This is Music Production. A place to share anything and everything you want about your music making journey! Learning is the goal, so discussion is encouraged!
RIP Waveform.
Rules are as follows:
- Don't share other people's music without commentary, analysis or questions. This is not a music discovery community.
- No elitism or bigotry towards other people's music tastes. Be polite in disagreement.
I will update rules as necessary, but I promise we'll stay light on them and only add new ones after discussion!
Here are some useful examples of what a great post would be about:
(in no particular order)
- Stuff you made/are making. Get valuable feedback and criticism!
- Learning resources - videos, articles, posts on any topic concerning a production process, be it composition, sound design, sampling, mixing, mastering, DAW workflow or any other.
- Free plugins, presets and samplepacks. Giveaways and self-made stuff included!
- News about production software, releases and personalities.
- Questions and general advice about music production.
- Essays on your favorite productions. Inspirations and insights!
- Your physical analog gear! Let us know how it performs!
Good to know: As a general word of caution, avoid posting complete compositions, mixes and tracks on the internet before backing them up on a remote and reputable server. Even small snippets or watermarked tracks should be posted AFTER backing it up to cloud. Timestamps from cloud services will help you in case of theft. And, as a public resource, lemmy is not a safe place to post your unpublished work, so please make sure your work is protected.

yay!
totally up to you how we do it
i will start something and send it to u; or u can start something and send it; anyway time to make music! will send u what i make unless i check back and u were like 'no'
yeah that sounds good, I'm still at work for a few more hours but I should be able to add something to what you've got when I get home :)
how do you wanna go about sending it?
idk where yet but i'll put it somewhere online where you can just download it without logging in to anything and then message you a link.
sounds good!
ok i got to a good stopping point where all the stuff in the song feels solid. Now transfering the wav to this phone then internet somewhere.
Sent what I have so far. I could still tune up some instruments and volumes if they need it but this sounds like a good start at least. I love the 'coolness' of it. It feels like a beginning of a song (first 3 measures). maybe could get more epic? bpm 187.
curious what u do to it!
ooo this is tight. I know where I wanna take it.
are you able to split stems off? I want the drums at least to not have a jarring switch of the drum samples a minute into it.
the song is this what do u mean stem? mea noob
oh stems are the tracks separated into different files, usually what people use for a remix.
I'm just looking for the drum track on its own to use the same samples as you
clickyellow could pass it to you next or i'd make something different with u or anything. Im down for anything. more the merrier imo
I'm down to collab/remix/whatever.
But I don't really have any finished tracks. Mostly a lot of abandoned sound design sessions lol. If you have anything I could try to remix that would be cool.
brb probably tonight or tomorrow :)
making something this morning. Curious what 'Sound Design Session' is; like you customize custom samples?
Sorry for the late reply.
It depends on the day. I really like synthesizers but I do like to bounce and resample whatever I'm doing over and over. And recently I like throwing the result in Amigo and or sometimes just a break, and modulate from there.
I should post more. Skip through this.
Bitwig as a DAW is itself a modular synth, so I can get lost in that pretty easily. Here's a recent bounce.
Its all pretty directionless lol but it makes great material for chopping.
looked at your community where you post your music stuff and i like your resampling: i think it can synergize nicely with me. My weakness is often predictable noninteresting drums. Want to do a resampling like in your post 'never stop resampling'? i believe i can add coolness to something like that. Then i would send it back and you could resample it more or we could figure out what to do from there :)
nice. looks fun for collab. I wanted to release a song and its been weeks and still pending on routenote. Seeing your stuff id love to collab right nao tho but another issue is puppies destroyed my headphones. getting new headphones asap.
i did make one thing with the intent to collab it right after u first replied while still having headphones. probably sounds decent. im going to take a look at it and then should i send it? i consider it far from done but its a story song and the story is there. It has like riddic or dune epic space drama energy.
cant edit anything u send me yet so getting headphones asap
brb making description of song
Ok say if this interests you.
Starts with a synth for Main Character and Space Drudgery.
And after two, I guess they are big measures, TEH NIGHTLING HORDS. or chords. Anyway, NIGHTLINGS! whatever they are. I'm thinking exotic space conquerors of which the Necromongers from chronicles of riddick are most similar.
Then teh main character returns and does their normal chillaxin. But what dis weird stuff? Nightlings? And then broken weird transition measure. Adventure goes on pause replaced by Nightling craziness. Eventually main character becomes nightling superleader like riddick or dune. Adventure returns and supporting cast returns.
And then cuz its lame when stories end b4 showing the empire after the conflict, I placed a nice long epilogue of all teh instruments getting more confident and bosser and, at teh end, Space Drudgery again xcept now it's a pretty thing instead of monotonous and repetitive. Thus evolution of space.
There is more if scrolled down but unimportant.
will msg the file.
i cant tell without headphones if i got it to a shareable state but i believe i did. Want to collab this one? maybe you do stuff to it while i get headphones in like 4 days from nao?
sent. sorry tooka while. on solar and its a week of solid snow; so unusual electric problems
i think i know what youre talking about and fixed it but phone 1% gtG!
What kind of music do you make?
its a surprise lol. i dont do vocals myself tho
