Ta Production

Hey,

Im sure alot of you might think this is a stupid idea but out of pure boredom I though of a this idea where Ta producers come toghter and make a track. Everyone can add there own little bit of the track and eventually maybe something will come out of it. . Im just learning to use Logic so I came up with the loop below. I have attched the aif and midi file. People can add to it or do whatver but hopfully by the time its done it will be a big colaboration amonst ppl on ta. The challanging part will be working with other ideas to try and work it into something good

Far too difficult. It would be hard to manage.

The idea isn't bad but you'd need to keep the group under like 5 people.

Been tried so many times. Never worked.

It probably just wasn't organized well. You'd have to set some guidelines up first:

We all use the same software, and all have the same virtual instruments / plug-ins. Ideally the factory install. If you use a third party instrument, you'd have to commit the track as a bounce audio track.

Instead of midi tracks... we'd easily be sharing a logic project file.

We all can't work simultaneously so each person gets a week or so, and hands it off to the next. The new file, and audio assets get uploaded to an FTP server that everyone gets access to, one at a time, and eventually... ta da. likely a huge piece of shit track

oh i just had a better idea.

why don't we really make this interesting... CReddick brought up, 'same vsts's' well in most softwares, logic, protools, ableton etc... you can save project bundles and share them with other users who have the same vsts as you.

why don't we do a sequencer TA production:

ableton users(5) vs logic users(5) vs reason users(5) vs cubase (5) etc, etc

We'll all start with the same track/remix parts and go nuts. maybe we can end all this stupid "this is clearly a better sequencer" or "this is clearly a better platform" with just a monthly competition. we'll vote on each others productions and on to the next thing.

is anyone interested in this?

eh... i don't think we need another sequencer battle... when we really know its all about the idiot using it.

I thought the collab idea would be fun. i've got the FTP server space and would be willing to moderate if folks are really interested.

If interested, reply saying so... and that will set the marching order of who gets to work next.

i'm interested but if you've ever worked on a track with someone in the same sequencer it makes life really easy. whatever though, i'm down to work with parts.

Why not just sample everything you do as wav files and include them in the bundle.

File size would become huge. Some of my projects are up to 1 GB large, with full bounced tracks.

These kind of things work best in Reason, everything can be self contained.

We could use just freeware synths like Synth1 etc?

rofl u dont bounce the full track, u bounce a 4/8/16 bar loop of each track... if theres automation it becomes a little trickier but still u dont bounce the entire track rofl.

idealy we could all use the same program and if you use a vst or plug in outside of the normal stock ones of the program you could bounce it. I think it would be alot easier to use standard vst's from logic or whatever program that way there is some flexiability to be able to edit the track slightly to allow additions

maybe we can all contribute a loop or two, and put them together. no synths or effects just loops

Sounds like a great idea; maybe this will spark some creativity in me. I am definitely interested. Sign me up.

By the way, I use Logic on PC and have most of the popular VSTs.

We would definitely need to designate one or two people to set some rules and guidelines as well as moderate everything.

There's no need to be an ass.
How do you think synths and pads with lots of delay and reverb will sound looped?
There's a reason why I bounce full tracks, other than me being stupid like you're trying to imply.

sometimes you bounce full tracks, sometimes just a loop...

Sounds interesting, but as others have said it would be quite difficult to manage.

Oh well, I'll give it a shot

So when are we starting? And more importantly, how?

Good old design-by-committee. None of us is as dumb as all of us...
