There's a lot of EQs that allow you to do that. You were probably thinking of Firium, now known as FIREQ (linked above). CurveEQ is another alternative. edit: Just remembered I once used a plugin named Freeq Boy that did this also. Dicky B fucked around with this message at 18:19 on Feb 2, 2009 |

Slightly off-topic... I make entirely electronic music, but I'm working on something at the moment that is itching for a live performed drum track. Since it doesn't need to be professional quality, would it be worth starting a thread here in ML where any drummer goons can record their own drum track, with a small prize for the one I like the best?

h_double posted:I've been playing around with the GrooveMonkee drum tracks, which are MIDI drum tracks played by live drummers. I'm using them with Battery, but they also come with presets for EZDrummer, BFD, etc. There's a pretty generous free sample pack on their website. cubicle gangster posted:It's been done before and worked out ok. My problem is I have difficulty getting things to sound "realistic" when I need to because it's usually not important in the style of music I like to make. I also don't know anything about live drumming so I'd get likely get much better results from a real drummer than I would from programming it myself. Here's the track I'm working on with some drums I whipped up with the GrooveMonkee midi tracks and one of the Reason factory drum kits. I'm trying to get it to sound something like The Go Team I suppose. The drums come in at 1:16 and 2:41. Thoughts?

chippy posted:Greetings electro-goons. Can anyone point me in the direction of a free (or cheap) VST that does the whole dubby tape echo thing (where the loop kinda "degrades" and distorts as it repeats)? Or, is there some way of chaining together other effects to recreate this sort of sound (I'm using Cubase Studio 5). I really like WatKat, although it's a little gimmicky: quote:WatKat is a digital “clone” of a Wem Watkins “Custom” Copicat. It sounds very lo-fi, noisy, irregular. When you turn it off and leave the tape loaded, the tape bends in proximity of the capstan, and this turns into a periodic pitch fall during echo playback; plus, it gets hot and the background hum gets worse in time... you should turn it off every now and then; the tape is never completely erased, and the capstan motor flutters... and it gets worse if you touch it while it's spinning; heads tend to get dirty very soon, infact you should clean them often.

-8191 to 8191 is the standard range for midi pitch wheels, so to get an exact pitch the formula is (8191 / pitch bend range * pitch difference) So for example if the pitch bend range of the instrument is 7 and you want to transpose up by 2, you do (8191 / 7 * 2) = 2340

How is Cubase 5? I just discovered I can get it discounted as a student. I've been using FL Studio and Reason for years and Cubase is the only other DAW I've really liked the look of. I can't seem to find a demo though.

chippy posted:edit: That said, I find real-time knob twiddling and stuff to be a bit of a mission to do with a mouse, and I intend to get hold of a MIDI controller/keyboard for this very soon. I find entering things in via the piano roll to be a horrible tedious affair, especially as I can play the piano. I should imagine this applies to most of the other DAWs to some extent, but maybe some of the others have a UI layout that works better for this, bigger buttons or something.

Well I think both together would be more. Melodyne Uno alone is around $100 cheaper than Cubase 5 with the student discount. I was assuming you already had a DAW

Try pressing L to switch to song mode? Just saying "it does not work" doesn't really explain what the problem is buddy If you literally don't understand how the playlist works at all then you should probably just start by reading the manual.

Yeah I can't even recreate the sine wave thing to demonstrate now so I guess I'm talking out of my rear end. I certainly remember getting frustrated because there was slightly audible white noise as if it was sampling at a lower bit rate than the rest of the DAW. Perhaps they fixed that in version 8, I dunno. This is the first time I've tried it since I upgraded. Sytrus is fine. It's FL Studio's best synth. The others are all pretty bad (but what do I know)

That depends on how you're going to want to use it. If you're just going to be figuring out chords and ideas that you will later program in a midi editor then 25 keys will be fine. If you're going to want to record and play entire pieces then you will find the limit very restrictive.

You mean like this? Click here for the full 691x781 image. I use this technique pretty often. I suppose there's a chance of some phase cancellation when mixing down to mono if you're working with steady waveforms. If the end product is going to be mono then why bother with widening at all, out of interest?

I went ahead and bought the Ohm64 by the way. This thing is great! Really well made and fun to play with. I've recently switched from using Reason to Renoise as my main DAW. I wish I'd got into using trackers sooner because it really fits my method of working much better than sequencers. I'm astonished how easy it was to pick up. Here's my first work in progress tune in Renoise after a couple days of using it.

Reason is extremely versatile and if you're looking for a self-contained package then it's a good choice. You can't do proper granular/spectral processing but that's about the only thing that's missing. If you have room for your big keyboard then I don't see any reason not to use it. You may want to get a controller with some knobs, buttons and sliders but that's up to you to decide if you need it.
