Tech Talk: Polygonia - Enviroment, Limitations and Acoustic Instruments (Electronic Beats TV)

[@TeddyBaas]

So great to see an actual artist who produces their own music and knows what they are talking about and is genuine, honest and not a pretender. We need to highlight more of these people than the social media DJs who haven’t opened a DAW in their life and play pretend on social media Djing other people’s music.

[@ElectronicBeatsTV]

As a DJ, you don't necessarily have to be able to produce and vice versa. These are two different things. Just sayin‘. Unfortunately, it has become a necessity to be able to do both. Respect to everyone in both top positions.

[@polygonia8301]

Thanks for your words! 🩷

[@TeddyBaas]

@ of course! I loved your video on echio! Would you be so kind to let me know what kind of chair that is? Im buying a new one and this one looks amazing 🤩

[@Nospoon777]

Very Inspirational!!!! What a joy to watch! Thank you for sharing your Artistic views with us!😎

[@AndiGee]

Please more from Polygonia. I could listen to her for hours. Such an inspiration!

[@darrellstrawberry]

This is super inspiring! You see so many producers with crazy expensive setups and its super refreshing to see someone so good just go in the box and make such great music

[@polygonia8301]

aw thank you! yeah it doesn't matter what you're using, the most important is a creative mind with some knowledge :)

[@Justin-TPG]

Exactly what I came here to say. Seeing rooms full of mixers and synths can be intimidating and overwhelming to a new producer looking to get started. This shows you don’t necessarily need to spend £X0,000 just to get noticed.

[@kablehead]

That's the first in-the-box producer presentation i actually liked. Good vibes.

[@polygonia8301]

aaw 🎈 great to read!

[@djhansiofficial]

This space is absolutely inspiring so full of light and life! The plants, the vibe…how would anyone ever leave this chair? I swear, future archaeologists would find my fossilized remains just chilling right here! Amazing sounds!

[@polygonia8301]

hahaha :D yeah it's the basis for all that I'm doing indeed. Love the anecdote as well haha

[@AndiGee]

[@jordantact7021]

For sure one of the most inspiring artists across the board right now with such a perfect attitude towards it all, always fresh and unique, always got that groove that just hooks you in from the get go and this intricate fluidity. This was a beautifully presented, fascinating insight into Polygonia's world. Thank you

[@polygonia8301]

Aw thank you so much! happy you enjoy my work

Lovely episode. Very talented and hard working artist , surrounded by a lovely collective 🌿 Wonna thank Electronic Beats for using the track "OvO" in this episode ❤

I have a question😇 Where can I get the meter tool she is using in this video(06:26)? Does anyone know where I can find it?

[@polygonia8301]

It is a software which my team and I at IO records are currently developing. It'll be out by the second half of 2025. :) We'll start posting more info soon on our insta and create a newsletter as well. Thanks for your interest!

Looks like a nice producing environment , she is very grounded and chill.

It's amazing how calm and zen her and her environment are, but then you hear her music and it melts your brain. More from her please!

[@naturarum]

incredible producer and talent. love the advice of getting the mix right early and working in arrangement view.

[@AboveTheTrees00]

I called it over three years ago: Lindsay would be one of the most talented and important music producers, and I was right.

[@XanderEwald]

Love her music! Also really want to know where to get that chair!

[@LORdXRaytHe1st]

Everytime I see polygonia featured anywhere I am just so happy. Such a wholesome human being, from the first track I heard I knew she would make it big. Also I need all tracks running in the Background wtf?

[@polygonia8301]

Aaw thank you! The tracks are all by me, these are the names: Cold Heat, OvO, Bold as Brass, Bloom :) Thanks for popping by to check the video

[@Clee3421]

Being in the opposite position with a cluttered creative space and too much hardware that I am torn on keeping, this video and her music is super inspiring!!! Also did not know about TDR Lim or Kelvin, will probably grab both of those. Very smart/zen process.

[@polygonia8301]

Thanks! happy that this inspired you. In the end, the result is what counts :))

[@TimDWorth]

Aww yas been waiting for the Polygonia edition! Hasn't disappointed. Can't wait to see you live, please come to Ireland soon!

Great interview - can totally relate to having a nice computer setup, sound, monitoring and environment. What is the spectrum analyser/oscilloscopes she is using?

It's an audio analyzing software which we are currently developing with our label IO. going to release next year :)

[@RollrightKnights]

Quick straw poll. Do you guys mix as you go or do you get your track all arranged, levels and balance done, then mix in a seperate session? Or something between the two? Personally I like to work fast and get things sounding nice as I go along, which inspires the track I'm making too.

[@balbibou]

Nice ! Hello TEB TV, add Loek Frey to your list please !

[@Erdna1234]

Anyone know when the program she talks about in the tools section will release?

in 2023 she said next year, it's november 2024 so probably...next year

[@romantio]

@@polygonia8301 hey Polygonia, great job!! can I ask you? You say that you use only Ableton, but I think stoor Amsterdam with speedy j and rrose you was playing with some hardware equipment, is it just controller for Ableton? Or some drum machines?

[@polygonia8301]

@@romantio It was Ableton, controlled by four akai midi mixes. For live sets I also always use the drum machine Drambo on the IPad next to Ableton, which I did for Stoor as well. Next to that I use another IPad with the Touchable pro app, it is my substitute for the Push as it works a bit faster for me. The other artists used hardware. But I don't use hardware in the studio or for live sets. The only hardware I use are two FX pedals (Reverb and Delay) when I DJ.

[@eento06]

Please include multi tracks capability for the oscilloscope and work well on the sync, then it's a no brainer multi meters that I would surely grab

[@polygonia8301]

what do you mean by multi tracks capability?

[@Hamishmcbeth]

Is that spectrum analyser out yet??

[@polygonia8301]

it will be out by the end of 2025 :)

[@lukeobrien3446]

Would love to see Roza terenzi on this!

[@ryft_music]

agree on the hardware thing! I feel a lot of people over-romanticize hardware because it's less accessible. The metering Dycide has been working on looks amazing, and the Tokyo Dawn Limiter is sooo good. I've also been trying to make a max for live device to process kicks but it's not done yet. Half your other favorite artists: 30 synths/drum machines circling entire studio; Polygonia: OPERATOR + plants XD

[@roteunke4022]

Very nice insight in how she does things. One of the most interesting artists for me at the moment. Very busy deejaying schedule also. 🫶🏻

[@elemunt-vb1gn]

i feel seen about working in the box, for me trying to wrestle both software and hardware at the same time is a major break in my flowstate, I don't want to put my keyboard and mouse away, get out my chair and unpack some kind of synth or keyboard or drum machine and get it set up to start recording in, in this way I can see the appeal in going completely dawless, but the mix of the two has always struck me as inefficient to productivity. its fairly easy to humanize anything in the daw nowadays too with either randomization of velocity and timings etc.

[@lowcust04]

Very cool Tech Nerd Women

[@oscarblack1661]

Love the mixing/ technical stuff whilst making the track. I cant understand why you it needs to be some big process after. Im not an engineer or anything but if it sounds right from the beginning, why go and change it after the fact.

[@ttttiiimmy10bit]

I can tell from her studio cat training alone that she is good at producing.

so can you then also develop audio software as a lazy gen z kid? not sure about that. But that's exactly what we're doing. A bit sad that you judge so fast though. I guess you don't know my work at all.
