Which one was harder for you?

This question is absurd. Please do not start threads anymore.

Don't mind the DJ crowd around here, they can get a bit testy at times.

i really dont understand, because learning synthesis was more harder for me. Song structure is just you have to make good melodies and some mixing, mastering knowledges.

can someone tell me i'm wrong?

Learning sound design is pretty easy. I think mixing, mastering and creating is harder.

Your not wrong, it's just different for everyone.

I don't even know how to break down my workflow because i learned everything sort of randomly. I never followed any formal education, i taught myself from video tutorials, experimenting *LOTS*, and using my ears for about 11 years now.

I could have probably saved a lot of time by going a formal route. It would have saved me lots of time, but who knows i probably would have not learned what i have learned so far. As far as sound design goes I can hear lots of complex stuff now and know ways in my head to reproduce similar results. It's kind of distracting when i'm complexing on non musical things and a song plays on the radio.. lol

Fish or something like that. Neither were difficult compared to learning how to play an instrument.

No that's not what i'm talking about, i'm just considering if i didn't learn music structure properly, i know how to make melody, know how to use some effects, mixing, mastering. is there more than this?

Well it depends.. on what you want to do and what kind of music you intend to create. If you decide to produce Glitch/IDM stuff you'll find the workflow in song sound design is very very different from doing something like making generic EDM.

Also you can't really have mastered mixing and mastering unless you went and got a degree in it

It's some seriously deep shit.

Ok this is new question.

If i separate music as 2 parts,

1. melody making,

2. all other stuffs (sound making, mixing etc.)

which one do you think is most harder?

How about you just go make music? All of it can be hard, it just depends on what your doing.

Which one was harder for you? Sound designing vs Song structure(mixing, mastering etc.)
