A Stupid Decision (?), Mixing, and Possible Drumstep Song

Posted by BlueAlpha14 - November 26th, 2016


Hey NG, I hope you had a great Thanksgiving (to those who celebrate it). Mine was actually better than expected. Of course, what's Thanksgiving without doing something completely dumb?

Yep, that's Massive. It's not cracked either, I legit bought it. Now, I'm not sure how good of a decision this is. I kinda regret buying it, mostly because I would prefer Serum (Serum seems a lot easier to use and learn, this is just hard as hell-).

Now some people might be like "But Massive is better than any other synthesizer you could get," and I do plan on giving it a chance, but if I find it too difficult I'll have to find the rights to resell it because Native Instruments doesn't give refunds for digital purchases.

However, if anyone knows if it's legal to trade VST's, I'll gladly give you Massive in return for a legal, legit version of Serum. I'm not doing that though until I know it's legal.

I think the main problem with Massive for me is because it's FM. Certainly I don't use FM that much. However, it's also difficult to make growls and stuff with native Fl Studio VST's. The pitch also seems to be a problem. Literally no where on the piano roll does a key sound good.

Anyways, about my remix at the moment, I kinda rage quitted on mixing. The balance was just off completely. So, JK-FlipFlop offered to do it for me. He even offered to do .:This is the End:. a while ago, but that wasn't as much of a mess as this remix is. But, even when he does get done, I'm not releasing it till I get the DnB track completed. Then I'll release those two plus .:This is the End:. as an album on my SoundCloud. The DnB track will be posted here as well.

And finally, because I have serious issues staying on one track, I started this drumstep track. I like how it is so far. I have no idea what got me into doing drumstep lately, because I really want to master 110 BPM. There's not enough powerful Glitch Hop in the world.

Yeah, that's about it.

Lel as i told you i'am using the zynaddsubfx, i've started creating stuff with it yesterday and when i watched a few tutorials, it became extremely easy and fun to work on. I've never did anything with serum and massive but both seem cool, they both cost 100 US, right?

Massive is 149 US and Serum is 189 US.

I know you're using zynaddsubfx lol.

And i know you know :D

What do you prefer? Massive or serum?

Serum. I found it way easier to use in the demo version. It doesn't have 3 oscillators.

idk i will prefer serum to, but because of the prize i will prefer zasfx.

You could always wait till it goes on sale. I only bought Massive because it was on sale. And I'm *slightly* liking it more than I used to.

*price

How much does it cost on sale?

Right now it's half-off so 70 US dollars.

That's cool, but i don't really wan't it.

Eh, I'm only learning to deal with it because it's a hassle to resell. I have to call Native Instruments and get the permissions and have them remove the serial number off my computer. Then I have to list it online in hopes someone will buy it. I have to tell myself I've been wanting a new synthesizer anyways. Maybe someday I'll get really good at using it and make growls of my own.

Man, i'm already doing growls myself on zasfx and it's simple, fun(somehow), and the outcome is pretty good. Also i think i'll learn growls with monstro.

A drumstep thing I'm screwing around with will contain something I made in Massive. It's not all that hard.

Making growls is really fun. Especially when you call them your own. Then someday people will be trying to recreate an AzeXiR growl.

Yeah and bluealpha14's growl :DDDDDDDDD

I'm still kinda in preset-mode lol

Yeah, but instead of a few preset songs, i will be creating growls myself.

Some sounds I made on my own. But most of them are presets.

Also, i don't really have my typical style of growl yet, i guess.
