(Work In Progess: Incomplete)

4/22/2012: BETA/FINAL

10/12/2012(12:38AM NYC): pretty much final

V.1.0 drop concept thought up but want to flesh out more.

V. 1.01 made some droid and laser FXs, made an opener, but still wanting to flesh that out more, added some lasers to the alien section...more to come.

V. 1.02 thinking of how many measure needed for a warm up/build up, a high point past the drop, anonther warm up/build up, cool down, and realizing the the opener can also be a closer, that gave me saved time. i pretty much have a frame to work from, so given some time, I should have a full track.

V. 1.03 haha, talk about a freakshow wobble, this Heisenburg synth is pretty new to me but I think I made it work as an opener/closer piece. I may just use it in a small sense until I learn more about it, but wow did the update make it worth waiting through. Also, the length of the song is probably what I want for now. Now to stop beating around the bush and flesh out "verses" and such.

V. 1.04 made it moe deep space like, added a scenario w some library found vocals. I don't know if I will keep it like this overall, but it will do nicely for now. Also, playing the track in its pieces is becoming tough on my desktop, which sucks, but I'm happy to play with the new synth. The new stuff, it's very functional, no doubt about.

1.04r2 came back to audiotool, if only for a small while, listened to the track and heard some mistakes in some of my ending wobs. they did not match, and I found that my levels were off a big bit. sorry for a few weeks of bad wobs. :(

10/12/2012:

After leaving this song for quite a while, i chose to come back to the track with fresh ears, haven't heard this track in a good while. I come back and realized, "...OH MY GAWD!!! the levels!!!" I wanted a little bit of loud, but the first clap almost wrecked my eardrums, so the levels should seem more 'listenable'.

  • I appreciate the input, making the song was fun. I'm glad I can share it w/ ppl.

  • not bad, the wobbles were nice and the beat great :D

  • Welll FINALLY my track's waveform came through...took too long :'(

  • Well this sucks, all I am getting since I added in the Heisenburg synth is this "Processing Waveform" crap. the only way people can hear it now is if they open the track.(**WARNING: the OPENING/CLOSING sections of the song may be a heavy processing task on the pc, causing possible freezes. This is due to how the new synth was used. **)

  • it still remains on the table!

  • I got an empty pulvi holding a spot for it now. In fact, the lasers can be used to break up the sample a bit, so I'm not relying on the full piece. If only Audiotool can be offline acessable too, just with out the library of samples and be syncable.

  • haha, if time and work will allow me to even do so wthout too much loss in sleep. Ill have to pass on the offer for now but hopefully the offer can remain on the table, and thanks for your input. any critique/aid/advise is always put into consideration...especially the laser.

  • hey, if you wanted to email me dsh_o5 @yahoo .com i think we could get an account set up for you and i to use, one goes in a makes a draft the other come's in and does the second draft the other does the 3rd and so on!! if you wanted to, i think we would be a good project! i dig your style

  • i think if your drop had a bunch of unearthy laser sounds to it would make it awesome!!

  • i would say they are right!! i can't wait to here the complete version of this song!! thing i love about critics are they help you build your song lol

  • If pros like ABADDON and ntjon say that I have some potential in my style, then I want to bring skills in sample use and individual use to higher levels. I like putting a smile to faces, and nods to their skulls. It's fun!!! 8D

  • Some of the intermediately/highly skilled and a couple pros (which gave me a surprise) seem to like how I play with samples, so it's really how well one can break the rules involving samples and loops that makes a track decent.

  • Also I have been trying my hand at FL Studios to make tracks and samples there. I mean, why not pool in something for someone here on Audiotool to use. I'm new at FL Studios, but in time i may be a contributor, too. It sounds kinda cool to see people throw their taste on any amount of a sample I can give to them, even if its the full sample.

  • Okay, cool. I'll look in on it. I usually think of the drop or the open, then build a frame around it, so it is like an open, drop, middle, drop (mid/drop 2x if the feel works), closer. plus I usually don't use full loops, unless I tweak it, or the song works better with me not messing w/ it. or my PC is not able to handle recreating an altered version. That way the alteration can be modded a lot easier.

  • okay i got it, have you heard the song dubstep tutorial?? listen to that and maybe that can help you with it, it just all seem's to be in the same tune. drop it bring it up ad drop it again if you know what im saying. im not very good at it either but i know what i like to hear haha
