    It is very stupid. Pathetic excuse for humans. LOL

    Yeah I know ^.^ I'm hardly a fan considering contemporary indie pisses me off (and seems to be all that these Apple kids listen to). I dunno.

    Nice! But that sucks at the same time, the guitar effects sound very lame to me. Definitely a huge noticable difference between a real one and a synth one. But meh... Also a trick I wanted to show you, is that you can "draw" what you want to play. When you select a sample of music that you have played, you can edit it. Or make it entirely from scratch. For instance:

    You can also do this with the drum machine (it's how I get such accurate drum measures).

    Apple Fanboys. The majority of them listen to garbage. LOL

    The best guitar app I have seen if the one from Moocowmusic. Havn't tried many other but it gets the job done. Don't think you can mix the recordings into Beatmaker though without PC help.

    http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/guitarist/id288105363?mt=8

    Glad you liked my mini tutorial! hahaha but more importantly, glad you found it. It's essential for perfecting the sound of things.

    Ah. : DDD

    Hmm, looks good but not being able to use with BM without PC sucks. :<
    Can't even record from my touch with PC anyway.


    Hah, yeah. :>


    It's just so annoying, that I barely have music education. And I'd be lazy to get any. : D

    Yeah it's pretty much a stand alone app that is just used for minor guitar playing, nothing else. And without any music program software on your PC it's pretty useless.

    I pretty much have no music education. I learned everything by ear and picked up from there, then taught myself some stuff. I suck. lol

    Yeah I figured, that's why I don't think that app would be great for you.

    Yeah but not by much. I use a lot of distortion. Makes you sound better than you really are ^.^

    Yup.

    Hah, I really doubt I ever could make metal with anything btw. : DD

    And another problem with BM - I just fail to create the right... hmm.. atmosphere with it. :/

    I'm sure you could. Just gotta learn a little guitar. Learn some Power Chords and you have yourself a song.

    I am a firm believer in the fact that a great atmosphere for a song is reflected by how you feel on the inside. Something won't sound right simply because you are not in the mood for it. I have this problem all the time with my music, I will create a good sounding riff, or a cool sounding piece to the music, and the next day it will sound like complete garbage. I have no idea. LOL I mean of course you should know a little about music for it, but it definitely can be done without it.

    Take this song for instance:



    They actually have little idea how to play the guitar in this album. No music theory or anything. They literally just played what sounded good. And you can tell... there are hardly any real chords or anything.

    Nah, I just don't feel that I have ideas for that. It my favorite genre, so this is weird. : D

    Yeah, true. It's just.. hard for me. : D

    This actually doesn't sound bad. :>>

    Meh, going to take this BM stuff slowly.

    I get ya man. :D

    Keep at it bro it will get easier.

    Yeah it sounds fantastic! I love At The Drive-In, but I read in an intervew with the 2 guitarists that they listerally didn't know how to play the guitar in their first 2 albums. They kind of just picked it up and played what sounded good. Had no music theory at all. You should look into that album "In-Casino-Out" it's really energetic and fun. But like I said, a classic example of how someone can make music even though it may look like gibberish on paper.

    Definitely. That god damn program is not something you pick up over night that's for sure. And anything I can help out with technical wise I'd be more than happy to help. The music part is all you though baby.

    I would not say fantastic, maybe it sounds.. alright? :>
    I'll look at it sometime.

    I'll surely ask for help if I need any. :>

    Yes I would go as far as saying it's fantastic music. LOL. I've loved ATDI since I first heard them when their first album came out. I though it was the most deranged shit I have ever heard at the time. But definitely check it out. It's definitely fun.

    I know ^.^ I'm still waiting on a sample of something you have made! damnit!

    You will.. Umm, someday. When I have at least a minute ready. :>

    Absolutely terrible, as a matter of fact, it's pretty much non existant. Instead of changing how I have been eating (well I have changed a few things, less soda, portion control, etc.) I have just been working out more. When i can anyways. Today is the first day in a long time I have just threw all caution out the window and have eaten well over 5 peoples worth of Chinese food. LOL

    Ian has been very difficult to have go to bed as of late and it's really affecting everything though. Hard to find time for myself anymore. Blah. I'm not mad though... he's a kid. Can't help it.

    Ouch, well, good luck. Sound like a more sensible option. I would absolutely hate the monotonity of working out though.


    Doesn't sound very good. I guess it'll be years later when I can tolerate even hearing about a little kid doing stuff like that. >.<


    My touch just.. somehow filled 500Mbs. Not even the slightest idea how.

    Yeah it kind of is more sensible. At least for me. Dieting sucks. lol. Working out is actually fun after a while. It gives you energy and plus you just basically become stronger than you were before. That's always a plus. LOL

    Yeah it's... rough. Really rough man. Me and my wife and literally worn the f*ck out. But there isn't much we can do except suck it up and deal with it. I know that may sound mean or whatever but it's stressful. But all the hardships of having a kid are easily overshadowed by all the great things he brings us. He's a great kid. I just wish he would sleep in his own bed again. lol. Well he does when he first goes to bed, then when he wakes up however many hours later he won't sleep in his own bed anymore. He cries hysterically. I dunno. It's weird. Wait for kids.

    wtf? That is just weird... tried restarting it? That shouldn't have happened.

    Meh, I would hate it, trust me. And I doubt it would be good at my age. :>

    Well, good luck with putting up with that stuff. I guess it'll be worth it. Kids later can be awesome. Like, my age. Especially me.

    Happened while playing with BM2, the computer shows it's "Other" stuff, so I guess that's it. :> Deleting after saving the stuff then reinstalling.
