If anyone has ideas for simple audio clip sharing in a Ghost blog, I'd love to hear
Drum synthesis is one of those rabbit holes where you can obsess for a long time, when instead you can find good enough sounds quickly and should probably just use them!
I wonder how many collective hours people have burned in trying to synthesize the 909. Here's one cool video of getting it in Reaktor (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=A_AWH3SgM84)... way cool as a project, but the ROI if everyone did it lol.
I've been using all my spare hours the past week spinning on trying to synthesis the snare used in the original Amen Break using Modo Drum to no avail. Like I said... Rabbit hole and I should probably just use samples like everyone else :(
I've spent a lot of time synthesizing drums I could have sampled, but I'm a lot faster and more precise at synthesizing whatever I need now.
If you just want to make the air shake, a quick way is to turn on the radio :D
I started trying to synthesize a snare as part of this library and blog post and got lost in the weeds so quickly. I ended up skipping it for now but will surely come back to it eventually
I've been wondering if machine learning or metaheuristics could be used to get close to an input sound. I've been toying with this idea using MIDI CC with a Rytm.
Great article, definitely inspiring.
