Waveform

Since this community is going away and at least one other person sounded interested in a Discord server, I've gone ahead and created one:

https://discord.gg/CsGN9zzC

I've created channels for synthesizers and music production so far, but I'm very open to adding other channels depending on interest. If this doesn't get any traction in the next week or so it will probably be abandoned, so please drop in soon if you're at all interested.

(I'm "Thoughtquake" on Discord.)

just curious where else synth/electronic music people are headed. thanks! all the best!

Anyone still here?

Hi there,

I have decided to take down waveform.social. There are too many nefarious actors trying to break it and I don't have the time or energy to keep fighting them off.

For your information: Over the pas month I have had to:

1. Add various DDOS prevention measures to block unwanted (repeated) signups.
2. Delete a bunch of literal white noise uploads that filled my 4TB picture storage... Twice.
3. Repair Lemmy (or rather pictures) after it crashed because of full storage.

I will keep waveform.social active until Friday next week so you can pull data from here, though I expect most of it has been federated to other servers anyway.

i’m thagodnebu and he’s ilovekaelen together we make THAGODKAELEN and we’re making an 11 track album together over the internet. we don’t even know each others real names. don’t need to. anyways, if you give the track a spin lmk your thoughts.

Might be a good idea, what do you think?

I am thinking about adding some functionality to this instance (audio and video upload) which probably requires me to make changes to the themes.

To limit the amount of work I have to do, would you please let me know what theme you are using?

1. Visit your settings to check: https://waveform.social/settings
2. Fill out the poll: https://fast-poll.com/poll/903a1e38

So Lemmy (the software that runs this website) allows admins to define taglines. When people visit the website a random one shows up.

Any funny suggestions that work with the theme of this instance?

Hi there,

This site has a focus on music. Not being able to share audio clips makes no sense. Of course you can use a third party tool to share audio clips but I think the barrier is too big.

Here’s what I want to do: I want to create a micro application that allows people to upload audio or video clips to be able to embed them into their posts. The design goals are:

• low barrier of entry
• good viewing experience
• useful on mobile

Now I can easily do the technical stuff (upload and store files, embedding, deployment) but I’ve always had a hard time with graphical design for small apps with very few features.

Would any of you have the skills and time to contribute a design?

What’s the plan @ChappIO? Curious

Sorry too demanding. I'm just asking a favor.

I started a music production community on sh.itjust.works here and I want to crosspost my stuff from there so that music-centered instances can get better content and traction. I'm new to Lemmy as most people seem to be right now, so I don't really know how to approach this best. I don't see any pre-made general music production community on Waveform and I'm okay with making my own and keeping an eye on it.

Would creating a separate community here from a local account and then giving myself mod at my instance be a good idea or should I do something different (per your advice)?

Sounds pretty suspicious to me.

Is there a reason we're not Federated with https://lemmit.online?

I'd like to subscribe to the Home Assistant community there.

It seems everything is doomed these days: https://raddle.me/f/lobby/155371/warning-lemmy-doesn-t-care-about-your-privacy-everything-is

EDIT: Looks like lemmy is totally fine and we can feel like home without worrying too much.

Looking for other Reaper users. Would love a category for Reaper discussions as well

Hi folks. I am hoping to find some people that are into algorithmic composition, creating music with code, designing algorithms, etc.

• Are you one of those people?
• Do you know others?
• Can you recommend any other communities for that?
• Is there interest for having that kind of community here?

Thanks!

I would love to hear about any podcasts / audio books / lectures regarding electronic music / synthesis / audio you may like/ know of.

I found this one recently, art+music+technology podcast... various guests from far and wide corners of electronic music and synthesizer circles from present back to the beginning.
https://artmusictech.libsyn.com/ sadly the host passed away lat year, but the archive remains.

Will this make my Subsy37 worth more? I jest of course. I hope this isn't the beginning of the end for Moog.

And yes, it's pronounced MOOG.

I would occasionally pop into the LiveSound and AudioEngineering subreddits. Is there any interest in hosting those here? They seem to fit in with the theme of this server. Just a thought!

I'm just wondering how upvotes work. I noticed that I already had one upvote on each of my comments and assumed someone else had done it, then noticed that the up arrow button was blue, implying that I had done it. Do you automatically upvote your own comments, or did I press something by accident? heh :)
