Bad Audio Quality In Sampler vs Good Quality In Simpler

Putting a sample into Sampler(with an "A") seems to degrade the overall quality of a sample, making it sound like a lower quality MP3 version of itself. However, putting a sample into Simpler's one shot mode sound much better, as if the sample was just put in an audio channel. Just convert...

Re: How do I give the bass more punch and power?

You have it all wrong. You want the kick to be punchy and bright, while the bass should be deep. Right now you have a kick with a weak top end, and a bass layered with an open hat that makes it sound doubly bright. You need a DnB kick, and roll off the top end of the bass with a low pass filter on e...

Re: Mastering Fail - Thinking about giving up now after 7 years.

The reason your track sucks is because your composition and sound design sucks. Others will have you believe mixing or mastering can fix it, but they can't. They can only polish the ideas that you come up with. Go listen to other professional tracks and listen to the composition, rather than "t...

Re: I need to block BASS so my neighbours don't get mad

Rent a different room. Don't make music while the neighbors are home. Maybe you could pay them to tolerate your bass. Did you talk to your neighbors? Maybe they don't care or can't hear very well.

Re: What to look for in a cheap pair of monitors?

A pair of HS50m's go for 400 brand new, so I would recommend just saving up. There's really no use buying a pair of headphones or monitors for 150, you'll just regret it later when you finally upgrade. Sell your APC if you have to. Monitors are more important.
