Thread: Time to Move
I'm curious, if you don't mind giving away your "secrets," about your mastering technique (if any).
Does your music come out sounding so "complete and glued together" (for lack of better terms) naturally, or do you use an online mastering service/app/program, or do it yourself?
TY!!

Thanks once again for listening. Im not sure I have any secrets haha. But to answer your question. I have 2 Eurorack mixers that allow me to combine the different hardware voices, one is the Cosmix Pro by Cosmotronics (6 channel) and the other is Carn by Instruo (4 channel).
Theses mixers allow me also to add effects from Happy Nerding FX Aid Pro and FX Aid. The mixers go off to 4 channels on the SSL Big Six mixer where I can add other hardware synth inputs if I need. I am sometimes using Atrium Instruments Swarm which goes into a stereo channel on the mixer.
Finally the mixer is connected to my Mac using Logic Pro (just moved from Garageband which was my long time DAW) where I can mix the various levels. I dont have any clue about mastering to be honest and tend to just use my ears when adjusting the levels and some EQ. I dont like spending time on the DAW as I prefer making music to that of forever mixing. I also do not like to add too much effects in the DAW as I prefer the challenge of making the hardware sing as opposed to using software to make it sing.
I dont write any of my patches down, once I record and am done then I pull all the cables and start from scractch again. I also regularly move modules around in the case to stimulate ideas and new worksflows.
Hope that has answered your question, if not please feel free to ask more.
Cheers
I find myself awating each new pioneer123/manic modular drop....
so I'd be remiss if I didn't ask if you planned on collecting your works in physical or digital album format(s)?
Thank you for sharing as always!

Thank you very much, very kind of you to say. Its always nice to hear when someone else enjoys your music.
I've never thought of doing a proper release as didnt think anyone would buy it hahaha.
But you may have planted a seed.....
Thank you once again
Had a listen last night, good stuff.

Thank you, appreciated.
How do you get the visuals? Video synthesis, I assume? Or some other method...
Regardless, I always appreciate the mix of eurorack twiddling and visuals in your vids! :)

Thanks for the feedabck, I combine the audio and video using an editor called LumaFusion for ipad which has a lot of stock visuals. I just spend time seleting ones that math the music. Not tried video synthesis yet, maybe worth a look...
trippy visuals, and i was getting some nice bladerunner vibes of the ambient composition, but i was left wanting like some high hat or something like that.
peace ✌️
