Re: Game changing headphones - NDH30

Neumann really make some excellent products.

Re: Do you have any long-term musical goals (even abstract, pompous or hilarious ones)?

Music and all the gear for me is primarily a way to de-compress and relax, but I also try and invest some time in learning and improving production and engineering skills because I enjoy it. The general goal for me is to keep this as a fun and enjoyable hobby, I have more than enough other stuff on ...

IMHO U-he are just an excellent company, so many outstanding products but I must admit I have never tried Presswerk. Still have MJUC as my goto.

I got my track played by mumdance in his radio show this evening, that’s something at least

I’ve never sent anything anywhere before but it’s cool and is a nice to hear your tune when you’re not expecting it, ie playing it yourself :lol:
Congrats!

Re: Contacting record labels

Thanks for the interesting insight, and a I second Evert's request ;)

I have always liked some of the clarity I have heard in some DnB and I of course remember back in the day all the press shots of artists in proper studios, but didn't realise the effect it had on the artists producing today.

Re: Contacting record labels

One of the things I realised is I needed to really step up my production another level as the standards in drum and bass are a little higher than techno. So I had to go back to the drawing board and reassess my production method, and really drill down on my methodology, and also learn some new shit...

Re: Live 11.3 and new Push

laptops with the same specs as push3 (i3, 8 Gb ram, 256 Gb HD) are between 500 and 600€. The Abes charge almost double, with only Live light installed... I've had my Push1 for almost 10 years now. Still working, but it's not looking pretty anymore, and I never liked the pads for playing (compared t...

I have the Mutable Elements module that I use sometimes, and Native Instruments Steampipe and Prism. All are really nice. Oh and I really like the Resonator in my Iridium.

Re: Wow, iOS/iPad apps are crazy now!

The problem I've had is I have bought the Apps, played with them for a few hours and then just forgotten about them.

Will be interesting to know if what you do on the iPad ever makes it in to a track

Re: This is the New Gear thread !

Great find! I have been thinking about getting one the Feedback Modules Pre KM for a while which is a Eurorack KM channel, because I have the Pre BX and it's good.

Re: Best/least shitty streaming services

interested in what everyone is using to listen to music in 2023? I have Apple Music because it has allowed me to upload music into it, which I can't find on streaming services but it's not great at it, and has replaced certain mixes of tracks with another that matches the metadata for some reason. N...

I was hoping that it bring about more creative uses of technology, which it does to some extent. AI, for the moment is reliant on it's human operators for good or for bad.

Goldenear Triton One.R are in the mastering room. They aren't going anywhere (although I did toy with getting some Barefoot MMs as I am switching things up in the mastering room. But last week I came to my senses and realised changing monitoring was an idiotic idea). The music studio (I have 2 room...

I'm holding back though. I have my eye on a MOTU 828es, but I know as soon as I buy one, they will be replaced with a newer model. I think the current model has been out for 5+ years.

Oh, I did get a set Kali In8 V2`s. So, ever since I built the mastering studio in the house, it changed the way I looked at speakers. It took me a year of demoing and trialing to find the right mastering speakers for the mastering room. Anyway, since then I became a speaker snob and explorer. I hav...
