I dare anyone to do a double-blind-test with the same audio file as .wav and as a 320 mp3. You can't hear a difference, really.
(That is of course if the encoding was done properly and the source material doesn't sound like shit to begin with )

Re: Melodic/Detroit Techno : Chords!
The piano sound in the first track sounds like a classic Korg M1 house piano to me. You can download free samples of it here: http://www.failedmuso.com/blog/?p=431 As far as the chords go, they are basic minor or minor chords. In Detroit Techno, you can get an authentic sound if you just sample one ...

Re: SHAKERS in Detroit/Deep Techno/House
Try a groove! The "Notator 16A" to E seem to work really well with house and techno.

Re: Anybody regret their Yamaha HS 50M monitor purchase?
Just because speakers sound flat and neutral, doesn't mean they still can't sound good. So yeah, add me to the list of people that say you should really be enjoying what you hear while you're working, othewise, why bother? I agree with you, there are a lot of flat and neutral, yet still nice soundi...

Re: Anybody regret their Yamaha HS 50M monitor purchase?
I really don't see the point in using studio monitors that sound awful. Maybe your mixes will turn out slightly better, but if the whole process of making the track is a pain in the ears you'll probably get a worse end result. Also, don't you like to listen to music? I don't have the space for anoth...

Re: No delay compensation for Automation??
The missing PDC for automation is the biggest flaw in Live for me atm. And I'm not an Ableton hater in any way, in fact I love Live 8 and have very few issues with it. My projects tend to get huge, I love my selfmade complex effect and instrument racks (one of the biggest strenghts of Live imo); the...

Now that the Diablo III release date has been published, it can only be a matter of days until we get a Live 9 announcement.

Re: don't worry, dubstep is now officially dead
I don't get the whole "dubstep is dead" thing. The videos posted in these threads aren't even dubstep, they are brostep. And yes, brostep sucks ass, imo. But proper dubstep like this , played on a big ass sound system with huge subbass (not this midrange crap nowadays) will never lose its ...

Re: Fabfilter Saturn
Oh this looks so sweet. Fabfilter just get it right - superb sound quality and very clean interfaces.
Wonder how much this will cost - it's probably the one distortion unit to rule it all. Never liked Ohmicides interface...
