  1. Understood! I'v been so unimpressed with my guitar tones with impulse, they felt so empty to the point I went nuts on mids lol, I'll re record this with guitar rig!
  2. http://soundcloud.com/aires/star-fox-boss-b-effen-boss ???????????? So I was bored and decided to try 5/4 at 200 bpm and............ Uneeded trumpet yes I know, but you cant have starfox 64 with out fake trumpet:-?
  3. Opps Wrong board commercial http://soundcloud.com/aires/boredum
  4. Again No paradox because those rules dont (always) apply to singing; a singer does not have to necessarily sing a melody to add dimention to a song. The factor that the singer or vocals is saying actual words! the genre of electronica as you stated before, its not very(or not always) melodic nor musical , very repetitiv though just like Faxing berlin by mau5, but if the chords happen to be weaker, then I would consider adding arps and tiny melodies, but it would still be repetitive like brazil by mau5 or a better exaple would be Eric Pryda - melo since he's been doning this longer then mau5 (and a whole lot of other people but those examples are good enough). Your second pharagraph completly proved why autotune is used which me and Jared Hudson are saying the entire time, what is it? IMPERFECTION.we can stick to the past on production wise no matter how talented. Singers in the 70s-80s made audible mistakes yes they still sound great un corrected especially to people. we know. Would it always sound like it fits in to the song at mainly extremly unnoticable times? No. And If a person cant sing then we would know off the bat. but if they have a beautiful voice and make some natural imperfection/tiny little mistakes thats hard to hear, then that does not mean we find another singer (espectially if your not currently on a $700,000 budget or dont want to take a ridiculously long time for a singer to help you sing on a track you made, unless you want). If you stick and work with that singer who you know can excel with a few recording sessions then she can sound so lovely in a song that even alicia keys will start posting dis videos on youtube (ok I'll stop). After that would I use autotune on a already great voice? chances are no but I would use it for VERY minimal purpose of cleaning up things that I cant hear that may seem nasty to the software LIGHTLY. Instrument really has nothing to do with auto tune unless what your playing has ALOT of sustain. forexaple I bet you did not know that I use autotune to hold the violin recordings together, same as the bassline in this song, while they really did not do much, it did enough and what I wanted it to do. Guitar wise cant really count because I know people who literally play like 2 power chords per recording and make the song sound intense as fuck. jun senoue? he make a loads of tiny mistakes when I see him play live, but nobody knows how he records.. We are not saying the singer you hear on the radio are fake. its all geared towared production with the use of it, not talent. auto tune does not have to make your voice (or any sound) sound robotic (it can if you want it to, but you might as well use a vocoder cause it sounds cooler), auto tune effects have actual settings that can be adjusted. Again we are not saying auto tune is a magic singing effect because its not and im not sure why people give an effect uneeded hate because its a tool.. Singing is a talent that some people naturally have with no lesson or music background or the other way around; its like your hand righting, when your used to writing in a type of mannor for years then (unless you take a LONG time to write diffrently) you will not beable to change you hand writting for a extremly long time. lots of singers dont need auto tune, and im not talking about great singers, I mean decent singers too because some singers mistakes make a track sound golden; but as a production tool TINY use of it is fine/ok, but not in all situations because in some situations it becomes redundant.
  5. No paradox, singers are in a whole different demention as another lead synth, or any type of instrument sound factor. (also that some singers dont necessarily have to be singing some melody. I hate to brake it to you again, but 90% of the great singers you hear are on auto tune, not even the most trained singer let alone 500 takes cannot always escape correction on autotune, especially if you put the great vocalist of the 80's on 20% auto tune, they cant escape the tiny imperfection changes; Though the changes will be so tiny and unaudible to human ears. You have a good point about singers though, if they cant sing then find someones else but the problem is alot of singers cant hold a note steady enough for no auto correction . The fact that a instrument have sharp pitch or fuctuates in pitch (and vocals) is the key point of auto tune. I'v rented moog and doopfer synths alot of times and if you love analog synths as much as I do you would know that they change pitch ALOT even when the synth is not detuned with other voices, and its very tough to hear that fluctuation when its not detuned with other voices and when its not in a mix because thats really tough to hear; and if you think im nuts deadmau5 said the same thing I said too... just in more profane words.
  6. Singer sounds like a great Idea! any more melodies and the song will lose alot of energy (cheese) I sometime (usually) run singers (and some analog synths) through antres auto tune to keep the song together( no not on Tpain settings lol but its tempting XD); Jared Hudson makes a great point, one nasty note can bring a entire song to its knees unless I get a girl who can really sing or does over 500 takes on one bar . there I nothing wrong with tunners and vocoders at all, making your vox a lead synth is all good. The thing that makes a song shine with its vocals is the music. plus daft punk made alot of this stuff popular XD.
  7. I submitted it ( still no respond so I think im in the clear!), but I forgot to fix the ending, I knew I was forgeting something; but besides that there are stereo issues with that song that Im to lazy to fix, I just hope they done notice it I never used Omnisphere, I keep hearing alot about it but I never bother to check it out! The main synths I use are sylenth 1, Fm8, absynth, and massve (which I have not been using in a while since I'v been using alot of fm8 synths and sampling my massive sounds). Ableton is a great all around Daw no doubt, I even stopped using cubase for it (altho I save more cpu in cubase for some reason)! Its not only a great user friendly Midi sequencer, its also a lovely program to record with! I still wish ableton had musical notation and surround sound support. Im going to do alot of video stuff soon with this game programming thing im doing and I really dont want to switch to a external daw for surround sound
  8. Thank you! I usually use the stock plugins in ableton; I had the "waves" plugin but they use way too much cpu and I only think they are trying to sell the look. I just make sure when im Eqing or mixing/leveling tracks that I get the sound on the right area of frequencies I want that sound to be in so it sound like what I want it to be, it does not conflict with anything else and gives me the opportunity to have the sound as loud or quiet as I want with no problems, but I worry less about those factors when I pan sounds in one direction or in multiple directions because I personally think sounds ccmpete less when they're in diffrent locations (unless that sound happems to be loud). I do use the Nomad plugins such as the tape saturation and sometimes use the Nomad EQs on live recored tracks but I usually use the Izotop ozone plugin for its multiban and exciter. for this track (and my other electronic tracks) I just used stock plugins; and on the master im using ozone to boost high end, mid ends and mid-low to low end. Then im using ozone's multiband imager to slightly widen the mids and high, then the exciter to add a tiny boost to those bands. After ozone comes another compressor on the master but I forgot why I put it there XD
  9. http://soundcloud.com/aires/winter Working title. Play loud 130 bpm Giving this ableton set away soon.
  10. Thank you! I love adding twists Oh the bells I also recorded myself, had them since 4th grade!
  11. http://soundcloud.com/aires/reflection-entry Hard work put into this FEED BACK PLEASE *Yes I know theres a little glitch with the lead violin; laptop crapped out during recording and I did not have time to re-record with my friend/violinist. The other instruments are vst like eastwest, free mini Dizi, and free mini erhu (thanks for angel city for the links) Wish me luck guys!
  12. I like this, especially the drums! Wait can you play bass? help me out some day!
  13. http://soundcloud.com/aires/2-takes-on-eruption-in-c hope you guys like!
  14. I make the patches, I just sample/resample them so I can use the sound with out the synth present, but not all synths I sample like chord based synths that I may want to change the cutoff automation or the chord, or some bass synths that I may want to change the cutoff or lfo pos, ring mod,phase,distortion, combfilter delay frequency or resonance. I would not say the filter it self is "dubstep" since they prob have been around for very long time, but just abused in the electronica world featuring agressive genre's But if there is such a sound that I want to edit (any sound), I can run the sample through a granular synth or other effects or just EQ the crap out of it to get the sound I'm looking for.
  15. Darn forgot lol. But I think they would reject this mix for one reason that I will not say yet because maybe they will not :/
  16. Not that I use it much either since I sample alot of synths or use a sample pack, I use the OMG combfilter( I think thats what its called if its not tell me and I will look in ableton or cubase for the name). Oh im submitting this track in evening and im posting a thread of fm8 patches, massive patches, absynth patches, and sylenth 1 patches that I use (alot ). And I might throw in some ableton live, cubase, and fl studio sets of things I finished.
  17. FM 8 and combfilters and sylenth 1 for some bass. I dont really use massive anymore : /
  18. Im subing that version to Ocr (with a few edits on the complextro lines)
  19. Problem bitch? Im also pretty sure you dont know shit lol.
  20. Then snapple's ePenis stands the same still smaller then the dislike bar on a lady gaga video Dont you have kittens to be saving from trees?
