I use Audacity to this day to for just that plugin 'Apply' feature. This essentially lets you run a plugin against an entire audio file in one shot, as fast as it can go, without having to bounce it out to disk. I find this especially helpful when my audio file is a stereo WAV of a 2+ hour podcast. ...

If any judge were like "Great song, but, this other one that I liked just as much had mp3 art and yours didn't, so, I ranked you lower" they should be immediately fired, imho. :P Heh, stranger things have happened. It's a pretty well established notion that things that are louder sound better. That...

If we want to talk collaborating on code in general, which would be helpful for progress, I think most of the interested parties have discussed it before and turned up their noses at the programming language/priorities/etc. :) I had envisioned a system where you upload your mp3 to to whatever music...

Honestly, if the goal is to have somewhat understandable Nur Ein rankings, the easiest thing to do is ban mastering and normalize all of the tracks before handing them to the judges. I think "easiest" may not be the right word here. You might want to consider tackling low hanging fruit like id3 tag...

How did you compose the vocal melody? Did you just sing it, or did you use an instrument? Do you think of lyrical meter in terms of strong and weak stresses? How did you come up with the chord progression, which instrument did you write it on? How hard did you work on lyrical phrasing? How did you ...

My 2012 quadcore i7 Mac Mini is still doing just fine. It has a 2TB SATA SSD, 16G of RAM, and Logic runs great on it. Using some cable adapters and a powered Thunderbolt 3 dock allows me to run my TB3 audio interface from my TB1 only Mini. Sometimes backwards compatibility is a great thing. I'm star...

So there is a upgrade/crossgrade sale for NI Kontakt/Komplete that is happening now. There is a clever way that you can bootstrap the upgrade process to get both Kontakt 6 ($124.50 instead of $399.00) and then crossgrade Kontakt 6 to Komplete 12 ($199.50 instead of $599.00) at reasonable prices. The...

We would often manually draw in a lot of volume automation for vocals prior to getting hip to compression. Sometimes I'll use like a 9:1 ratio with like a -22dB threshold to aggressively squash it, and then add like 10dB of makeup gain. The resulting waveforms look squashed and rectangular, and the ...
