>"nahh man i jus play wut sounds good ya feel me? yah just a coincidence muh chords be diatonic yo"
embarrassing
learning music theory on Alan Belkin's channel, it's super comfy
How do I add movement when processing my synth chords
Weird clicking sound when I slice to new MIDI track, send help bros.
Based Arturia Collection enjoyer
If you're slicing by some kind of beat, its probably transient issues, try slicing by transients, or if its still a problem adjust the attack slightly
When I slice by transient, it gets even worse. Same stuff when I raise the attack on the rack, the clicking sound is still there. vocaroo.com/1cAMEod6vfRZ
you've got it backwards, theory is built upon music
Last year I've taken anti depressants, gained a work ethic, and got my shit together. Now I never make music and only learn how to drum. I made music nonstop for 10 years and used music as therapy, now that I don't need the therapy I have no drive to make music. It fucking sucks, on one hand I'm finally stable but on the other I don't make dope music anymore. Any lads had this happen to them?
ackshually it is because they grew up immersed in western music conventions that when they play "wut sounds good" to them there's a very good chance it will also sound consonant/dilatonic/etc. like all the music they've been exposed to without them being consciously aware of the associated theory

actually did/do this, get very unique sound(s) and it makes me cool
stahp
turn off warping and boost tempo by a tiny bit if you want a more fluid sound near the original
Slice by warp markers is always superior
thought about posting a song but probz gonna get buried in dumb argument sad lyf
If I had a happy life I probably wouldn't care about making music
being too sad renders me incapable of doing anything but laying in bed or getting fucked up though
I sometimes wish I could go back honestly, I was a good artist and now I'm nothing but a wagecuck that plays games and reads. I still play drums but that's not the same as composing.
How do I turn off warp on all the slices at the same time?
>boohoo I'm not sad enough to make my shit music now
Didn't ask + ratio + nobody loves you
i'm sure you just need to "retrain" yourself to get back to it
desu I don't feel motivated at all most days but I sit in front of my DAW for hours because it's just habit at this point
there's still a popping/clicking REEEEEEEEEE
I want to help and all but GIT GUD KID feels more appropriate
drop the audio file here nigga I'll slice it and tell you how to git gud
>those beats are all using purity presets and basic trap drums
Yeah, but the sound selection is good and the drum samples sound better than most of mine. I struggle with sound selection a lot.
>it's not really any better than the beat you posted desu. and the mix on the first one was fucked
I don't know. They sounded pretty good in headphones.
>not sure how to rebut this but the beat you posted has potential
I just meant that it took me a very long time to come up with a serviceable but below average drum pattern.
Anyway, I don't think I'm completely against collaborating. I'm just not sure what the collaboration could be but it does seem like we have somewhat similar aesthetic interests.
