    Pro Tools Problems

    I recommend getting a more advanced wave editor like Spark or Peak that can analyse tempo more accurately than LE. Exact beat matching occurs using a tempo analysis and stretch that is much more intuitive than LE, and more powerful. Sincerely, God

    How Risky Is Paying Dues???

    Mr Messenger: I am telling you to try to get involved as an intern, or a runner, for a studio. The studio that I posted, are Sony Music Studios located in Sydney. Perhaps you live in Perth, I'm sure there are decent studios there as well. However, the point is, I am not asking you to go to...

    full, orchestral string sound....

    Good sample CDs, like Gigastudio Orchestracubes go for 400 Euro or more. The sample banks I utilise are from such sample libraries or synthesisers. Concentrate on the placement of samples you have already, and place them in the stated stereo field I have outlined. You will be surprised at...

    How Risky Is Paying Dues???

    Don't take this the wrong way. Continue playing tennis, especially if you achieved a No. 10 ranking in your country. Obviously, you are good at that. With fame from tennis you could use your connections to delve into hiphop at a later date. There are a lot of people who spend all their...

    full, orchestral string sound....

    Vitaminman: You indeed are barking up the wrong tree. I have never said to play the same patch, at the same octave doubled up. You obviously are not understanding me, or I have had a problem in relaying my communique to you. It is different instances of the same patch played at different...

    full, orchestral string sound....

    The reference number (14) violins is simply the number of violins in a philarmonic orchestra. Perhaps that became confusing. It is simply reference. I should have made it more clear. You do NOT open 14 instances of the same patch for the violin sound, which I stated was "Bright String" in...

    yo i need help with drums...

    Make sure to layer snares and kick drums for a fatter sound. Try an analogue kick from say, a jazz kit, then fatten it with a 909 kick. Throw more layers until you are satisfied. Do the same for snares.

    full, orchestral string sound....

    STRING PLACEMENT I'll extrapolate. Maybe this will help even more: The number next to the instrument indicates how many of that instrument is in a philarmonic orchestra. I have given you sample patch names that usually are layered to achieve this effect. Bullet line indicates no...

    Pro Tools: Do you need the hardware?

    Only Protools free works without the hardware its designed to utilise. Without the hardware interface a la Mbox, Digi002, HD, etc., ProTools software will not be functional in an industrious way. Protools Free is an 8 track audio sequencer and is considered to obviously be a trivial joke...

    Korg Keyboards

    In many professional studios, the Korg Triton is simply there because it has invaded the market so well. Furthermore, I see some individuals bring in their Triton Studio and use only several of their "favourite" sounds. Among many people, the Triton is a status symbol. The more expensive the...

    Self Containment

    Well there is a way, however it is basic, and illegal. I advise against doing so. In the attainment of a Refill sound for use, the quickest method is to sample the Refill sound rather than cracking any proprietary code Propellerhead has installed on their specific files. Then the sample of...

    Will the Neptunes' new CD be the dawn of producer oriented records?

    Yeah, I know that there have been "producer oriented" type records out there, like Dr. Dre The Chronic, and some others. It seems to me that this will be a "producer compilation," album. When I saw the cover of the new Neptunes CD, it made sure to show the Neptunes as the "artist" with Jay-Z...

    Starting a production company

    I AM NOT A LAWYER, THIS IS NOT LEGAL ADVICE. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS CONSULT A CERTIFIED ATTORNEY. Do you want a production company to make music for other people, or do you want to develop and guide artists, hoping to shop them to a major? If you want to just make beats, copyright laws...

    Neptunes Biting Kid From Canada!!!!

    This happens all the time. The kid can't sue because he doesn't have enough money, the Neptunes know that, and they go ahead with life while the kid whithers away from the spotlight. If they thought he was talented, they could have given the kid a break in the music industry, just like...

    Where do we go from here?

    We should recognise that the UK, Benelux, Germany, the rest of continental Europe, have different markets and somewhat different tastes that don't necessarily transcend boundaries. From what I've heard, I personally think from a sonic perspective, Europe is more accepting of different forms of...

    Where do we go from here?

    Ominous: There are several different levels of analysing this situation. It comes from a creative standpoint, as well as a business standpoint. Looking at these two subjects can really open a further discussion regarding the stance of hip-hop music today. Creativity From personal...

    Where do I go from here?

    Soulja: I'll try to give you a list that will minimise any utilisation of unnecessary ancillary production programmes. But, let's look at your MPC 4000, because it is an extremely powerful The MPC 4000 has an 80GB drive, a depth of 24 bit recording, a capability of 96kHz sampling rate (I...

    album recording

    Cubase SX lets you record audio. Why would you not use that? Perhaps I don't properly understand your question??? If you say you use Cubase SX for MIDI, why wouldn't you record audio into Cubase SX as well (if you own it)? It doesn't make sense. The MBOX is hyped far too much.

    Has Anyone try'd Taking Advantage of Making Their Own Multiband EQ Yet???

    Duecemade Ent: OK, here's the answer, bear with me. Frequency is measured in hertz (Hz) and 1000 Hz = 1kHz (kilohertz.) In this case I am discussing Hz in regards to a multi-band dynamic EQ, which usually is a feature in a split band compressor, but is also used separately for better...
