Thanks for your definition! Sorry for naming a little application (app) helping me with music is not a music app but a toy program :) I will keep that in mind. And yes, it is helpful, because so far I didn't find a simple tempo tapper that wasn't packed with ads or loaded of unnecessary features from professionals! 😘

Ignore that troll. People are upset that AI actually has use cases for the ordinary person with NO coding skills that WILL replace the vast majority of programmers with this attitude. It is a music application, as it is used to tap the tempo, which they apparently don't understand.

Being someone that has worked with some of the largest companies in the world, this is a fantastic use of AI for the average person. Working recently with The largest advertising in the world...I heard several top executives practically warning all their Master level creators that those that don't learn to use AI tools WILL eventually be replaced by those who embrace using AI tools. Please keep your enthusiasm and "AI programming", as speaking from experience, those same people emphasized that plenty of people have " knowledge", as they expect, but fewer are those that are actually good, helpful and humble "people" and that is more important for their company.

Idk, it all looks kind of artificial (obviously) and low effort, especially the voice. Also it distracts from the music (depends on the genre of course). Not sure how I feel about all this. I'd probably just get some really cool art from a real artist and add animations to it in After Effects...
@AlexPfeffersAudioArtistRise28 күн бұрын
Of course, feel free to do whatever you want. If you go that route make sure to set up a big plan because it may take a few days until you get all the pieces together. Also make sure to not just get art but clarify that you have the permission to do so. Also keep in mind when creating daily content (which this automation is intended for) you will get into problems when working with real artists or you have to create a huge buffer. Basically there are no limits and no laws but I see my peps getting work in the industry by not thinking too much about recreating Hollywood but presenting their music in a bit of a different way. The style may look cheap to you but it is just one out of many that you can pick. You could go anime, cartoon or more fantasy sketch such as in WoW etc. But if you find great voiceover artists, work with visual artists and take some hours to create great content it is always the best thing to go with anyway. However, I can promise you by going this route you will probably get one piece of content done per week, if not ... less. PS: I have probably different data than you because the videos on the demo reels of my students get watched more (and therefore the music the potential client can listen to) than the actual music tracks presented as "just" music.

Thank you so much but tbh, nothing too special. Make sure you have a bit of memory (depends on how big your template is), that you got a few more CPU cores and SSD drives. Also you may want to pay attention to your buffer settings of your sound card and the buffer size of Kontakt for used instruments. This can all heavily influence your memory usage and workflow efficiency.

@AlexPfeffersAudioArtistRiseАй бұрын
What mixer do you suggest? What wokflow whn you work on 90 mins of a video game soundtrack and get constant reworks and edits? Do you stay in Midi or do you render it all to audio and then need to break up again?

@@AlexPfeffersAudioArtistRise Alex this was about actual musicians in a studio, not video games. I know it's old fashioned to have musicians come together in a studio but if they are in the same city, that's best. Use any old analog mixer, and then go straight to digital. If you can, make 2 digital masters simultaneously: 1) that's hi-res, and 2) at the bit rate that you'll actually be releasing. The sound quality might be the best you ever made :) I listened to some of your tracks on SoundCloud and there's way to much digital harshness for me. This harshness is the reason there's a resurgence in vinyl. So it does bother a lot of people. All these things may not apply to your work but I am sure you'll figure out a way so you *absolutely minimize* working in digital. If you work in digital, at the very end of it all, see if there's some software to reduce the digital harshness. If there is, I would definitely use that. Good luck.

@AlexPfeffersAudioArtistRiseАй бұрын
@@gracelosianiga9808 BT probably has a few remote machines as Tom Holkenborg does? If you are on a single machine it helps a bit but it is also a lot of fiddling around. I had a template with 1200 tracks using VEP but it was too much chaos, especially if you have instruments loaded into VEP but suddenly need additional stuff (externally loaded, set up busses etc vs internal additional instruments) The "better" solution at least for me is that I can set up a template within Cubase and technically have 5000 tracks without using that much memory if I disable the tracks and only enable the tracks I need with a single shortcut. The amount of loading time easily compensates the loading time of VEP in the very beginning. To make it short, with today's machines, the difference isn't really that much anymore. What I am currently doing is not care too much about templates at all. Import a bit of basic stuff that I always know I need and that's it. I am probably at roundabout 50-100 tracks and that's it. If I had huge templates, technically I only needed 20% of the stuff, 80% of the time. So I don't mind additionally loading or drag and drop important stuff that I only need 20% of the time.
