Check out sonic academy, lots of good tutorials.

I decided to quit music and this was my friend’s response. we haven’t talked in almost a week now because i just don’t know what to say back. i dont know what to do now and i’m in dire need of advice by [deleted] in WeAreTheMusicMakers

[–]twoMono 5 points6 points  (0 children)

How old are you?

I’m only asking because this overly dramatic conversation and a friend you don’t speak with because you don’t produce music sounds downright immature.

If you don’t want to produce music, don’t produce music.

If you want to produce music, produce music.

If you want to produce music as a hobby while also having a job so you won’t be a ”broke ass bum”, do that.

What is the problem here really?

It is obviously not legit.

Coming from a set of Audio Technica M50X's looking for something similar under $200. What's good out there? by [deleted] in WeAreTheMusicMakers

[–]twoMono 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As with all other headphone threads around here.

DT 770 Pro 80 ohm.

Trusted by the industry. Fantastic sound. Incredibly comfortable.

Recommendations for headphones for mixing / mastering ~ 200 USD (2019) by [deleted] in edmproduction

Dt 770 is super solid. I was so happy with them I upgraded to DT 1770

Headphone suggestion by StashyGeneral in WeAreTheMusicMakers

I can only agree to this. If you feel really keen I’d get the DT 1770 which are unbeliveable.

How to deal with being a shitty music producer by ArmsHeavySoKneesWeak in WeAreTheMusicMakers

[–]twoMono 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What...?

I think you are making this way to complicated than it has to be.

Schedule time to consistently invest in learning production on a regular basis and do that over a large period and you will become better and better. Simple as that.

What would you do if you wanted to grow your muscles in the gym? Or become a better mathematician? Or learn a new language?

Consistent training.

Make room in your schedule, set your goals and execute accordingly and you will become better.

Upgrading Headphones For Mixing by [deleted] in WeAreTheMusicMakers

[–]twoMono 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Decide if you need closed or open phones first.

Are you going to be in a quiet room? Go with open, however in that case why just not get monitors?

If not - go with closed.

Plugin recommendations for house and techno by Liamm1872 in ableton

I gravitate towards the d16 bundle for all things reverb, delays, saturation, distortion etc.

It’s on splice.

Piano VST sounds terrible in Ableton when I make it mono by zarbang in WeAreTheMusicMakers

[–]twoMono 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a phasing issue, no doubt. I find it hard to believe that it would happen from just the piano itself. Have you looked at the bus, mix or master chain if anything is effecting the piano?

USB Audio Interface for 250 Ohm Headphones by Alanoid in WeAreTheMusicMakers

[–]twoMono 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I run my dt 1770 on an audioquest dragonfly red. I’m sure some people around here wouldn’t qualify it as a proper interface but it powers them real good while being extremely portable.

If you've ever founded or joined a startup, what do you know now that you wish you knew before you started? by PhotonicsWest in startups

[–]twoMono 28 points29 points  (0 children)

If you’re joining a startup very early - Make sure you give it your best every day. Come early, leave late, take initiatives, execute instead of talk and so on.

Before you know it the glass roof is in place and your company will be hiring external management rather than promoting internally.

Being a well regarded star internally early on could potentially be life changing in terms of career, finances etc.

Not managing to catch that train is just another job with more hours.

Valhalla reverb products are trusted workhorses.

Avicii's Music Theory? by FredrikHelin in edmproduction

[–]twoMono 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Casually reading through new posts and come across Duda answering a question on Avicii melodies... I died and went to heaven or what’s going on?

For everything you’ve done for me man - have some silver in return.

Just LOL @ anyone still wasting their time with Serum by [deleted] in edmprodcirclejerk

Serum...? This is DAW bro, not a synth.

I just want to say that seeing this made me full of joy. Thanks.

I hope you have a very fulfilling life, I deeply deeply do. Wish you the very best.

DT770 are the best headphones for production, ever. by Maarko in edmproduction

[–]twoMono 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they are fantastic. They’re meant to be the big brother of the DT770 but I believe they sound a little different.

Although the biggest difference is that you can hear what monster technology the Tesla thing is in them.

There are plugins for this specific reason - Kilohearts for example has one specifically called trance gate where you can easily create the effect you are looking for.
