    Using Hercules DJ Console MK2 with FL

    in Music Composition & Production

    Posted

    Hey guys,

    I just figured, i got this thing, why not use it with FL? Since it sucks for the thing it's meant to be used. Especially if you have the REAL stuff.

    So, i hooked it up to my compy and tadah! it works in FL. Question for you guys: What would you automate with it? I'm curious, since i'm only using it to automate volume levels and such. It has alot of neat buttons on there to experiment with.

    Oh and btw, it might be a nice idea to start a "General Midi controllers FAQ" topic? I'm not starting it since i don't have the knowledge most of you guys do.

    Thanks in advance!

    Grumpy, aren't we?

    I can see if this was being neglected by the directors, but it seems that there's no interest right now.

    Well i think people who actually did some work on this project are being ignored and unrewarded for their efforts. Especially as you can see the projectleaders being VERY active on this forum, except on the project they should be running... See my frustration? By the way, contacting them direcly doesn't seem to work very well. So perhaps saying stuff like this on the public boards might get something running.

    Great to hear you like my Elle piece HoboKa. Mind you, it got rejected already, and i'm planning on doing a resub. Can't say when though, since i'm really busy lately.

    The Vagrance, Thanks for the cool point-to-point review. The bassline actually is too "happy and bouncy" for this piece. Maybe I could rewrite it to something more epic.

    The main aim for this remix is oldschool trance, like the late 90's, early 2000. I'm aware this piece needs more supportive synths. I'm currently trying to add an arpeggio. ;-)

    The sidechain is actually a great idea too. I'll look into that.

    Thanks guys. Now that's some criticism i've been waiting on. :D

    I'm thinking of adding some arps, as well as some extra riffs of some sort. The current pad needs a supporting layer i guess. Maybe i'll 'groove' the main melody up a bit.

    And i definitely will work on the builds. Now i read your comments and listened to the track at the same time, i see what you meant.

    The piano section will still be in there, it just needs some TLC, and when the rythm starts, i'll try and slowly transcend it into a more fitting synth, with a bit more groove also.

    I still need to seriously master this, so in the end i'll try to get a more higher soundquality overall.

    Help me with a name for this trance original pl0x

    Hey folks.

    After posting some WIP's in the remix forums I thought hey, let's post an original this time. (since feedback on my remixes is scarce)

    Only problem is, it isn't named yet.

    So if anyone is willing to seriously think up a name, i'd be thankfull.

    It's inspired by a bit of a cross-over from "Theme of a Clockwork Orange" by DJ Tiesto & "Shivers" by Armin van Buuren.

    Let me know what you guys think!

    Here it is: untitled, 10Mb, mp3

    After a looooooong time I decided to add and scratch something from the project. I really need to keep working on this, it's only 40% from what I want it to be.

    As for being generic, true. I want to keep this in an oldschool trance jacket. (read: Sash - Encore Une Fois-style) I could maybe add some more dynamics and spice it up a little to the new standards of trance.

    The clap will be the next thing to rework into this, or maybe even cut out. ;-)

    About the lighthearted feeling, I think I shouldn't make this too much like the feeling the original has. It could use some arps like "Adagio for Strings" though, but for that, i'd need a helluva lot more time on my hands, which I don't have at the moment. It's still on my to-try-list though.
