Rayza Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Here's my online dating intro "I make electronic music for fun, not trying to make a career out of it cuz y'all mofuckers steal shit and think you deserve to own our music for free, so fuck you bitch.." I get no hits.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
po! Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 i don't see the need for another term. we're all musicians, producers, composers, audio engineers, etc.. there's already terms to describe what we do. and everybody uses computers nowadays, so there's no point in distinguishing the fact that we use DAWs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgx Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Doesn't the word "programmer," mentioned by Sil, cover all of this already? I know in the industry the term refers primarily to drum sequences, but unglamorous as it sounds, "programmer" or "music programmer" may already be an accepted "title." I already have been using this word to describe myself and what I do. Music programmer sounds either like youre coding (which could makes sense if you're heavy into CSound or something, but other wise not), or almost like your DJing - setting up schedules for playing songs like TV Programmers do... The name for this is not needed and no one but one forum will heed it as analoq said. I just say I produce and compose electronic music. meh. I am an electronic music producer/composer.

Tricklozen Posted August 11, 2007 Share Posted August 11, 2007 If you change synth-sound parameters you're not a synth programmer, you're a sound-parameter configurator, and if you change the sound parameters over time, you're a sound-parameter configuration sequencer. Sound-parameter configuration sequencer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prasa_U. Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 So you're going to try and push this term into wikipedia and apparently the dictionary, and I guess eventually common usage, just because 10 or so people at KVR Audio feel like it? (of which half of the votes are probably joke votes). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
