http://soundcloud.com/twoinches/poisonmehappy this is very improv style, not so structured as my later works will show but one hell of a experience. I went under the name Poison Me Happy back then. I will upload more tracks to my soundclick when I get home from work. I am a Noise artist, enjoy. | ||

Great book that has everything you need to know about house production styles. Also consider buying samples off of Goldbaby. I prefer using original drum samples and then compressing them ad hoc with different compressors. Great site for all your classic drum machine needs. http://www.goldbaby.co.nz/ I'm gonna make a house/disco club for this forum. Did it at overclock.net but it failed miserably. I use Ableton and Reaktor 5, which has a wealth of user created instruments and effects. Like to work on french house, ambient, downtempo, and instrumental stuff. Haven't released anything yet though. Here are some of my influences: Nightmares on Wax Curtis Mayfield Boozoo Bajou Lemon Jelly The Avalanches The Bird Ensemble Fennesz Sakamoto Solo Andata Beef Terminal Nybbl Holoscene Broken Social Scene Apostle of Hustle (Early) Badly Drawn Boy Hammock Brian Eno Windy and Carl Stars of the Lid Loscil Ad Bicycle | ||

Looking for an LFO that I can plug into any VST. I think max for live should be able to do this, but I'm a noob @ max. I want to modulate paramaters in operator, and only frequency and 1 other option isn't enough. Also lets drop cool tips here. Try hard panning one channel left and one channel right then slightly detuneing them. Try using simple delay with less than 30ms difference between right and left. It makes a sound much more full. (For example 1ms delay on right channel and 16ms delay on the left.) | ||

You run a compressor with lots of threshold on an aux bus and mix it into the main bus. Most producers will use this for full drum rack compression, but it also works really well for single kick drum compression. You can get that big sound without losing too much detail. | ||

Ive tried downloading FL and trying simple tutorials to get going but since I dont understand even the simplest of things and having demo or (admittedly) illegal software is uninspiring. Seems like to do anything you need some basic equipment like a MIDI controller (I learned what that is yesterday, yea!). Im too old and impatient to do it the hard way like eJay or playing with demos until I learn it the something from where I could build on. I dont mind paying a bit more so I can enjoy the learning process. Id like to do electronic dance/trance and remixes. Ive been considering buying -Ableton Live Intro (like Ableton more than FL) -Novation ReMote 25 SL MK II (I can get this one used for a significant price reduction) -Novation LaunchPad since it looks like an absolute blast but Ill probably hold it off for a while since it not really needed ![]() Would this make any sense? Are these good? Presuming I have nothing but a basic PC, do I need to have anything else? The 25 SL just connects through USB, right? Live Intro is significantly cheaper but also obviously has less features but does it still enable me to do, say 90% of stuff that is done normally? On top of that, any guides, tutorials etc. that start with most basic stuff? Does not need to be free, but not more than $50 either. Im not sure if Tom Cosms tutorials start a bit too advanced? Any links to quality stuff (I have gone throught the links in this thread already)? Sorry for possibly horrible noobish questions... | ||

Yea, Tom Cosmos would be a little advanced for a beginner. He's a good teacher, even though I don't like his music. If you think you want to DJ, Ableton is the best buy. You get all the production tools you need and innerstatedj can help you get started. http://www.musicsoftwaretraining.com/blog/ He's a great teacher and a cool dude. I've personally talked with him and he's very helpful. Any of the Novation series will be good. For trance type stuff you definitely want a keyboard. Go for one of the keyboard/midi launch units. M-Audio makes great controllers as well. Just start messing around. That's the best advice I can give you. You'll find production is about 20% knowledge and 80% twisting knobs. You could mathmatically determine all your EQ settings, Compressor thresholds, etc. but in the end, it's just moving knobs around. Work on getting ideas down and saved. Then worry about how it sounds later. | ||
