Re: Headphone thread V2: Closed back edition
Anyone ever tried the AKG K612 Pro?
Seems like the K371 / K271 mentioned here are closed back equivalents to the K612?
K612 would be my first open back.
As I understand it, open backs can deliver more realistic sound.
Compensating a bit of detail that you would get with closed back or IEM, correct?

Re: Favourite techno DJ?
Slam for introducing a lot of Detroit and underground techno to me in the 90's. I still tune in even these days but direction is questionable at times. Dave Clarke, when he's on form is outstanding though does has his off days. Mentioned already here quite a bit, understandably so. Staying true the...

Very insightful, thanks.
Better hope those labels master professionally.
No need for paranoia.

Re: Possibly strange question - Why do some of my tracks act weird when changing the tempo in DJ software
Mastering can be a culprit behind some issues encountered with DJ software?
This is can be a very serious problem.
Could you help elaborate how that could be?

Re: Using Utility to turn down the master when clipping.
I too have always worked with low volume on the channels to make life easier by headroom. To be able to then turn up channel volume one by one when mixing. To be able to work with volume upwards instead of downwards. Would be difficult to achieve this with -Db via utility on master. But who knows ac...

Re: How to not get bored of your own bars/patterns?
If I understand your post correctly, its about how a long track progressively develops without falling into the perils of tecnho repetition. There are a lot of good examples of this in techno - that is creating an engaging track throughout a duration. Largely I believe it refers to Crioch's input wh...

Re: Stop fussing and get shit done.
It also comes from impatience, people not wanting to build the skills but find a magic button solution, and also laziness, and partly just a lack of knowledge/understanding. I'm currently going through my first proper dry spell after picking up production 4-5 years ago, and I've hardly made a sound...

Well, grant you it didn't take much convincing, but this had me reading through a complete MGS timeline this morning and I'm very intrigued now! Seems I can get MGS4 on PS4 cheaply so thats nice, not sure how the graphics or gameplay hold up but I'll def give it a try. #5 should be way better on th...

Re: Favourite stories
One story that really stood out for me was the Metal Gear Solid story, especially from game #1 & 2. I never really played it after #3 so not sure how it all progressed, but the 2 first ones were very captivating even though a lot of the debt of the plot was probably lost on me as a young teen. It's...

Re: Voidloss Studio Sessions
I just wanna pop in to say that I really enjoyed the creation of that low end rumble using a short sample instead of relying on a kick's reverb or a bass artefact. Very2 cool and mind-opening to extract any sound one sees fit so long as it comes together nicely. To not be constrained by certain perc...

Re: Roland , Korg & Online Stores Fined For Price-Fixing
the CMA granted Yamaha immunity from any fines for bringing the case to the regulator’s attention. F'kin snitch! If I was GAK I would be pretty pissed at Yamaha right now.

Re: Subsekt's favourite sample libraries....
I've never procured a sample pack because stock for me is always more than enough. I used to go to freesound.org for sounds I needed that stock wouldn't have. I thought I could scale up with a bit more quality recordings though. I use them for nuances and fills. So I'm really not looking for any loo...
