Re: [IDK] none of us
I liked it. Even though there was no strong melody I could discern, the piece certainly communicates a mood and there’s lots of nice variation. Congrats on finishing it!

Re: (electronic rock, synthwave, krautrock) "Dance on the lights of Mars"
The truth is that I have been making musical songs for 30 years... I humbly believe that you have not fully understood the musical philosophy of this track. However, you are right that the theme can give more of itself, and before sending it to production I am working on an extended version that wi...

Re: (Synthwave/House) Instrumental "Synthwave Cybertruck"
To my ears the track seems kind of “unglued” meaning that it seemed like a bunch of independent tracks playing along at the same tempo? And there was no strong chorus to return to after the bridge. The track kept chugging along until the end when it unceremoniously ends. There’s a cool car revving s...

Re: (electronic rock, synthwave, krautrock) "Dance on the lights of Mars"
Great authentic sounds, but the arrangement could use some work. The melody isn’t very hooky. Kraftwerk had such a great ability to come up with a simple yet distinctive melody, I’m guessing this might have been your first stab at the melody ? If so, then perhaps try humming along to the backing tra...

Re: Synthwave Dr. OctoRex drum refill?
Thanks for these pointers.
@mimidancer. Thanks, but I’m overflowing with samples
@arpeg: cool, I’ll check those out.
@jfrichards: that looks interesting. I’ve been exploring beatmap to try and get some interesting kick, snare, hi-hat combos. I’ll try your suggestions out.

Re: Synthwave Dr. OctoRex drum refill?
Yeah, so it’s really not adding anything new sadly. Surprised that this has not been created.
There’s probably something I can use in Vintage Vault.

Re: Synthwave Dr. OctoRex drum refill?
I find the stock drums (even Loop Supply) to be very limited in variety, basically it all seems to be oriented to a particular kind of music (even the Pop collection is basically the same). Synthwave didn't exist back when Propellerhead put together those drums and loops. I think it was 1974 but I ...

Re: Synthwave Dr. OctoRex drum refill?
Loops or sounds? The most used drumsounds in synthwave are from the obvious drummachines, like the LinDrum, TR-707 and Oberheim's DMX. All are available as RE emulations. The drum-loops in synthwave are rather basic four to the floor kick/snare patterns with 16th hihats on top. You can get ALL the ...

Re: The best ways to learn Mixing and Mastering
I couldn't get the hang of mixing until I finally decided to take a dedicated online course.

Re: Move tracks with blocks from one reason project to another
You have the option to right click on a block/multiple blocks and select 'Convert Block Clips to Song Clips' which put all the data back in the standard sequencer or you can copy the blocks from one track to another without too much fuss. As far as the best way to approach it, that's up to you. You...

Move tracks with blocks from one reason project to another
Note: I'm sure this has been asked before so I'm sorry for the likely duplicate! This weekend I went back to an old project that I really like but never finished and moved it over to my new template in order to get it better organized so that I can work on completing it. I managed it, but I won't sa...

Re: YouTube | For the First Time, I'm SCARED of A.I. as a Music Producer
Muzak producers are definitely toast. In some ways I could imagine this boosting the live music scene. Nobody’s going to go to a club to listen to an AI. And yes AI cannot digest its own output, it quickly drives it mad, which is great because it means all AI generated content will need to be clearl...

Re: (Darkwave x Synthwave) feat. mimidancer "SKYNET TECH"
I'm liking it, though I think it's missing a riser or something to introduce the main groove, the transition is very abrupt. Could be a drum fill instead of a riser, but something to say "Get ready!". The synth lead sticks around too long in the darkwave section. We need a break :) And I guess I wou...

Re: Controller mod wheel rubber degrading
If it's just sticky try warm soapy water. Then try sticky label remover. Then, if you are feeling brave, try a solvent like acetone. I've had success with all these methods in the past. If it is falling apart contact Novation. They can supply common spares for their stuff and sometimes for really o...

Controller mod wheel rubber degrading
This seems to happen to a lot of softer rubbers (elastomers?) in my experience, the texture starts to get a bit sticky and eventually starts falling apart. I'm very happy with the controller so replacing it just to deal with a failing mod wheel seems bad. But I imagine trying to fix it is pretty poi...
