What is the best website for free midi files?

How is music produced?

In order to make any type of specific music you have to use the correct samples. Dubturbo 2.0 comes with several thousand samples, meaning that you can make most any type of music you want with just those samples. However, if you want to make dubstep beats then you need to use dubstep sounding samples.

For instance, I did a quick search on Google for "wobble bass samples" and found some affordable sample kits. Just make sure to buy the .WAV file format and then you can easily import those samples into DUBturbo (the Windows version only).

You can of course adjust the BPM to a much higher rate for the dubstep type beats and add drops into your songs too. I would recommend watching some of the free tutorial videos within the members' area.

Is there a device to turn audio recording into text?

Yes. Dragon Naturally Speaking dictation software is supposed to be able to get text from a recording, though in my opinion, it make far too many mistakes.

Yes, the base of the Snowball is a standard 5/8" thread and will fit on to a standard North American microphone stand. Note that the pivot of the base of the Snowball is limited, so it really only works with vertical microphone stand shafts, not horizontal booms.

How do you auto tune your mic?

You can't autotune the mic itself- autotune is controlled by the recording software. Look for an option or setting in your program that allows you to turn it on.

This setting is usually called something like "Pitch Correction" or "Enhance Tuning."

What does INXS-y stand for?

How do people get instrumentals so clear?

A combination of how instruments are recorded with microphones and any treatment or effects help isolate instruments in a mix.

If you have two instruments in the same bass range - such as a kick drum and bass guitar - EQ or equalization can help separate the instruments. You can dial down or bring up frequencies that conflict.

You can also pan instruments left or right to various degrees.

There are other detailed ways to get more clarity out of instruments in a mix, but those two are the basic, most obvious things to try.
