Let’s gooooo!!! I can finally write on this thread!! Loving this platform so far. I am currently working on 101 and I have to say the mastering section already gave me so many nuggets! Now working on the mixing section. I may be back in a little while with some questions about it.

@Prentice Peters I just ordered me a new journal for this course 🙌🏼
@Nate Martinez Thanks! The biggest thing I learned so far is that referencing is huge when trying to make your track competitively similar. Visually seeing where your track may be lacking in frequency compared to your reference was cool to see and play around with first hand in the assignment. I have my orientation this coming Monday with Joseph and I wrote some notes down. This made me ask myself, when starting a new project should I use a reference track from the beginning to account for the frequency ranges that may be lacking with a song that would be similar to mine or should I just focus on that during the mixdown/mastering stage?
Ai MUSIC IS A BLESSING! 🤩
No disrespect to those who lean on Ai to "get ideas started"... I truly believe that this new wave of Ai music makes the audience appreciate the HUMAN element of our music more. I write my own lyrics --I don't even use chat to spell check my music! I don't typically use Apple Loops, though I have in the beginning. they are a great way to learn. I currently craft my own chord progressions and melodies through midi instruments and tweak the settings of them in my DAW (Logic Pro) Even though I am limited to Cmaj, because my music theory is weak, I appreciate the journey of going from a 2(rating) to a 10! How do you feel about the use of Ai in music? Particularly those who aim to make a career 💰 out of music.

I personally think it takes away from the experience of enjoying the process that people hold close to their hearts. I won’t listen to it myself and I’m not a big fan of the people that want to monetize off of an “artist project” but I do like that there are tools to aid in making your production process more efficient like Brainstorming ideas and sample/file organization. For myself, I enjoy the hours on end creating ideas and tweaking the little things in my mix with my own ears. It’s very rewarding to continually shows me progress in this relentless grind of making myself a better musician.

@Prentice Peters there’s def no effort or soul and we will never get rid of the person that knows how to make a quick buck! Haha
Reference tracks.
I know using reference tracks is really important but I can’t for the life of me get any. I’ve bought a couple from iTunes but it won’t let me download them. When I started this course I discovered that Rob had put some tracks up of different genres but I haven’t a clue where to find them again. Can someone point me in the right direction or tell me where I can get downloadable tracks from without subscribing. TIA Geoff

I have found that if you buy from iTunes you can go into Apple Music and drag the track into your DAW. I’m using a Mac and my DAW is Ableton. I hope this helps with the tracks you bought. I just recently downloaded Blackhole but still need to experiment with it.

Hello everyone! I'm Gemi!

What’s up Gemi! I am from Austin, Texas and have been producing electronic music for about 4 years now and have been leaning into chill, downtempo, experimental bass much for about 2ish years now. Favorite artist have to be Of The Trees, G jones, and eprom to name a few. I love hiking and the mountains so moving out to Denver in about 2ish years to immerse myself into the bass music scene there. I’m taking this course to learn as much as I can about mixing and mastering. I eventually want to start putting music out under my project ROYAL NV. I saw that you have a background in electronic music. What sub genre do you make and are treated in? Where can I find some of your work?
