Re: Did I inspire Jean Michel Jarre? :O

Made some progress, by putting an LFO on the triple hit snares. :P Now I will look for places were I can leave them out. Also found a few notes in the arpeggio part, which should not be there. Tried some frequency cutting, and I think that helped too. Also wondering about something drastic. Taking o...

Re: Did I inspire Jean Michel Jarre? :O

"more balls" Not sure what that means, some sort of instrument? Tubular balls? Lol at tubular balls. :) I am not 100% sure, but I think he means a bit more stuff happening, so more sounds / effects. Just a little bit though. He also said I should not change the track much. A lot of edm do...

Re: Did I inspire Jean Michel Jarre? :O

Last night had a look with a spectrum analyzer. Two synthesizers might be fighting each other, this could explain the mixing issue I have with the background chord sound and the arpeggio. Last night also failed horrible at trying to fix the triple hit, but never give up never surrender. :) Tried add...

Re: Did I inspire Jean Michel Jarre? :O

I just got feedback on discord too. I can say, it works! And keeps playing in my head (to say so). What do you think, having some more "balls" in the mix, a little bit here 'n' there? Just my thoughts, if not ok then ignore my thoughts, it is pretty good anyway unless you still want to imp...

Re: Did I inspire Jean Michel Jarre? :O

Interesting gonna have a listen to that.

To me it feels I am damn close to a hit but something is killing it.

It can be the triple hi hat.

Its 1,2,3,4 were the 1 is left out.
Gonna try something more basic. :D

Re: Did I inspire Jean Michel Jarre? :O

For now the final version. What I do like is the double rhythm in the melody. There is an arpeggio, but the highest notes jumps a bit. The distance to this note is bigger then the distance between the other notes. Causing this note to stand out more. Giving it a bit of an after touch sound ? Hard to...

Re: Did I inspire Jean Michel Jarre? :O

Making progress.

Not really happy about my intro yet, but deleting some parts should fix this.

Then my track will also have the "right" length. :D

Re: LMMS can't find Vestige (Geekos)

I just tried Geekos update again, and this time LMMS was in the list of things to update.

Then I started LMMS and all is fine again. :)

My first gold record can't be far away now :wink:

Geekos gives me a newer LMMS version though, so I probably need help from the geekos friends.

Newer than 1.3.0-alpha.1 which is available from lmms.io?

Not as far as I understand things, that's the same version. :)

Re: LMMS can't find Vestige (Geekos)

Thanks for the report. LMMS build (in GeekosDAW repo) should be fixed now. Thank you and that was fast. I am gonna run Geekos update. :) Edit, its not fixed yet but I am gonna wait a bit. Maybe the repository needs to catch up. Edit: Just like to add, before I was using Geekos Daw, I was regular ta...

Re: Did I inspire Jean Michel Jarre? :O

Track is currently 5m50 sec. Might want to make a tad shorter. Most beatles hits only were around 2 and half minutes. :P Just cut all repetitions. Or, listen to your track over and over: there's bound to be something there that starts to annoy you at some point. Cut that out and enjoy a better song...

Re: LMMS can't find Vestige (Geekos)

Interesting, I just started LMMS from the appimagefile and Vestige is there. :)

Geekos gives me a newer LMMS version though, so I probably need help from the geekos friends.

It's a music production repository for openSUSE.

Re: Did I inspire Jean Michel Jarre? :O

Somebody did a Pink Floyd intro in LMMS. https://soundcloud.com/neilbgr/shine-on-you-crazy-diamond I was totally in shock this is possible with LMMS. Three layered instances of zasfx. But I am having a problem. LMMS says it can't find Vestige. I did an opensuse update yesterday, and I wonder if this...

Re: Did I inspire Jean Michel Jarre? :O

Progress

I have an intro now.

Its a string part that was already there, backed up by another synth.

Not yet the arpeggio notes.

Track is currently 5m50 sec.

Might want to make a tad shorter. Most beatles hits only were around 2 and half minutes. :P
