Re: Hooking two sets of 2.1 speakers to one output on laptop

This may not be the best idea. A problem may arise due to phase differences. Have a Google an see why it means.

In short you may find the bass notes either vanishing or increasing in amplitude depending on where you sit, and it will be different for each frequency.

Re: Question - How to use reverb on Reason.

I really wouldn't worry about what frequency you're working to. One of reason's strengths is that its easierto use your ears than try to set things precisely. Have you tried using Thor as a signal processor? That can be pretty good fun. http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/may09/articles/reasontech_0509....

Re: Question - How to use reverb on Reason.

Using the spider audio splitter, run the output from synth into that, then use one of the splits into a filter, then to reverb then mixer channel. Set verb to 100% wet. Take another split into the mixer, this will be the full frequency. Or, use a line mixer, still use the splitter, run it into as ma...

Be a musical cock tease.

Build and build and build till it's really exciting, and it makes your heart start racing.

Re: Best In The Box DAW for Android? (phone not tablet)

I use Sunvox on my tablet, haven't tried using it on a phone. It's got loads of stuff! A nice "Analogue Generator" with an envelope for the filter. And a stack of fx. Oh,and an FM synth and something called Spectravoice that I've not really delved into yet. It is a tracker though, so not s...

Re: Anyone have experience with a DX7

I DONT CARE I WANT SOME KNOBS TO PLAY WITH, Wrong synth for that. A DX7 has no knobs... Just a slider and some membrane buttons. Work flow is interesting on the DX9, and envelopes are written out in a weird way! I'm assuming its similar on the DX7, although it has 3 more of them. I wish I had the p...

Re: Anyone have experience with a DX7

I have a dx9, which is a little brother to the dx7, one thing to check is that the internal battery is still good, else each time you switch it on you get however many programmes of sine waves. I do little sketches of how I want my patch to sound before I start. I don't really know how to explain it...

Re: When writing a song what's the first thing YOU go to?

I normally am messing around with something, sound design, sample digging and chopping. Or sadly some DAW function or anothe£

I don't like starting with drums, but I will have a simple beat that I use instead of a metronome.

Re: Tales from the studio : In-depth accounts of

I'm curious how you are making the triggering happen (what DAW?). I like to use the FL Studio peak controller not to duck anything or activate an EQ, but in the opposite way--so for example when a kick hits it lets through a bit of a long vinyl noise sample that I've got looping. Sounds different t...

Re: Tales from the studio : In-depth accounts of

I've been experimenting recently with the Routing in reaper. Everyone talks about how many possibilities it has, then they just use it for sidechaining, gating and traditional effects (for want of a better term) I've been experimenting with some very 80s ideas, such as having drum hits launch monoph...

Can you not use the reason Output device at the top? Press tab and scroll up, link each of your devices to it, then rewire.

Re: Producing at Work

I use Sunvox on my tablet. I've not really used another tracker before.

What I did was to download it to my pc, since it's free, to see if it was for me, before paying for the app.

What if it doesn't have a beat? It is possible, lots of long attack sounds combined with melodies that do not have a definite beat? Or John Cage's 4'33"?

Re: What is your DAW missing?

Hudson, I know, I struggled.

Maybe skins for the JS plugs? Maybe that's possible and my coding sucks.

And it's not like the menu thing is bad cos of the actions menu, and the freely assignable buttons.

Re: What is your DAW missing?

I wish Reaper could uhmmm... Have a prettier built in synth?

Oh and maybe some of the menus could be a little less convoluted.
