Record your music with quality audio at home | Songwriting basics and music production tips for musicians. Don't wait 20 years to record your songs.
Maybe you just have a song idea, or chord progression that you keep jamming too, but can't seem to make a complete song out of it. Maybe you have an unfinished demo version of your song.
The longer you wait, the longer you wait...
I waited so long to finish a recording (15 years!) that I forgot what it was like to finish a song..
Eventually, tragedy had struck in my family, and I instinctually started playing again as a form of therapy.
I created a new beat every week for nearly a full year. The first few recordings were lackluster at best, but I felt great! Just knowing that I could put my mind to creating a track and have it finished by the end of the week.
Over time I discovered I was actually using a system for getting songs done.
Making music can be fun and efficient. Subscribe, and let me share parts of my process with you.
I managed to cris-cross my mic inputs, but fortunately you still hear what I'm saying. Everything will be correct for vocal mixing tomorrow. Fixed audio at 55:00 🥲
Interface was acting up about halfway. I'll get this sorted for the next one. You can still hear the beat. Maybe it's better without me yapping. See you soon.
Too much fucking around at the start. 5 minutes in and i haven't seen anything that is relevant. Its just you rambling on. Make a plan for your videos, Get the technical shit sorted before you start. I can't be bothered watching people fuck around. A total waste of time. We don't care if you're cold !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey, thanks. I noticed it too. It's my compression plus the automatic studio sound thing in Descript that pushed it over the top. I'll skip that next time.
If you signed up during the stream, you'll need to sign up again as the tagging system wasn't set up properly for the waitlist. www.getsongsdone.com/mixingforsongwriters
The fact that I can't just buy Lead Architect if I want it. And if I do jump through all the hoops to get it, I have to subscribe to keep it. That's that Apple/UA type treatment. I purchase the add-ons, the Mix FX and Presonus plugins that I want. I subscribe to enough "stuff." I still love this DAW. But the Hybrid tactic is not gonna work on me. I'll be buying a perpetual upgrade license when it's that time again.
there's also people who just will cheat and that's that. The problem is that this positivity reinforce the cheaters.. those are the ones that get there first. Spitting out 10 albums a year vs 1, maybe 2 doing it honestly.. it's just, well, unfair to say the least. Tools is something that eases down specific tasks, boring or just repetitive, like automatic remove drum bleed from some mics or something.. but this is is nothing like that..its about replacing creativity cheating. The thing is, you don't and can't know who generated lyrics in AI..or write the whole song, then hit the recording studio and record the song like a cover band..who can tell? this is just awful
Depends on the goal and your current level. if you are tone deaf and think you will be the next kanye west then it will take around 10 years + 5 year of ear training. If you already have a very good ear or absolute pitch and you can retain sounds in your mind then you can likely practice creating interesting sounds and it might take you around 5+ years to hone down on creating a unique sound that might carry some substance. not sure why you had to make 20 min of talking
Apologies for not showing how to place your stereo mix in the Atmos bed. You can get the general gist from watching me mixing "Jimi Can I Hear You" Live: ru-vid.com/group/PLBbw4T816Wv71b-1wZNr9exEvuZtlCRmM Noise reduction was on the entire stream audio.
