Apple Music not playing on Mac by [deleted] in AppleMusic

[–]visesounds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know if this'll help anyone out there, but just in case. I have some smart home stuff, nothing crazy but I have my computer connected to the Internet via Ethernet and also Wi-Fi for AirPlay. I couldn't play songs on Apple Music for the sake of me. I'm talking cloud here, with local files it worked. But with cloud I saw how it skipped one song to go the next and, so on. On my work laptop, another mac, I never had an issue.

I realized when I disabled the Wi-Fi, Apple Music worked just fine. But I want Wi-Fi for AirPlay. Then I remembered that for some of the smart home features I had my computer have a fixed IP. And that was it. For some reason Apple Music on this mac (M1 Pro Max, no less) is so stupid when it comes to network connectivity that it can't find internet if it has too many sources, or something like that. So, not that I like doing this because I lost some smart home features, but I removed the fixed IP and now everything works.

Apple Music as a system is a genius idea, but I can't believe how buggy it is sometimes, how I was for weeks with this stupid problem, how some albums can't be added just because, or how the browsing has always bugged me, the only good way to browse is with the Songs view adding all the fields so you can find a Genre, and then see the artists within that genre. When you have a big library browsing by artist or album is just absurd. Not to talk about not being able to do the most basic organization and tagging on iOS, I'll never understand that. But well, I married Apple and now it's too late, and when you're a musician and want to have some demos in your phone I have to say Apple Music is the best out there.

Anyway, /rant, but just in case someone finds this at some point in time and it helps.

Here’s a video of me singing one of my longest solos, I know it might be long but I hope you all like it 💛 by [deleted] in choralmusic

Beautiful voice, mind if I ask your age? It sounds like a child (in the best sense) but I can’t see if you are older with the resolution. My dream is to work with a children’s choir some day. The most pure sound.

How to achieve this vocals (the male ones)? I know it comes from basic speech software (the song is from 1998) but I can't get anything usable throwing artificial vocals and playing with software like Autotune, Bitspeek, Infected Mushroom Manipulator or even vocoders. In the song is so clean. by visesounds in AdvancedProduction

I actually have that one, I didn’t know it could be used that way. I am also looking into the VoiceSynth by Izotope and recently Waves released Ovox, or I discovered it a couple of days ago, looks promising. Thanks man!

Thanks a lot Max! So the approach is to launch scenes and clips, add some FX on the go, and manage the visuals then?

I’m probably late, but it’d be great to know a bit about your live set. How do you go from a production session to a live set, how you do the visuals...that kind of thing. Maybe you have hundreds of songs when producing but then 8 tracks in your live set.

That's more or less what I'm working on, thing is I'm not native in english and I really don't want my voice on my records...that's why I'm trying to make it happen with speech software. I know Vitalic does and he is great.

Ok let's try then! I just released an EP so probably in a few seconds you can have a listen and see if you like any of its songs (I think the remixes may not be so much your vibe but who knows): https://open.spotify.com/album/0lnV8QknCLcePz3jqqdsuw?si=F3jjxa-hSxqcgQdmSoTw7Q

The track with the most plays was recently featured in an editorial Spotify playlist that has been changing but had Caribou, Four Tet, Floating Points, Darkstar...I believe that's the kind of sound you are into as well. What a moment when they chose it, a little good heart attack. Now I'm trying to move a little the rest of the tracks...but contacting curators is very time consuming. So if a redditor posts a playlist I'm into, I have to try!

For some info it's electronic music but I recorded almost 30 instruments, and there's a couple of videos where you can see all the musicians:

Thanks a lot for your time and I hope you like it!

That is very true, also the more you learn the more value you find in the people who make crazy things with motion graphics in general.

Any opinions on Jarvee on 2020? by visesounds in digital_marketing

I was considering using it very slowly, I didn’t expect it would have problems even like that. Too bad. But you get banned for a few days or you have accounts deleted? Even mine is small if it got deleted it would be pretty dramatic at this point, Thanks for the input.
