#Musicproduction: Mixing Tips

Your Biggest Hero

Every creator needs influences. Meaning your hero has influences too. You have to know them. It's valuable to find out your hero's music inside and out. But focusing on how they got recommended to their sound is two times as useful. Knowing your hero's influences offers you a roadmap in your favourite sound.
Sites like WhoSampled, Discogs and All Music are great places to check out your favourite creators. Have used them to hear to see how your idols use their unique influences. Doing a small amount of influencer research besides offers you more to acquire inspired by, it also helps you are applying your very own influences better. So get to know'em! Study your hero's influences, not your heroes.

#Musicproduction: VCV Rack - Open-source modular synthesiser #freedownload

If you've ever been interested in Eurorack, this free software is the best place to start.

Free open-source software isn't a new concept in the world of music production. Many of us have used Audacity for quick audio editing tasks, and Ardour has enjoyed a fair amount of success as a free alternative to major DAWs like Ableton and Logic.

For those with a more technical background, Pure Data and Supercollider offer very deep potential for sonic experimentation. By and large however, open-source music production tools are often marginalised in favour of commercial alternatives that offer more user-friendly interfaces, greater stability and better performance. A new open-source software project released this past September called VCV Rack has the potential to become one of the first to break through that barrier and make a real impact in the world of electronic music production.
