For the first topic of 2025, I would like to introduce the computer I use.
I built my own computer. It has old specs from a while ago, but so far it has not caused any major problems in creating music.
CPU
AMD Ryzen 5 3600
Main board
ASRock X570 Phantom Gaming 4
Memory
DDR 4, 32 GBytes
GPU
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER
Audio Interface
steinberg UR22C
Monitor Speaker
YAMAHA HS50M
簡単ですが、以上です。次回は使用ソフトをご紹介したいと思います。
That's it. Next time, I'll introduce the software I used.
DTM: Desktop Music (Episode 30)
今回は現状使用しているソフト編です。OS は Windows で、DAW には Cubase Pro を使用しています。Cubase Pro の現在の最新バージョンは 14 なのですが、常に新しいものには更新出来ないので現在は 12 にとどまっています。VST Instrument は Cubase Pro に付属の HALion Sonic をメインに使っていますが、ドラム音源には MODO Drum (IK Multimedia) を使用しています。このソフトはフィジカル・モデリングを採用していて、様々なカスタマイズが可能になっています。
This time, I will tell you about the software I am currently using. I used Windows OS and Cubase Pro as the DAW. The latest version of Cubase Pro is 14, but I cannot update it frequently, so I am stuck on 12. I primarily use HALion Sonic, which is included with Cubase Pro, as a VST instrument, and MODO Drum (IK Multimedia) as a drum sound source. The software uses physical modeling and allows for various customizations.
Now, here is the song for this topic. The title is "Dappled Sunlight." It starts with a natural comp guitar melody that expresses a scene of gentle sunlight, and develops into a slightly distorted guitar, synth, and piano solo. I hope you enjoy listening to it at your leisure.
