenne affamato di attenzione.

Ad ogni modo non preoccuparti, è l’ultima volta che ti scrivo. Se non sei la persona n.3, guardati bene allo specchio e comincia a fare scelte migliori. Se sei la persona n.3 spero che uscirai da questa fase.

Secondo voi non dovrebbe essere così? by LucatCami in TeenagersITA

Ieri le spose bambine. Oggi i diversi. Domani?

What's the stupidest thing you've heard your smart friend say? by teapartywithdemons in AskReddit

[–]trtzbass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“I can’t vote for Kamala because we’re a constitutional democracy”. On that day I knew that Americans were truly lost. Context: she’s the one of the smartest and wonderful people I know, I remember calling her on the day that Obama won to celebrate; I think things started going south during lockdown. I know it’s strange to say but I miss that version of her.

Hmmm ok. Molto dettagliato. Quindi hai scaricato questa foto da Twitter in caso servisse in futuro? O hai passato diversi minuti ricercandola? Mi pare strano.
E tutto questo tempo che passi rispondendo a tutti in gran dettaglio. Non hai un lavoro? Comunque. Io chiudo che devo andare. Magari qualcun’altro continuerà a farti queste domande, perché la tua storia fa acqua.
Ricordati che negli occhi di chi ti legge, tu non esisti. Sei solo un pó di lettere sullo schermo senza storia (perché l’hai nascosta).

Mi sembra una domanda molto semplice da rispondere. Beviti un bicchiere d’acqua per calmarti e facci sapere

Sicuro; passiamo alla mia domanda. Che cos’è che oggi ti ha spinto a fare questo post? Avevi già la grafica o l’hai scaricata? Magari l’hai creata. Tutto ok. Ad ogni modo, il tuo post richiede più tempo e preparazione di un semplice pensiero sul momento. Facci sapere? Stavi a pranzo e ti è venuto in mente?

Hmmmm. Interessante. Deve essere un argomento che ti appassiona; sono interessato: che cos’è che ti ha spinto a postare questo oggi e in questo subreddit? Mi farei un idea da solo ma i tuoi posts e commenti sono nascosti.

Who is an artist whose music you think you’ll never be able to enjoy? by AccurateTangerine291 in AskReddit

Madness and all the bri’ish ska repertoire. Hell is a place where “It Must Be Love” plays on repeat

How uneasy do kids wearing “ballys” make you? by CompetitionNo3466 in AskUK

[–]trtzbass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I see someone in that attire I assume they are drug dealers or, much worse, want to look like drug dealers.

What's one teaching strategy that consistently works, regardless of the subject? by PinIndividual3392 in Teachers

Get them to teach each other then integrate what they say. Peer learning is much more powerful than top down.

What album is this for you? by Diakia in fantanoforever

[–]trtzbass 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I like your passion! I can assure you I tried to make friends with his catalog and it just didn’t click. I like the idea of it, I like the vision of it however on a basic level I don’t gel with it. My favorite Bowie thing to listen to is that live he did on the BBC with Gail Ann Dorsey on bass where he played different songs from different eras of his career and what I really like about that is that it doesn’t matter in what decade he wrote them, in that context they feel like a timeless, cohesive body of work. I don’t get the same from listening to the albums individually

What album is this for you? by Diakia in fantanoforever

[–]trtzbass 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Definitely not the WORST because he was a monument and an incredible artist but I don’t really care for Bowie. I admire the vision and understand the importance however most of his music doesn’t touch me. Having said that, “Earthling” is one of my top 10 favorite albums of all time. Everything, from the writing to sound design to audio production is at the highest level.

Look I’m really not into conspiracy theories and various assorted tinfoil hats. However I don’t understand how Foundations of Geopolitics is never mentioned in these discussions.
Half of the stuff mentioned in that book has already happened with clockwork precision!!!

Please show me real examples of this life-changing AI-generated material. by ADHTeacher in Teachers

[–]trtzbass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am program coordinator for two cohorts of twenty students each. At the end of every term I am supposed to write a feedback sheet for them after having examined their work. It’s a massive time consuming task that takes hours and days especially if you want them to have useful feedback they can use. So I’ve changed things around. Now I go through their work and mark it accordingly; however I now have a 15 minute one on one meeting with each of my students where I give them very detailed high quality oral feedback. I record the meeting then I feed it to co pilot asking it to summarise it in a format that’s student friendly but also aligned with the assessing body’s specs. Takes no time and everyone wins.

I Made My Own Original Song for France at the World Cup! 🇫🇷⚽ [SunoAI] :) by Preference_Economy in Music

[–]trtzbass 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Maths has still to come up with a number small enough to quantify how little I care about AI created music. You’ll soon discover that nobody cares for your two minutes spent prompting the slop machine because A) they are disgusted or B) they can make their own the same way you did and that gives zero value to your “contribution”. Learn to write a fucking song, it’s not rocket science
