The Music Makers of Lemmy
- Ardour 8.10 Reeaseddiscourse.ardour.org Ardour 8.10 released
Ardour 8.10 is now available for Linux, Windows and macOS. As with the last several releases, 8.9 turned out to have at least a couple of new major issues that required a hot-fix. We believe that we have corrected issues with performance caused by scheduling of disk input/output threads (these probl...
Longtime supporter (but rare user) of Ardour checking in. This incredible project is worthy of a look by anyone searching for an alternative to the DAW they’re using.
- Song a week community
I’m pimping another community that focuses on writing songwriting, I hope that is okay. I created https://lemmy.world/c/songaweek which is modeled after the reddit sub songaweek.
Every Thursday a new theme is posted. We all spend the next week writing a new song. By Thursday we have our song as done as we can get it and then we post it here for everyone to hear. We then will give feedback on the song, no negative critiques please. These songs were written, recorded and mixed in 7 days. We want to encourage song writing. Your song does not need to use the provided theme, write about about whatever you want. The provided theme is just to get you started.
This weeks theme is the chord progression i-VII-VI-V. I’d love to see all of you there. https://lemmy.world/post/1884588
- The AIR Vocoder with Alex Ball
While this is probably more interesting for a synthesizer community, Alex usually touches on how these instruments influence production and writing. Plus he's a brilliant musician in his own right.
And so, I thought it equally belongs here.
Hearing that opening line brings back so many memories.
- Native Instruments Absorbs iZotope, Brainworx, Plugin Alliance
It looks like the transition to a single company is underway.
This kind of monolithic beast isn't often musician friendly (look at what Waves tried recently). But, it also opens up the door for new players to make some headroom (har har).
It'll be interesting to see how the matrix of these products looks in a year's time.
- What are some of your favourite online music making resources?
It could be anything from tutorials, YouTube channels, plugins/software, anything goes for this first post.
One of the most recent things I've stumbled across recently was Baphometrix's Clip-to-zero series. While I don't work on music that needs to be competitively loud, the in-depth series helped provide a new perspective to incorporate into decades-old mixing habbits.
