Alone (Demonic Mix) - January 2022

After a very long break I finally got back into music making in 2022. I had started messing around with a few samples in Lockdown in 2020, but didn't get around to finishing anything.

This was a track I worked on a few years earlier, with different vocals. I was never totally happy with it, and that hung around in the back of my mind for years, I had unfinished business with this track!

So I revisited it and found Kara's wonderful rendition of Alone by Edgar Allan Poe on ccMIxter. It was a perfect fit. I did think about adding the original vocals back in, with one on each channel à la The Murder Mystery, but decided against it as I had messed around with them so much trying to mask them, and couldn't find the original.

The demonic voice in the background is actually a slowed down sample of speech from a well known Sci-Fi movie. At one point it reveals itself.

Reviews for Alone (Demonic Mix) on ccMixter and Looperman:

Deeply cool groove.

Hey Kirkoid! It’s great to see you here! I really dig your dark, hypnotic mix with those crisp, catchy drums. Thanks so much for including my vox.

Wow, what a fantastic intro my friend. Great track. Well done, Maj.

Cool, it is retro and future at the same time. awesome!

Really creative work and like Maj said, the intro was pretty awesome. Well done. I hope all is well. Bear

So I found out that if I sang Africa by Toto in a certain rhythm it would go along with one of Disturbed's songs, so I recorded me doing it for all of you, you're welcome I am sorry my voice sounds bad, I am a bass, not a tenor or an alto lmao.

I just wanted to bless tumblr with this monstrosity

I was ripping my Simpsons DVDs to put on my media server (as you do) and noticed how the audio is 5.1 surround on the disc. I didn't think that could possibly be true, but at the end of the episodes it does say it's presented in Dolby Surround.

The Simpsons wiki has the wild uncited claim that Dolby created Dolby Surround specifically for the Simpsons. If you've got info on that PLEASE tell me.

Getting down to business, since I've ripped the discs I can import the audio right into Audition and view the channels. In order: Left, Right, Center, Subwoofer, Rear-Left, and Rear-Right. There's actually stuff there! That waveform is from A Streetcar Named Marge. You can see all the songs in the surround channels and some sound effects. The stage audio exists as faint reverb. Here's what it's like without any of the front audio:

Pretty cool to see that it's actually in use! I'm still downmixing to stereo to save space, but it's neat!

Hey I sA your Adobe post and I’m so confused about not launching things, etc.

If I do this wrong am I going to brick my computer forever, I’m stupid 😭

No problem! One: You're not stupid. Computer stuff is hard and scary.

Two: No this will not brick your computer. The worst thing that will happen is you won't successfully circumvent the Adobe paywall and you'll have to try again.

Three: As for not launching it, I mean that usually when you install a program on a computer, it launches afterwards. Sometimes it will say something like, "[Program] installation complete. Do you want to run it now?" If you get a prompt like that, click no, and if it launches itself, then immediately kill it. You don't want it to run until after you've completed the steps in my post.

Ask me more about how to pirate Adobe CC apps, or read the masterpost here: https://captain-acab.tumblr.com/post/655796038047825920

Currently working on my cover of Astrogirl by Sana Tsukumo! This is a WIP so the final product is going to sound slightly different. There's a few changes I want to make before I set this as finished and start providing artwork, video and pushing it out to all my social media.

I'll post the changes I want to make and things I'm unhappy with under the break. Please give it a listen before reading the rest of the post so you can have an unbiased first listen and try not to hear the things I point out.

I am open to critique on my mixing. I want to provide the best product, so feel free to comment things you like or dislike about my mix.

This is my first time working with Melodyne and manual pitch correction and time phasing. For a first attempt, I think it's pretty good. There are words like "orbit" that sound kinda wonky. I don't know if it's how I sang it or if its the time phasing making it weird. Reverting time phasing doesn't seem to change how awkward I say it, so it might just be my voice.

2. The last chorus has a high vocal range needed, and using my higher range, I can't reach the highest notes. I used Melodyne to get even higher, but overall the pitch shifting sounds weird, so I might do another take and find an alternate harmony.

3. The original song uses a vocoder and MIDI. I'd love to use this same technique but Adobe Audition doesn't work well with MIDI, if at all. I've settled with using chorus and flanger effects to bring a fuller effect to my voice instead. Might play around with the settings to give it a more "vocodey" effect. Looking to switch over to Cubase since I want to get into composing originals, too.

I also found out that Melodyne doesn't render in Adobe Audition, so I have to realtime bounce my cover (hence the video recording instead of a audio post). I am definitely changing DAWs as soon as I can.

4. All the tracks have no gain automation. I don't think I need any, but it's worth exploring. If I hate it, I can just delete all the automation.

Be cautious if you use Adobe Creative Cloud

They've recently added a setting that opts you in for some sort of "Content Analysis" program. While it's totally possible it's not related to AI, even if it's not, I still wouldn't take the risk.

Be sure to spread this post around.

Here's a video that shows how to opt out:

Spring Update 3: Sound and Voice Acting

Most sound effects that I used, or at least the good ones, came from splice.com. They are a paid subscription but they do have a 1 week free trial you can use. Just download a video & audio recording software like OBS and you can record the sounds from the website that way. I would use YouTube for the more popular and specific sounds that everybody has heard before, so a stock wipe transition or the Tickle Belt Theme from Sponge Bob. If you try to only download sounds from YouTube it may take a while to find something that is useful or to find a variety of the same sound that all sound good, such as the punch sound effects.

Sometimes it might be worth it to do some foley work yourself. I had the most trouble finding a good cloth sound effect for the blanket and the empty bags. At first, I tried using my actual blanket but it did not give the desired sound I wanted and my bedframe itself is really loud whenever I move. So I experimented with a few other cloth-based materials and finally, I grabbed my towel from the bathroom and it was perfect. It had the right amount of subtleness that I wanted and I could control the length of time I ruffled it. Other places I used foley work was sifting through the popcorn bucket by making my own bag of popcorn and then sifting through that, the crunching sounds of the popcorn were actually me eating Doritos cause crunches from chips are louder than crunches from popcorn, the VHS tapes moving around was me fidgeting with a VHS tape since I had 71 of those laying around and I asked my mom to bring our old VHS player up to Hoboken so I can record any subtle sounds it makes, and then Dillon washing his face was me washing my face with CeraVe Foaming Facial Cleanser.

youtube

The Zoom mics can pick up a lot of background noise, so did my HyperX Solocast, and many of the sounds from YouTube. This video shows a variety of methods you can get rid of background noise in Adobe Audition, highly recommend giving it a watch if this is what is bugging you.

It's also a good idea to record some white noise for your animation, this includes indoor scenes. Usually, when there is absolute silence between pauses when characters are talking it feels awkward or when there are only footsteps and clothes moving. It's also a great way to distinguish different settings from each other. Dillon's room uses the white noise from my own room while the white noise in the brain room is from the bunker. I tried using the same white noise throughout the animation but whenever we transitioned to a different setting it felt like the same place rather than two separate settings.

The one thing I severely regret not doing is not taking advantage of some of the Music Tech equipment Stevens has. They have an entire soundproof booth for voice recording in the back left of the studio on the third floor of Kiddie 350 and a bunch of professional microphones and headphones that sound 1000x better than the stuff I was using. I have a Music Tech friend who is also a monitor at the studio and I have known about this since the fall semester. The reason why I didn't do it earlier was because I was just shy about people looking at me trying to voice act. I also didn't know what was the policy about Vis Tech students using the Music Tech stuff but I'm sure if I just emailed some professor about it we could have worked something out, especially since the Music Tech people use equipment from the Fablab all the time. They can also help you out with sound effects as well, I had a tough time trying to find a music cue for the last scene when Dillon closes his eyes. I wanted it to be something like the Smiling Friends ding music cue when they get somebody to smile but I couldn't find it by itself on Youtube. That was until I showed it to my Music Tech friend and he plugged a bunch of things into the keyboard and I got exactly what I needed. However, I only used these good mics for stuff like grunts, snores, and screams. If I used my normal mic it would either peak past the point of it being fixable or it was too quiet and the background noise would always creep in. Also, since I was still unsure of bringing in other actors at this point it's going to be much harder to coordinate a time when all 3 of us, me, my Music Tech friend, and my actor, could be in the studio together at the same time. To keep audio quality consistent I decided it would be best just to use my mic for actual dialogue and the good mic for stuff my mic physically can't perform, also just to make my life easier cause it took a while to get some of these takes. For any future Stevens students that are reading this you 100% know at least one Music Tech major since a lot of them will take the art classes as humanities so it doesn't hurt to reach out to them and ask if they can bring you to the studio, the worst they can say is no.

Instead of the booth, I used the Fablab equipment room for recording the female Vis Tech/Theater Club student voice actor. It's pretty soundproof in there except for a vent that makes a tiny rattle noise but that can easily be taken out if you watch the YouTube video I linked, just record some dead noise as a sample and you'll be fine. However, I had access to this place because I am a Fablab monitor so I can't guarantee that the faculty will let you do what I did. Also, even though I did say this place is soundproof, what I mean by that is that it doesn't echo when you talk into the mic and doesn't pick up a lot of white noise. But the walls are thin so if it's an active day you can hear people from the teacher's offices or the laser cutter room. Also, Fablab people are constantly gonna walk in to get equipment and you'll just be in their way so it's best to go in there outside of their active hours which I highly doubt they would let you do. But again it doesn't hurt to ask.

For the actual voice acting part I'd say, just have fun with it. You obviously don't have the budget to hire one professional voice actor let alone several professional voice actors so the only way to get a good performance is just by experimenting. I have never done any voice performative work or any stage acting. The only actual acting I've done is in my videos and a lot of that acting is pretty much the same character so to play like 6 different characters and trying to make them each distinctive was a big challenge. And if it wasn't obvious from this post I do get very self-conscious whenever I do show my performative pieces. But somewhere in February I just said "Fuck it, I'm never gonna see these people ever again after this is over, I don't care if this is the most cringy shit anybody has ever seen, I need these voice clips for the critique". Once I stopped caring about people judging me the voice-acting part became a lot easier, obviously the first take you get from yourself or from others is not going to be what you want because your job as the director is trying to find that voice. Sometimes that means randomly moaning into the mic from exhaustion because you can't figure out how to sound like a fourth grader and then playing as an anime character cause you thought it was funny but eventually, you'll find it. Also if you get your friends involved try to make it fun for them too cause they are in an unfamiliar situation as well and they are pretty much doing you a favor even if you're paying for their time. This girl that I hired I was under the impression that she didn't like me so even asking her to be a part of my project was a bit nerve-wracking but as I keep saying it won't kill you to just ask and surprisingly she agreed. And then on the day of the recording, I just asked her simple questions like "How has your day been so far?" and then tried to have a mini conversation about that or show some of the funny bloopers from when I was voice acting. I believe it helped loosen us up a bit to each other and the further we got into the session the less awkward I felt. Also, doing all the voices on your own first, even if it's a really shitty voice, can make it significantly easier for your actors to understand what type of performance you want them to go for.

Finally, we move on to the actual sound mixing. Once you clean up all the audio in Adobe Audition you should then port all of those into Premier Pro, including all the takes you don't want. When you splice clips together you never know what take from one actor might work the best with another take from a different actor. With the female actor, I think we did like 5 or 6 takes to get the ending part of the teacher exactly the way I thought would work, and then I ended up using the 2nd or 3rd take because it flowed better when I cut it up a bit and played it back with my performance in context with hers. Other times I would speed up/slow down/reverse or pitch correct certain sound effects I thought were bad at first but then became what I wanted them to be when I did those manipulations. Something I would not recommend doing is leaving all of this stuff last minute, most of the sound mixing I did the day before the Capstone exhibition which drove me insane. I had to constantly replay the same clips and listen to the same sounds and jokes over and over again throughout the day to see if everything was playing well together and then obviously I would have to play everything from the beginning once it was rendered to make sure the sound was consistent throughout the whole animation. You don't want to force your audience to manually turn up and down their headphones as they watch your piece otherwise they won't watch it all the way through. Definitely give yourself a week because the sound in an animated short is just as important as the visuals themselves.

Janko - August 2022

I began this project in 2020 in the depths of Lockdown, and while I'm unsure of the origin of many of the samples, they likely come from Freesound or Looperman.

As the track slowly grew over a two year period, it became a mixture of sounds, styles, ideas and moods, akin to a musical version of a vintage patchwork quilt or rag rug crafted by your grandmother.

This marked my second attempt to incorporate vocals, and I am much happier with this version. I tried to keep the percussion a little loose to give a more organic feel to this track. The backing vocals I reused from Notice.

Like Open Up My Inner Eye, this is a track I really, really like and have listened to endlessly, but doesn't seem to really hit the spot for anyone else.

Comments about Janko on Looperman and SoundCloud:

Beautiful track and how you did place the vocal fits perfect. I like it!

I need to give a little comment on that. I think you have many years of experience to make vocals fit this way and the part of your math brain that cooperates. My math part never worked lol. I just use my ears but i cant trust them always.

I feel like the mood completely doesn't match the vocals, just me probably, otherwise sick tune.

I really enjoyed this remix.

Fixing Adobes stupid modern icons on Windows

So if you're a frequent adobe user you're probably aware that back in 2020 the icons for a number of their software went from being color coated to homogenized.

While I do understand the motivation to do this it is frankly, very stupid! No longer can you tell at a glance which software is which, you must be vigilant at all times. The amount of times I thought I was opening Audition only to realize I clicked on After Effects must be in the hundreds. While this might sound like a minor problem each these programs can take up 30 seconds to a minute (depending on your hard drive speed) to boot up and close. So if your working a project that requires you to switch between software frequently that avoidable mistake can add up quick! NO MORE! I say we shall fix this! (but only on windows, sorry mac users :/)

Step 1

Download the file below V

Place the folder somewhere accessible that you will remember. I recommend creating a new folder in "C:\Program Files\Adobe" called "Icons"

Step 2

Right click on the shortcut whose Icon you want to change and click on "Properties" and then "Change Icon..."

Click "Browse..." and navigate to the folder downloaded in Step 1 and select the icon you want to use and press "open"

Step 3

Violia! We have our new icons! Wasn't that easy!

Sadly every time you update the software you will need to repeat this process, but as long as you have the .ico files it should be pretty painless.

If you found this helpful let me know! Hopefully one day adobe will get their shit together and this guide will be obsolete. Hell maybe we'll even get lucky and they'll start using the 2001 icons again. *sigh* A girl can dream...
