Fun Stuff

[CGEyeGuy]

I must say noise is some fun stuff.
Been playing around with it a bit.

1.) normalize
2.) I like it
3.) of course noise is fun. there's a reason I have a noise keyboard preset in z3ta

yeah we really haven't seen a load of experimental/noise bronie artists (all this is more of minimal / ambient techno music to be honest. interesting and sounded nice if a bit chaotic in structure overall.

It seems that it actually is normalized... Did you use compression at all? 'Cause this piece has too brutal differences in volume I think. Otherwise it's nice!

Thanks! Now that I have used noise I want to make more stuff with it!

Yeah I was going to try to use mostly noise, but I found it a little limiting so I decided to make it more ambient. I am however going to experiment with more stuff though.

Yeah I did use compression, but it was very light and the volume changes were done last. I added a little heavier compression on it now. How's it sound?

hmmmmm... I'm not sure how great role you want the noise to play, but I'd drop the noise down. Now it sort of drowns everything else and consumes all the channel space. Notice, that lower end frequencies need to be alot louder to be heard than higher ones.
Also pay attention at 2:33-ish: You get some distortion, because volume exceeds limiter's threshold too much.
And at 1:17 you can hear a snap, which can be fixed (if need be) by giving the noise a bit longer attack time. Or perhaps by reducing compressor's attack time but never set it to 0! That causes distortion too.
