would like to learn. Why make the thread and have no references

You must not know what music theory is

Need to learn more bout it as a producer

I know basics about scales, chords, harmonies, etc.

ur a f***ing neek

I know some stuff regarding scales but not much at all

also hard for me to make out notes at times

Yo I've been trying to improve my audiation skills for a while. I've gotten the minor pentatonic, major pentatonic and major scale down but I still find myself having to depend on the piano to play what I'm thinking in my head. I know doing solfege and singing as you solo helps but I find that this has been a slow process. Any tips?

Solfege is definitely the right idea, I'm not a master at playing everything I hear but I'm sure if you really drill that, sight singing, and transposing you'll definitely be on the right path.

My Jazz Trumpet professor was REALLY big on sight singing, we used to do it more than we actually played the instrument most days. He'd pull up like an etude book or a solo I transcribed and get me to sing the notes as it's written and help out on the piano if I can't get it. It definitely helped a lot.

Just realized that looking at partitions all the time wasnt for me at all tbh since Im more interested with production and sound engineering and I didnt feel confortable at all with the people there so I dipped out as quick as I could lol

Sure I’ll make a thread on it. Was just curious how many would even care first

Kanye knows how to program drums and samples and play simple things man dont discredit him

Yo thanks for the reply

I just got one question

How the F*** do you make practicing counterpoint not boring as s*** ?

Yes

Absolutely don’t care it’s the least necessary sense.

Whats a necessary sense

There are definitely codes to this melody ish

Touch

Studying sound design for films and games ! Sound is king !

Like you're doing a degree for it?

Not sight, hearing or smell. .. you pick touch lol Im sure you would last long in the wild if you were blind and deaf

Technical school certificate, college in the US is a scam

Cool are you interested in producing or just engineering

Yeah I produce as well for fun. But career wise I’m focused on the science of sound design through sampling and a***og modulation
