wiki categorization: different kinds of music?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I feel like there's different types of music production.  For instance, I think recording a live Jazz band is different than working with a soundtracker clone.

I believe this distinction may be important because people have a broad set of ideas of what kind of music they'd like to do and it may be appropriate to divide the tools into different "camps".  The camps aren't mutually exclusive.

The three camps I'm tentative thinking of are

  1. microphone recorded
  2. synthetically orchestrated
  3. experimental

To further build this rational, many times when trying music software I think "clearly this is a well-thought out piece of software. I just must not know what I'm doing. Let me toil some more" only to conclude after many weeks that it wasn't designed to do what I'm looking for but instead does something adjacent to it.  Alternatively, one could argue this was a false impression I hastily concluded and in fact I dismissed a potentially great tool because I didn't give it enough time to learn.

Has anyone else thought about this?
