Yeah that sums it up nicely for me.

Theres a useful tool that isn't mentioned often but....

At the top go to Tools > Macros > and under Misc there is a "Switch smart disable for all plugins" this way it will disable anything you aren't using when other synthes are playing.

The A-bot gets no love on the poster. My Audio portal feelings are hurt. :D

Cmon lets get more people in here like last night again :).

I question his looks.

Well I finished my submission for the Mac8 and I'm happy with it. I went with a different side of sorrow then make you cry sorrow.

Everyone is failing to see why this is such a dumb thread to start with in the first place. A tool is just a tool get over it. How you use the tool is up to you.

I've played the piano for 11 years now and I have a midi keyboard which I THEN USE TO RECORED THE NOTES I PLAY. Which is simply put, the same as playing a live instrument but with more control. My midi piano also has more sounds then my stand up piano I have in my living room.

Look at it this way. A pencil does not draw your pictures for you or write your essays YOU DO. Photoshop does not draw for you it only HELPS you and aids you to make said image. Your fighting over how someone uses a tool. A tool is just one way to achieve the creativity we have. Some tools are easier then others. You can pick up an instrument just like you can pick up a program, its still completely up to you and your skill to make something GOOD.

A synthesizer can come with presets ok? Did you make your guitar or piano, I believe not you probably bought it from your local store. Hell an electric guitar without an amp is just plain weak does that mean its fake? The way you use this guitar or synthesizer is your skill and your talent along with style. THE MUSIC IS NOT FAKE. Music is a broad subject and your saying that some music is fake which is ignorant. All that differs from person to person is why and how they use their tool to create their music.

So I use a synthesizer to make a piano sound, I can still play a piano in real life (even a violin). I don't need to know how to play it to use it. I can synthesize a guitar to add to my songs because it helps me achieve the sound I want.

Your opinion is yours but you are sheltering yourself so badly its just plain dumb. Open your eyes, do you see the kids using premade loops becoming popular? I have yet to see one track become popular that hasn't had time and effort put into it make it to the top. Yes there has been a few but they were instantly shot down by the people around him/her.

Just decide for yourself. What is music to you? I see music as another way to convey emotional messages or portray a place I've been to or dream of. The list goes on but don't lose sight of why you make music. Most of all make it for yourself.

No music is fake its just made in different ways.

Yeah I'll do it I just gotta figure out how I'm gonna do it. :D I got nothing against Paragon I just want to see the reaction to it lol.

"YOU SUCK YOUR NOT PARAGON"

Something like that.
I've already been called F-777 eight times anyways...

Updated with sidechaining tutorial.
Video is included with this one
Still accepting tutorials if anyone wants to contribute, it's not dead yet. If you have a video you can upload it to youtube if you want or whatever.

Also if anyone has any suggestions for a tutorial please tell me and I'll see what I can do.

Its updated every wed. at 12:00 AM EST. Thats why a song will not show up on the top 30 even if its #1 of that day unless its of the day top 30 is decided.

Lol the funny part is I don't make trance at all o.O

Yeah I started laughing because of that. Envy and Trance.... When?

Yeah thats what it seemed like to me. I gave him suggestions of Trance artists he should look up instead of being a jerk. Though I found it funny how he told me I should sound like Envy if I wanted to make "good" Trance.

It's all good, not the worst review I've ever gotten.

So apparently I've been lying to myself all along and I'm not really making Trance according to a review.

I like it, but it could use some improvement. For one, it doesn't really sound like a Trance song; it
sounds more like a slow Techno-Trance mix. I guess what I'm trying to say is that it sounds sort of
slow for a Trance song. If you want to make well-liked and well-known Trance songs, I highly
recommend listening to some of Envy's more liked and well-known Trance songs for some
inspiration.

I is a failure! 140 BPM is too slow for Trance....
Some reviews I get are amazingly funny to read because of the ignorance in them. Oh well I respond and try to point them in the right direction.

Just thought I'd share. :D

I dunno if its all that noticeable but the thing I really enjoy about the Audio Portal is the unique sound it has. You can listen to songs here that you will never see come from professionals but still is an amazing song. Some of the Trance and Dance music is a good unique listen along with the things that come out of Classical, and some DnB.

The unprofessional sound we have is a great way to build style and get noticed. Thats what I've always enjoyed seeing in the audio portal. No one is really trying to achieve professional status.

The amount of people who can read and spell on the AP is starting to scare me.

It sinks lower and lower each day....

Maybe try a higher BPM or span the keyboard when making a melody. 32nd notes might be a bit overkill speed wise. 16th notes are fast as is. Hope that helps.

Was it a very sticky dream you had Loogie?

This song used the same bass line through the whole song.

Just happened to work out.

I love me some DnB.

Check out Pendulum their stuff is good and I love the beats. Best way to learn is through trial and error along with experimenting. Just get a sound in your head and try to recreate it.

It's decided by people. For music it is the man who posted above you. (Rucklo)

Careful with your words you chose in the future. You can make some enemies really fast that way, I'm not bothered by it I try to keep to my neutral grounds.

The only suggestion I have for you is don't lost sight of why your really making music. (If you even know why)
