Presonus Studio One Mix Engine FX

Has anyone got any experience of using the Mix engine effects in Studio one? I know A lot of you guys are using the Britson/Satson plugins as well as other console emulation, and wondered if anyone had used the Mix Engine FX. It seems to work differently to normal console emulation plugins as it eff...

Re: Jim Sandford - Tranz

A good rolling track; I like that Synth bass, but as RWise says it need more movement too it. I didn't mind the 2nd mid-synth that comes in, although it perhaps needs to be slightly different in terms of timbre it works rhythmicly. The percussive drums elements seem a little wooly like they're are l...

Re: [we sell boxes] - Untitled Electro Track #1

Just gonna add to the universal chorus of acclaim, but this a cracking tune, totally love it, i can see this destroying a dance floor. Mix is really good, but i love the arrangement, it really keeps you entertained and maintains your interest. Also good work on the video

Re: Encyclopedia

This track is great, i really like it. You got loads of energy and movement in it. It sounds really professional to me, and there is a nice variety to the arrangement. I'm not going to say anything about the mix as i'm nowhere near as advanced as you, but i really like the tune, i'd definitely play ...

Re: Heaven's Gate Away Team

I actually really liked this; Love the atmosphere to the track especially in the intro, really like the breakbeat that came in after the breakdown, the track has loads of variation to it which kept my interest, also i liked the big bass boom that came in from time to time, although it maybe needs to...

Re: Soundcloud - people ripping off music???

An added benefit of this is that no one can rip your tune to play in their sets I think if someone ripped one of my tunes off soundcloud and played it in a set, i'd be bloody delighted to be honest. I mean as long as they weren't crediting the track to themselves or anything. Hell i'd e-mail them a...

Re: Thoughts on 'Techno' courses?

Is there a streaming thing like Twitch that allows multiple users to talk with open mics, maybe a pro-conferencing thingy? I get the social aspects of learning and hate the idea that you have to pay for that. Especially in the connected world we live in. Hmm Skype for business would probably do thi...

Re: Thoughts on 'Techno' courses?

I mean, I owe a lot to the people who just kept on telling to me to make music when I first started and who were really positive and kind about the abominations I made :lol: Yeah i've got some great friends who've said really encouraging things about the absolute dirges i've been subjecting them to...

Re: Thoughts on 'Techno' courses?

I find the idea of taking a course for underground music production as weird as watching Bob Ross for learning to paint. Especially with all the knowledge available on the internet. What was your motivation and intention to hop on these? Which exclusive value did they present those of you who took ...

Re: Thoughts on 'Techno' courses?

The Dance Music Production courses are amazing; i've learned so much from the ones that i've got which has included the techno and tech house ones (also reverb and a number of others). Without doubt the best investment I've made music wise - 100000% recommend. Yeah i'm really happy with the Snoman ...

Re: Thoughts on 'Techno' courses?

I did the Rick Snowman one on Dance Music Production, and found it really good. It's aimed towards Drum Code style Techno which i'm a bit meh about, but a lot of the theory stuff and how it applies to Techno overall i found really useful, and the technique side of things was pretty deep (from a newb...

Re: Writers block

If i have writers block, i like to do a bit of Techno admin; Go and get some field recordings, bash a load of effects on them sample them etc. If i don't fell like writing i can at least build up a library of my own sounds to play with at a later date. I also like to do drum synthesis again to build...
