This is Music Production. A place to share anything and everything you want about your music making journey! Learning is the goal, so discussion is encouraged!

RIP Waveform.

Rules are as follows:

Don't share other people's music without commentary, analysis or questions. This is not a music discovery community.
No elitism or bigotry towards other people's music tastes. Be polite in disagreement.

I will update rules as necessary, but I promise we'll stay light on them and only add new ones after discussion!

Here are some useful examples of what a great post would be about:

(in no particular order)

Stuff you made/are making. Get valuable feedback and criticism!
Learning resources - videos, articles, posts on any topic concerning a production process, be it composition, sound design, sampling, mixing, mastering, DAW workflow or any other.
Free plugins, presets and samplepacks. Giveaways and self-made stuff included!
News about production software, releases and personalities.
Questions and general advice about music production.
Essays on your favorite productions. Inspirations and insights!
Your physical analog gear! Let us know how it performs!

Good to know: As a general word of caution, avoid posting complete compositions, mixes and tracks on the internet before backing them up on a remote and reputable server. Even small snippets or watermarked tracks should be posted AFTER backing it up to cloud. Timestamps from cloud services will help you in case of theft. And, as a public resource, lemmy is not a safe place to post your unpublished work, so please make sure your work is protected.

What happens when you apply a filter to all frequencies changing the "isolation"? (lemmy.world)

I assume that refers to how much is allowed to get thru the filter but it seems qualtatively distinct from simply raising or lowering the over gain of the track. There's something about it that makes things indiscrimately softer or something maybe?

What hardware/software is controlling this? Is it a plugin for a DAW? It sounds like a feature that is very specific to something custom or a setting for a common filter that was renamed to confuse people.

The term "Isolation" is typically used when separating out different instruments or vocals individually. (Rules for the meaning of words in music production can be very flexible though.)
