Cant a person have an opinion about something without having to do better himself ?

Sidechain is nothing but an easy way of volume automation, i dont see it having anything to do with composition at all.

Of course they can, food critics are a great example. I myself critique plenty of beer but I'm terrible at making my own. I know what good beer is and I know that mine is not that. HOWEVER, critiquing should be done with an equal amount of effort as was put into the creation and DEAD_MOOSE failed at this.

dead_moose = Deadmau5???

http://www.inthemix.com.au/forum/sh...ad.php?t=264243

First check this link, its basically an aussie forum vs. deadmau5...

1. Dead_moose and Deadmau5 have similar writing styles...

2. Deadmau5 has been known to do this type of trickery...

3. It would all tie together???

My apologies to deadmau5/joel if this isnt correct... But im all for a conspiracy theory

Sure it does - it's not much different than tremelo. People have been using that for ages to enhance musical expression because it adds a rhythmic element to the instrument.

Sidechain's an effect, it's never alters the shape of the sound.

I do, just because I appreciate any kind of music (inc jazz, rock) and can value quality of it.

With my perspective on the music I always value quality, appreciate talent and emphasize hard work and dedication.

I don't critique anybody work, I only can suggest or advice if anybody is willing to take that advice, just because each of us have different perspective on the music and value different attributes of it.

Cheers and stay cool.

Maybe in the music producers forum, not in the production forum where we help each other out, as alanzo has done on many many occasions.
Its not for some complete fucking cretin to come in and start slagging off other peoples music unprovoked - do it in some other forum.

He was pointing that at moose, not alanzo

I hate the "well why don't you do better then?" argument. It's absolutely retarded.

All this talk about sidechain...my sequencer cant even freakin do sidechain, which is a great mixing tool and a luxury for those who can use it to mix.

I have to employ magic tricks from the brown cheese cloth bag for the aural form of the effect, yet still no ducking for the kick/bassline, since the sequencer I use is archaic and shit...but still useful.

ps: @OP if you dont like it, dont use it, and dont listen to music that uses it, instead of being a little bitch that complains about useful production techniques.


And like someone said, good music and sidechaining are not mutually exclusive.

He claimed to be a "critic" but thats obviously bullshit.

His intention was to make Alanzo look bad plain and simply which he failed at, because he went about it entirely in a desperate/tryhard manner.

Even the least classy of critics have the common sense to point out good parts of a track, or what an artist doesn't need to focus on. In fact, if I hear a track where EVERYTHING I hear I don't like, I will fabricate at least one bs detail for the purpose of not coming off like he did, and at the hope it will be taken as truely objective.

He only succeeding at looking like at a dumb stupid pos. Thats my critique of his posting abilities.

I agree. My point was that most of us in here are trying to make music and help each other out, not just randomly calling other members music as shit.
