    not too keen on any in this round, only 1 i could really vote for.

    Multimillionaires with a vested monetised interest in promoting it to keep people feeding their pockets instead of growing themselves. Honestly, I expect the AI stuff to cause a hard swing to real stuff much in the same way the whole transgender thing forcing "right wing" politics

    Any of you use mix/master assistants?

    It's literally just a eq graph essentially, which shows the general ballpark of eq curve for predetermined genres. That's all it does. And, it can be useful for sure, but serves to this predefined concept of how a mix should sound. Obviously per record maybe tjis changes. And continuing on...

    Maybe we'll have a GTA2 style gang loyalty meter. So different companies depending on how they and you swing politically and morally gives you favorably or otherwise.

    Yeah they're doing away with physical games and making it digital only, so you can pay for a game and they can take away your right to play it any moment. What's worse... They have also introduced their new "dynamic pricing" which explicitly means... they'll use an algorithm to tell how much...

    Any of you use mix/master assistants?

    I also posed that question because sitting in on a session with my mentor he was using Ozone (because he needed to recreate/match an original mix but improve on it, and he could hear that ozone was likely used. And found a preset that pretty much matched the 2track... but when we were searching...

    Any of you use mix/master assistants?

    Yeah i pulled up tonal balance today on some of the mixes in battle that, and could see where people were off. I was off on one where i could tell my bass was over done, but didn't realise my low mids were under (the big low end gave illusion), applied some EQ and it levelled really nicely...

    With you 100 on these thoughts here. There's a sad thing too, that copyright adapts so frequently, and sometimes not for the best always, like copyright opened up to allow people to do covers because of youtube etc. Not entirely sure the ins and outs whether it needs to be monetised to the...

    Automation - do you automate ? how much ?

    in an Attila track, i have zero surprise to see automation like this, and I can imagine it would be just for a single hi hat hit.

    Any of you use mix/master assistants?

    Are any of you using mixing/mastering assistant tools or AI? (Basically things that you either chuck your music through or apply a preset to) This isn't about shame or discrediting, I'm curious at your thoughts and experiences with the results. What are your thoughts and opinions on them...

    My point is all ai songs sound like the same "uplifting pop record" just with a different voice or different instruments. Sound like they all have the same chord sequences and song structures.

    Like my first thought with AI was "I can get it to create an old soul record, then sample it, that way I can make boombap with no concern of copyright. There are other geniuses like me too, but I often find the sample carry the same feeling/formula as I described above. So I've personally...

    I used to wonder how people could "hear it" But since I've heard a few now, I often find there are certain sounds, movements, textures that are common throughout. And it sounds/feels a bit samey. So if someone unfortunately arrived there through normal means, ruff. For me, its like the ai has...

    Yeah those reasons are ones I usually come up against in warzone or beat this. I found my decisions quick this time tho. I tracked a few of entries, particularly the loud ones and analysed them in my DAW can see where shortfalls are and misbalances. Good practise for thinking about your own...
