Music Production
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 And, as a public resource, lemmy is not a safe place to post your unpublished work, so please make sure your work is protected.

Glad it helped! I think we as producers tend to forget sometimes that behind every plugin we use there are hundreds of different algorithms doing different things with waveforms and digital representation of sound, since we only care about what we see and hear and that seems intuitive to us. Sound is physics and psychology and building incredibly complex things is only possible when you understand everything that goes on behind the scenes. Though you do have to pratice too... which is often more difficult than the theory, lol
