As @aubeynarf@lemmynsfw.com pointed out, it'd be best to read the rules regarding advertising. That being said, and how I interpret the rules, it'd be fine to share in an appropriate community. I'd suggest being prudent and making sure it's cool with the mods of the community, much like you're doing here. I feel like !musicproduction@lemmy.ml, !imadethis@lemm.ee, or !music@beehaw.org (which specifically says posting your own music is cool) would be good places to start.
Also dm me when you post, I'd love to give it a listen and learn about the tools you used
Awesome, thanks for the advice! And I will for sure let you know when I upload it somewhere, but I can tell you the tools I use right now! I've got Ardour for my DAW, I'm using a mix of the Ardour community plugins, LSP parametric equalizer, Calf compressor, and the two non-FOSS ones are Graillon 3 auto tune and Acon Digital Multiply. Drums are via Hydrogen, with the Ian Paice and Travis Barker drumkits from sourceforge, and I think I yanked Dave Grohl's toms for one song. Some other various drum effects I got off of Pixabay. The main album art is going to be handmade because I suck at GIMP, but if I get enough support to make like, a vinyl pressing or something, then I'll include all my failed attempts at album art in the liner notes lol
Thanks for sharing! I was using Ableton before the pandemic, then had to take a break after my son was born. I went back to it a few months ago and what I purchased wasn't transferrable to a version that worked on my computer 😡. I love learning about open source tools like this, and I'll definitely be checking them out. Thanks for sharing!
No problem! It's worth noting that both of those non-FOSS plugins I mentioned are both free as in "free beer", so if you need a good auto tune and/or fancy chorus, check those out!
