    The Music of the Silent Hill series

    I haven't played the games, but I have heard of them. I know I've seen TV commercials for the franchise years ago at at least one point, if not several times. Listening to a few of the songs in your list, I was surprised that they weren't the atmospheric, creepy/sinister, foreboding music that...

    Creeps and Ghoulies - WIP

    Thank you so much! I'm really grateful that you listened and for your idea. I agree; I looked at adding a sound in the bass frequencies (Viola; Cello; Scarbee Rickenbacker, my favorite bass). I've had another look and found something in Arturia's Augmented Strings that I think I like. I'll...

    Creeps and Ghoulies - WIP

    In honor of the season, I'm sharing a Halloween-based WIP! This is still a bit rough (particularly the vocals, for instance), but I hope you'll tell me if you think it's coming along or not. Regardless, if you observe the day somehow, I hope you have a good Halloween, everyone!

    How Audio Works/Avoiding Clipping

    Thanks again for the feedback! Studio One's default volume is 0db. I'm not even sure if you can do it, but I'm wondering if it wouldn't be a smart idea to change that default to maybe -10db or something. I can always turn up my headphones while I'm working, and I think the difference can be...

    Changes to forum visibility settings: Journals [POLL]

    I made a post in the Status Visibility poll. Since those thoughts apply here also, I'll link to them here.

    Changes to forum visibility settings: Statuses [POLL]

    This reminds me of a similar idea, regarding the creation of a hidden subforum, that came up a number of years ago. I can see the appeal of having private areas of the boards. I think the culture of the boards benefits from everything remaining as open/public as possible, though. The above...

    MIKU EXPO Rewind

    Wow, the concert's 2 1/2 hours, and there's an hour of Digital Stars beforehand? That's amazing!

    Thoughts on Vocal Synth Music Preservation

    I think the idea of preserving vocal synth content is a good thought. The first issue that comes to mind is the one that Blue mentioned of an artist potentially not wanting their content to be public anymore. It'd be neat if somehow something like the Library of Congress got interested in...

    Vocaloid Merchandise News

    Not sure exactly when it happened, but preorders for the figure are open! If you're interested, shopping around is strongly recommended, and maybe visiting a Japanese vendor, in view of the lower prices there currently due to the favorable exchange rate relative to the USD.

    Hatsune Miku Logic Paint

    I've noticed that some of the numbers on the sides are colored green. It could be when the number occurs with other numbers in the row/column or alone. I thought maybe it had to do with if the colored squares ran up to the side, but that doesn't seem to be it. What do the green numbers mean?

    Image Editing Software Recommendations?

    Thank you very much for all you help, everyone! I have a number of options to look into! A question about Krita: from what I can see online, it looks like it doesn't handle transparent GIFs. Is that right? (For anyone unfamiliar, transparent GIFs are images with a transparent background so...

    Image Editing Software Recommendations?

    Can anyone share recommendations for image-editing software? I've been using Corel for awhile (which I think is relatively similar to PhotoShop), but they've moved to a subscription model. I'm not really a visual artist, so I think something like Clip Studio Paint is probably not quite right...

    How Audio Works/Avoiding Clipping

    Thank you for the explanation! The crash is 100% gone after about 6 seconds. The first instance where clipping was occurring was around 32 seconds. I've got the mix working at the moment. What I ended up doing was basically taking the volume of all the instruments down by maybe 3-4 dB...

    How Audio Works/Avoiding Clipping

    Clipping has been a bane of my existence for as long as I've been trying to produce. It's annoying as all heck trying to make a song, having it sounding good in the DAW, and then being unable to render it because it warns you that it's too loud in spots. As I understand, it's related to...

    Hatsune Miku

    Hi everyone! My time is regrettably short ATM due to some IRL stuff, but @hamano's Mikuration picks for this month are up in the OP! "ALiVE" by HachiojiP First up we have "ALiVE" by HachiojiP. Starting off a little darker and moodier, it soon quickens into more of a pop/gentle electronic...

    VOCALOID Spooky vocaloid songs

    Since the season is almost here, I figured I'd add a few more songs: "The Vampire" (For the title/surface subject matter) For the subject matter: "Hitorinbo Envy" "This Is the Happiness and Peace of Mind Committee"

    Question Using Vocal-synths as a beginner

    Since you're working on covers, I would also suggest that you take a look at our Tuning resource. Depending on where you're at currently, I'd suggest not worrying about it too much right away--just focus on getting comfortable with using your DAW, making or using downloaded MIDIs, and adding...

    Question Using Vocal-synths as a beginner

    I completely agree with this. Speaking about my own experience, I know that, especially near the beginning, there are times where you can feel overwhelmed. Starting from zero, sometimes it seems like each new thing you learn makes you aware of something else that you feel like you need to...
