My 2 cents.

It's usually way more worth the effort to spend the time writing a better song, rather than doing over the top complicated production techniques for some kind of aesthetic.  However if you do spend the time, you might learn a few production related things along the way.

I agree, however, over the top complicated techniques are a great way to build a sound in a way it might have been previously lacking. For example, my lsdj tracks for up to a year were very bland and discouraging until i found your tutorials on youtube. Spending a lot of time on my synths have turned bland tracks into bangers. But the same goes for everything. I intern with a grammy award winning producer and some of the stuff he does to his tracks is absolutely-mind-blowingly-incredible as far as processing goes. It's nuckin futs. I'm not saying composition isn't important. I wouldn't record something I didn't think was a masterpiece. I just think these extra tricks are gonna make it jump out from all the other amazing compositions. it really wraps it up all nice in a tight gift to the world of iphone earbuds and laptop speakers.

a lot of convolution reverbs take advantage of stereoness, you know like how it sounds when you hear it naturally. 

Meanwhile, unless you were recording it with a nice stereo mic setup, you'd lose that in the process.

Like... two microphones with a block of wood the size of your head between them?

Not so much unfortunately. You can buy mics that are placed in a mannequin head that are supposed to give you Binaural Sound, however its all just different EQ tricks and algorithms. The shape of our ears and other factors (glasses, long hair, body type, etc.) changes a lot in regards to how we hear things. I wish it was that easy:/

But going with this sort of approach you can follow these stereo mic techniques

Velocity is definitely something I realized I would miss. But yes I've tried doing things like finger drumming on akai drum pads, and the pads are just not comfortable. I've had experience with this buttons on Arduino Devices, and I see them as a super fun alternative.

I was wondering if anyone here at cm.o had a Spectra. (https://store.djtechtools.com/products/ … er-spectra)
I'm looking to get one but wanted to do a little research before I went all out and bought one. Does anyone have any experience with these Controllers? Is there any reason I should not buy one?

I honestly think they look really fun, and pretty close to what I want/need in a controller.

EDIT: I'm also looking to use this device with Ableton.

I'm currently teaching myself ableton, and trying to get used to the program, so I'll use the wavs to make loops and demo the DAW. If anything comes out of it, I'll send it your way!
