What will you do once your internet-connection fails (as will inevitably happen at some point in time)? |
||||||||

|
|
Do you mean streaming is bad, or do you mean playing a wav from your computer or phone is wrong? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no music |
||||||||

i'll just go back to humming and twiddling my thumbs |

i think streaming is up there quality wise for 99% of use cases so i agree with you mo. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
thanks for agreeing with me! |

I think most people here would agree that steaming is shit. As for not listening to music on a computer, well how do I listen to my Autechre live and elseq wavs? No physical release. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh Rustin , are you experiencing technical difficulties? Maybe the steam has rusted your headphone socket? Didnt know they sent data through water vapour tho... |

I download their entire discogs, and will them psychically to make more music. Actually I do occasionally buy stuff when I have the cash, I know you cant make good music on a diet of cornflakes and pot noodles |

aint no shit in possessing any fucking music, and after ages you play timeless by goldie on you tube.... same fucking magic as if i was still a teen |

to learn to handle music as if it was the most precious of the ingredients... and not like the 10th cheeseburger |

I can agree that some people have way to much music that they don’t listen to. But I would argue that you can still have WAVs or FLACs and treat them with utter respect. Yes the computer and internet made most of us not appreciate what we have, but ultimately it shouldn’t be a question of what tools you use. As far as they go, sound quality is my only worry. Putting a record on is still a thrill for me, but it doesn’t mean I should only listen to music that way. I dunno, I think I get ya, Mo, but I do think bits are lost in translation. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
As long as you have a nice amp, speakers and a DAC. Then FLAC/WAV are awesome. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I have loads of Flac files, not because I'm an audiophile, but it just seems sensible to Rip stuff to the optimal setting. 99.9% of the time I'm fine with stream stuff. but yeah nice to have the flacs for portability, walking around |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
it doesnt matter, i play music from the internet on laptop speakers and its still music. |

y can buy all sorts of cool cheap audio gear on ebay on a budget. some nice DAC. Also old amps no one wants cause they havent got an optical input.And you can bid last second on some speakers ( best to bid not on a weekend, early hours of the morning in the week) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
What would you recommend for a budget recording device Freqy? |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
I had a HD midiplayer but I got sand in it on holiday and it broke |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
recording what? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
quiet environment or loud music |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
just mixer output, |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
do you ever watch this guys videos, Id love to a fraction of what he has got |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
an analogue mixer output. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
or a digital desk |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I suppose I need something that doesn't need multitrack capabilities as I do the mixing on the sequencer, or on the fly with mixer; |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
its an analog |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It needs a bit of repairing actually, ive had a very frustrating time with that mixer, pans aren't working properly, outputs dodgy |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you use a sequencer, so you have a PC with a sound card going into a mixer ( is it an analog or digtial mixer?) what sound card do you have? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I use midiports on pc to synths, and outputs of synths to mixer |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Autechre use anything, have even used mobile phones to record stuff. One track I know was made mostly with an iPhone app. Be creative. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
so your mixing and playing sound out of a sequecer into an analog mixer for some reason? why not mix in the box? however, if the sound card is adequate use the sound card input and record back into the PC |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ah external synths. o.k , use the sound card input. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

This was a reply to this |

I have MOTU midi interface with 8 midi inputs and 8 midi outputs |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
To state you don’t need the high end, ah fuck this! Enjoy your chat! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ah i see so you use no audio from the pc....you only have a midi interface why not get a sound card like an emu 0404 and record into the pc. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes your right you know, Musiq did a track on an Iphone have you seen this vid there is one where he has a little casio keyboard |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes I thought about that, would it effect the latency of the midi at all, or cpu, or is it not processor intensive at all |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Honestly I agree Russell, imagination always takes precedence, I don't really care for sound quality too much, as long as its serviceable |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
utilise your PC and data storage. you can record up to 192khz on an emu 0404 very nice sound cheap as chips . you only need a pci version not the pcie |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I might get a cheap DAT machine off ebay one day for a laugh, or a cassette deck, or just get a soundcard with inputs on it like Freqy was saying |
