Your favorite Ai based plugins, vsts, etc Also a related question. Is there any Ai plugins that can go through your samples and find ones that match a certain note. It would be awesome if you could query the Ai for a c4 note, and it would look thru all your audio and stitch together anything resembling that note, at least from 'fits a lot' to 'kinda fits'. I do know about that vst that can sort drums by similarity, mostly one shots or short loops I think? Edit: Here is a link to the 'top' ones. Some do what I describe to a lesser extent it seems. Has anyone tried these? https://www.attackmagazine.com/reviews/the-best/the-best-ai-assist-plugins/

you ever find this track?

I bet Matrix 4 will be like the sequels in that people warm up to it over time now that their expectations for the plot to be more complex than it is.

I really enjoy the movie. I'm happy it didn't go off the wall crazy like many people wanted it to. I said this already but it's the characters that made the movie a fun watch for me. The reason for the bad reviews seem to stem around the fact that people expected more than what was in the movie, which I get. I also understand why it was important to flesh the characters out more emotionally. I think many people wanted it to focus on some crazy matrix twist that would put the original trilogy into another context, but I think the reason they didn't do that was because it would sacrifice the characters from the original trilogy in someway and make the struggles of the characters in the original trilogy seem irrelevant. Hence why the characters are where they are in Matrix 4. Building off of the original trilogy instead of 're-contextualizing' it in a major way.

Love that moment where they hug in the interview. I am basically the guy on the right grinning ear to ear. Lol

I watched Resurrections a second time. I think my enjoyment of it comes from the characters and their emotional struggle through the film. If I didn't like the characters as much as I do, I can see myself not liking the movie. I do feel like the plot is contrived at parts. Like I said they really needed to retcon the human = energy thing, and the reason for Neo and Trinity being together as they are is a weak one, and probably the worst aspect of the movie. If it gets a sequel, they need to add in more 'philosophical depth' in ways that are justified, and recontextualizes this movie in interesting ways. I would like to see the series take on 'echo chambers' which is especially relevant these days. How people create and believe the reality they want to be true, instead of objective reality. I feel like it was a missed opportunity here. That said Lana is probably making two more movies so maybe it's being saved for those.

I thought that was what we were going to get going in.. kinda. I was expecting that 'New Nightmare" approach the Freddy Franchise took with Freddy coming into the real world. But I think if it went this route people would just say that Matrix sacrificed emotion just to have a mindbending plot twist that would ultimately serve nothing. And they would be right.

New Matrix was really good. I was expecting it to be bad after reading these comments, but it's one of those 'you'll really like it, or really hate it' kind of movies. I think I like it more than even the first one.. well actually I like reloaded a lot more than the first one too though, but I need to watch it again to see. Half my family hated it and the other half really liked it. It's kinda jarring actually to see the seething hate and like of it right now. I feel Matrix 2 - now 4 really isn't for everyone and the reactions I am seeing prove it. I don't think it overplayed the meta aspect. I was expecting to cringe at the meta but I thought it was done well. The criticism comes off as hyperbole given what I just watched. I do think they should have changed the humans from being an energy source to like an intuitive hive mind they can weaponize against the other Ai the film mentions. I'm surprised that wasn't retconned.

yeah I know it's in a time sig as short phrases, but even then the tempo is very loose and still natural, and better for it. So it makes me interested in having customizable beats where I can basically just place the rhythm I want and the DAW will adhere to it and snap to it. I don't necessarily want to use a specific time sig either. Just the ability to place the rhythm down and adhere to it without thinking about whatever time signature it would be. Thanks for the advice! You would think, but in Fl Studio it seems that you only can tell it specific time signatures. Probably due to the fact it is pattern based. I've only been able to kinda get the loose time sig by automating the tempo. But that makes it more difficult to place down audio samples as sample length and pitch are tricky to make sound right this way. so I mostly just use midi when I have to do this.
-
To give an example of what I mean. In this video there really is no static time signature, but yet still a coherent rhythm: Let's say I took this and instead of forcing a specific time signature, I just customly placed the beats where each new beat or rhythm would be, and then the DAW would be able to snap to these new chosen rhythms. Most obvious way to get this sound is to have a static time signature, but automate the tempo. Or instead of using a normal DAW sequencer, just throw it in audacity or something and use the drum placements as where I should be mapping the changing beats to. But it would be much better if I could just map out the time signatures rhythm beat by beat manually, and have it snap to these rhythms.

I tether it directly to my computer or laptop using PdaNet for Android: http://pdanet.co/ If you have iphone there are tethering options too. It works pretty well. 20-40ms latency in online games and such. Variable download speed depending on time of day. From 500 kb/s to 1.5 mb/s. When I have to hotspot it's usually like... 60-80ms latency and 300-500 kb/s so yeah tether is much better. When 5G finally comes to my area I'll finally have a decent internet for the first time ever. And my phone doesn't get hot at all really, even if I have to DL something overnight. yeesh, nevermind then.

https://vochlea.com/ I just bought this on sale for Black Friday. It starts tomorrow, but if you enter your email it'll send you a link to buy it a day early. It's not cheap but I was instantly sold when I saw how accurate it was. I've only had an hour to play around with it, and I'm already loving this so I felt since it's on sale I'd share it with WATMM. I'm decent at beatboxing and not really that good at even humming in tune, but it will train notes/pitches to your voice and helps you fill in the gaps. Since I can't play piano much this I can tell will be awesome for getting ideas down quickly without having to sing badly into my phone to try and decipher later. The samples on the main page on the website are accurate to my experience so far. I'll probably post some sketches when I've played around with it enough.

Thanks! I was hoping someone would reply to this thread though Two Player DAWing hasn't caught on yet really. Every person I tell about this are surprised it's even possible and like me initially dismiss it due to the assumption there would be no way around the lag. That said my friend will be moving halfway across the world soon, so hopefully the lag doesn't become a problem then. Out of curiosity, how good is your internet and your friends? I have to use my phone as 4g tether so my latency is gonna be like... 30 or 40ms. Then plus his latency. Have you tried any others? Or looked at them in comparison? There seem to be a lot of options now.

In terms of enjoyment, it's just intuition and what you have grown up listening to, and what you chose to listen to in teens/adulthood. Like someone said it's like looking at individual pixels on a screen and trying to piece together the picture it's making. I think it's just like another language. Why do words sound the way they do, and why do two words that can definitionally mean exactly the same thing, but have two different connotations to where one word is positive and the other is negative? Or how the same sentence using the same words can mean entirely different things when you hear HOW it is said? You can go into how the language is formed and all it's patterns (music theory), but why do some words feel comforting, or some feel nasty and apparently lots of people hate said word (moist). IDK if studying the structure of english language can give you the answer to that, however you would still have to understand the structure of english language on some level to begin getting into it as well. You just have to 'feel it' when it comes. I am sure there is an explanation for it, like if we could see our brain activity. But it is only tangentially related to the mathematical structure of the english language. A really broad way of thinking of it is 'context'. What is the context of the notes and rhythms in the whole of the song? In the placement of the song in the album? Of the album in the discography of the artist? What was the artist's life like at the time? Is the artist the type to put their life into their music or do they prefer to keep them separate and more abstract? What is the context of the way a sentence is said? You can't fully understand something until you see it in context. Same with enjoyment in the rhythm. I could go on and on but you get what I mean at this point. It's a great question which maybe we will one day be able to understand on some level. Beyond just "I like those fast bits".

Friend and I like to jam together but being around each other physically is a one month in 2 or 3 years thing. We hang out and jam a lot during that time but it always feels bittersweet we never get much done musicwise. Every year we come back and enough has changed to where we prefer to make new sounds and it's been like this for a few years now. So I've been trying to think of ways to jam online. No different than jumping into a multiplayer game. That would open up a lot of windows to where we don't have to be physically present, and could do frequent 1 or 2 hour jams. I use FL Studio primarily for collaboration, and he likes to play guitar/piano/sax live. So as a setup idea, it would be coming from his end as he would have to be the one with no latency. Whereas everything I do which is digital and manipulated in a DAW, can afford to be if we are trying to make interesting sounds. So what methods are out there? I have googled it but nothing beats first hand experience for this kinda thing.

Kidding or not this happens a lot. This is how some people are going to react. The "you are a snob" thing only applies if you think that being into something makes you better than someone else intrinsically. That, or if the person who is accusing the other of being a snob assumes that just because someone likes something (Wine/Autechre/ASMR Videos) and "sees more" in that something that appears the same to them, and they can't see it, the other person must be full of shit because clearly the music is just random drum beats and noise. And they must think they're better than you even though in reality it's just a hobby for them and they are excited to share and talk about it, jumping at the chance when it comes up in conversation.

I think it's easy to take for granted the "intuitive music vocabulary" we get from listening to this stuff over time that makes us like certain kinds of music even more than we used to as time goes on. We can listen and go "look wasn't that so cool that rhythm motif right there? Controlled Chaos that shows itself the more you listen!" and someone who hasn't listened to much of this kind of music will go "I dunno it's just random noises with. Sound Design is cool but Aphex Twin makes these same sounds but knows what to do with them." (an actual conversation I had once more or less) So it can be helpful to someone who wants to check this kind of music out, maybe they like the 'easier to get into tracks'. Tell them what you hear, why track x is appealing to you even if first few listens it seems random when it isn't at all. I mean most people start out just liking straightforward catchy music since it's very obvious 'musical vocabulary' and will go on looking for solely catchy music unless they have a desire to expand what they think of as music. Sometimes they can be kickstarted by showing them what you look for.

OP you keep basing assumptions of 'possibilities' then assume that possibility is true then move onto the next possibility that comes about if the previous possibility is true.
-
If those things were for sure real then they would also be considered science as there would still be an explanation behind them beyond just popping into existence. The Magician still has to cast the spell and when he masters it and knows exactly what to do he can replicate it at will by doing whatever it is that wills it into existence. So repeatable observations that change consistently based on the wizards input? Science.

Yeah they didn't do the best job at showing that Leto knew he was screwed from the first time you see him on screen. Though the movie does follow Paul who didn't really catch on for a while which is why I think the movie is slow at spelling it out. The audience realizes it as Paul does.

Oh well it's a relief to find out it's been all apart of God's plan. Time to jump ship to conservatism!

The Godzilla OST. The American one from the late 90s. I used to dance to it with my cousins when I was... 5 or 6? Haven't heard this in 20 years. It's crazy how I can remember lyrics and instrumentals from when I was 5

Oh yeah. I started reading Dune last night, and at one point Paul says that he is convinced that his hand was ash when putting it in that Gom whatever box. In the film there is a very quick flash of a charred hand in that moment. I think it would have been more effective to spell it out more with his thoughts instead of being an easter egg for the readers.

Yeah I woke up this morning thinking "I REALLY wanna sample that huge formant-y bass voice at the very beginning, find out how to make it, and start a new genre with sounds like that. That's true. There is so little of her actually in the movie, but in a way that makes sense. It is probably best to work on making her a fleshed out character in the sequel. Btw I realized the 'Storm' bit was basically his Luke Skywalker " don't use our technology to shoot and instead use our story's magic system to do so". That explains why people kept saying it's going to be the new Star Wars. Probably subconsiously picked up on that from that part... also all the sand. Yeah it had to stop somewhere. That said, that could mean the next movie has much more material to shine if Denis can get the pacing right. So the choice will end up being a good one. Yeah, I wish that that 'snake levitation' thing was actually his whole body. Was a bit disappointed when I saw that he is just a normal human. Also, Denis definitely was going for Colonel Kurtz from Apocolypse Now. Similar voice and mannerisms. He keeps taking things that worked in classic films and remixes it for Dune. Yeah. The way the movie was shot was a lot of fun to watch, but so many scenes started with showing you parts of the characters for 10 seconds before showing them to you. The Brooding I think was to create constant tension everywhere. That their house was fucked from the moment the Emperor "gave them" them planet, and everyone knows it. So everything is intense. I do think that they over-did it, but with how much Denis chose to do it, it easily could have fallen flat and felt pretentious after a while.
