Re: Audiophile and Ultrapak please post a sample of compressed files Matt Finley 26 minutes ago Forum: Recording, Mixing, Performance and Production Jump to new postsJump to new posts
Google results have some disgruntled people complaining that SoundCloud compresses all the way to 128. Note: the OP (who has not yet returned) didn’t specify SoundCloud; I did. My point was that to compare fairly, demos of a BIAB song must be posted somewhere they won’t be compressed (and that’s not SoundCloud).

Dans ce cas l'écoute directe est toujours latéralisée, y compris pendant l'enregistrement, mais par contre lors de la réécoute le son de la piste est centré. Je pense qu'il n'y a pas de solution. Merci de ton aide

Re: Audiophile and Ultrapak please post a sample of compressed files Noel96 1 hour ago Forum: Recording, Mixing, Performance and Production Jump to new postsJump to new posts
I agree, Matt. I find the Windows WMA files better to listen to than MP3s. When I write my songs, I always use the 'Ultrapak' version of BIAB because it is on my computer and this is how BIAB Audiophile version installs the program. Then, when I want to create a final production, I work with the WAV files on the USB drive. I can hear a difference between WMA and WAV with most instruments. Because I'm getting old now, though, my ability to hear top end frequencies is fading, these days the difference between the two file-types is less noticeable than it used to be. I always upload the Audiophile-derived end result to Soundcloud. The upload is then automatically compressed to 256kbs AAC (~320 kbs mp3) as high quality streaming format (as far as I understand). --Noel

Hi Folks, I listened to this one several days ago, and now as I'm typing, but didn't have time to leave a comment at the time. Interesting soundscape and lyric. Somewhat cryptic but extremely interesting. The production, as it always is, is superb. I love the change in musical direction from your typical productions. Well done in every way! Wishing all of you the very best. Alan

Re: WHO SAYS_David Snyder Al-David 3 hours ago Forum: User Showcase
HI David, This is so non-generic and speaks its truth boldly. I think (not sure, though) that you personally played every track on this one. The extra reverb, compared to your usual application thereof, is perfect - unlike the slop that too often comes from people's ranting and rambling about their opinions on eveything under the sun. It has drive, character, and tugs at the brain of the listener. A tip of the hat - hell the whole damn hat - for a job well done. I don't drink much of the Kool-Aid from any of the political and social entities. I think you speak for more people than you might think with this one. And I like your voice. Cool song!!! Alan

Re: Rosie the Riveter Al-David 3 hours ago Forum: User Showcase
Hi, Teve, Your musical production gets continually . Thgis is a great piece that, I assume, took quite a bit of time and effort. When I was growing up (born1947), Rosie the Riveter posters were still fairly commonplace, a reminder of the efforts and dedication of the women toward the war effort. I believe they never did the full credit they deserved. They did a lot to keep our troops and our efforts going. Good on you for this remembrance song. My mother and grandmother worked at the small arms ammunition plant in St. Louis. They were both quality control inspectors. The building stood until 20 or so years ago. Good job and a great listen. Alan

Hello Mike(Garry), Thank you very much for taking the time to listen and comment. I am really glad you like this tune and Yoko's vocal. I like EastWest's virtual instruments and use many of them besides Goliath. They all have great sounds. I am very encouraged by your kind words. Best regards. Shigeki Adachi

Re: Rosie the Riveter rayc 4 hours ago Forum: User Showcase
Great stuff Thumper. My mind wanted the industrial rhythm and melody to match - or at least resolve together. The flow of the progression, once it dominated, was graceful and pleasant. I like the sound of your voice but the narrative about the woman missing her man, living alone etc. didn't really resonate with me, I assume that is because it presumes that every Rosie had a man away at the war...it's a bit tidy I suppose. Hey, this is my sick brain twitching so pay me no mind if it doesn't jibe with your perspective. Fab stuff.

rayc, Thank you very much for taking the time to listen and comment. I am really glad you like this tune. I am always very encouraged by your kind words. I watched the animated movie Mad Monster Party on YouTube. I was a bit surprised by the soundtrack, which is very orthodox pop songs, and very different from the songs you make. But it's natural, since everyone listens to the music that's different from the style they make. I often listen to the music that's not my genre, too. Best regards. Shigeki Adachi

floyd, It's an emotional song. Great vocals! Your charm as a vocalist really shines through. You play the piano yourself in this tune. So, It really fits the song. It's true that sometimes it's hard to find the perfect piano RealTracks for the song. Enjoyed my listen a lot. Best regards. Shigeki Adachi

Re: BADBYE (New Mix) animarorecords 5 hours ago Forum: User Showcase
Hello Mike, I'm sure that with vocals it would be a great vocal song. But the chord progression and melody are so beautiful that it works as an instrumental song too. The lyrics are very sad, but half of pop songs have heartfelt lyrics. I'd love to hear a version with vocals. Enjoyed my listen a lot. Best regards. Shigeki Adachi

Re: WHO SAYS_David Snyder animarorecords 5 hours ago Forum: User Showcase
David, Sometimes it's hard to decide what kind of arrangement to make. I get stuck sometimes too, so I understand how you feel. I'm drawn in from the bass at the beginning. You've clearly found the direction, and it creates a great atmosphere. Both the performance and vocals are wonderful. Enjoyed my listen a lot. Best regards. Shigeki Adachi

Torrey, It's a great rock song. I could really feel your love for the Beatles in this tune. There's been a resurgence of interest in the Beatles recently. So I think it's perfect for the current mood. Your vocals and guitars are great as usual. Enjoyed my listen a lot. Best regards. Shigeki Adachi

Scott & Robert, It's a pretty creepy video, but I found it very entertaining. I was almost attracted by the shocking video, but I listened carefully to the music as well. It's a pretty modern western song. The vocals and guitars are both great. Enjoyed my listen and watch a lot. Best regards. Shigeki Adachi

Re: DISCUSSION >> ODD TIME SIGNATURES. rharv 6 hours ago Forum: Off-Topic
In all honesty, time signature is complicated. For instance, what time is Satellite in? Lots of correct answers, but very difficult to structure for generating, and your time signature decision affects the tempo ..and generating success, so 'time' becomes ambiguous
/I'd assume 12/8, but I could definitely see 6/8 or even 4/4 (triplet) working, and in some spots even 5/4 // generating/composing is complex and involves math and effort ///and lots of experimenting!
