Audiotool - Free Music Software - Make Music Online In Your Browser Best Animation Websites | Web Design Inspiration Animation is the rapid display of a sequence of images that create an illusion of movement. The effect is an optical illusion of motion created by the phenomenon of persistence of vision, and can be achieved in several ways, the most common being as a motion picture or video. Animation has been about since before the web began, enhancing visual content and, in many cases, animation is used to highlight the interface. Today, animation is not just part of a websites content, it’s a fundamental feature, essential to increasing interaction with the site. Since CSS3 was rolled out across most major browsers and devices, we have witnessed an important evolution of animation techniques.

Freddie Mercury’s “Somebody To Love” Vocal Track Surfaces, And It’s An Absolute Masterpiece | Society Of Rock Incredibly Rare, Incredibly Beautiful! If there were ever a Queen song that made me itch to hear what Freddie Mercury sounded like a cappella, it would be “Somebody To Love”. It’s already an incredibly powerful song – the woeful tale of a man begging God to send him love, sung as only someone of Freddie Mercury’s caliber could, but when you factor in Freddie’s massive 4-octave vocal range completely on its own you’re in for an incredible, once in a lifetime treat as you are with his vocal track from the 1976 classic. “Somebody To Love” is Aretha Franklin-influenced.

How to Create a Cheap, Battery-Powered Production If you work at an after-school music program, maybe this dilemma will sound familiar: Your students want to learn how to make music, but maybe not the kind they find in their school's classical, marching band, or choral curricula. The Music & Youth Initiative came up with a cost-effective way to get powerful, contemporary music-making tools into the hands of students. The battery-powered workstation the group devised has everything students need to create modern pop, hip-hop, R&B, or other current music, and it will cost just about $1,000 total. Music & Youth is not new to such endeavors. For 15 years, the organization has been launching and supporting music programs for children in low-income neighborhoods. "Over the years, we realized that many Boys & Girls Clubs and other Youth Development programs are hosted in shared spaces like school cafeterias, community centers, and housing developments," Music & Youth's David Bickel says.

Compressor Attack and Release Times Explained - Audio Issues : Audio Issues I’m going to tell you a secret no one in the music business wants you to know. Learning how to properly use compression is hard. Everybody thinks they understand how to use a compressor way before they actually do. Sure, they know what all the knobs are for, but most of the time they’re either recalling presets, dialing in the same go-to settings for every song or just spinning knobs until something cool happens. It’s hard to hear the subtle differences between different attack and release settings—especially without knowing what you’re listening for. Compressor Controls On a technical level, the controls of a compressor are pretty simple. The Threshold setting determines when the compressor actually begins compressing. The Ratio setting determines how much the compressor reduces or attenuates the signal. The Attack setting controls how long the compressor takes to compress the signal, while the release setting controls how long the compressor takes to let go. Attack Slow Attack Fast Attack

Introduction The 'Mixing Secrets' Free Multitrack Download Library Below is a list of multitrack projects which can be freely downloaded for mixing practice purposes. All these projects are presented as ZIP archives containing uncompressed WAV files (24-bit or 16-bit resolution and 44.1kHz sample rate). For maximum mixdown flexibility, the contributors have made every effort to provide audio ‘raw’, in other words without additional effects or processing (beyond treatments printed during tracking/editing). When importing the tracks, just make sure all the files start at exactly the same moment in time within your DAW’s timeline. (Download problems?) As well as the multitracks hosted directly on this site, I’ve also included links to a few other decent downloads I’ve discovered on other sites. All downloads from this site are provided free of charge for educational purposes only, and the material contained in them should not be used for any commercial purpose without the express permission of the copyright holders.
