Latency on computer DAWs is sooooo fucking bad, how can you idiots stand it?

>press key on MIDI controller
>wait...
>finally sound appears

Seriously. This isn't acceptable.

>>108035762
skill issue.
check your DAWs buffer settings.
I don't really want to handhold you but 6ms is fine.
It's definitely not like monitoring GPU draw calls, way easier.

Music for empty cities. I was on the first 3 /dmp/ albums. Vocal tracks from some dumb Fiverr slut.

>Remixes
do arrangements count

>>108033506
>green goblin mode remix album
Are the stems available anywhere?

>>108037357
also, do covers count

>>108037357
good point what is remixed defined as for this album? can i redo the arrangement or song genre as long as it keeps the soul (melody, chords) of the song?

>>108033478
is it worth using a multiband compressor to duck certain frequencies if you already have a regular sidechain going on for your kick? especially if the mix is already decently balanced and sounds ok enough. would there be any sonic benefits in doing so?

>>108037357
What is an arrangement?
>>108037484
No, for two reasons: One is the album theme didn't mention covers, only remixes. The other reason is the /dmp/ fifth anniversary is coming up, and there will be a special album theme for that which includes covers of previous /dmp/ tracks.

The release schedule for this year:
April (19th album - Remixes)
June (20th album)
August (21st album)
November (22nd album - fifth anniversary special)

rephrasing the question, pedantically a remix is made from the original stems,
we dont have stems for any of these except like 5, do we have to sample the original mix or can we transcribe ("""cover""") the melody/beat
if people post their old stems this is less of a problem

if you say we need stems we dont have we should reroll the album theme

i agree
Vote for the 19th /g/ album theme (again)
https://strawpoll.com/6QnMQLRzPne

>>108042841
so we couldnt do remixes for the cover album...?

>>108040043
I thought it was remixes of our own tracks.

>>108043024
Just make that album "remixes/reworks/covers/mashups"

>>108043024
You'll be able to do remixes as well, for the 5th anniversary album

Is the full album not currently uploaded?

>>108044425
It's on YT but not Bandcamp, the Bandcamp page isn't managed by me

>>108044569
Oh ok I was just not seeing it

>>108044425
no opus version yet had to make my own

>>108037842
seasoned engineers dont seem to like multiband compressors much, somehow the crossover filters make it too easy to fuck up the relative phase of the different bands and if you dont squash the fuck out of the signal theres no point using them anyway, not sure if thats still the case but mbcs arent as popular now as they were 10+ years ago, more modern compressors tend to have just a high pass or low pass filter on the dry signal so you basically have one wet band and one dry band which is easier to manage, thats what ive been using lately too

>>108046665
very interesting... phase issues kinda make sense, but the lowpass highpass thing kinda doesnt. at that point you would probably be better off just using a regular sidechain to make space for things? like this old fuck: https://youtu.be/vr1vSlWjxaw

I've been under a rock and apparently AI covers of real songs were a thing? Also totally original music with ai in the preproduction phase too? Managed to listen to quite a lot of them before they all got purged on the tube. Save for the original music; I found out that a number of these channels went further and beyond by editing them in preproduction (or would it be called reproduction in this case?). I just have a few questions to everyone here because I really feel like a boomer right now

>Are all these songs done with suno? Or another tool? How accurate is it with specific prompts and any tips before using it? I am considering subbing for it and already I'm overwhelmed

>Why are musicians/artists online on leddit and elsewhere so upset whenever someone mentions or asks about ai? It's nothing more than a tool and I've heard songs with both ai and human involvement, and they always outperform the ai only ones which is low effort. How's this any different than digital music software and artificial instruments? Why do they always put up the pitchforks?

>>108046856
because it's very barely anything like any other kind of tool such as artificial instruments. I won't argue that there is literally zero human input or discernment, but for the (most most most) most part, it's just a turn off brain easy mode shortcut for retards to get slop out of a machine that sounds 'good enough' to their retard ears because they don't give a shit and can't be bothered to give a shit because they are soulless retards. Use it if you want but don't pretend that anything that comes out of it is yours, it's retard cope for people who couldn't be bothered to enlighten themselves to the point of even being able to truly appreciate whatever it is they're trying to approximate with their music.

But that's exactly what I'm talking about. If an artist uses it to bounce ideas or come up with a rough draft, then heavily modify it or recreate it completely and modify it; how's that any different than using a tool? I've seen a few nich channels that do this and the results were amazing so I'm asking why the pushback? It's not like I'm going to crank out some slop like that country song about shlicking yourself with a corn cob. They're making it sound like using it makes you a villain and you're hurting the industry. As if labels & megacorps haven't done that already.

>>108047053
The reason people are so mad about it, my guess would be, is because there *is* such a culture around this tech of actual goons and ghouls and soulless zombies and tech billionaires and venture capitalists who *do not* want to do anything as acceptable-sounding as what you describe. The mere use of this tech seems to lend itself to acceleration towards the death of culture and descent into consumer madness somehow hardly before imagined by most of us. I don't think someone who does what you describe is a villain necessarily, or even some random peasant who uses it as an anti-human freak, but it *is* extremely hard to give this stuff any grace. That is why people are mad.

so we don't have an album theme currently?

>>108049724
sort of, the remix theme is still happening just delayed for later in the year
vote in the poll, or just let the one guy manipulate it who cares

Album theme should be entirely KLF remakes. Not remixes. You have to remake a given KLF tune of your choice.

Something like this:

>>108054531
Seriously the album should have a fixed format - KLF song remakes. Any style should be fine, pop, rock, jazz, classical, country, rap, techno or any of the subgenres.

It would be much more fun than just "remix" lol. Also remixes will get taken down if you sample. It should be all original from the ground up. KLF re-makes.

They literally don't give a shit and both Cauty and Drummond have endorsed the People of 'K' re-dos and demanded nothing from them but paid copies of their albums.

what is a klf

>>108054924
german industrial band that the media always tries to blame for school shootings

>>108033478
Album idea... well, really a double-round album idea:
1. /dmp/ makes a sample pack
2. /dmp/ makes tracks from the sample pack (have to use more than your own samples)
