dbR - Mine too

this is the first post i've read

Actually, mine too. It might "sound" mean, but it's Great. Not only for Newbies but those people that don't take Music Seriously.
 
Thank YOU BigbrotherMotown for THIS GREAT advice. I will USE it to the best OF my ability and CONSULT this THREAD OFTEN.
 
good evening -

i'm a Newbie. I certainly appreciated the commandments, especially "protect thy hearing". Every time I create a new beat, I burn it and blast it in the car. I will exercise caution in the future.

Thanks for all of this very good information.

Very nice! It all makes sense and will really help me in my journey as well as others I'm sure.
 
new ??

can someone whos been on here a while plz tell me what the tenth one was again lol dont worry if we newbies do get better than you it might take a while so just enjoy your day in the sun and when the times right bow out gracefully pmsl
 
This is the first thread I have read on this site, and after reading it, I decided to join futureproducers.com to post my first reply.

Thank you for this information and for truly trying to help us newbies. After reading your first commandment I read the entire article on Wikipedia about MIDI. I wouldn't have done that without your most helpful advice.

Thank you again and I will do my best to abide by these commandments from here on in. Peace
 
These are some well needed words of knowledge you should post it on a couple more forums.
 
perfect... also read up on the history of electronic music making instruments, from the late 70's with the first poly analogs that allowed you to store patches (!!), to the first digital samplers in the early 80's, to the beginnings of MIDI in 1983, to the first synths that began using sampled attack transiets (D-50), to the first "workstation synths" (M-1) and how multi-timbral features allowed artists to really begin producing whole tracks/songs in their bedroom... really on an overall level things didn't change much through the 90's with the exception of the VA synth and of course more polyphony, etc. - however what *really* changed things was Cubase VST by the mid to late 90's. so read up on how computers and DAWs began to come into play... and definitely read up on subtractive synthesis, sampling, MIDI, digital recording techniques (audio engineering), etc. - there are some really great resources on the net (google is your friend). then, at the end of the day, think outside the box and don't do everything the way everyone else does it!!! experiement!
