Thanks for listening.

got my tune "soulsearch" played on kissfm! I totally defiled the housy nature of the show too. stuck out like a sore thumb compared to da house they played before it

motske

not your dubstep

j/k will listen tonite

I don't understand why you commend them on a fantastic product that you then reveal you don't think is so fantastic. Flatery before complaint approach a tactic of some kind? Its called the stroke and kick technique. It works. lol, one piece of bread away from a praise sandwich http://www.estherderb...

hey all,

To dig up an old thread... Took the advice of Spherix et al and ended up putting this setup together: http://michael.4bitterguys.com/Stuff/musicstudio.jpg The foam installation job sure ain't the most professional, but it serves its purpose. 2 x isolated Mackie HR824s 1 x MOTU Ultralite Totally sil...

motske

shit they are big ports

on the speakers that is... any idea on the litreage??

motske

heard good tings about the SAE and JMC Aud Eng courses, however it'll set you back about $11,000 a year

motske

for the snappy snare, i found that this works well sometimes... 1. get your snare 2. use a multiband compressor to compress ONLY THE LOW frequncies 2. use multiband distorion to ONLY disort the MID frequencies 3. use eq to control the snap at hi freqs if you dont have any multiband action, you can g...

motske

i think spherix said that m1's had fake bass... dunno about the term "fake", but the higher harmonics of bass tones are more accentuated to give the impression of more bass. Actual fake bass can be found in little speakers that have things such as a little DSP chip with an algorithm in it ...

oooh

intersting

motske

serato is really good, especially with a fast computer. i can achieve 1-3ms of latency using an AMD 3800X2 on an NF3 board. so it's more "how quick" (latency) rather than "how much" (bandwidth) are the ins and outs of serato in the mixer hard wired inside the mixer ? maybe this s...

motske

i think cc's light and sound do some monitors... i think soundcorp does (they actually have some bm15a's -not bm5a- going for $4099 atm). also try interstate, like turramurra, derringers, musiclab, brisound, vevlet systems etc... shipping is dirt cheap :) i also think awave is good because the poepl...

motske

try velvet systems in Qld... got my BX8a's for just over $700

they are ok speakers... there are better for the price methinks

motske

had my mixer repaired by a dude at Warehouse Sound Systems... he was pretty grumpy and he smoked like a chimney in his workshop with butts covering the ground (whilst probably ashing in the exposed gear heh). This guy is the recommended repairer for Allen and Heath mixers!!! how the hell did he mana...

motske

i would suggest a RME multiface... and also robbing a bank :) these are expensive, however rme has become some what a standard in h'core recording... ofcourse if you are not recording and mainly sample based, then this is a waste of dosh IMO, however if you think you'll grow into recording, then it ...

motske

i think the "big real but not real" sounds are infact exactly that... what timmah said i find that evn off 'proper' sample cd's, the sounds still need to be tweaked (what lil evil said), but also layered with other (also tweaked) sounds to give the desired effect. there is no way other tha...

motske

maybe after he re-imported the break, he left the previous one active and is actually playing the new break over the old one.. heh... or maybe he is talking about ADSR... I'm confused too

motske

I like behringer... they saw an opportunity to sell the most budget of budget gear, and they have done well... just imagine how many people wouldn't have been able to do what they wanted to do because of how expensive (nice) audio stuff is. I really hope behringer isn't too affected by this because ...

motske

nice1!! thanks

motske

^ thats kinda clever jbs, i never thought of tryin that :) the hardest thing ive done is trying to get the panning right for some heavy rock / metal tunes that me and a mate did.. I think i spent more time on panning shit than actually doing 'musical' stuff :( Electronic music is sweet because panni...

motske

yea i agree, panning can help, although in a club isn't true stereo pretty hard to come by? it would be interesting to hear a tune in a club that has mono drums, and then the same tune with more panning... anyone tried this??

motske

I am sorry this turned into a OS bashing discussion as well... i wasn't trying to rip on Mac. neither am i die hard windows fan (it doesn't matter to me)... i enjoy discussing the merits and downfalls of ALL platforms... without being bashed :( this production and technology forum seems not to be th...

motske

evidence on both OS and hardware, not yours though... impartial, wholistic (i.e, blanket, not just your computer) evidence plz :) my pentium 4 2.8c has been running for longer than 313 days without crash running at full load, and so have a lot of other computers, mac and otherwise. computers are a t...

motske

lol, okay you win

motske

I do agree with you alot fooishbar, thank fr your controlled and pleasant response :) the problem here is that i asked for concrete evidence regarding stability issues... i got none... to say that i said that "windows doens't crash evar" and that i found benchmarks for it?? wtf?? okay.. i ...

motske

im simply pointing out a shift in apples business plan... you are saying how stupid i am.... okay... i asked you to prove yourself on the stability facit of this conversation, and you said "it's provable". so do it!! you can't... its a bias statement!. I pointed out factual sales data, to ...

motske

you would think the market would decide which platform is more suited (to everything really)... oh wait, apples cpu sales increased 6% in 2004/5 :( thats not very snazzy... oh, is it because apple are in the business of selling ipods now?... hmm (ipod sales increased 500% in the same period). intere...

motske

although this seems for graphix mostly so i guess MAC is the only choice

motske

yes macs are good, BUT!!!, for a lot of processor hungry tasks they are not the best, although they do the job well. I am simply trying to suggest other platforms that I believe are more efficient, flexible and cost-effective. especially considering the huge recent price reduction in Dual 2xx series...

motske

erm, i disagree that if you need a computer now just buy it. Thats silly. would you flesh out full price for a product nearing the end of its' life cycle given that a new and improved replacement is on the horizon??

a very helpful site

motske

^^ good idea :) a cheaper method rather than plaster is to sandwidge a dense layer of vinyl matter between two sheets of MDF or gypsum board. http://www.musicianswarehouse.com.au/default.aspx?Pg=21&ProductCode=AU526 a cheaper equivelant (and also autralian) for limp vinyl http://www.soundguard.c...

motske

For everyday usage, i agree the apple looks really good. so I guess it comes down to what you want to use it for... in terms of stability, you will find it extremely difficult to find concrete evidence that PC's are more unstable than their Apple counterparts. this is a subjective claim swayed by pe...

motske

not me, but I'm seriously considering a couple of UAD cards.

with creamware, you also get asio drivers and a couple of I/O no ? for synths i would definately go the creamware, for Fx, i would go PoCo or UAD. PoCo for revrbs/ and sony oxford plugs, UAD for eq and dynamics.

motske

if you're getting a desktop, don't go intel. in terms of i386/amd64, amd make the best processors by FAR. they kick intel up and down the park in terms of performance, price, and just generally not being crap. but the g5s are nice as well, and it's really, really hard to go past the powermac g5 in ...

motske

I would not go mac for the simple reason that they are too expensive for the task they perform. before getting a mac, please realise that you actually get a lot more grunt and power per dollar with dual dualcore AMD opterons. i dont care what you get, but the simple fact of the matter is that apple ...

no doubt it's free, fiberglass is dirt cheap yet it is one of the best materials to use!! 'ave a geez http://www.bobgolds.com/AbsorptionCoefficients.htm CSR/bradfords and Insulation solutions use a similar manufacturing technique to Owens Corning fiberglass, so the data also stands for stuff made he...

motske

woop my bad :blush: still don't think carpet is the best material for absorbtion though... testing data that ive seen suggests no absorbtion at low frequencies from carpet, although at high freq it's more efficient. bass is the tough one to solve. maybe i'm just trying to justify my excessive spendi...

motske

strategem as you prob know there is absorbtion, then there is isolation. To sound proof you need to isolate. To make the room sound nice you need to absorb. i think you may be a bit mixed up. putting carpet up may increase the STC (sound transmission class) of a wall/floor/ceiling a tad, but it wont...

motske

yea save alot!!!
some nice ones are the dynaudio bm5A's which are actually goin for cheap at turramurra music, they're xdemo tho, only $1749

next up I would say Event ASP8 at about $2500 ish

motske

^^ xactly

motske

i would say that if you have a spare SPDIF on your sound card to feed to these speakers, then the analog ports could be used for something else, like outboard stuff.

motske

Audio farm is great :) hehe... Invites are also scarce, and as Liverwire said there is risk involved. Dunno if you remember Fents but I offered you some AF.cc goodness a while back but sumfin happened to your car or something (I think I was gonna meet you at The Bird or sumfin).

try a power conditioner (furman ones are good) and check that the earth/ground(s) is/are all proper. some houses aren't 'grounded' properly and that (i think) can cause some nasty 50/60hz hum action
