thanks,,,it is also one of my all time fav songs. I will never forget hearing it when it came out,,,that driving synth sound.

Finished my remix so I can learn to use Ableton and Massive better. All tracks are by nme, except for vocal and the original riff.

thanks for the info. I am taking lessons on Ableton and as one of my few projects I am learning to do remixes. It will show more use of the software. So I always saw all these remixes on iTunes,CDs,etc. and wondered the law. The song I am doing is "Don't You Want Me" by The Human League. Fun to do i...

Hi,
I was wanting to know does the person remixing the song have to pay royalties or something? Or ask permission from the original artist? I see lots of remixes of stuff done from the 80s and wondered what they had to do.
I know it is probably a bunch of law stuff..but just an idea.

Thanks

Still have to mix, etc.

I was wondering if anyone has taken any of the synthesis courses online with the video tutorials?
I was looking at Sonic Academy's and Vespers.
I am better at watching than reading how it is made.

Great info !!!! I know te basics of theory...scales,rhythm, etc. Just picking the notes to match the chords in the scale I am using can take me a bit. I guess every chord progression has been done. So I am sticking to the classic ones first. Now when I get a melody in my head I will sing it into my ...

I was wondering how many people who make electronic music have a deep knowledge of music itself? Such as theory, scales etc. Or have some started with very little musical knowledge. And when I am working on a piece I can come up with the bass,pads and stuff. But ,have a problem with coming up with a...

Great info !!!! Thanks to all. I bought a Mac a year ago cause I heard how amazing they were. I was not using it for music, but as my regular computer. But it was slow and not and no fun to work with so I went back to PC. This time if I get one it will be solely for music and I will keep my PC for m...

Ok,,,I am looking t get a new computer just for my music. I have been a PC guy my whole life. Of course I hear from all my friends that a Mac is the way to go with music production. Is there really a difference in sound or anything between the two? I have used a MAc a couple times and was not sure. ...

Hey, Thanks for the feedback. I have not come up with a melody that I want to add which would make it much ore interesting and add variations of that. I was thinking of adding a very slow beginning with pads and have the drums slowly come in. I want to add more drama like you said. Just not sure wha...

I loved ELO, Styx and Klaatu in the late 70s. But Patrick Cowley sealed the deal with anything he recordrd.

Just wondering when did arpeggiators start showing up on synths? Did one brand start it all?

Thanks
