Processing a highly structured and complex pattern of sensory input as a unified percept of "music" is probably one of the most elaborate features of the human brain.....understanding how music is perceived and how it may elicit intense sensations is far from being understood.

Agreed. I think a lot of the reason is because synths and effects are a much more sexy purchase than new monitors, room treatment or a new audio interface. It's easy to impress your friends with a "Look at my new keyboard" rather than a "look at my new monitors" or "look at my new audio interface, sitting in that rack over there". The average non producer person doesn't understand the value of those items, but they can look at a big keyboard and go "Oh, Cool!"

The problem is that you get so much bang for your buck with things like proper treatment, monitors and interfaces. If you are an EDM producer, you can have a JP8 sitting in your room, but if you can't use it properly in the context of a finished product, then what's the point?

Yeah, I agree. The amount of piling on that happens in his threads is really disproportionate and unnecessary, if you ask me (which, nobody did, so maybe I'll just shut my piehole now ).

Just to see one person speak on my behalf really means a lot honestly. And there was more then that so thanks whoever stuck up for me.

Kit: I hear you loud and clear. But my simple question to you is "WHAT IS THE BIG EFFN DEAL if I complain?".

I wasn't even really complaining, I asked a pretty simple question and got some useful feedback. The process of learning and experimenting is not the same from person to person. I come here and post when I'm having issues with specific things, maybe you don't need to do that, but the simple fact that you are bitching about ME BITCHING just capitalizes on the fact that you have nothing else better to do.

You're doing the SAME EXACT thing I am in the end, you are bitching. Everyone does it, and I cant understand why it even bothers you that much that someone else has problems producing. It should make you FEEL BETTER if anything, seriously. And so what if I do it every week? I usually mix everyday so one question a week is not a big deal to me. I could ask 10 new questions an hour realistically but I don't.

In reference to proper treatment (think sonic mentioned that), no I do not have any treatment. That doesn't mean I'm ignorant to the concept though (before people jump on me for that too). 2 weeks ago I was watching a youtube tut on homemade bass traps. I do realize the importance of treatment (beyond just youtube & bass traps lol), but obviously not to the degree as someone who already has and uses them. And believe it or not that was going to be ANOTHER THREAD I wanted to make here, but I didn't. I just wanted to see if you guys thought they were truely affective, but reading through the comments on youtube made me believe its a perfectly legit way of doing it.

The thing that I CAN NOT understand for the life of me, is how retarded some people must be here who get on me all the time.

I'm not even sure some of you guys understand how much I ultimately LOOK UP TO YOU people in the end. Thats what saddens me. When I have a question that genuinely confuses me, I think "well this will prob be like learning abcs for the crazy bastards over at TA", (smart crazy bastards) and I come here almost like a student to his teachers. If you don't want the role of a teacher, thats understandable. But whats not understandable is some of the attitudes I get to deal with.

I continually get into it with Richie V at least once a week, but he still KNOWS I look up to him, (which is why I think he still helps me cause he does realize that fact) AND Digi, AND Cryo, ..Sonic .. Beatflux, Eric J, DJ Rann, and even sometimes Kit =] (I'm just kidding man I know you know your shit as good as anyone else). But before I gay out this thread anymore with ass kissing, all I want to say is thanks.
Perhaps I DO ask too many questions. Its cool, there was many years I produced perfectly fine before I ever joined here. So its no issue either way. If I bother you that much Kit what can I really say? "Sorry for asking questions"? Idk, if I need to go crawl under a rock for a few months and just produce its not a big deal.. I'll manage.

I agree, quite frankly.

I've made many posts on this forum in many different threads, including Robby's, to the effect of "you need to rethink your overall approach / change your perspective" without turning the discussion into a complete shitshow. I don't think it's so much to ask for a little tact. Posts such as "STFU with your crap" or "retarded Robby thread" really don't add anything to the discussion - there's such a thing as constructive criticism.

Robby didn't say what kind of monitors he had - or maybe I just wasn't paying attention. Either way, if he does have garbage monitors it could very well be part of the problem. One time I didn't realize I had accidentally turned my sub off, and finished about 3/4 of a track that turned out like absolute shit; I had to redo the whole thing when I realized my mistake. I'm not saying everybody needs a pair of $5000 monitors, but at the cheapest end of the spectrum, like say, a laptop speaker, it can really hinder your ability to make a track sound halfway decent.


Now can we please get back to talking about claps.

lol it all makes sense now

the alcohol
the thread with the kick

And I don't mind Robby . He is a regular so as far as i'm concerned he is allowed his say. And I can be a dick when it comes to music.
