Throwing a block of cheese at a producer/dj while performing...Favorite Oscillator? (pg. 4)
View this Thread in Original format

I can understand the fustration of seeing Dj's playing "cheese" compared to when starting out the hunger was there (for the music not cheese lol) and the "cheese" wasnt.

That said, they have done good for the industry along the way despite the disappointment that can happen. But agreed I wouldnt like to throw anything at a DJ. Being one myself I'd hate that to happen to me. I think not turning up at all to any of their gigs & showing no support is a far more insulting.

Although Tiesto is in my opinion can be cheesey, its fustrating but couldnt throw anything. I've never liked Armin as a DJ His sets that is) and have always regarded him as cheesey but respect what he is doing.

As for Osc's. I like The malstrom's in Reason.

Just talking theory here....i doubt that exists although im sure some nut has made one


Theres many such synths. Theres a waldorf one, and I think Dave Smith's poly evolver has analogue filters as well.

I really don't see the point of this thread. I think you need to think before you post a bit more perhaps :wtf:

WOULD? No.
COULD? Yes.

If you took an Arturia oscillator algorithm and put it on a micro-controller, I don't think most people could distinguish it from the real thing. However, there aren't any digital hardware manufacturers that aim to replicate vintage hardware as closely as Arturia etc. For instance, it's a pretty well accepted fact that Viruses have piss weak oscillators.

In the area of analog emulation, I think software is a fair way ahead of digital hardware. Micro-controllers are quite prohibitive in terms of processing power and just general ease of development.

Anyway, point is, oscillators are a much smaller piece of the pie than most people think. Modeling filters and other effects is a hell of a lot more complicated, as there are many more variables. Seriously, all an oscillator needs to do is output a wave at a certain frequency and amplitude lol.

DCOs plus VCF can still sound great. Juno 6 / 60 / 106 for example.

Surprised this has never happened before. I was very close to doing this to Tiesto around 4 years ago. Would have been easier then as now everybody "DJ's" on a computer which provides a small shield. Precision is key.

Who would you throw your block of cheese at? (They don't have to play cheesy music, you can hate them ala Deadmau5)

I would take mine, compound it into the hardest ball i could, and throw a fast ball directly to the head of AVB.




And just so this is a production related post, what are your favorite oscillators? (which synth can they be found?)


so let me get this right you would travel the whole way to a AVB gig...pay in... wait til 12 or 2 til he came on then throw a piece..block of cheese at him. I have some advice for you write a track the way you think trance should be written and hand it to him.

the man wrote communication....precious.... blue fear. he is an artist and he has to evolve to stay fresh and on top. i am not a fan of him by the way but i respect him for some of the early tracks he has written. people like you annoy me cau all you can do is bitch and moan. WRITE SOME TRANCE INSTEAD

I to thought the same, its best to produce good music to combat what ever your annoyed about and get it out there. And also prefer his older material, respect to blue fear and communication.

My apologies Steven but Isrefel is right. Music is individual. I don't like Armin's stuff these days and obviously same with Tiesto. My dislike for Armin is more for his owning and managing Armada (he floods the industry and thus reduces worth of individual tracks). But both of them when they first started had amazing productions (whether they made them or not). Both have been lackluster imo as far as their dj sets go.

Damn....You really thought that out......Question obviously flew right by you as you can't see the metaphor of it all, although I can't deny that I wouldn't do it if the opportunity was there. (Driving to the gig, paying to get in????...lol?) That clown and several others will never see a penny from me. I'm actually taking some of these jokers good signs (there arn't many) and giving them justice. :stongue:
