  RE: [Closed] Coronavirus Lockdown - Covid19
  @Jochen-S it's great to create something on the day depending on your mood, when I am sad it's ambient. when I am relaxed it's chillout. When I am feeling energetic it's trance. When I am feeling uptight it's rock. When I am feeling hip, it's hop.

  I can't figure out this time stretch thing at all.
  If I want to distortion and to create ambient type of music by stretching the loop or the sound, I cannot do that in Music Maker can I? The only way to extend or stretch the music is to have it repeat over and over again correct?

  RE: Should ambient sounds be centred?
    As an example, you could record the general stereo sound of a busy shopping mall with people passing buy, background chatter etc. To that, you could add your subject talking to a friend in a close up shot, which would need to be recorded in

  RE: Should ambient sounds be centred?

  @FelixDunn Hi Felix. There is no ultimate best way. Try both and see which works best within that mix. A lot will depend on how the ambient acoustics of the track you wish to place into the soundscape blends with the ambience of the track it's

  RE: How to create distance in audio?
  @FelixDunn First. You don't have to, but is often desirable to reduce possible confusing/contradicting ambient sound information within the mix. Equally, you could just pan both channels to the desired locations within the mix if the effect needs to
