How to ask for help?

Postby RZSparkle » 13 Jan 2012 17:55

So, first post
*yay*

Anyways, I have a strange question, regarding being new. How exactly do you ask for help? As in, If you have something that you don't really think is good but you don't know how to really improve it. I mean, is that something you are supposed to *figure out* yourself or ........ not.

Anyways, sorry for the awkwardness. I'm kinda new sooo.... I really don't know if this is even a good question to ask or not.

Edit: Just to elaborate. How do you start out actually releasing stuff and the like. I mean I've played around with Ableton and *know* how to use it, but I can't really make anything good
Styles: Drum & Bass, WUBStep, Breakbeat-ish Stuff, House, pretty much anything
Stuff: Ableton Live, Grado SR-60i

If its a song, you can post it as a WIP (Work in Progress) and ask for feedback.

If it's certain technique you can ask in the technique forum.

Or you can just send me a PM and i'd be happy to help whatever way I can!

I usually just go on the irc post the soundcloud and ask, "what should I do?"
