@bedheadproducer :As has been stated elsewhere on here, audio tracks on NS2 are slated for June release as is a convolution reverb. The lack of sustain pedal support is just baffling to me though . I think I’ll be using both NS2 and Stagelight . BTW the RV metaphor is spot on.
Oh ok, I have some catching up to do on reading . I won’t be handicapped either way . You don’t even really need to export stems if it will run alongside a DAW the same way beathawk does. I’ve found that each DAW , or music creation station , sequencer or beat machine , whatever you want to call it has a different way of pulling creativity out of me . The amount of time it takes to get up and running is directly proportional to how easy it is to find the major functions , ie , quantize, transpose , duplicate , split, etc . If even one of those things is buried and then to top it off not easy to find in a manual then the whole process comes to a screeching hault . Sometimes I wish when I moving my hands around. Looking for the right button ( since that is not always something that even looks like a button ) that a voice would say warm , Warner , hot , hot , on fire , bingo!
But hey , you can’t have everything right ? NS2 has not had me searching long . Stageligjt had me searching a little longer , but beathawk , gadget and electribe were all worse ... but worth the effort . This doesn’t compare to anything else sound wise . The synth has a dreamy quality , slightly retro , slightly futuristic and the quantize is really organic some quatize functions are like swimming against the grain in other apps ... the enemy of human feel but in NS2 it seems almost organic .
So I think one of my next tutorials will be using NS2 .
I think there are some things to get used to and other things are like “ man , the other developers should have thought about this a long time ago . “. I think there is one advantage to iOS music production not having a totally meteoric rise, in that it is kept developers more grounded with the actual users and the community they are creating a product for. I think in the desktop world, Good luck trying to get an idea cross and implemented by the developers and expedient fashion or you were hoping that they will hear you. I think the developers in iOS or not rich and rockstar programmers yet compared to your desktop arena where program like spectra sonics omnisphere seems like a giant in software synths but when talking to the main programmer ( who just retired ) he himself believes their market Is such a small part of the general population, as I was. Must then just be a sliver in comparison. However give it some time and I believe the iOS developers we’re meeting Meg at superstars in the software world . This could be the last arena or a small time but ambitious programmer has a chance to be the first to the table with innovation without constantly Competing with giants like adobe who continue to have the corner stone of the graphic market the matter how hard someone tries to write a better sweet of software.
I think because you all have been waiting six or seven years for this to snowball it seems excruciatingly slow in its development and useless, Because I’m fairly new to the table and I saw what happened from Tape and records to digital and computers And what a significant change it was in the freedom a Musician had a at significantly lower cost . ... I’m less cynical and jaded and can really see the explosion that is about to happen . I don’t get “ wow , you did that on a PC or laptop?holy crap!” But I do get “oh my God, you did that on an iPhone and an iPad, no way !!” All the time now . It actually makes people pay more attention and they can feel part of it because many of them on iPads and iPhones and I know that whether or not this music is now more a decision we can make than a dream That will probably never happen.
Again I’m happy and lucky that I jumped in and seemingly perfect time, we able to be a part of this revolution as one of the first, even though all y’all were here way before me. Now finally all the time I took a step back into the shadows to learn production techniques and genre hopping are finally paying off, or on my musician friends who’ve been playing live the whole time or still pretty dependent on someone else to make their ideas sound excellent. There’s always some sort of sacrifice and I sacrificed my youth. I’m fortunate that these days , due Overpopulation There’s a lot of mediocrity and I finally am getting a chance to stand out, not because I’m more gifted or better than anyone But because I put in the time ... and continue to . That is really the secret to mastery of anything. Her brain is a computer turns taking in data and crunching numbers even while we sleep. It makes micro adjustments on our behalf to improve almost any technique , So long as we keep feeding it more data he can use through just to make us better. I can play in almost any key modulate almost any other key, Subdivide time like a progressive jazz master, now finally, but not because I have this great understanding where the billeted to communicate in detail why something works or doesn’t. I simply almost intuitively know what to do and win, merely because I kept plugging away At this point my growth is exponential. So I don’t think we need to be a genius with this great amount of aptitude . I progressed at the speed of a retarded infant for a very long time . If I can learn the stuff I am not lying when I tell you that almost anyone can. Eventually if you’re lucky enough to live long all of you will be wizards . Hopefully you stay humble And stay connected to your roots with compassion, seeing your own struggle in those or come after you. And hopefully one day a year or two from now as the snow will starts to get pretty big, You’ll remember this forum and be thankful you were part of an era of pioneers in tech and music . This is truly an incredible time to be alive !
@bedheadproducer :Nice perspective, Matt
When it comes to desktop DAW's I don't feel I can abandon my established setup (Cubase, mainly). But things are getting closer to that.
Though you can't compare feature-set between iOS and desktop, I have been doing 90% of my production work in NS2 for quite a while. This includes a bunch of stuff I normally would do in Cubase, and not at all related to NS2 development.
Of course, I'm biased. But it also happens to be true.
I got Cubasis early on but never could come to grips with its user interface. Obviously, I would have wanted it to be my solution on iOS but that never quite happened.
When NS2 gets audio tracks and continues to mature, I could see myself using it for just about everything short of mastering and some special stuff I can't quite achieve outside of my main daw setup.
To me it comes down to joy when producing. Cubase has been no joy for a long time. NS1 was nice but it's age has been showing for some time. I've found NS2 brought my joy in production back. So much so that now I'm looking out into the iOS music making landscape once again and looking to bring other apps back into the equation (after quite some time away, I must admit).
@StevePAL : Well said, mate! Hey are you the “Steve that’s been doing the NS2 videos?
Yes sir! I've seen your encouraging posts. Thank you. I'll keep producing videos. Trying at least one a day for much of this month... and beyond! (if people still want them at that point).
I'm glad I read this thread. Was considering buying this week but I'll hold off til they add modwheel support. It looks pretty damn good but that's a major part of expressive synth playing.
Steve , it’s a huge selling point for the app. One of the hallmarks of Logic Prox is “Music Tech Help Guy”’s YouTube channel as well as Pete John’s fantastic YouTube channel for garage band . Have you noticed how many members here State “I don’t wanna learn a new DAW”? The video’s definitely helpntilt that decision making process. I see video tutorial availablloty as an intrinsic part of the app. Please don’t stop, they really help.
wow, that was a good read!
I’m sure we all will. I find watching someone use music apps and describing what and why they are doing things, much more inspiring than reading manuals. I’ve always been a visual learner
So thanks for the cool vids and while you keep making them, I will keep watching them
