I can understand asking the difference between different metal sub genres cause metalheads do like to go a bit overboard with them. But the definition of punk and blues? Cmon man those are pretty well defined. You’re not gonna convince me that after listening to a guns and roses song, a dead kennedys song and a BB King song that you’d be unable to say which one is generic rock, which is punk and which is blues.

- Comment on The way my fuck-ass pharmacist makes up the remaining pills in my bastarding prescription 2 weeks ago:
My doctor doesn’t even prescribe an amount. I just get whatever amount the pharmacy feels like. I’ve gotten a box with 30 pills (one daily so enough for a month), box with 60, back to 30, and the last time they gave me a box with 100. I’m not complaining, less refills so less hassle but it kinda makes me wonder how they decide the amount lol

I guess it’s either cheap to make background noise (instead of taking the effort to create an actual original video) or it’s kind of like mukbangs, where some people would watch them while eating themselves so as to feel less lonely.

Do you think that songs are recorded with all of the artists crammed in a room with a couple of mics placed around the room which is then recorded immediately to file? Cause that is not how it (in pretty much most cases) works.
You record the artist separately and than layer the tracks. Hell, most of the time even that isn’t done in a single take. You do multiple takes and splice the best parts together.
And a recording room does not have a characteristic sound shape. They are made to reflect as little sound from the walls as possible so you get the most pure version of the instrument. That’s the whole point. If you want something like reverb you add it either in the signal chain during playing or later in the production. Unless the instrument is recorded in a specific room with specific mics placed about for that rooms specific sound, if you hear any sort of room characteristics that is most likely a mistake.
The only case I can think of where you can hear the things you are talking about is when you are recording a live show/album. But even then you will need post processing for a proper “soundstage”, aka being able to hear the position of the different musicians. A single mic does not record position. You have to pan them left or right after the recording to get them left or right in the soundstage. You can do the exact same thing with electronic music.
And as I’ve said elsewhere in this thread, using autotune does not automatically make you a bad singer. If you can hear the autotune, that’s on purpose. If you can’t hear any autotune, there is a good chance that’s it’s still being used. The whole point of autotune is that you don’t hear it when used as intended.

That’s sick, thanks for sharing!
- Comment on Anon doesn't like the doors 2 months ago:
Almost true. The “autotune effect” only appears if you dial the knobs all the way up when setting up the effect. But you are correct that properly used autotune is pretty much not noticeable.
Using autotune also does not automatically make you a bad singer. T-Pain is very known for the autotune effect he useson his vocals, but he is an amazing singer even without using it.

In the Netherlands we call them raspatat. It’s mostly a brand name from the initials of its inventor tho.

- Comment on Why are podcasters/vloggers suddenly holding tiny mics? 3 months ago:
YouTubers didn’t mind the blocky look as it let them get great quantity sound in not ideal locations, without messing with traditional lapel mics(boxy clips, cables and tape).
Except most of the youtubers holding mics are doing that exact thing - except, instead of actually clipping the lavalier mics to their shirt they hold them up by the clip. Which is extremely dumb when you think about it.
- Comment on Why are podcasters/vloggers suddenly holding tiny mics? 3 months ago:
But they are completely nondescript tho, unless they actually name the brand you’ll have to know the mic from sight alone. Which is easy when it’s a shure SM58 or SM7B, but when it’s a tiny lavalier mic that’s pretty difficult.
