Music Production
Please see most recent Meta community post here: On machine learning generative models
Welcome to Music Production@sh.itjust.works.
A place to share anything and everything you want about your music making journey! Learning is the goal, so discussion is encouraged!
Rules are as follows:
- Don't share other people's music without commentary, analysis or questions. This is not a music discovery community.
- No elitism or bigotry towards other people's music tastes. Be polite in disagreement.
We will update rules as necessary, but I promise we'll stay light on them and only add new ones after discussion!
Here are some useful examples of what a great post would be about:
(in no particular order)
- Stuff you made/are making. Get valuable feedback and criticism!
- Learning resources - videos, articles, posts on any topic concerning a production process, be it composition, sound design, sampling, mixing, mastering, DAW workflow or any other.
- Free plugins, presets and samplepacks. Giveaways and self-made stuff included!
- News about production software, releases and personalities.
- Questions and general advice about music production.
- Essays on your favorite productions. Inspirations and insights!
- Your physical analogue gear! Let us know how it performs!
Good to know: As a general word of caution, avoid posting complete compositions, mixes and tracks on the internet before backing them up on a remote and reputable server. Even small snippets or watermarked tracks should be posted AFTER backing it up to cloud. Timestamps from cloud services will help you in case of theft. And, as a public resource, Lemmy (and the broader fediverse) is not a safe place to post your unpublished work, so please make sure your work is protected.

Mozart used the movement of a semitone downward a lot to end phrases. It's used a"sigh" of sadness rather than to establish confidence as in spoken English. I watched a few videos about it, and I have to say that in my ears, it sounds as if a downward inflection in English is actually just staying on the tone, because the default is to go upwards. When someone actually goes downwards, it easily sounds sad or condescending.
Depending on context there might be some connection between the two phenomenon, but anyway, I'd say that in music, the way to establish a solid point is achieved by playing the root note twice. The interval beforehand is less relevant, but perhaps downwards works better than upwards. That's my opinion anyway.
