Eyup Seb, the huge obstacle for me isn’t creativity. Starting out recording everything digitally/rendered with a Virus TI2 I laid the groundwork for some great music. Productivity was high and I was loving life. It all fell apart when I tried to do the same with analog synths, particularly with software editors, it has become a nightmare. It seems Windows is flawed and going Mac isn’t stress free either. You seem to be achieving the impossible with iPads and Windows as live editing software. Multi-client software seems to be a big fib. Please spread the analog synth love by helping us lesser mortals actually get some music out.

No, you are completely right. Software editors for synths tend to be very buggy. I can never get the VST editors working properly, so I usually run the standalone editors alongside Cubase. The challenge with the iPads again is to get the wireless MIDI (rtpMIDI) working. When I start them up I always have to shut down and start up the system in a certain order, otherwise it won't work! If TI2 was working for you, then I would suggest you to go back to that. That is one reason why I still use Cubase 7.5, because I have everything working now and I don't want to do any changes that can risk that. So I would suggest use something that is working as a backbone for your work, and then you can add on top of that other synths and work slowly towards getting a larger system to work.

What is most amazing to me is that you can pick apart a tune and then work on ways to emulate each little element. I love this kind of music, but I'm no musician and I just hear the major parts without appreciating how they break down. When you say your computer isn't powerful enough at some point, it's proof that some human minds can exceed technical limits.

One of the things that I always found funny is how you choose voices because it sounds super cool, but when you mix it with the others, everything sucks, and then you try with another "not so cool" sound and the magic happens. A few legendary songs to me, just as suggestions: -No Tengo Tiempo (con los dedos de una mano), by Azul y Negro. -Nothing to Fear, by Depeche Mode. -Chronologie part 4, by JM Jarre (I always wanted the drums to be a little bit more punchy). Super interesting your cover breakdown videos. You are a wizard revealing your secrets.

The Mackie/Cubase comparisons at 35 minutes: I'm sure there's slightly more warmth in the mid range on the Mackie sections - a slightly thicker sound?

Thanks for the suggestion. However, there are already quite many synth repair videos online, so I don't think I can bring anything new. For instance, check out the videos by @markusfuller or @syntaur . Also, I'm not a service tech, so I don't want to give advice on repairs, as some of the methods I use may be flawed.

I lost count of the number of layers of filtering/processing steps you used in order to tame e.g. the hi-hat or to bring the bass where you wanted it. Is it easier to just add on another mastering pass, than to go back to the original tracks' recordings and tweak them once there?
@kebu 7 ай бұрын
I would have to rerecord the stems or submix, depending on at what stage I'm working, so yes, it's easier to fix what I have than rerecording, because I probably would get some other problem instead if I rerecorded it. It's the additional submixing step that made this a bit clumsy way of working, and the fact that I wasn't mixing through the master bus compressor.
@farche2 7 ай бұрын
@@kebu That makes sense to me, as if you r workflow means recording each stage of the mix/processing, then using that as an input to the next stage, and thereafter ignoring the earlier steps' recordings. It's not as though it were a software maintained dependency tree, where changing something in isolation at an input or configuration item could automatically recompute all the intermediate results all the way into the final audio track.
