How long did you spend on this? I ask because it sounds great, as well as I have a problem rushing my tracks. I like to finish things when I start them and can't stand leaving stuff unfinished because I generally wont return to them. I have a lot of started tracks that sound good but I never go back ...

Keep it goin! What synth did you use for that bassline?

Sick. Perfect use of push

Bukkake! Pretty cool, keep it up.

Im feelin' that. Love those drums especially. Did you make them or reprocess samples?

Sounds like something you'd hear in a soundtrack almost. I like it.

Hello everybody!

I've a few tracks up on soundcloud. 2 house-ish tracks, a glitchy track and a rock track. Take a listen, leave some feedback, talk some shit, have a good time.

Put it all in many baskets.

That's one of my reaons for wanting to backup to physical disc. I currently have that 500gb drive, 1tb drive and a 40gb drive. Everything on the 500gb and 1tb is mirrored. The 40gb is more for tranfering from computer to computer without using my backup drives. The one ...

I use Daemon Tools Lite, does what it needs too.

In regards to backups, I have managed backups for decades and I can agree that a good quality DVD can be a good backup but with data these days and the cost of a USB stick, backing up 32gb in 15 minutes as opposed to 8 x 25 minutes is reason enough ...

Do you have a dual layer DVD burner? Wouldn't it be easier to just create the first disk as a dual layer and the rest as single?

Personally, I hate DVD backups even of other DVDs. I would prefer to create an ISO and mount any day. That way I can store on my backup drive and that can be easily ...

I didn't know what board to post this in, I also have it post on NI's forum but I rarely get responses there.


So a few days ago I decided to reformat my computer and start "fresh" before installing multiple VST plugins I recently purchased. I had Komplete 8 on my machine before that and I have it ...

Use a metronome, tap your foot and count, play along to the click in Live, load a drum loop and play to that...

There are various BPM counting software utils and apps for iDevices that you could use.

Or you could record the song (in any audio editing s/w) then import it to Live and let Live work ...

i believe the best way to learn about modes is by listening to and learning music written using modes, like Coldplay's Clocks

I have seen it like that but I have also seen it multiple times where they flat a few notes when changing between modes. I am lost when it comes to modes. Any help? they ...

I want to sample some drums in a song I have. I want to create individual samples for the kick, snare, and the hats/rides/crashes. I have a very basic idea of resampling and how to do it in Ableton but I want to here how others do it and whatnot. Any help? Thanks,

I have a ton of songs that I've written on guitar but I'm not sure how to figure out the BPM when it comes time to record the track. I don't know how to figure out meter either. I generally just assume its 4/4 and try to figure out the BPM but there's got to be a better way. Any thoughts or advice?
