well i've used cubase for five years and i'm perfectly happy with it. Im just sick of all the arguing over which is better...whether your using fl, reason, acid, or pro tools does it really matter??
hi guys...im quite new to music and i want to learn how to detect for example if i play a synth part in a daw...how do i find out what key it is in and also how do i accompany the synth part with the right kick drum?if for example the lead synth is in c...do all the other sounds have to be in c also?the kick, bass, pads, percussion, guitar and so on also have to be in c?how do you go about finding out what key it is in...can you determine this by ear??thanx
The main thing I learned from this video is that if you hav ebeen asked to share your "secrets" with aspiring producers, banging on the desk vaguely in time with your loops doesn't really help. In fact it makes it pretty hard to hear the loops you are showing off. Apart from that, good stuff!
Again - I totally agree. That's what my earlier comment to ACIDRAIN193 said. All DAWs are good quality in 2012. It's what you do musically that matters - with some nice production!
I don't understand why you posted your original comment if that is how you feel. I totally agree with you. I've used Cubase since 1991, Logic since 1995 and Ableton since 2004. I think they are all excellent (however, the MIDI and Automation in Ableton Live 8 are not as good as Cubase 6 or Logic 9 - but the session view is amazing for creating tunes and arrangements very quickly).
Personally ijust drop em into MixMeister DJ Software just to check... They also have a free software called BPM Analyzer (Recomended Download). But sure it shod be standard in every music app.
@JoeyRec they did not make samplers because of hip hop the reason they invented samplers was because quincy jones did use to pitch down/up different instruments(to create different timbres) and if you know a grain of music history then you would know that quincy jones was the producer for michael jackson, Chaka Khan, barry white, and Billy Taylor and those people did create the music of today through sampling
Interesting... thanks.. I personally still think the cubase eq and compressor are decent along with others and I use them... for trance music I just need to make eq adjustments on bass etc so it's all I need, no real desire to use any other plug in...and when/if using a compressor cubase is all i need... but there's always room for improvement.
never seen someone fudge around for so long with a premade 1-bar loop. this video should have been like 10 minutes max. in 45 minutes I could have programmed a drum track for half a song.
"ACIDRAIN193 said that Cubase rules and Ableton and Logic were not good." Ok no problem forget it... but if you re-read it I said fuck ableton and logic and didn't say they weren't good because that's obviously not true. I would say logic and ableton have the best "stock" effects/plug ins but if we are using thirdparty vst's/hardware it really doesn't make any difference what daw we use... then again i'm fairly new to music production......
Sorry buddy you dont know what your talking about, there were forms of samplers way before quincy jones, they made them to sample instruments. The first ones were used with cut pieces of tape that would unwind when you played the sample. I know who Quincy Jones is dude he is super famous. I know more than a grain of music history and you my friend dont know shit. I have been playing guitar 20 years and record as a second job. I went to school for audio engineering, like SSL consoles...
stopped watching after 20 minutes because all he talked about was how you never know what speed a sample is. "ok were gonna shop this up i dont trust anything, especially hundred dollar computer softwear, alright now that we've done that lets do it again. and again. and again. and again"
Agree with most posts relating to the type of studio and to the vibe and to the work flow. We all work with what is best for us and we work in our own way, but LAZY>>> yeah you said it buddy. This is uninteresting and quite boring to watch. Im no Quincy Jones nor do i have thousand upon thousands of dollars worth of gear, however i do think my how studio is a much more inspiring and warm place to sit and work out ideas in than his cold basement. No vibe no feeling no interest, he seems kinda pissed off that he has to well gee i dont know, do some work if thats what you call it. Sound banks and samples i have used in a many other tracks, hmm thats not a good start, and al they key board banging, dude what are you doing.
Top producer, could crack a smile once in a while though
Finding the bpm? I don't have to worry about that now I've switched to Ableton
Great video , huge producer ! Thanks
Just answering the question of what song Stoney samples from (the tribal house track). it's Steve Angello - Tribal INC.
KKTHXBYEBYE

Previewing loops at different tempos? Live beatmatches and syncs too :P
LEGEND!

Do you guys know hoe he's able to erase the congo ? Is this part of logic or wat software is that ???
NAME OF TRACK WITCH HE SAMPLED FROM CD !!!!??????? PLEASE !

I've no idea what you mean. ACIDRAIN193 said that Cubase rules and Ableton and Logic were not good.
I said that they are ALL good.
What's your point?
@JoeyRec
they did not make samplers because of hip hop
the reason they invented samplers was because quincy jones did use to pitch down/up different instruments(to create different timbres) and if you know a grain of music history then you would know that quincy jones was the producer for michael jackson, Chaka Khan, barry white, and Billy Taylor and those people did create the music of today through sampling
what is this quick command "one and two"?
samples from Chris Kaeser & Antoine Clamara - Atomic Control (Kaeser Mix)! enjoy
whats the programme?
Fair enough... good luck..
That's what people who don't know what they are doing say.
Cubase, Ableton and Logic are ALL excellent.
why not tapping the bpm?
@KosZaf it doesnt matter, there all just frequencies man! some are thicker than others, and im sure whatever he's using probably hasn't came out yet.
Interesting... thanks..
I personally still think the cubase eq and compressor are decent along with others and I use them... for trance music I just need to make eq adjustments on bass etc so it's all I need, no real desire to use any other plug in...and when/if using a compressor cubase is all i need... but there's always room for improvement.
I love 128 bpm because you can toy with the tempo of your samples. half 128=64/2=32 easy calculations :-)
@KosZaf my bad, i have that plug, its the Focusrite D2.
"We're so lazy." BING - Steve Angello
I agree... i'm no mozart or mike dierickx :)... thank you for your professional input....
is he using logic
Why not just drop a loop into a bpm counter.would save you loads of time
never seen someone fudge around for so long with a premade 1-bar loop. this video should have been like 10 minutes max. in 45 minutes I could have programmed a drum track for half a song.
those KRKs look ancient :P
it's called remix!
@entyce66
Yes, an old version...
They are and old KRK series.

who konw this song in 12.34 ?
geez..what a load of messing around..he is using DAWs like its still 1997

interesting. his studio doesn't have a nice vibe.. feels kinda like a basement.
doesnt really work that well with vocals :\

David, this film was shot like 7 years ago. I have moved on quite a bit since then. Cheer up!
To much of the old nose juice !!
boring
What a waste of time that was. lol
