Song Description

Not a lick of creativity here. Looking for creativity? Leave now.

Not done with Magic GarageBand. However, none of these sounds was created by me in any way. Most are from freesound. Some are modified loops. I didn't write any of the code for any of the sounds effects either. I didn't write the code that mixed this down, nor did I create the MPEG level 3 algorithm, or write the code that did that conversion.

(Oh no. Not that "loops" argument again. Music is music - I don't care how you make it.) http://www.macjams.com/forum/viewtopic.php?forum=6;showtopic=131947

~~~~~~~~
GarageBand synths used in this song:

Plastic Factory
Electric Bass

(plus various effects and AUs - need I list those too?)



~~~~~~~~ I did however write the code used on this for final gain-riding, transient peak clipping, and stereo enhancement. And it took a while to gather, arrange, and mix all this stuff together. Does that count for anything?

I'm sure your point will still be missed by some, but I find the post not only hilarious but informative and a very entertaining listen as well. Wow Water slosh splashing sounds just like a washing machine. Thanks for sharing.

Bill, this is creative, no matter what anyone says. And thank you for telling us what you used to make this. It's fun to try to identify each sound.

MarkHolbrook said 138 days ago
Oh good...
I thought I was in for a Calculus refresher by the title!!!

VERY COOL!!!!

michael2 said 138 days ago

lengold said 137 days ago
Do you know
that my stomach makes that sloshing sound if I've eaten too much and then gone for a walk.
Bill you breathe creativity - this is a great listen.
Cheers

iN2Ni said 137 days ago
Really nice, interesting
Hi SmokeyWV! I appreciate your masterpiece, pleasant at first listening, really amazing at the second time!
What do you mean by 'Not that "loops" argument again'?

Your piece is lively, well-built, exciting, giving energy. It' s a success!
Yes, creative! Bravo!

- en franais :

Votre morceau est vif, bien construit, entranant. Une russite ! Et cratif ! Bravo !
