Hey dog latin, I don't think there's anything "wrong" with it from a technical perspective, but it all depends on what you're going for. A different approach could make it sound different. But nothing sounded really weird to me.

Thanks Steve. Don't think we've got time to make it 'sound different' (can't afford the studio time for one), although I'm not sure if that means you're not keen on the song or the production as a whole ;-) do appreciate you checking it out though man.

What did you sound like in 1999 playing bass in a math-y band that listened to a lot of Heavy Vegetable and Thingy. (going back through old DAT tapes)

Would like some feedback on a new sideproj. for me also.
SK1/vox/bass/tapes all running into and out of a lappy running Audiomulch with MIDI samples. Trying to keep it all 'in the box' so still ironing out kinks in levels/signal flow.

i had a grand idea of combining a few different clips of orchestras tuning up into one long composition. i got really into the first clip i found and made this instead:

xxp That's impressive. What processing/editing did you do to the sample?
― Will you see a political publicity stunt? (snoball), Thursday, 4 April 2013 21:57 (eleven years ago) link
that is a good idea for a track, Z_S
― pssstttt, Hey you (dog latin), Thursday, 4 April 2013 22:15 (eleven years ago) link
thanks!
the editing was really simple. i just isolated a 2-3 second long segment of a youtube recording of an orchestra tuning and put a copy on two different tracks. on one of the tracks i time stretched the clip a little bit (making it 4 seconds or so - i ignored the metronome and bpm for this song). then i looped both tracks, with reverb and a little delay. since one of the tracks was a little longer than the other, they fall in and out of phase. then i made copies of those two tracks, and added a little bit of pitchshifting (maybe a fifth up, only 25% wet). so for the first section, it starts with the two tracks phasing against each other, and then gradually over the course of a minute or two the pitchshifted tracks enter the fray in the center channel while the two original tracks divide to the left and right channels, respectively, as they fade out.
then i repeated that whole process two more times, using two other 2-3 second clips from the original recording. so that's an A, B and C section. then i just went with a good old ABCB structure, about 2 minutes for each.
i'm bummed because as usual i put the whole thing together with headphones, and it sounded nice, and the panning for the various tracks during entries and exits helped to define the "movements" more clearly. but on laptop speakers and ipod headphones, all of that is lost, and the shifting bass tones in the B section are pretty much inaudible. so it'll sound like a muddy mess pretty much 90% of the time that anyone ever listens to it. luckily that'll only be 15 or so plays!

listening to your music on a shitty car stereo (like mine) or phone/laptop speakers can be a crushing experience.

So hey again, I'm no muso but I've been working hard on writing and improving my songwrtiting and I'd be interested on feedback here, I know it'll be harsh. I know the mix is shit - that side of things I'm still learning. So put that aside and any comments welcome.

(and yes theres a glitch at the start of the track, no idea why)
― It is like ganging up on Enya (Trayce), Wednesday, 10 April 2013 13:46 (eleven years ago) link
I get the same kind of glitches whenever I render a track in REAPER as an MP3 (using the LAME codec). It doesn't happen every time, and when it does it's in different places, but usually at the beginning. One of the reasons I switched to using FLACs instead.
― Will you see a political publicity stunt? (snoball), Wednesday, 10 April 2013 13:51 (eleven years ago) link
Yes thats exactly it! I built the base music in FLstudio, rendered that to a wav, added that wav to my Reaper file with my vox etc, then when I rendered THAT to mp3 it fucked up. In the same spot each time! Even when I re rendered the base music!?
― It is like ganging up on Enya (Trayce), Wednesday, 10 April 2013 13:59 (eleven years ago) link
Anyway I'd like to know what anyone interested thinks of my track :) its the first time I have written/sung a full track all on my lonesome.
― It is like ganging up on Enya (Trayce), Wednesday, 10 April 2013 14:01 (eleven years ago) link
the music and songwriting are both great, some of the vocal harmonies sound a little off but harmonies are hard. if it was my song i'd make it a little shorter/tighter by cutting a verse but that's not a reflection on the song, just my personal preference.
― congratulations (n/a), Wednesday, 10 April 2013 14:39 (eleven years ago) link
The instrumental bit between 2:40 and 3:15 could be a bit shorter, as well as the outro from ~4:10.
― Will you see a political publicity stunt? (snoball), Wednesday, 10 April 2013 14:57 (eleven years ago) link
(I'm tone deaf, so can't say anything re: harmonies)
