Love twitter, much better than facebook. =]
I use it to get the word out about some of my music and various projects.
You can find me here
I'll follow back too (As long as you're not a spam-bot or anything). =D
All samples are under the creative commons licence (They can be used for whatever you want). They are all recorded at 44,000hz at ether 16 or 24bt. There's various loops, hits and some musical phrases in there too.
Drum samples, Synths and stuff. For use in music and scoring. Mostly recorded using my hardware synthesizers. =]
Here's the link again. http://skatterbrain303.tumblr.com/Sample s
I don't know if there's a thread already for this type of stuff but if you would like to check out any of my free sample packs head over to my Tumblr page.

theres a link in the left menu to my samples. If you find them useful or make anything cool with them be sure to let me know. =]
-Thanks, Dan

im on about mastering within your DAW, before exporting. not sending an audio off for someone else to master.plus even then its not onley just eq and compression, there are more ways to alter the final audio. take the beatles that used tape processing and layering to there final audio masters.
i usually master while im mixing but i suppose its a fine art that can be done in different ways. i know a few different guys from other local studios that do their mastering compleatly different than me or eachother.
people are getting confused between recognising melodys and being pitch perfect.
the best way to recognise melody or chords is to learn theroy, its takes a few years to learn everything but when youve got the knolage youll know what your hearing and wont take you long to work stuff out
pitch perfect if where you can sing any note your given perfectly in tune without listening to it beforehand.
Mastering....
why is it that everyone assumes mastering is just adding EQ, compression and a few fancy effects.
Mastering is just geting the quality of your final mix to the best level possible by making sure: all of your levels are at there highest without peaking/clipping [otherwise when its turned up too loud it will distort], everything fits nicley in the mix [nothings too overpowering], adding final effects to your tracks [this is where your compression and eq come in], adding master effects[an effect added to the whole mix via the "Master" channel on your mixer] and adding any little final touches to your final mix before exporting it.
All this takes time and practice, but is well worth it in the end =].
However, i do use masting suites likeTrackS while mixing and mastering. to add that extra bit of shine or warmth to the mix.
sorry if this sounded like a rant, but i had to say it haha.
vodka mixed with....more vodka
or just drink whisky its far nicer than vodka mixed with anything =]

limiter and compression are two compleatly different things.

Just about anything.
from black metal to jazz and everything in between.
ive found many times where im listing to death metal and get insperation and and then turn out making an ambiant or orchestral track piece
free sound projects a good one.
also i bet if you post on here saying what kind of things your looking for im sure some people would make you a sound set
you could try the boss micro br, its cheap (about £160) and its a nice intro recorder to get you started.
but your not gonna get a decent one with out spening a lot off money (my 16 track cos £1500)

you can use an automation clip on the tempo for a cirten section.
rightlick on tempo > add automation clip > then cut it down for the section you want

its not that expensive compared to other orchestral plug ins.

There are many ways to spark the mind.
heres a few i find usefull...
-Mess arround with a synthersizer. try making yourself a new patch or preset something you can use.
-sort out samples/audio files. Not onley with this help tidy but one of the samples might spark some insperation
-look on the internet for free vst instruments [KVR etc.]. if you get something new you will naturally want to try it out, and write a few bars see how it sound. even if its not useable, what youve written may help with a intro, chorus, verse etc.
-listen to your older stuff that youve already listened to
-put the tv on in the background [hopefully something that wont destract you]
theres plenty more but try these.
let me know if this helps anyone =D
