For the 3rd time. If I use my keyboard to input notes, I don't HAVE to hear anything. I can mute my whole PC and still input the note properly, because latency doesn't effect midi input.
Damn dude, are you that ing stupid. You piece of . Go buy some skill so you can play unaffected by latency. You no skill wannabe musician. I'm getting tired of hearing your whiny bitchy . Welcome to the ignore bin mother ******.
People who think latency effects midi input, damn how can you be so stupid?
High latency doesn't have any effect on midi input, thus negate ANY negative part of using high latency, and on ANY sound card it only HELPS the % chance that there isn't going to be pops. You people and your limited ing capability piss me off. You need low latency so you can hear the sound, shut the up and learn to play with mute.
, I know people who write whole albums without even playing a ing instrument once. Because they have skill in composition and musicianship and they know what the they are doing, petty bull like latency doesn't hamper them from being able to write. AND play everything in a sequencer afterwards.
all of you.
Most of you are in the worst genera of music known to man, its also the easiest to make, and most of you can't even make a decent track in that, how do you expect to ever make REAL music? Expand your ing world, what tiesto said in some guide about latency is not the end all be all of what is truth. , I know people who use soundfonts and midi instruments only, and they make more quality than what you put out.
I mean come on, you have people struggling to COPY another artist. Struggling to find out which "daw" is the best [wtf] And of all things you want to argue on latency and wav files? Thats your whole scope? I mean you completely reject the idea of a music theory forum. Its like, you ing hate music. You just want to copy armin or some ASOT garbage. I'm sorry to crash your dreams, but this trance a lot of you make is no more music than my cats meow. Everyone talks this but has absolutely nothing of merit to show for it.
How petty can you get? All of this bull everyone talks about, and I am still able to produce tracks doing things my way, while most of you don't have a track to your name, trying to tell me how wrong I am. You.

Was that post confrontational enough for you? |

[/IMG] | I dont need to go down on your level, you have really sunk to the lowest.
KVR covers all my music theory needs btw.
The world is bigger than tranceaddict you know, no need to have everything in here. |

| There is more to the world than whether or not you freeze or bounce, or use low latency or high latency, and the fact is, both ways you go on either subject make less than 2% of a difference. Its just some people feel they need to argue. |

| Yeah great idea, lets play an INSTRUMENT WE CANT HEAR!! |

I can hear the sounds built into my keyboard fine.
I'm sorry you'er limited only to your VSTi.
Last two weeks on this site has been the most retarded thing Ive ever seen on the net. Ive talked to bigots more logical then you guys. |

You havent even given it a single thought.
You are like "hey freeze is cool, lets not check out anything else ever"
That is why you are unlikely to advance at anything, you think you know it all already. |

Using Audio is in whole, a step back in production. The only thing Cubase did that FL didn't is freeze mode, everything else Cubase did was compared to FL. The key editor was an atrocity. I would rather see a baby torn asunder by a semi truck, Than use the key editor in Cubase. Cubase crashed on loading most 3rd party vsti...so to say it has vsti support is laughable. Doing any kind of automation takes at least 40 more steps to get what you want. You have to use this ty menu and scroll through the thousands of parameters a synthesizer might have, and find the name of the one you want, in order to automate it. And 100% of the time, the parameters were named nothing like they were on the synthesizer. Many of them were literally "Param1 Param2 Param3..so you had to ing guess.. "Is this the cutoff for filter 3? "Is this the release for EG2?" Who the knows. Even chopping audio was atrocious. To do a simple slice required at least 14 mouse clicks.
And when cubase crashed, it broke my midi input. And my sound. I had to either reboot, or renable the sound processes via cmd window. And my midi is ing USB plug and play!!! How do you break that???
Cubase might have been good years ago, but now its just an old dog that is running on ty unstable code. This is why people use Pro-Tools instead.
FL8 deals with audio better than Cubase. Only downside to FL is its loop orientated, which can be remedied by changing how you use fl anyways, so meh. |

Btw, if im going to be nice and tell you how to automate.
1. Open the synthesizer
2. Press the W icon show it shows red
3. Press play and start moving the desired parameters
4. Press the W so it is not red
5. Then press R
Done! |

Press 3 to select the slicing tool, and then just left click on audio files where you want to slice. |

You can't do perfect automation that way. Man where do you get all these ideas for music production?
I don't do basic level automation. I need to do stuff the human hand simply cannot do perfectly. Same with the key editor. You can't just "open up and play" on your midi controller. Alot of the stuff is unplayable. Or in the least won't be on time, and I don't want to deal with crappy quantize . The notes have to be absolutely perfect the first time. So I put all the melodies in with the mosue, and in FL I can manipulate the notes in real time while the synth or song is playing. So while you sit and re-record everything hundreds of times, wasting time, trying to find the right melody pattern, I can do it in a fraction of the time.
I need to be able to do things with the mouse fast and efficiently. In Fl I simply left click *any* knob slider dial what ever, and click create automation clip, then I input the automation with the mouse. I don't have time to fiddle with doing take after take hoping the automation is perfectly landed. Nor do i have the patience to sit at a slider for 8 minutes doing automation. I can do loop based automation this way, graph automation, or attach it to another controller. In one click.
Be realistic. |

me, you talk so much ing rubbish. PLEASE SHUT UP FOR GOOD OF EVERYONE ON HERE.
I left this thread yesterday to have dinner and you've added about 9 pages of mindless, over opinionated and incorrect drivel.
And you realise it's not me alone that thinks you spout a lot of . I count 5 other people in this thread who also think this and it's not a conspiracy against noobs -just people who talk utter rubbish as if it's gospel.
Firstly when I left you were banging on about how the hell coupld any need 16 gigs because you'd be able to run 8 instances of crysis.
WHO GIVES A ABOUT COMPUTER GAMES PROCESSING - it has nothing to do with audio processing. The FPS benchmark is only found amongst game geeks and PC magazines, who don't know about audio. Ever seen it in and audio magazine as a relative benchmark? No.
Ever hear audio engineers talk about performance in terms of FPS? No.
It's virtually meaningless to the audio world as it's a measurement of performance relating cpu usage with video cards.
Any you wonder why people think you don't have a clue? It's like going to a car meet and saying "I bet that car go 40 knotts!, probably faster with the sails down".
Your using a inbuilt/plug and play soundcard - how the hell can you even comment on audio performance? Or audio drivers?
In fact over the last few pages there are literally DOZENS of things you are so off base on that I simply don't have time or want to go in to.
So I'll just use your last post as bull evidence:
Everything else cubase did was compared to FL....
......Cubase crashed on loading most 3rd party vsti...
......so to say it has vsti support is laughable.
......To do a simple slice required at least 14 mouse clicks.
......when cubase crashed, it broke my midi input
......Cubase might have been good years ago, but now its just an old dog that is running on ty unstable code.
ALL OF THIS IS USER ERROR: YOU'RE DOING IT WRONG (no wonder).
Try actually buying a cubase then properly learn how to use it (which is probably difficult for you which is why you love FL so much). Cubase is so much more advanced than FL - not saying you can't do the same thing, but arguably, cubase led the way and FL is still playing catchup.
Best of all though (you saved it for last):
This is why people use Pro-Tools instead.
Hate to break this to you but even though they're both audio programs their application is often completely different. Pro-tools is great for audio (far better implemented and more advanced than cubase) but cubase is light years ahead of PT in terms of midi.
You're comparing apples and oranges then saying oranges are better.
Have you ever even used protools?
You know what, you're certainly not stupid at all - you writewell and have some knowledge of computers, but do this forum a favor: don't tell people who've been doing this for a long time that it's raining while you're pissing on their leg.
You're a troll and you don't know it: until you do, you'll not be taken seriously - not because of me or anyone else's opinion, but because of yours... |

Wrong.
I wonder if I have mirrored you guys yet, guess I have to wait till Eddie comes back huh?
You guys are more hard headed than a bunch of Evangelists. You are all WAY over here talking about how I am wrong this and that blah blah and you are all missing the point.
Look at me, and realize this is what you guys sound like when you speak, only you all agree with each other so you don't notice it. And I am referring to the pointless accusations and randomly making up. Case in point, show me where I entered a thread, singled someone out, and told them they were stupid,wrong etc etc. How many times are you going to come into a thread and debate me for no reason and pull the thread into a flame war? Who cares if you think I am wrong. We are dealing with opinions on on an internet forum. Not facts. If you keep following me into threads [you know who you are] and tell me how my methods are e or what ever, for no ing reason at all. Then I will continue to be an ass. You want to correct me on something? Do like I do..I PM people because A they are less likely to argue and B it goes off topic. |
