Ive never made a channel sub-thread thingy before and i saw the little photo icon so i thought lemme color this shit lol
grim sail
I'm here.
grim sail
Well. What are our main genres?
Mine are rock jazz hip hop funk orchestral and ambient
And fusions of all those
vocal lotus
Im compeltely cool with virtually any but i like orchestral and incidental stuff
i dont mind hip hop either
grim sail
Incidental like, something with 'cinematic timing"?
vocal lotus
ye, sorta
grim sail
Trying to imagine how we'd collaborate on that
vocal lotus
feelin like combining edm and orch
vocal lotus
Trying to imagine how we'd collaborate on that
i never thought this throug h that far 💀
ngl
sturdy crest
Did someone say collab?
vocal lotus
henyx
grim sail
That's an important aspect for sure since it cuts out what our workflow and creative process looks like
vocal lotus
if its orch we'd deffo need to know what libraries we have or at least agree on which to use
vocal lotus

agreed
grim sail
The one time I did a collab we just went back and forth composing sections
That's was many years ago 😂
vocal lotus
That's pretty much what i imagined
grim sail
Well. Consider the possibility of emulating a live performance sound, where we act as "digital band members" 🤔
Okay not necessarily a live sound. But
We handle different aspects of the song structure
Like I do bass for example
The problem is once someone sets something down it gets more restrictive
vocal lotus
As for software, I use kontakt libs, Purity, Hypersonic 2, Dimension Pro 1.5, and DSK instruments (all free on that last one). we'd have to use something everyone has access to tho... so im thinking stock and native plugins plus kontakt

thats the fun part
but ofc you dont wanna lock something down tooooo tooo tightly to the point where no one can touch it

one on strings, one brass, one perc, winds, choir
grim sail
I also have kontakt 👀 I got Mirage piano for 9 dollars at plugin boutique

esaktly

or just sketch it all out with like flex and u all have flex
grim sail
Flex?
vocal lotus
we could do that
grim sail
Technically. Yes.
weary ferry
its aight i bet u know music
vocal lotus
what ver of FL do yall use? i rarely use 20 but can. i mainfl11
grim sail
I do.
weary ferry
latest
grim sail
In a self taught semi self educated way
weary ferry
im self and henyx taught
grim sail
I've never been in a band before but so far I'm trying to think of this collab like being in a band kind of
I dunno what should come first necessarily, cause i was thinking the instruments we're going to use
usually when i produce my stuff I just load stuff as I go but. in a collab it might help to know what we're doing as much as we can beforehand
vocal lotus
we'll have to use stock and/or kontakt then since it accommodates the most amount of ppl
native/stock
im messing around rn, upload when done
throw a key out, thats a good start. what should i write in
grim sail
Like instruments lots of people have access to?
vocal lotus
yeah
so no one has to go searching for and downloading anything
its just casual for now after all
weary ferry
u can once u finish composing the stuff
vocal lotus
you can use that, i dont own it tho so not sure but i can just feed you my files
weary ferry
i wanna use css and csb and csss and chorus and noire but i doubt yall have those
vocal lotus
i dont have them
grim sail
you have a library guide??
weary ferry
yes
grim sail
shit. i should make one
vocal lotus
Action Strikes, do any of u you use it?
grim sail
Never heard of it
vocal lotus
gotcha
weary ferry
damage 2 and true strike are my goto perc
vocal lotus
ive the second one
weary ferry
hence why yall use flex or something for sketching
weary ferry
alr gn 
vocal lotus
Gngn
vocal lotus
Yeah, I'll whip a simple thing up. You can use your piano library on the proj
As infinime said
vocal lotus
epicness
went to tak ecare some business
did u make anything meantime?
audio tracks
here's the combined basic track w/ all the instruments together
ima post the midis, a bit late tho so i might have to do it tmw since my dad wants me tf up out the living room lol
btw pretty sure the bpm's 128 IIRC, home keys A minor, time sig's common time
grim sail

I'm sorry I thought I was waiting for you-
i just worked on some of my own stuff
I think i know what to do
though.
also im a dork i thought all these stems sounded Weird ASF but together they sounded fantastic.
shit what the hells the bpm
idk how FL does it but its matching the sample speed to whatever bpm i have set.
which i like. dont. want
i might end up paying infinimeow for one of their courses 👀
cause I'm a hella FL noob . - '
But like, I think I know exactly how to continue this song
there's a lot of ways actually
oh wow
grim sail
btw pretty sure the bpm's 128 IIRC, home keys A minor, time sig's common time
im really stupid the bpm was already mentioned
okay no
128 was insanely fast
it's closer to 115
also what is IIRC
okay that is something i type out usually 😂
vocal lotus

LOL
Yeah, listening out of context is wild
vocal lotus
also what is IIRC
If I recall correctly*
grim sail
yeah
vocal lotus
it's closer to 115
I'll check, I might have typod
grim sail
also I haven't been sure what the bpm is so i guessed at 115 so I could start laying down some ideas
I wanted to expound upon the melody
vocal lotus
ive been doin the thing might be a little BORING IDK
Cook up man 👨
grim sail
(. . )👍
Are you going to be able to kinda, fit the song around the stems a little. lol
They fit the music it's just not perfect
in certain places
i think
grim sail
also considering we all have FL, wouldn't it be possible to just share the project files
oh wait im assuming
that we have FL that is
grim sail
I'll do it or I'll die trying
and i like that attitude
all the effects and libraries wouldn't translate but
it'd help a lot in the technical area i think
seeing what stuff is
instead of
approximating
grim sail
No wonder the notes were getting sliiiightly offset and im like FUCKING HELL
vocal lotus
Lol
grim sail
yeh
grim sail
I'll send the project file + the midi
that'd be uber
vocal lotus
that'd be uber
Had to figure out how tf to export ALL PLAYLIST TRACKS to midi and i couldnt find any help....
so i had to sit there doing them each individually, manually lol
is there a way to export ALL playlist tracks to midi at once? there really should be, would have saved me like several mins
grim sail
🤔 LMMS has something like that...but i think it stuffs everything onto one track 😐
also i think
I have a result
piano ended up not getting used much.
and i ended up using soundfonts
granted I have experience getting them to sound good. but. it's still not as live sounding as the original stems
@vocal lotus
omg
the guitar exported with MAD GLITCHES
vocal lotus
granted I have experience getting them to sound good. but. it's still not as liv...
npnp lets hear
vocal lotus
its not KOMPLETE*

falls down the stairs
grim sail
okay this better work.
i swear
oh my god
why is ample guitar on drugs when exporting
EWWWWWWW
i love it when the plugin clearly states
how to get it to export properly
and you do that
and it exports with the same glitches
im not. i cant even
DIFFERENT INSTRUMENT THEN I GUESS???
or maybe justn o guitar
ufcki t
fuck it
vocal lotus
hmm
vocal lotus
okokokok i see u
grim sail
vocal lotus
MY EARS
vocal lotus
it sounded like uhhh
idek what remidned me of like some tv program sting from the early 2000s or late 90s
lmao
grim sail
yep
vocal lotus
sounds fine, just needs diff inst
grim sail
something like that
okay i mean er
its okay because
it wasnt
serious 🙂
it was the jokes
grim sail
I put it over there so it wouldnt fuck with the rest of the collab but like
i should probably just remove it myself
cause that's the courtious thing to do 👀
vocal lotus
no its fune
grim sail
alright so that's that
vocal lotus
yeee
grim sail
there isnt a "uwu just export these stems into individual files uwu" button is there
gotta do it individually
vocal lotus
hmm in fl20, for audio stems, i know theres a way to export ALL PLAYLIST TRACKS to audio
at once
vocal lotus
silence before
vocal lotus
yeah lol
grim sail
okay
soon
and no it didnt take so long because i was coming up with names for the tracks @-@
These are all the good stems though. all the previous ones are baddo
@vocal lotus
I also think it's time for some kind of transition. Maybe a small bridge that leads into something new

i was thinking the same
in fact, i had already conceptualized one
grim sail
ahhh 👀 very nice
in the meantime.
I shall run a few errands
should be back in like. 4-5 hours i think. maybe less
oh also. maybe someone else should take up the next addon
like Henyx over there
or infinimeow
...
weary ferry
hi
weary ferry
and it exports with the same glitches
idk how u get glitches on the ample guitars they work perfectly
grim sail
idk how u get glitches on the ample guitars they work perfectly
if you listen to the first upload of stoney's additions
you'll hear em
towards the end
buncha notes that were absolutely not there
grim sail
this one, when the guitar comes in its freakin broken
grim sail
in fact, i had already conceptualized one
kim kardashian over here said they had some kind of idea so like. I didn't wanna mess that up
but maybe
i just might have to.
when i have a second
that is
