Controversial opinions

By the mid 1980s Milli Vanilli and A-ha had become SO talented and omnipresent that the big honcho’s in the music industry started to feel threatened, which is why they secretly invented MDMA, E and rave culture in a ploy to distract our attention away from the afore mentioned musical geniuses, and to gain back control.
 
Had Morten Harket just been a tad bit less goodlooking, we might have had an entirely different film scoring scene today and he would have been the actually talented version of Johnny Greenwood.

I am glad you recognize yourself as turdish. It is important for the turds to make themselves known so the non-turds can stay turd-free.

Controversial opinion: When Celine's above video opens up we hear a lovely melody played by a real recorder. Wha???? No, no, nooooooo :mad:, should have used a vi instead!

Couldn't make it past 18 seconds in. [joking]

Agreed! Ever since Fractured Sounds gifted 'Emotional Recorder' to the world, I find real recorders wholly lacking ;)

Arrrrgh! Are you joking? That is a tin whistle! :mad: You can clearly see it! :mad: It doesn't look or sound anything like a recorder! :mad:
 
Controversial on this board? Ha.
  • Waves plugins are really great.
  • WUP is actually a fair business model at its core (I STRONGLY OPPOSE SUBSCRIPTIONS THOUGH)
  • Fabfilter is nothing special sonically and gets most of its praise due to the GUI design.
  • 8dio libraries are fantastic
  • If you can't make music that sounds like the demos, it isn't the libraries fault.
  • If you bought a library that goes on sale at a cheaper price later and complain, it is on you - not on the company.
  • The majority of people complaining about sample library inadequacies are just projecting their own inadequacies and internal battles and should use that energy instead to better their craft.
  • Key changes on a third chorus in a pop song (when done right) are extremely powerful and not cheesy
  • 80s hair band ballads are actually very well done
  • No word or cultural appropriation concept should be banned from use by anyone else. Period.
  • Spotify‘s Top lists are purely marketing and not really a reflection of peoples actual interests
  • Spectral balancing and resonance removal kills the emotion in a song
  • Scores were better when written to a final locked edit of the film
  • LUFs are a horrible, terrible standard for final mixes and masters
  • A mix should largely follow a vocal‘s performance and dynamics rather than automating the vocal to sit at the same level in a mix.
  • If you have to delegate because you don’t have the skills to do it, you shouldn’t have that job.
 
Okay, here's two:

(1) At some point - and sooner than you think - the John Williams / Hans Zimmer era of orchestral film scoring will end, and the people gearing up for THAT will inherit the earth!

(2) While we're at it, Boba Fett is the most overrated character in the Star Wars universe.
