  1. There is lots of misinformation about Behringer with specific models Please note: The Only Behringer devices that work with Behringer own dedicated ASIO for win 10 and 11 is UMC202 204 404 and 1820 and the HD Models. You have to download the UMC interface software panel ASIO 5.51.0 update. These are the latest drivers with no issues , no other driver is not supported. I have a friend that uses the 204 which i know works and i use the 1820. It is setup in 3 parts, the ASIO Driver the WDM (WASAOPI) driver and the MIDI driver. However the MIDI driver does not work on the UMC 202 or the UMC 202 HD This is the only dedicated driver from Behringer that works with cakewalk stable that i am aware of.
  2. The "first" Midi Daw ever that everyone copied is the reality. Steinburg pretty much ripped Cakewalk and called it Cubase. Makes me laugh when people using other DAWs "believe" Cakewalk is for beginner's when they are using DAWs that called a bus a group, they be calling it mix group instead of mix bus next lol Cakewalk is one of the best things in my life, is the reality https://whoisp.co.uk/product/cakewalk/Black
  3. yes ive made it into about a 4min track
  4. It is eye P lol ive been trying some thing with my voice to a funky dance track im trying to do. Taking time as i am creating lots of samples, I animated one of my t Shirt designs just to see what i could do. Probably finished it next weekend maybe
  5. 30sec Demo, Like on YouTube if you can, helps the algorithm's - This is something i am working on. i was singing down an octave, then i speeded it up with some, then a tad pitch shift and loads of tape saturation with smidge of vocoder...
  6. Not sure how engineers did things without reference tracks, oh they used their ears and meters. People tend to make things way to difficult. Mastering - Reference track Bounce your mix "mixdown" aka your pre master 24bit 48khz wav is commonly use. This should have no errors to fix in mastering, realistically is should sound how you want it from putting it through a mix bus. Mastering is just polish and loudness. Open your mastering session, and import your pre master "mixdown". Add another track for your Reference track which should be of the same(ish) style "professionally mastered" so your in the rough ball park for 'Loudness Units Full Scale' (lufs) for Film score or CD or Digital distribution etc. I personally would test any Reference track as it could be two loud or two quite!!!!!! Therefore, a target loudness of -12 to -9 LUFS would bring you up to traditional CD levels but Spotify is -14 and YouTube say aim for -13 to -15 LUFS . Me personally i never "peak" over -10 so the average maybe -12 to -14 depending on dynamics and style. You will never go wrong with that information. Stereo & Mono Low end Sub and bass is better on mono for majority of tracks, HOWEVER some tracks need a certain creative edge with space down the middle so you might have bass stereo to create the space, aka Massive Attack - Angel rings some bells and plenty more. WHENEVER you RECORD something with natural spatial qualities that you want to reproduce in your mix it should be stereo, stereo recording works well on acoustic guitar, Orchestic, and even drums. Well in fact, freeze your midi and see what happens STEREO. Pros, tend to RECORD bass guitar, guitars and vocals on mono but "samples" with vocals will be on stereo due to added spatial qualities. However pros may duplicate the MONO guitar track and stick one 100% left and one 100% right for width and eq them slightly different for that spatial dynamic AKA there are no rules its about what sounds good and the same with panning. If your mix sounds good to your ears in headphones and speakers they you panning is OK but you might play with panning to create space the same as eq. You will hear many wives tails and the pretentious muso talk, its best to keep it simple about forming a UNDERSTANDING so you KNOW what your doing so yuou can evolve and not go round in circles P
  7. I think of all my instruments and plugins as tools. To be fair many midi plugins instruments you can layer. I layer with SynthMaster 2 and it as a massive library you can expand or create your own. I will create sounds on my Fender strat or bass guitar to sample them SM2, you can have up to four layers of samples if you want to or mix and match samples with any other type of synthesis you want so it makes it super powerful and i would imagine EZ the same. When you can create the sounds you want it cheaper but can be time consuming to learn sound design and know what mods and filter really can do. i will use Addictive keys because the piano is second to none. But like you say, i will dabble with like Spitefire Labs, Symphony Orchrstra, Vital, Izotope, Union, Kontakt and Surge XT etc for inspiration from sounds, its just ive note used EZ when ive not ever used much i already have but get what you mean
  8. Never used it, like my addictive drums (paid) and addictive keys i got free with my Novation controller and i use the paid version of synthmaster that i use the novation to control the automation so i wont chance it as it was a balls ache to set up my controller. There is so many plugins out there. Iv'e got a few other freebies and all do the job. I try to concentrate on writing there days, its so easy to chase your tail with plugins.

    The Day Will Come

    Sometimes the simple things work best, this song im working on at the moment is super complicated haha i'm having problems with mixing space etc

    The Day Will Come

    Cheers Guys, next one im doing something bit different, im creating many sample's to do a bit of funky dance
  11. Love this, great creative video too. That takes some work. I knock my videos up fast because it would take me a years to do something like this lol
  12. Super professional job, loved the intro, great build into the chorus, more than ordinary lol
  13. Fantastic production and mix.
  14. Love it, i can see the marine biologists now getting over excited in the labs
  15. Did you separate with a symphony orchestra bus? I always find when you pan symphony orchestra left or right you mess up the overhaul orchestra natural pan which is all round you coming at you everywhere and sometimes good to sit the guitars in it in sections. Nice clean mix, the bass keeps keeps pushing, the vocal is fantastic and lyrics. Maybe there is something missing in the intro, i think it needs guitar.

    The Day Will Come

    Yes it's in time, i broke it in half to do a outro, the drum fills started on the end of the riff note so it gives it a bit of an illusion or possibly your internet had a little moment. Iv'e had to relisten to things at times. Programming fills though is time consuming. Im do a intro at the moment and i just can't get something simple right lol

    The Day Will Come

    Cheers Nigel im really stuck on a track at the moment and don't know what to do. Its quite funky but the progression sort of takes it away from the funky vibe
  18. So once they find a comfortable level they jump round frequencies then start turning nit down by 10 or 5 db at a time?
  19. ive got appointment on the 9th lol
  20. Hi Guys Is there anyone that's had a Audiology hearing test? What db do they start with, how the test work? is it the frequencies you can't hear when they turn the loudness down The chart saying serve hearing loss on the higher frequency is 80db, which makes sense. listening to stuff 6000 Hz and higher at 80db would causes damage but i was interested how they do the test to measure this, given it would need to be the opposite, turning things down until you can't hear. So i would assume they start at a level and frequency and go lower until you cant hear ?

    The Day Will Come

    The Day Will Come

    Its funny you say that, i did go into a solo at 2:08 which is like the part at 3:10 but i didn't like it, it didn't sort of fit my theme. I then just wanted to then finish the song and move on to something else instead of leaving it unfished but it helped me finish my templates and updates
