Hi there,

 

thanks for your tips. I have gotten the albino 3 and of course I took a look at the cosmosis bank, wanted to do it myself, figured it out, I am getting there.

 

Thanks for the tip

Hi there,

 

I am currently getting to know FM Synthesis with my newly purchased FM8 (A blast of a synth). I still can't quite get my head around it completely I am trying to do this very standard Psy FM Sound.

 

Every track I've listened to contains it, but I can't quite figure out how to get there. I guess best to describe it is as that metallic sawish lead. It's static no pitch envelope is obvious. I just don't know what modulator and carrier ist best for that.

 

Maybe some can help.

The sound can be found in any of Tristan's tracks on the Chemisphere Album.

 

I know this is not much of a description maybe you'll know what I mean...if not I apologize

 

Thanks already

[what monitors do you use?]

I'm running on the smallest ones of KRK Rokit Kits.

 

Just love the sound of them and know it quite well. Given the fact I make music in our appartment I can't turn up volumes anyway. Besides they sound awesome on movie scores which I do besides making trance music.

[money is not an isuee.......]

I do get the advantages of Protools when recording bands or acts as the audio sequencing is just where pro tools shines and it makes for a good portability between studios, but when it comes to Midi sequencing I just can't find myself being able to comfortably work in protools.

 

I have tried but somehow just doesn't grab me. I've tried Tracktion, Logic (in the old days) and Sonar as well, I am the most comfortable in cubase.

 

You have to try out what suits you best and compare the surroundings (Plugins etc) that you get in comparison to what you really are producing.

 

There is no wrong choice of sequencer, best tunes were still made with atari ST or before simple Trackers on Amiga.

 

Kudos to Chris Huelsbeck I say :-)

[Anyone knows of a good sample slicer?]

hi there,

 

always depends on what you are after. Take a look at audio damages Replicant:

This might be something you are after, and if not there is always Buffer Override (Freeware) which is hard to use but you can get beautiful results with it:

I guess I should write a book 'Ways to myself - Or how to know what you have been doing?'

 

Do not laugh

[Hello, I'm new...]

eh? took me a while to figure out why you guyz could download the track as I thought I removed last nite. Must have been tired, made some mistake with my ftp config. Track now is removed in order to rework it.

 

Thanks everyone for their kind feedback. My first attempt at psy and such a huge response, fantastic.

 

Until later

[Hello, I'm new...]

Will return the file to the server around tomorrow evening.

 

Boooaaah yeeeah awesome you guyz like it that much. ;-)

Until then I hope

[Hello, I'm new...]

hi there,

 

so here goes the lenghtened and finished version. I tried cutting the reverb a bit and made it longer. The track is now called 8 Minutes.

Hope you still like it, anxious to get feedback.

 

Best regards,

[Groovy morning full-on]

Hi there,

 

really like it, nice sound. Dig the distorted arp in the beginning. The Vocal is nicely put. The lead in the second part of the theme which is highly modulate just kind of takes downs your groove you've so beautifully created before.

 

Then I do miss another instrument in it playing another sequence, but this is just my impression, I am not that well known to psytrance.

 

Like it, specially the Kick Bassline Mixing is very good.

 

mach witer so...

[Looking for tracks for 3 compilations.]

Hi Nemo,

 

sounds great, always refreshing to see people take a more social and community like approach to music business.

 

I will definitely be sending that one track when its finished, maybe it's something that would suit your labels rooster, maybe not

 

Anyway, keep up the good work

 

Oliver

[Hello, I'm new...]

Hi there,

 

I'll finish the version with the speed set as it is and will then check if the arps work aswell as they do with this speed and post an alternative version

 

I guess I should definitely spend more time doing psytrance..awesome

[Hello, I'm new...]

Hi there,

 

thanks for the compliments and feedback toza. Yeah it could do faster. Thats what one of my colleagues said as well.

Will try to speed it up a little as well, don't know if it works with the main arps for the second theme. We'll see.

 

Great community by the way, appreciate your kind words and the constructive feedback.

 

Til later

 

Oliver

[Hello, I'm new...]

Hi there,

 

wow, I'm stunned, thanks so much for the response Nemo and Reger.

 

@Nemo

 

Will try to do so in the days to come, definitely will let you know when its done.

 

Thanks again for the compliments, still amazed...have not expected such reactions

[Hello, I'm new...]

This sounds wicked! There is a bit too much reverb sometimes I get the feeling, but this is the kind of "GOA" that I would like to hear more of! Is this track 100% finished?!

Hi there,

 

wow that's fast... thanks for your answer Nemo.

 

Yeah definitely I overdid with that. Well not really, its basically an unofficial Demo for 2 Nexus Expansions so Arrangment wise I did not do anytricks as this should just show what the sounds can be used for.

 

I may be overworking it though, currently looking to extent my setup with a FM Synth as I don't really have a good one, looking at FM8. I just did this track as I got tired of my other trance stuff, to free up a little and I must say I really like that sound.

 

So glad you liked it.

Hello there,

 

I am totally new to this community and thus my profile and avatar settings look awful

 

I'm living in Switzerland, my name is Oliver and I have been making music for quite some time now, trance music that is.

Always was interested in doing Psytrance so along the way I tried several times but with not so great outcomes.

 

If you'd like you can listen to my newest Psy effort, I'd be glad to get some feedback on it, I am sure I can improve and learn plenty of things.

 

Here is the link: 21

 

So thanks already for your efforts.

Oliver
