anyone from the mailing list? anyone doing IDM? How do you compose? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
a friend of mine uses Buzz with an IDM filter on a Buzz Machine. remarkably good with no effort. but all good IDM needs heart. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

Buzz is a fuckin good prog if ur into IDM. It's the best prog for it i think unless u write ur own software. just takes alot of time and effort. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I've done few tunes on Buzz myself but the thing i hate about it is that it's unstable as fuck. I've lost so much shit due to crashes. and the Jeksola bloke who wrote Buzz lost the code for it when his HDD went down so no1 can update it. what a cunt! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Where can I get this prog from? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
http://www.buzzmachines.com/ best thing about it is that it's free too |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
This could be cool |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'd reccomend u using win98 if ur gonna use it. but it still crashes every now and again nomatter what. just make sure u save ur shit all the time. |
||||||||
|

i use about any program i come across really. i´m doing pretty fine too, in progress with two possible deals. |

i suck at buzz. i'll stick my floops i guess. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
sounds intriguing... d/l the slim version as we speak thanks titworth:) |
||||||||

Reaktor and Reason are supposed to be "the best" currently. Buzz does get mentioned a lot too. I use modplug and have only used it ever since. It's definately beneficial to get to know your software so you can do things without really thinking about how as much. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah I's gettin kinda like that wid floops get's just a smidgen of a wee bit borin.. I've got a free cut down version of Reaktor somewhere..just runnin out harddrive space :( |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
btw mW dat poshnu sounds like a pretty groovy place ;) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||

poshnu rules. all your tracks are made with fruity loops right? You definately have good control over it. Continually try new techniques and try new ideas for it to stop being boring. For example, try to make a track with a completely different style, you learn new methods and stuff that way. But I don't know how versatile or elastic fruity loops is but I'm sure it offers some different directions to take. |
||||||||
|

|
|
What do people reckon is best for ambient music? I have made 1 or 2 tracks that are properly ambient using floops, but more by accident than design. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i use buzz a lot ...reaktor..... www.besonic.com and then search electr0.....2 tracks ...old tracks |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I use assorted free software and Fruity Loops. As far as making the sounds, I use random programs and compile things in Fruity Loops. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i use sawcutter to make ambient music but thats just me...i'd recommend finding a software you like...and getting to know it the best you can...once you become really familiar with it...you can do anything you want with any software, methinks |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I have a cheap version of Sonic Foundry's Acid Music, and a shareware program called Hammerhead (drum loops)...and a few wav, midi manipulation programs... Nothing fancy...of course neither is my music. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Reason, Nuendo, and i come up with the beats in my head. Comes Naturally |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
all i use is a wav editor and a sequencer, works fine, and a keyboard with a guitar effects pedal |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
because the process i use to make my music is so tedious, my songs usually never get finished (primarily a wav editor, CoolEdit, and a drum synthesizer, Stomper) |

I've been lurking on the IDM-Making List for about 2 months now. It's actually great reading, and if I had the money to buy any of the gear mentioned there I probably would. Anyway, I do make IDM (the best of it is at shameful.dmusic.com), mostly using Fruity Loops w/ a bunch of machines imported from Buzz. I'd like to learn Buzz itslef, but haven't mustered the effort to figure it out yet. |

I don't like buzz. Its a neat program, but the sound quality SUX. Converted from fruity to buzz back to fruity, cause all my shit made in buzz sounded like it was made in buzz, which is a bad sound to have. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Cheers for the mention of IDM-Making... have just joined... and yeah, Buzz is cool (is that true about losing the code tho?...) & AUiomulch is pretty cool... I find Reaktor to be too complex and it gets in the way of what I wanna do...the music not the tech MUST always come first... CoolEdit Pro or ACID is good for multitracking but Cubase VST is even better.... Depends what you are comfortable with/have time to learn... |

What I like about buzz is that it's free, which means the programmers can take more risks and make more experimental machines. Some of the most innovative noisemakers are found for free in the buzz package. Therefore I think it's an ideal program for GEM/IDM/whatever |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm on the list, been on for a week or so now. I found out about Audiomulch through the list. Really nice :) I have to get back on the Nord modular mailing list..if it still exists. -P |

I really enjoy fruityloops. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
im really gettin burned out of f loops. i need something eles to generate melodies/tones. whats the best thing i can get for free? |
||||||||

BTW, Native Instruments is about to release their new reversion of Reaktor, and appearantly it enables you to interconnect multiple reaktor ensembles to gether at once, without having to fuck around with too much shit that would normally take you months to a year to figure out. You can also edit existing ensembles with the same ammount of ease. Baisically they making it so the novice can sit down and pump out a relatively usefull ensemble. Its called Reaktor Sessions, and it looks like it might be nice. Absynthe for PC is coming out in a bit too. www.nativeinstruments.com |
