The Wave Warden released Odin 2 in early 2020, and it quickly became a favorite of many soft-synth enthusiasts. Now, in version 2.4.0, Odin 2 looks better than ever. I know that appearance will never take priority over sound, but Odin 2 still sounds incredible, so a refreshed interface is all good news. One of

 

Great watch! Jeff Ellis has this thing he calls "mixer brain," when mixers are too concerned with sound and not at all with feel. This can result in a mixer brain death spiral, as he calls it, wherein a mixer inserts plugin after plugin in a chain, losing a grip on the song itself.

 

For my fellow Reaper users. :)

 

I found this video inspiring. Although I don't necessarily agree with every point, the overall premise of embracing imperfection and using unique gear is worth shouting from the rooftops.

 

Or, I’m an Artist: How Loud Should my Recording Be?

[–] BerenstainsMonster@kbin.earth 5 points 2 months ago

I'm not enough of a Radiohead fan to understand this.

 

Some good news for all, especially Reaper users. Inflator, Phoenix, L2 clones and more in this sweet suite.

 

I found this a cool commentary on whether or not sound design matters in electronic music.

 

I'd love to discover a way to record a continuous performance (no cuts/overdubs) that starts without click and then continues to a click in the middle of the piece.

An external metronome could be triggered by foot pedal, for instance. But could it be done all within the DAW? Has someone devised a Reaper script for such a thing?

 

Especially for recording vocalists, I've found it much easier to mix dynamic mics. Dynamic mics don't often get the praise they're due.

Condenser mics are more expensive to build, so they are regarded as more expensive-sounding, which hasn't been 1:1 in my experience. I find that a 57 sounds better than most budget condenser mics. I think they're a much better bang for the buck.

What do you think?

The better way to thwart republicans: take away their memes.

Who is the artist behind this work?

[–] BerenstainsMonster@kbin.earth 20 points 5 months ago

I hear people are doing such dishonest things as flooding the ICE Tip Form with false leads.

The fools. Hope they've got a VPN, or whatever it is they need to stay anonymous and untraceable.

[–] BerenstainsMonster@kbin.earth 4 points 5 months ago

Still amazes me to this day that they were able to render such a faraway horse in 128-bit...

I think there was a ROM hack that solved this floating-point error. If I can find it, will post link.

[–] BerenstainsMonster@kbin.earth 2 points 5 months ago

I appreciate it. I always thought Deezer was just a streaming platform like Spotify.

Also, dang, surprised so many downvotes for my original comment lol.

[–] BerenstainsMonster@kbin.earth 6 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I work part time as an audio producer. Converting MP3 to FLAC is like trying to upscale an image: you can use all the fancy algos to repair loss, but it's still lossy.

[–] BerenstainsMonster@kbin.earth 0 points 5 months ago (5 children)

This doesn't sound like what I'm asking for. I'm not interested in paying Deezer for music I already own.

[–] BerenstainsMonster@kbin.earth 2 points 5 months ago

Alright, I can see you'd rather not have a conversation. Peace.

[–] BerenstainsMonster@kbin.earth 0 points 5 months ago (2 children)

Hey no need to downvote, just trying to have a conversation, not a fight.

I'm telling you they don't have the same stances: one is leftist, the other is far-right. One is anti-fascist, the other is willing to partner with neo-fascists so long as it benefits their self-interest (case in point, Jan 6 insurrection).

Anarchists, like communists, want society to evolve beyond statism because they both see the state as fatally flawed at best and an oppressor at worst. An anarchist is someone who doesn't need a cop to make them do the right thing. It's not so much that anarchism is for deregulation and weak government as it for a society where all power is with all the people. In practice, instead of relying hierarchies, such as government as we know it, anarchists use politics like consensus decision-making to form community agreements. Anarchism, in this way, is a development of direct democracy.

Perhaps your judgment against anarchism has to do with encounters with anarcho-egoism and anarcho-capitalism? These two ideologies are incompatible with classical anarchism, which is based on mutual aid. Or maybe you've encountered anarcho-primitivism, which I'd agree is perhaps as conservative as it gets lol.

In the interest of vulnerability, I mostly align with anarcho-syndicalism or anarcho-socialism with some hints of post-anarchism to form my theory and practice for how to develop a mutual society that doesn't require the state.

Have a nice day!

Anarchists are not libertarians, at least not insofar as Americans understand libertarianism. The so-called Libertarian US party is right-libertarian. Anarchists are left-libertarian. Little-L libertarianism in this case refers to the opposite of authoritarianism.

But not all punks are anarchists anyway.

Neoliberalism however is an economic policy based on the renewal of classical liberalism and free market capitalism. It is a conservative ideology, shared by many Republicans and Democrats alike. Republicanism is based on classical liberalism.
