2. You shouldn't be so sure! But I know I will cringe at my early tracks (including ones made now). I am a new producer, only since november. I will not stop Speedcore though. Or at least I won't stop core genres. Maybe I would move on to Hardcore

>>694863837
Use Renoise instead of FL Studio so you can chop samples and it's more flexible.
Or remember to NEVER use FL Studio's default samples/presets because it ruins the tracks.

>>694864327
I never use FLs default samples. Only exception is when I use crashes, claps, stuff like this.
But even then I add effects to them.

And, I need a daw that has a triple oscillator. This is how I make very many things

how does it feel to play other peoples samples using a program that u didnt make.

>>694865234
How often is it that producers make their own daw? Never. Kill yourself.

>>694865234
Heres the thing, I don't.
As said, only for stuff like claps and crashes, and I EQ them (and other effects) to make them sound a bit different.
Also, it doesn't matter if I didn't make the program, they sold it to music producers so they can make music.

Ever heard of a thing called synthesis? You're talking shit, go research. OP might be a lazy underage b8nd faggot that doesn't do it, but that does not apply to all electronic musicians.

>>694866590
I do do it, at a basic level for now though. I make my own sounds from 3xOsc and Sawer, and not presets

>>694865578
What would be the point of making the DAW? How would that affect the production method or the final result? You can make the exact same music in any DAW and it will sound the same. You're talking out of your ass and barely understand what a DAW is. What makes things sound different are the plugins, and the ones any serious producer will use have so many possibilities of customization, allowing sound to be literally built from scratch.

>>694867275
Use Sytrus or Harmor instead.

Sytrus is rubbish. It's made so newfags listen to the presets and think 'wow, these are banger tunes themselves'.
Take a look at Fm8, if want to spend big buck.
Or free options by TAL (wonderfull stuff), also Helm, or Tyrell are all amazIng and rational synths. Sytrus should be called circus, cause its just for show.

>>694868921
OSC here again, listening to your Splitterponies track. Your mix is incredibly quiet, try balancing the levels of everything, and dropping some master compression on the mix.

Ever used Maximus?

>>694868921
Until you get anything else, you're better off with 3xOsc than Sytrus. It's just that it's really small, with fuck all possibilites, but you can learn a lot from it. Focus on one synth, either this or one of those I recommended, and learn it inside out. Don't think using higher tech (wether real or apparent) will make necessarily better music. And read about the science, or at least watch vids.

I understand you probably meant to respond to >>694869342, and I told him to use a multiband compressor on his final mix, because it's fucking Speedcore / Aggrotech. There's no fucking mixing to be done you idiot, it's just brickwall limiting, and that's the desired aesthetic.

He just needs to pump the gains and that's it, it would benefit greatly from a compressor. Shut the fuck up with your ritualistic puritan approach to mixing in production.

Putting two sounds together is called mixing, kid. No matter how chaotic you want to sound.
Less compression = more transients = more aggressive (in general).
Multiband compressor for brickwalling is not even a joke.
Seriously, study more. You don't seem to even understand what compression really is.

When I said 'brickwalling,' I was being ironic in jest of the genre in question. You're a bit too much of a tight-ass. Enjoy the 2 years in music college that your parents paid for, because after that the only mixing you're gonna be doing is stirring cans of soup in your dumpster cardboard lean-to.

Enjoying watching anons getting all riled up and arguing.

If any of them had any talent, they'd be making music, instead of screaming and yelling with each other!

>>694871785

And absolutely not. The effect of more transients is *dynamics.* The effect of *perceived distortion* is more aggressive.

What the fuck do you think an overdrive or bitcrusher typically does with a signal?

When you crush the audio, and you're seeking a crushed sound, it doesn't matter whether you have a 70:1 SNR, unless you're intentionally going for hard-hitting loudness in dynamic.

The filthiest distortion does not necessarily depend on transients.
You can't apply your indie post-hard world magmapop bananacore production knowledge to everything, dickshit.

Distortion = enriched harmonic content. With less dynamics our ears perceive less of the distortion, because there's less variation in the body of the sound and so our brain is not as drawn to it.
If a person makes music with bad understanding of what they're doing, the reason is laziness, not artistic intention.
There's plenty of really agressive or chaotic music done by knowleadgeable individuals.
Listen to Surgeon, Paula Temple, Orphx. Or Noisia, Venetian Snares, Break..

dynamics between the harmonics, yes! not overall dynamics between bands and noise threshold.

nobody here is going to crush the signal, followed by surgical equalization and multiband compression, beyond doing what they perceive is well.

like i said before, the application of your knowledge here is suited for recordings and mastering, not for mixing a fully-distorted track.

as a signal approaches noise, the goal moves away from composing frequencies with as little noise as possible, and rather to make it barely possible to distinguish between frequencies. aggrotech is somewhat meant to be brickwalled, like many modern noise-influenced endeavors. since it's chock-full of distortion, it is *truly not concerned* with enriched harmonic content of a mix.

rather it is dependent upon the harmonic complexity of the distortion itself, and this does not necessitate dynamics between voices.

as one approaches noise composition, you become inherently more and more pretentious in the methodology used to achieve it.

4"33' is an example of the lack of procedure in application towards composition, in order to make an impact -- a friendly tip of the fedora to noise-influenced sub-culture.

if you don't understand what i'm getting at, you've been watching to many sound engineering tutorials lately.

There were too many improvements over the previous versions for me not to upgrade. The only thing that bothers me is that they removed plugins' "Do not allow keyboard focus" persistence. I used to be able to play and adjust parameters at the same time, and now no fix (option selected, non-bridged, no driver auto close) will allow me to maintain that workflow. Also, the piano roll has some weird mouse offset when adding notes.

It's my own damn fault for not investing in hardware.

Don't do it, i don't know what style your aiming for but once you have a goal focus on it, play around with sounds don't limit yourself. Most software is pretty straight forward as well, just practice and experience keep it simple and progress from there, experiment listen to other people's tunes keep up the tutorials., Its not worth your money to pay some guy to tell you how to do something you can easily learn yourself.

It's not a matter of watching sound tutorials and repeating what they recommend as gospel. It's about understanding what is really going on and so being unable to enter a real of fantasy, as you are.
What you wrote last is practically impossible to understand, as terminology is all screwed up, so your intention basically gets lost in confusion
All I can say and you can do as you please with it, is try to really unserstand what compression is, and how it works. Using it sparingly leads to more agressive sound than just making it bounce in a way that placebo effect made you believe was harder at that time.
And for fuck sake, don't put it on your master, ever, unless you've learned to master a track which is a total different thing to producing and mixing.

I started hearing your tracks. Good stuff, mate

>>694877764
I know what it does. It's a vst / sound library

Jesus guys... where to begin. Basic rules of production.
Polish a turd, it's still a turd.
Stay away from boosting frequencies unless you have the proper tools to do so.
Eq everything.
Remove sub from anything that isnt sub or kick.
High end is overrated. Trust me.
Deess your vocals always.
Eq after distortion, saturation, overdrive, ect.
Reverb before compression
Delay before reverb
Use way less reverb than you think you need
Bus (group) your like sounds together. Drums, leads, sunths, vox, efx, ect...
Compress your busses with some type of "glu compression and enable soft clip if the feature is available.
Give yourself anywhere between -4 to -6 db headroom in the mixdown. This is the ideal range for mastering compression and maximizing.
Also, there is a difference in what is felt and what is heard.
....did i forget anything?

If I had to take a guess, he had a single stock sound bank and thought, yep, kontakt is a shitty SYNTH.

kek.

Kontakt is more of a very articulate and adjustable sample player, I use it all the time for acoustic instruments, and electric guitar.

>>694877955
With hundreds of synths, instruments and massive libraries of samples. And you say you can eq something to get all of the sounds that Kontakt can do? Try again.

>>694877955
Kontakt's more of a sound library player, shit's literally infinite.

YES I understand how compression works you fucking dolt! But you aren't going to win the fucking loudness war by perfectly balancing all your tracks and preserving their dynamics. Chances are, if you are using a digital instrument, it's not as dynamic as it could be manipulated to be, but the same cannot necessarily be said of analog instruments! Ever heard of an expander? It's a compression function. That is the effect we are going for, the type of music that we are discussing, and the extreme to which we are taking it.

I dont use FL Studio, I use Audacity for editing and just arrange samples and field recordings on my own. LMMS Usually to play off effects and samples, but past that I only use it to generate sounds, not arrange things.

>>694858287
OP, one good mastering tip if you haven't tried it is to use the soundgoodizer plugin on your master bus. Most of the FL pros use that and it comes with the stock program.

Sorry, my mistake.

What I mean is, you just don't need it. You could make the same sounds basically, definitely not all of them, but the sounds you could make. Just it'd be more complicated.

>>694876309
There is a point now where I need knowledge from a professional. My goal is to sound like the pros.
>>694878051
This is why I want to hire a pro. I don't want mediocre productions. I already know almost everything here but I don't see how I could push further without the help of a pro. You pay teachers in any other field, music production is not an exception.

>>694878383
I've been advised to not use Soundgoodizer

Where'd you hear that?

They're basically mastering presets is all, it doesn't invalidate it wholely as a tool.

Here's a tip, if it makes it sound better, fuck what anyone has to say about it, it sounds better, end of discussion.

>>694858287
Oooo aaaah a music producer, how exciti g

>>694878710
Only noobs and poseurs think you can't achieve high quality sound with FL.

>>694878476
Sorry mate, you're still not even slightly getting it. Rather than fiddling around with cracked software for 5 minutes and calling yourself a producer, perhaps go learn from someone who actually knows what they're talking about and actually learn your tools properly before going on. No one working commercially will take you seriously until then.

>>694858287
wanna collab?

>>694878790
Soundgoodizer is a compressor is what I'm saying, you can find the same presets in the multiband compressor from image line, presets A-D.

>>694878974
oh right, it's called maximus, the vst.

>>694878856
I have learned it and I learned it from someone who knows what they're talking about. I don't use Kontakt, no problem with this. Sorry for misunderstanding the plugin. Also, I 'fiddle" with this software for longer than 5 minutes, and if you have a producer name, have made albums, etc. you are producer.

>>694878897
Sure

>>694878383
Soundgoodizer on the master should be post production.

You should also be using maximus, it's more or less the exact same thing with more options.

>>694879055
Do you produce using Audacity?

>>694878540
Don't listen to them. Soundgoodizer's one of the best affordable mastering preset plugins.

>>694878323
>>694877016
In a perfect world, everyone would mix tracks at -15 dB or less for extreme amounts of headroom. It's not a problem of how audio is handled and perceived, it's a problem of how society has trained itself to listen to it.

>>694879418
EQ and compression are two different things entirely, but yeah, it doesn't provide as much control as maximus itself which is what it's based off of.

>>694880249
For real, FL is for beginners but get so used to it it becomes there favourite but if anyone is familiar with any DAWs ableton is a must get great production and free updates on majorly good packs.

>>694858287
If you're an actual producer, why are you still using the Fisher Price toy of producing (fruity loops) instead of actual hardware?

>>694881183
Depending on the style you make, you don't need hardware, and you don't need pro tools. Poseur noob.

>>694881402
You no nothing either then if you think you're right.
" you dont need hardware " " dont need pro tools"
Shhh no one gives a fuck just use what you want to use most of us are bedroom wanna be producers anyway, why argue over the best DAWs? my favourite is Ableton but i dont flare up when some fucker says its not their personal preference.

>>694880568
Get any classical music piece make it into a midi or whatever the fuck bump up the tempo or if you're lazy just pitch it up to around +3+4

>>694880996
I could use any other DAW, but FL is more popular and it was the only one I understood when I was little (I also downloaded LMMS, Reason and Cubase) but I'm sure if I use Ableton or Logic (or another DAW), my tracks would have more quality

>>694881918
Yeah they would have more quality because you adapt and find new things. FLs not my favourite but i spent a good year on it learning it because im not ignorant to something i love doing as a tie passer. I found cubase hard as fuck i first tried it at 11 and spent a good 2 years still puzzled by many of the features, you just take to some.

>>694882292
Well, the competition limited you to only a sample pack they made, I couldn't make my own sounds, so :D

>>694882281
Theres a way people can like it. This is a genre of music, people like it. People like fucking Harsh Noise, so this is not a problem for people to like.
Stop being close minded, they like it, they like it.

And not samefagging

Way too much reliance on synthetic or premade samples, you guys should go out and grab some of your own recordings of samples, mess with them and just fuck around. Theres no sense of exploration with alot of this soundcloud shit, its all just either generic EDM/Hip Hop, or halfassed Noise/Ambient.
