can anyone relate to a buzz addiction.

my job may be on the line because i f*cked up big time after a night of buzz (=little sleep). for the sake of a tune! relationships are crackling (w/ girlfriend of 3 yrs), because i like making music on buzz. i am being offered an opportunity w/ a record label (xtra pressure), though this contravenes w/ other stuff (my job). can't seem to let go, once involved. abstained after 4 yrs of study, but now its catching up w/ me.

hearing new music doesn't help! alva noto's latest. anything on miasmah. Chk Ben Frost Theory of Machines, and if you're not hooked i sympathise w/ YOU!

this is addiction... spend hours on parameters? buzz = m. addiction? can you relate?

if it's a startup crash, there are 2 things to try:
1. Create a shortcut to Buzz. Right click it and select properties. There you should find "compatibility". Try setting it to windows 98 or Win 2000.
2. If that doesn't work then you have a fucked generator or effect. Basically remove everything from the generators folder and then start dragging generators in, 10-15 at a time. Restart buzz every time you add new generators. When you get an error message you know you have just added at least one faulty machine, isolate it (find out just exactly which generator it is) and delete it.

It's like a tracker, right? Do you actually use it?

The answer would be yes, I actually use it. I love it . Buzz is awesome too, but it's stability was a huge issue for me, plus it's GUI didn't work for me. It wasn't very inspiring. Renoise is, for me. That's a very personal opinion though.

best music comes out of "garage-band" equipment IMO.

maybe you can post some gui pics from the monitor?

Posted by Storyteller on Jun-04-2007 17:55:

What do you mean, monitor? Screen shots?

This is one shot taken from renoise.com / google.

Sorry for the thread hi-jack.

Posted by winston on Jun-04-2007 18:01:

yeah, screen shots.

looks interesting...

Are you a former tracker, or is there another reason why you're as interested as you are. Most people tend to stay away from trackers.

Posted by winston on Jun-04-2007 18:29:

well, i like buzz alot. i think it's very easy to use and you can have greater control of the sounds that come out of the speakers. It took me some time to get the basics done, but like any software, after a while it's just as easier as any other fancy studio software.

Posted by SMC on Jun-04-2007 18:55:

I started out with ft2 back in the days.

Posted by Storyteller on Jun-04-2007 21:31:

ST3 here

Renoise is generally FT2 with up to date technology. It's awesome

Posted by winston on Jun-07-2007 17:05:

two important questions.

1. How do I make use of my TR-808 in comparison to the physical drum machine?

2. Anyone heard of Acid-X sequencer and where i can get a free copy? I heard it was free so I ask.
