Walrus.....

You obviously can't read. Your incredibly vague question was answered as specifically as it possibly could. Maybe you should stop trying to put everyone down and realise that it is YOU that doesn't get anything. Go back and read people's responses, you've recieved way more good information than your attitude and ignorance deserve. Maybe you're just not getting the answer you were hoping to get, which is YOUR probelm. Go back and read the responses, take off the boxing gloves and the blinders, and learn something....You're an idiot, plain and simple.

WHAT SUBJECT???

There isn't a single person here - including you - who even knows what subject you are asking about, other than the fact that it has something vaguely to do with Wavelab. You're talking with marbles in your mouth and blaming everybody else for saying, "What?"

I tried, Walrus. I came on here all nice like trying to give you the chance to start clean and maybe actually get some answers to your question by stating what the fuck your question actually is. But you continue to trash some of best this board has to offer. Massive, Farview, Mshilarious, Robert D and ecktronic are some of the most veteran and most respected people on this board and you're tossing them away like yesterday's coffee, simply because you refuse to recognize the fact that you're asking for answers to a question that has yet to be asked.

Now either tell this board what it is you want to know or want discussed or get the fuck off of it. It's your choice.

It does sound "smokey"

This is really my last post. You guys are egging each other on and before you really get torn up just think about this. I'm going this far so that maybe you can be of help to other posters. I stand by everything I've said other than I apologize to Flat finger for soundling a little mean spirited. That was a bit tacky by my standards. I've been recording for years but obviously I don't profess to know everything. I'm mainly a songwriter and I think that is the push pull I perceive on this web site with maybe just engineers/studio owners. Here is what I originally said: "I wanted to see if there are any Wavelab users who have anything to offer that I may have yet to discover". Which means "what do you do with Wavelab on a regular basis and would you like to offer it up for discussion?". It could be any of the features of Wavelab that someone who just started using it might have yet to come across. It could be anything you like and use regularly. That's it. Just go into a stream of conciousness frame of mind. Let your mind run free-if you can-and everything that you could possibly think about Wavelab that maybe you didn't discover right away and it was great when you did. Or it could be best practices gained from longtime use. That's what I wanted to hear about from anyone that had something to add. For example, Farview posted me back "I think Wavelab is great". I appreciate that and I'll put that sentiment to good use. Thanks for posting me that reply...........
Again, if any of you are professional engineers, possibly you are offended that someone would ask about the nuts and bolts of your profession. That's what I'm thinking. I know quite a bit about certain parts of recording, much of which I discovered on my own or read. Like when I was recording a sax for the first time and it just didn't sound like what I wanted. What I discovered I wanted was when I substituted a capacitor mic with a dynamic mic. The sax then sounded like the sax I wanted to hear rather than a true representation of the instrument. I probably wanted to hear it that way because I've heard it recorded that way probably many times in my favorite recordings. Obviously, there are not always absolutes with with regards to recording techniques but often there are expectations. And then you just might not have your finger on what you are hearing in your head. So its often a search for how something was done rather than it being a question of it being the right or wrong. Some people, probably arrangers, producers and songwriters, have a certain type of imagination and can hear things other people can't. Anyone that can't has a hard time understanding the point of view of someone who can. There we have the push/pull. John Lennon was famous for not being able to articulate his vision in professional terms to the EMI engineers but Paul McCartney understood him quite well. When John asked him to play the electric piano on "Come Together", he told Paul to make it sound "smokey". It does sound "smokey".
 
You still don't get the fact that you didn't ask a question. If you would have asked "how do I use the montage to mix an audience behind my tracks so they sound live" I would have told you. That is asking about the nuts and bolts, that is also what most of us are happy to help with.

If you can't organize your thoughts into actual questions, how can anyone be expected to give actual answers?

If you want to know how to do something, ask. If you want to hear "Yo, Wavelab makes my beatz sound tight!" I don't see how that helps.
 
Well I understand yer frustrations, These guys don't always give up the goodies and do speak in wide and sweeping generalities sometimes. Hell , they don't have to tell us rookies nuttin and they do let some nice nuggetts sneak out! ( just gotta be patient and LUrk a bit!)
They don't even get their studio floor sweept or a coffee run out of us! Thats forum threads fer ya! I surely would like some answers to be a little more direct , and sometimes when I really pry and get all wordy and technical w/ my questions , I just get a pat on the head! So I go read more manuals and bide my time. Humans don't communicate worth a dam in general, do they?

Stick around, pay homage to the old school guys, they'll die soon and we'll take there jobs!!!!! :p :p :p
 
Not the first person I've encountered who attacks for no reason and then plays the "innocent by-stander who got attacked" card when he gets called on HIS un-called for aggressiveness. It's getting old. And it's cowardly and hypocritical. He also refuses to read anything passed what he wants to read and will never admit HE's the problem. I say fuck him and diapers he rode in wearing.

I have never given a half-assed answer to anyone with a question that has an answer. A lot of the questions here are along the lines of "how long is a piece of string?" There is no answer to that question. I could tell you how long a particular piece of string is, but not one that I can't measure.

A lot of the problem stems from people not having enough experience to know that the questions they are asking don't have answers. No one here is holding out. If you choose not to believe that the answers you're getting, that's you, not us.

Oh, man, I don't even know where to begin with how wrong your impressions of the pros on this board are.

I have never once known Massive, Farview, MasteringHouse, Benny, bblackwood, Ronin, Harvey, SonicAl, LeeR, Big Ray, RAK or any other of the fine professionals who come here to purposely hold back or hide any nuggets or anything like that; they bend over backwards in this place giving detailed information and complete explanations, all for free, and all which cost them years and thousands in time and money to learn themselves.

Trust me, the only trade secrets that you guys are not getting are the ones you refuse to listen to or read because they are too long for you to bother with or too "abstract" for you to wrap your mulleted heads around.

Frankly, it's extremely insulting to them to suggest otherwise.

If you don't want the answers, don't ask the questions. Or, if you want only those answers you want to hear regardless of whether they are realistic or or not, you're in the wrong place. The forums on fantasyland.net would suit you better.

Robert D, now that you have the key to the universe-per Massive Master-tell us what the mix tells you to do. We are waiting.

It tells me not to waste my time with jerks like you. :rolleyes:

Kudos to everyone else for trying, you're all more patient than me. :)

Here's something -

If you "select all" and then hit "delete" everything disappears.

If you haven't discovered that yet, don't do that and then hit "save" right away.

But if you're feeling a little "saucy" then you can do it and then hit "undo" right away - It's kind of like playing with fire.
 
Aw, come on John, you're holding back from these guys. Why don't you let them know about the real secrets, like how to go into Wavelab's registry and start adjusting flag values to make your files sound like the real pros? ;)

Also if you hit Ctrl-space. it will replace your audio with silence . . . then you can dither the silence. Can you hear the silence below the dither? Because dither makes the perception of silence even more silent . . .


Man, I really ought to drink less . . . :o

Well one impression that comes to mind is that ya'll really need to chill out. Why so hyper defensive? Jesus, I did'nt acuse you guys of being the mob or something. you are a little pedantic and stodgy sometimes , like an old college professor or something. I was mostly trying to clear the air w/ a bit of humor, but hey , what did I say, humans don't communicate worth a damm! :(

We really only get uptight when we are accused of holding back information or giving misleading information to throw the amateurs off the trail of professional sounding recordings. Why would anyone spend time doling out bad information to keep people from learning? That's just stupid and a dumb thing to be accused of from time to time.
 
Feng shui (pronounced "fung shway") is the ancient Chinese practice of placement and arrangement of space to achieve harmony with the environment. The literal translation is "wind and water".

Feng shui is not a decorating style. Rather, it is a discipline whose guidelines are compatible with many different decorating styles.

The source of the term is purported to come from the poem "The winds are wild/The sun is warm/The water is clear/The trees are lush".

Feng shui is a discrete Chinese belief system involving a mix of geographical, religious, philosophical, mathematical, aesthetic, and astrological ideas.
