I dunno what frequency. It would depend on the individual vocal and the individual hihat. On most pop vocal tracks you want the vocal to be more in your face than the hihat, that's all.

yes but some of them are wrong. I am just being extremely subjective! By good taste, I don't mean "tasteful" like hotel lobby music or cream carpets. That's kind what I meant. The first two paragraphs of your post were a bit obvious and made me feel you hadn't grasped what I was saying at all...

Wrote a big reply and then it vanished. :( I was agreeing with Sherburne that it's valid to write a track starting with no ideas other than making sounds on machines, but I also think my most memorable tracks came from having a strong idea before I started. If you have a 3 day sound-design...

Then it would read "If you're any good you should be able to get sounds and write a track..." But surely even if you're shit you should be able to get SOME sounds and make A track. That would be virtually meaningless. What did you mean? I know what you want to say, but: Quality of a tune is...

If you're any good you should be able to get good sounds and write a good track in a couple of days.

Nice but i was really expecting him to shake up his locks at the end.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/7450728.stm Or am I missing something? Seems to be talking sense in a non-points-scoring way. I expect he will lose any bye-eection because it seems the majority of voters believe that they will be protected from terrorism by giving the govt. the right...

I love freestyle. A lot of people really hate it though... it can be risky to DJ unless the crowd is expecting it. Much easier in the USA where everyone knows stuff like Debbie Deb and it's childhood nostalgia. In the UK to the average punter it's cheesy old music but without the warm nostalgia...

Well yes, but I was responding to Nomos' complaint that he wished the students would support striking teachers and explained why it was unlikely to come about under the present system. Hmm, I'm not sure about this. I get a feeling it's a point of ideology for you but what's the evidence for...

oh someone just asked him, he says it was the piano disk for the SCI prophet 2000 sampler. so there you go.

Well I guess you and I differ on what education should be for and about. I don't understand, what's class got to do with it? I understand the desire to get money to have a comfortable life. But I think we differ in that I don't believe money is the root of all happiness or necessarily the...

Oh well if he HAS to come AFTER 8 then from the way you have specified the problem, the first period is just under 4 hours and the 2nd period is exactly 4 hours so the second period is longer and again there is no paradox.

What are the speakers? And do they have any info on the back like "8 ohms" or "4 ohms"? I have been using my hifi amp for years and I would think that any decent hifi amp would be fine. There's a lot of hifi and studio snobbery but if you're a sane person and you're DJing rather than mixing...

It IS depressing, you are right, but 100% to be expected because the education industry IS now a consumer industry. You pay lots of money for a piece of paper that is supposed to help you get a higher-paid job later. That is ALL it is now. Nobody gets a grant, very few people can afford to be...

I can't see anything paradoxical about this. You haven't answered the question - what if he comes at 8am. And time isn't necessarily infinitely divisble, particularly in terms of human thought. There's a minimum time it takes neurons to fire and the repair guy could arrive before they get the...

Am I a twat? I went and voted for mayor and there were two other London Assembly things to vote for. I didn't know who any of the people were, none of them or their supporters have called on me, sent me a leaflet, or approached me anywhere. I didn't know who to vote for so I left them blank. I...

I think you are misunderstanding me. I'm not saying he sampled it from someone else's record. I'm not suggesting he sampled the whole piano part. I'm saying it's not a real piano, it's a sampled piano preset in a ROM-based synth. For example it could be from the Roland U220, which Marshall...

Of course, I don't think he used a real piano.

your mileage may vary ie. that's what i think but it might be different for you

Yeah i noticed that and got excited but then I couldn't think of anything worth asking him. I mean I love the house music anthem and Hercules and all that but there's not much mysterious about the production and I reckon finding out which piano sample he used won't help me make a better...
