Could really find a mentor extremely helpful

neworleanstrumpetguy

I am a professional instrumentalist who’s starting his journey in production relatively late in life. Although I must say everyone I have spoken to has told me the content I have created thus far on the Maschine + is extremely awesome for a beginner producer.

That being said, I know the things that I lack in knowledge, and I don’t want to have to go to get another degree just to learn what I need to learn in order to accomplish the things I want to accomplish.

What exactly is it that I want to accomplish you say? Well fellow creators, I will give you a rough answer:

I want to make the ultimate live performance music rig with the ability to record everything I’m doing Live onto tracks and put them with video content. In being able to accomplish that, I want to eventually be known for throwing some of the best pop-up performances the US has ever seen.

Now I know this is a BOLD undertaking, but I have the equipment, I just need some teaching as far as full production , setting up my rig the most efficient way possible, and learning the skills that I lack in order to make this undertaking possible.

I’m hoping that I can be taken under someone’s wing in the physical realm, so if there are ANY NEW ORLEANS MASCHINE & TRAKTOR & KK PROFESSIONALS AROUND, please, can anybody point me to them?

If not, then I’ll settle for the next best thing, which is ANY MENTOR willing to take me in and show me as much as possible via Zoom or Facebook Messenger or SOMETHING like that.

my music is really quite good.

My natural talent and practiced skills on trumpet, guitar, keyboard, beatbox, raps, and singing vox are definitely great.

My improv abilities are REALLY quite proficient.

I need to learn how to mix, how to get into a good workflow, how to live loop and mix my songs with relevant songs to present times between Maschine and Traktor.

on a side quest I really want to purchase a proper pedal for Guitar Rig 7 so that I may utilize it to the best of my ability and possibly add guitar to the live performance and at the same time keep everything NKS.

I also could use anybody interested in improving on my first iteration of the actual rig that I have built in order to make it portable and useable in any medium from street performance all the way up to festival stages, just to say I can, not really expecting to play at any festivals anytime soon, but one can dream to be back on tour after 5 years being off the road.

Ok that’s my huge explanation. I explained a little bit of this before I had the rig built, and built a rig based on the answers I got. And now that I have been in the field, I want to put out a v2.0 of the system that I have. Please, master miagi, message me so I can learn your ways sir! Lol
