1
00:00:00,166 --> 00:00:00,799
so right now
2
00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:02,466
we're ready to start on song one
3
00:00:02,466 --> 00:00:03,266
and usually
4
00:00:03,266 --> 00:00:06,699
the way that I start a song is with one sound
5
00:00:06,766 --> 00:00:08,899
um and that sound
6
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:10,600
in this case being uh
7
00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:11,266
I have this like
8
00:00:11,266 --> 00:00:13,399
melody in my head that I want to
9
00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:14,333
uh start with
10
00:00:14,333 --> 00:00:16,366
and then I'll put the chords under that melody
11
00:00:16,366 --> 00:00:18,299
um so let's think of a melody right now
12
00:00:18,300 --> 00:00:20,000
that can play throughout the entire song
13
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:21,500
that won't be annoying you
14
00:00:21,500 --> 00:00:22,400
you can't see them
15
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:24,666
but I have a whole friendly crew behind me
16
00:00:24,666 --> 00:00:26,233
helping me film this for you
17
00:00:26,300 --> 00:00:29,066
and the way that they're
18
00:00:29,066 --> 00:00:31,399
this is gonna sound pretty crazy
19
00:00:31,466 --> 00:00:33,733
but the way that they're speaking right now
20
00:00:33,733 --> 00:00:35,299
like they're average
21
00:00:35,300 --> 00:00:36,600
like how um
22
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:37,700
he's speaking right now
23
00:00:37,700 --> 00:00:38,966
he was hitting like
24
00:00:38,966 --> 00:00:40,299
a d flat and an F
25
00:00:40,300 --> 00:00:42,133
and the F is the major third of the d flat
26
00:00:42,133 --> 00:00:44,933
and I'm thinking that I want the song to be in d flat
27
00:00:44,933 --> 00:00:48,966
I have no idea why I just thought of that right now
28
00:00:48,966 --> 00:00:51,999
I'm far fetched and weird
29
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:54,200
but then he said
30
00:00:55,300 --> 00:00:56,400
so why don't you just like
31
00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:58,066
start talking about like this
32
00:00:58,066 --> 00:00:59,066
that and that
33
00:00:59,066 --> 00:01:02,666
and then he said he was kind of talking out of d flat
34
00:01:02,666 --> 00:01:04,399
which is d flat
35
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:05,200
and then I'm thinking
36
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:05,800
I want to make it
37
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:10,200
I don't really make a lot of songs in d flat and um
38
00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:13,100
I feel like whatever song I make right now
39
00:01:13,100 --> 00:01:14,666
I'm gonna uh
40
00:01:14,666 --> 00:01:16,833
it's gonna be something that I'm not like
41
00:01:16,900 --> 00:01:18,766
it's gonna be a comfortable song
42
00:01:18,766 --> 00:01:20,833
which is a song that I
43
00:01:20,966 --> 00:01:21,866
you know my isms
44
00:01:21,866 --> 00:01:24,033
my Charlie isms are gonna be all over
45
00:01:24,066 --> 00:01:24,999
and this song
46
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:26,266
but there's gonna be something like
47
00:01:26,266 --> 00:01:27,366
10% different about it
48
00:01:27,366 --> 00:01:28,266
because I have
49
00:01:28,566 --> 00:01:30,266
you know some friends watching me
50
00:01:30,533 --> 00:01:33,366
and you watching me right now as I make it
51
00:01:33,366 --> 00:01:34,466
so it's bound to be just like
52
00:01:34,466 --> 00:01:35,633
a little bit of different
53
00:01:35,866 --> 00:01:36,766
a little bit of different
54
00:01:36,766 --> 00:01:38,699
I can't even speak right now
55
00:01:38,700 --> 00:01:41,566
I want to just get this down before I forget it
56
00:01:41,566 --> 00:01:43,766
so there has to be like a
57
00:01:46,300 --> 00:01:48,900
like hmm if it's in d flat
58
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:52,400
just like say that tempo is probably gonna get fat
59
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:54,433
I always seem to like make things faster
60
00:01:54,533 --> 00:01:59,399
um it's like maybe like 95 98
61
00:02:04,066 --> 00:02:07,266
I'll just loop that over oh here here's the loop
62
00:02:19,133 --> 00:02:19,699
probably just like
63
00:02:19,700 --> 00:02:20,866
repeat that over and over again
64
00:02:20,866 --> 00:02:21,766
I'm always like oh
65
00:02:21,766 --> 00:02:25,433
the back half of the melody has to be different
66
00:02:26,133 --> 00:02:26,999
from the front half
67
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:28,766
but it just has to be the same
68
00:02:37,900 --> 00:02:39,866
maybe like a trumpet or something I don't know
69
00:02:39,866 --> 00:02:42,166
I'm not I'll worry about the sound later
70
00:02:42,733 --> 00:02:45,433
but then I'll take my phone and just kind of
71
00:02:47,166 --> 00:02:48,599
I'll just loop that over
72
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:50,766
sidebar why does
73
00:02:50,766 --> 00:02:53,166
your voice always sound different when it's recorded
74
00:03:11,066 --> 00:03:12,933
I said it was gonna I said it was gonna be trumpet
75
00:03:12,933 --> 00:03:15,066
but now it's turned it to
76
00:03:16,566 --> 00:03:20,166
by the way I'm using Analog Lab right now
77
00:03:21,266 --> 00:03:23,766
I just just going through random sounds
78
00:03:24,133 --> 00:03:27,033
I could take this and
79
00:03:27,733 --> 00:03:30,366
you know put that into literally text it to myself
80
00:03:30,366 --> 00:03:31,933
and just put it in the Pro Tools and tune it
81
00:03:31,933 --> 00:03:32,733
and I just don't
82
00:03:32,733 --> 00:03:34,599
I always do that though I wanna
83
00:03:34,733 --> 00:03:38,199
I would love nothing more to do that but oh
84
00:03:40,333 --> 00:03:41,699
it's like it's so weird
85
00:03:41,700 --> 00:03:43,266
I had this is a melotron sound
86
00:03:43,266 --> 00:03:44,666
and I have the real one right there
87
00:03:44,666 --> 00:03:47,033
but I'm not gonna use it cause
88
00:03:49,566 --> 00:03:51,433
something with attack I don't
89
00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:57,866
like that's too ugly
90
00:03:58,333 --> 00:03:59,933
you don't want the sound to be like offensive
91
00:03:59,933 --> 00:04:01,899
it's just like should be like blend in
92
00:04:06,733 --> 00:04:10,199
that's cool it doesn't really sound like a choir no
93
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:20,700
you know what
94
00:04:20,700 --> 00:04:24,366
I might end up doing what I said I wasn't gonna do
95
00:04:24,366 --> 00:04:26,999
and using what I just recorded on the phone into
96
00:04:27,100 --> 00:04:28,733
but let's just look at a couple more sounds
97
00:04:28,733 --> 00:04:30,399
and if I can't find anything
98
00:04:30,500 --> 00:04:32,766
we'll do the no
99
00:04:42,300 --> 00:04:44,633
like it's you should never like be
100
00:04:44,900 --> 00:04:46,700
I know there's guys and girls out there who can make
101
00:04:46,700 --> 00:04:47,966
like beats like super fast
102
00:04:47,966 --> 00:04:48,399
but it's like
103
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:50,566
I go with the more methodical approach
104
00:04:50,566 --> 00:04:53,333
like I'll probably only put three sounds down right now
105
00:04:53,333 --> 00:04:53,666
and that's like
106
00:04:53,666 --> 00:04:54,366
totally okay
107
00:04:54,366 --> 00:04:55,699
you don't have to be like
108
00:04:55,766 --> 00:04:56,866
adding hi hats and like
109
00:04:56,866 --> 00:04:58,533
doing all that crazy stuff
110
00:04:58,533 --> 00:04:59,499
like from the get go
111
00:04:59,500 --> 00:05:00,566
it's like I just like to
112
00:05:00,566 --> 00:05:02,866
I have something in my head and I don't wanna
113
00:05:02,866 --> 00:05:03,899
like rush it
114
00:05:08,133 --> 00:05:10,033
no no
115
00:05:12,466 --> 00:05:14,099
no no
116
00:05:16,566 --> 00:05:18,099
well that's actually kind of cool
117
00:05:21,766 --> 00:05:25,299
I could layer that say I wasn't gonna do that before
118
00:05:25,300 --> 00:05:27,433
I think I'm gonna do that I could layer that
119
00:05:30,933 --> 00:05:32,266
I think that's the way
120
00:05:32,266 --> 00:05:33,233
one more thing
121
00:05:35,100 --> 00:05:36,000
I like
122
00:05:47,500 --> 00:05:48,366
okay I like that
123
00:05:48,366 --> 00:05:49,833
what's the temple here
124
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:51,733
so right now
125
00:05:51,733 --> 00:05:53,933
um I have a tempo in my head
126
00:05:53,933 --> 00:05:54,899
it'll probably change
127
00:05:54,900 --> 00:05:57,100
but right now in my head it's 95
128
00:05:57,100 --> 00:05:58,633
and I just hit the little t
129
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:00,200
if you're using Pro Tools
130
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:01,800
I hit the tempo map and boom
131
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:03,100
boom boom boom
132
00:06:03,100 --> 00:06:05,366
boom boom boom
133
00:06:05,366 --> 00:06:07,499
something really simple like that
134
00:06:07,500 --> 00:06:08,900
that's gonna give it some rhythm
135
00:06:12,300 --> 00:06:16,666
um okay so I can easily play that in on MIDI like this
136
00:06:17,066 --> 00:06:19,399
2 3 you could do something like this like
137
00:06:23,733 --> 00:06:27,266
but in my mind and Benny Blanco always told me this
138
00:06:27,266 --> 00:06:29,099
like record each note separately
139
00:06:29,100 --> 00:06:32,366
then you have individual control over each note
140
00:06:32,366 --> 00:06:33,633
so I'm gonna
141
00:06:34,366 --> 00:06:36,366
like take my time and just play the f
142
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:39,900
and then I'm gonna play the a flat
143
00:06:42,100 --> 00:06:43,433
and now the E flat
144
00:06:46,166 --> 00:06:47,199
and now the C
145
00:06:50,266 --> 00:06:51,499
and then the a flat
146
00:06:53,866 --> 00:06:56,299
and then I can easily copy and paste the other f
147
00:06:56,300 --> 00:06:58,600
but I'm gonna play it for different velocity
148
00:07:01,366 --> 00:07:02,166
and now
149
00:07:03,766 --> 00:07:06,499
and then so now
150
00:07:06,500 --> 00:07:09,100
gonna quantize these just so they're on the grid
151
00:07:09,266 --> 00:07:14,166
I'm going to print it to audio since I hate MIDI
152
00:07:14,966 --> 00:07:16,499
I just never liked it
153
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:19,300
I always work using audio and like
154
00:07:19,300 --> 00:07:22,133
trimming it and adjusting the attack and the sustain
155
00:07:22,133 --> 00:07:23,166
just feel so
156
00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:26,400
feel so final
157
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:28,100
I don't know so
158
00:07:29,700 --> 00:07:31,766
see that little transient right there
159
00:07:31,766 --> 00:07:33,266
I'm gonna trim that up
160
00:07:33,333 --> 00:07:35,666
and kind of just make it a little
161
00:07:37,566 --> 00:07:38,866
take the click off so you can
162
00:07:42,100 --> 00:07:44,133
I'm wanna kind of fade it out a little bit
163
00:07:44,133 --> 00:07:46,766
cause in my mind from this voice note
164
00:07:46,766 --> 00:07:48,466
I was doing a little bit shorter
165
00:07:48,533 --> 00:07:50,866
so I'm gonna just do that here as well
166
00:07:51,366 --> 00:07:52,366
I'll make it bigger
167
00:07:52,366 --> 00:07:53,266
there we go
168
00:07:55,566 --> 00:08:00,366
that's good I always commit it I don't know
169
00:08:00,366 --> 00:08:02,799
you don't have to it's just something I've always done
170
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:09,666
gonna do the same thing with this a flat here
171
00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:12,466
I'm gonna draw you
172
00:08:22,766 --> 00:08:25,466
and look now it's not gonna tail over any
173
00:08:32,866 --> 00:08:34,433
just fix that little fade
174
00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:36,600
see it's like going up
175
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:38,066
so you can kind of hear the click a little bit
176
00:08:38,066 --> 00:08:40,499
so I'm just gonna do a gentle cross fade
177
00:08:42,733 --> 00:08:43,999
is it without the click
178
00:08:44,966 --> 00:08:48,233
nice and clean I'm gonna do that here too with this
179
00:08:50,333 --> 00:08:53,599
commit it that's just option shift 3
180
00:08:53,733 --> 00:08:54,966
and then it just consolidates it
181
00:08:54,966 --> 00:08:56,999
you could also do option shift G and group it
182
00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:58,400
but I don't know
183
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:01,133
I just love to eat the CPU up on my computer
184
00:09:01,133 --> 00:09:03,699
and just have prosoles hate me at the end of the day
185
00:09:03,700 --> 00:09:05,566
from all the things that I've committed
186
00:09:06,966 --> 00:09:07,566
but still that
187
00:09:07,566 --> 00:09:08,766
that little click is there
188
00:09:08,766 --> 00:09:09,699
so you gotta
189
00:09:10,566 --> 00:09:13,966
the most important thing for me is making like
190
00:09:13,966 --> 00:09:15,766
the Rudimental sounds like
191
00:09:15,933 --> 00:09:17,599
like don't worry about the clicks later
192
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:19,566
just make it super clean from the beginning
193
00:09:19,566 --> 00:09:22,466
because it'll actually inspire a melody
194
00:09:22,466 --> 00:09:25,299
if what you hear sounds like a final product
195
00:09:29,566 --> 00:09:31,466
gonna cross fade that E flat
196
00:09:39,900 --> 00:09:42,633
the same thing commit that no
197
00:09:56,366 --> 00:09:57,199
see I already see
198
00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:58,366
I see what I just did
199
00:09:58,366 --> 00:10:00,933
I then I start like beatboxing because I just like
200
00:10:00,933 --> 00:10:02,699
kind of thought of like a little hi hat pattern
201
00:10:02,700 --> 00:10:03,900
but I don't wanna get ahead of myself
202
00:10:03,900 --> 00:10:05,866
I just wanna get this main sound going first
203
00:10:12,933 --> 00:10:14,466
gotta do that a little bit
204
00:10:23,466 --> 00:10:25,599
it just I start to like sing along with it
205
00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:27,800
even though it's like not even kind of done
206
00:10:31,900 --> 00:10:32,866
MWA MWA
207
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:43,600
I submit that
208
00:10:48,766 --> 00:10:50,066
Bang Bang ah
209
00:10:55,133 --> 00:10:57,966
always have to like feel the rhythm out boom boom boom
210
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:12,000
here's that cross fade that I can easily just like
211
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,200
highlight them all and do
212
00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:15,266
like the little quick phase
213
00:11:15,266 --> 00:11:16,466
but there's something
214
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:17,533
I don't know why
215
00:11:17,533 --> 00:11:19,433
I feel like if I do it by hand
216
00:11:19,566 --> 00:11:21,266
just feels more natural
217
00:11:21,266 --> 00:11:22,466
I could be completely wrong
218
00:11:22,466 --> 00:11:24,066
it could be a complete placebo
219
00:11:24,066 --> 00:11:26,466
but I think you need these fun placebos
220
00:11:26,466 --> 00:11:28,099
to make the music sound personal
221
00:11:28,100 --> 00:11:30,666
like there's that
222
00:11:32,966 --> 00:11:34,299
oh okay
223
00:11:39,366 --> 00:11:42,266
uh huh there's a loop ah
224
00:11:51,933 --> 00:11:53,166
I could be cool if I had like
225
00:11:53,166 --> 00:11:54,566
a high hat that kind of like
226
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:00,166
you know what I'm gonna do right now
227
00:12:00,166 --> 00:12:02,899
okay so when I'm first coming up with a sound
228
00:12:02,900 --> 00:12:06,000
I never just use the soft synth because I don't know
229
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:07,266
it sounds like
230
00:12:07,533 --> 00:12:08,399
I need like
231
00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:11,800
some thing of me on top of that
232
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:13,166
so I will take a
233
00:12:13,166 --> 00:12:15,999
we'll go back to my voice note memo thing here
234
00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:17,533
and I'll just do
235
00:12:17,533 --> 00:12:18,066
you know how I
236
00:12:18,066 --> 00:12:20,333
like recorded each note separately
237
00:12:20,333 --> 00:12:23,166
um I'll do that on my phone
238
00:12:23,166 --> 00:12:25,999
so ho ho ho ho
239
00:12:27,366 --> 00:12:28,166
ho
240
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:37,400
Ho ho ho ho
241
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:42,766
let me airdrop this to myself now drag this MP three in
242
00:12:46,700 --> 00:12:48,366
I always put whatever I'm working on
243
00:12:48,366 --> 00:12:50,599
I just put it right on top of the last track
244
00:12:50,700 --> 00:12:53,066
so refresh we have
245
00:12:55,066 --> 00:12:56,766
that's now we're gonna take the notes
246
00:12:56,766 --> 00:12:57,933
I just record on my phone
247
00:12:57,933 --> 00:13:00,266
so let me get a
248
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:05,233
I like that one
249
00:13:12,733 --> 00:13:14,766
okay delete that
250
00:13:14,766 --> 00:13:18,266
put this note this f goes over the f here
251
00:13:18,266 --> 00:13:19,866
I think that should be a cool blend
252
00:13:24,866 --> 00:13:30,499
do a little fade maybe just a little notch it forward
253
00:13:34,300 --> 00:13:35,100
boom
254
00:13:38,133 --> 00:13:42,666
I'm definitely gonna put some auto tune on there
255
00:13:50,266 --> 00:13:53,766
I don't like that a flat as much like this e flat here
256
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:56,400
so I'm just layering
257
00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:58,700
my voice on top of the synth right now
258
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:08,666
and now as I'm doing this
259
00:14:08,666 --> 00:14:09,533
I'm thinking I don't want
260
00:14:09,533 --> 00:14:10,066
I want this
261
00:14:10,066 --> 00:14:11,833
I want this voice to sound
262
00:14:11,900 --> 00:14:13,000
I don't want it to sound like me
263
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:14,133
I want it to sound ambiguous
264
00:14:14,133 --> 00:14:14,799
I just want it to
265
00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:16,400
I want it to feel like texture
266
00:14:16,733 --> 00:14:18,499
um like it was part of the soft sense
267
00:14:18,500 --> 00:14:21,233
so I'm gonna kind of lower it down a little bit
268
00:14:29,933 --> 00:14:31,666
okay so I'm gonna put
269
00:14:31,666 --> 00:14:34,166
I hear the air conditioning in the background
270
00:14:34,166 --> 00:14:35,999
you can kind of hear it when I swallow it
271
00:14:39,700 --> 00:14:42,966
so waves makes this great NS1 noise suppressor
272
00:14:50,466 --> 00:14:54,066
gonna put the auto tune to a flat major
273
00:14:54,666 --> 00:14:57,666
even though I said we're gonna do d flat major
274
00:14:57,666 --> 00:15:00,366
I think these notes are just gonna hit better in the
275
00:15:00,366 --> 00:15:02,499
a flat major key so you do
276
00:15:11,966 --> 00:15:13,866
so I could easily just like
277
00:15:13,866 --> 00:15:15,533
scoop a bunch of lows out of this
278
00:15:15,533 --> 00:15:18,399
but the notes are different
279
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:19,266
not too different
280
00:15:19,266 --> 00:15:20,799
but they're kind of jumping up and down
281
00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:24,266
so I love this Surfer EQ plugin which is
282
00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:26,100
it'll follow
283
00:15:26,666 --> 00:15:28,366
it's like an EQ Automator
284
00:15:28,366 --> 00:15:30,566
it'll follow all the different notes
285
00:15:30,933 --> 00:15:32,666
so I just put it right here
286
00:15:33,533 --> 00:15:34,266
see how it's
287
00:15:34,266 --> 00:15:35,199
see how it's changing all the
288
00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:36,666
it's adjusting to all the frequencies
289
00:15:36,666 --> 00:15:39,166
it's even telling you the hurts in the note too
290
00:15:39,166 --> 00:15:40,033
which is cool
291
00:15:42,666 --> 00:15:44,833
oh oh it's like changing oh oh
292
00:15:48,700 --> 00:15:51,366
um so I'm just gonna take a little
293
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:05,166
see it's just a little bit of texture
294
00:16:05,166 --> 00:16:07,399
I'm actually gonna throw it on the synth too
295
00:16:10,266 --> 00:16:12,266
but make sure when you put the auto tune on the synth
296
00:16:12,266 --> 00:16:15,066
make sure you change it to instrument
297
00:16:15,066 --> 00:16:17,699
it definitely makes a difference changes the algorithm
298
00:16:25,133 --> 00:16:28,333
and effort let's take some frequencies out the synth
299
00:16:28,333 --> 00:16:31,799
too it's like I still haven't thought of like
300
00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:34,333
what I'm gonna say or what the lyrics gonna be
301
00:16:34,333 --> 00:16:35,799
or what the melodies even gonna be
302
00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:37,133
I'm just focusing right
303
00:16:37,133 --> 00:16:38,899
now I'm making these little
304
00:16:38,900 --> 00:16:40,300
and I'm slowing down a little bit
305
00:16:40,300 --> 00:16:42,133
just to kind of make these sound perfect
306
00:16:42,133 --> 00:16:44,033
and then everything else will be just like
307
00:16:44,100 --> 00:16:45,166
just put this kick in there
308
00:16:45,166 --> 00:16:45,966
put the snare in there
309
00:16:45,966 --> 00:16:46,866
but right now
310
00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:47,866
at the core of it
311
00:16:47,866 --> 00:16:49,866
we wanna make sure that the core is really good
312
00:16:53,366 --> 00:16:58,266
okay so now let's go into sound toys
313
00:17:00,166 --> 00:17:03,699
sound toys what's that one thing Benny told me about
314
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:05,466
little Alter Boy
315
00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:07,233
put it after the EQ
316
00:17:07,466 --> 00:17:08,866
I don't know if that's correct
317
00:17:08,866 --> 00:17:09,966
or the right way to do it
318
00:17:09,966 --> 00:17:11,133
but works for me
319
00:17:11,133 --> 00:17:12,666
change the format a little bit
320
00:17:28,466 --> 00:17:29,866
and I think just overall just take
321
00:17:29,866 --> 00:17:31,433
like a little bit of lows out
322
00:17:38,733 --> 00:17:42,766
take some put the noise suppressor on the synth too
323
00:17:51,666 --> 00:17:53,933
okay so I got all the plugs on there
324
00:17:53,933 --> 00:17:56,699
I want to create a new aux
325
00:17:57,533 --> 00:17:58,966
just wanna make it always wanna like
326
00:17:58,966 --> 00:18:00,199
make an interesting sound
327
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:03,900
and this sounds pretty weird and interesting uh
328
00:18:04,300 --> 00:18:05,800
highlight the two of them
329
00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:09,100
bus something random 17 18
330
00:18:09,266 --> 00:18:12,366
17 18 put like
331
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:16,600
this wonderful Delay Valhalla mix that I just got
332
00:18:17,133 --> 00:18:20,033
I love this setting to the tape setting
333
00:18:22,566 --> 00:18:23,766
I know you're supposed to make like
334
00:18:23,766 --> 00:18:26,466
a separate aux for the delay
335
00:18:26,466 --> 00:18:27,799
and then feed it to your channel
336
00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:29,133
I just put it right on the channel
337
00:18:29,133 --> 00:18:31,866
it's just more instant gratification
338
00:18:33,333 --> 00:18:37,399
um I'm gonna put it to note and make it really fast
339
00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:37,900
because like
340
00:18:37,900 --> 00:18:39,066
it's not gonna act as a delay
341
00:18:39,066 --> 00:18:40,899
it's just gonna act as a Widener
342
00:18:40,900 --> 00:18:42,466
cause right now it's very in the middle
343
00:18:42,466 --> 00:18:43,299
and I kind of wanted to
344
00:18:43,300 --> 00:18:43,866
I know that
345
00:18:43,866 --> 00:18:45,399
there's gonna be other instruments surrounding it
346
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:46,366
so I wanted to
347
00:18:46,733 --> 00:18:49,433
spread eagle as was a weird way of saying that
348
00:18:55,566 --> 00:18:57,799
the spread little thing here we could bring this up
349
00:18:57,800 --> 00:18:59,500
I usually bring it to right here
350
00:19:11,300 --> 00:19:12,066
seems like I'm already
351
00:19:12,066 --> 00:19:13,566
I keep catching myself
352
00:19:13,566 --> 00:19:17,433
I'm starting to sing another great thing
353
00:19:17,500 --> 00:19:19,266
Valhalla makes like 50 bucks
354
00:19:19,266 --> 00:19:20,533
everyone should have it
355
00:19:20,533 --> 00:19:22,266
this vintage verb is really
356
00:19:22,266 --> 00:19:22,966
really special
357
00:19:22,966 --> 00:19:26,899
I put it on this Peter Gabriel sounding thing
358
00:19:26,900 --> 00:19:30,400
non linear reverb settings of 1980s
359
00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:32,200
you know put it right on the channel
360
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:38,100
so right there I just went to the shape
361
00:19:38,100 --> 00:19:40,333
I brought the size down to like 10%
362
00:19:40,333 --> 00:19:42,099
because it's like in the 80s
363
00:19:42,100 --> 00:19:43,833
they had a lot of gated stairs like
364
00:19:44,166 --> 00:19:46,766
and the like the river would just stop
365
00:19:46,766 --> 00:19:48,099
and that's kind of what this does too
366
00:19:48,100 --> 00:19:49,566
and really easy way
367
00:19:55,100 --> 00:19:56,966
gonna take some lows out of the reverb
368
00:20:03,900 --> 00:20:04,700
see it doesn't even like
369
00:20:04,700 --> 00:20:08,200
sound like I recorded my voice with my phone anymore
370
00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:10,200
just sounds kind of dope all the sudden
371
00:20:12,266 --> 00:20:15,566
this Pro Tools air lo fi
372
00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:18,333
fun fact I actually put this on all of my vocals
373
00:20:18,333 --> 00:20:20,866
it just kind of dirties them up a little bit
374
00:20:20,900 --> 00:20:24,000
put a bring the sample right down give it a little irk
375
00:20:29,866 --> 00:20:31,499
you just adjusted the sample right to
376
00:20:31,500 --> 00:20:32,800
wherever you think it sounds the best
377
00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:33,766
I don't know what
378
00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:34,500
technically
379
00:20:34,500 --> 00:20:36,166
is supposed to be the right way but
380
00:20:40,133 --> 00:20:44,899
I usually when I do this I try not add another note
381
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:46,133
not another harmonic to it
382
00:20:46,133 --> 00:20:47,866
I just want to add the grit to it
383
00:20:48,500 --> 00:20:49,833
so if I did this
384
00:20:51,766 --> 00:20:54,899
it's kind of adding like a like a
385
00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:57,000
you don't
386
00:21:03,133 --> 00:21:04,833
and bring the mix like to ten
387
00:21:08,533 --> 00:21:10,066
bring the bit deaf down a little bit
388
00:21:16,466 --> 00:21:18,099
I said bring down like 4
389
00:21:18,500 --> 00:21:21,266
just a little something extra um
390
00:21:21,866 --> 00:21:23,299
I'm going kind of crazy here
391
00:21:23,300 --> 00:21:25,833
but this towel chorus
392
00:21:25,900 --> 00:21:27,300
you should download all these plugins
393
00:21:27,300 --> 00:21:28,566
they're like super cheap too
394
00:21:28,566 --> 00:21:30,033
towel chorus LX
395
00:21:31,533 --> 00:21:34,599
it's basically emulating the chorus of
396
00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:36,700
like my favorite keyboard over there
397
00:21:36,700 --> 00:21:38,933
which is the Juno and the Juno 1:06
398
00:21:38,933 --> 00:21:42,266
but it does it without all the analog artifacts
399
00:21:44,100 --> 00:21:45,600
just put it on a little bit
400
00:21:52,266 --> 00:21:53,233
and finally
401
00:21:56,133 --> 00:21:59,399
XL ends everybody uses this RC twenty
402
00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:00,900
just give it a little bit of
403
00:22:10,733 --> 00:22:14,233
and finally I know I said finally a bunch of times
404
00:22:14,966 --> 00:22:16,799
Britt Skrillex always told me to use this plug in
405
00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:19,366
this is the best transient master plugin you just
406
00:22:22,933 --> 00:22:24,166
it's not really giving me the punch
407
00:22:24,166 --> 00:22:25,866
so I want to put it on the track
408
00:22:28,100 --> 00:22:29,133
bringing the attack up
409
00:22:29,133 --> 00:22:33,499
kind of just makes it hit just a little bit more
410
00:22:36,366 --> 00:22:37,399
oh and I brought this oh
411
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:38,600
I didn't even know that was gonna happen
412
00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:41,066
I brought the sustained down on my vocal track
413
00:22:41,533 --> 00:22:45,199
listen to how it was and listen to it now
414
00:22:56,066 --> 00:22:56,799
so now you can't
415
00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:59,500
you can't like really tell what instrument that is
416
00:22:59,500 --> 00:23:00,266
like if you ever
417
00:23:00,266 --> 00:23:01,766
if I were to play you that
418
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:03,900
having you not seen what I just did
419
00:23:03,900 --> 00:23:05,966
like it kind of sounds like a string instrument
420
00:23:05,966 --> 00:23:07,499
with a hybrid of
421
00:23:08,900 --> 00:23:10,566
dog howling I don't know
422
00:23:13,933 --> 00:23:15,399
okay so that's all done
423
00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:16,966
so the most important thing
424
00:23:16,966 --> 00:23:18,299
Max Martin always told me to do this
425
00:23:18,300 --> 00:23:21,233
because I used to leave a bunch of open tracks open
426
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:22,566
just commit everything
427
00:23:22,566 --> 00:23:22,899
he was like
428
00:23:22,900 --> 00:23:24,100
you're not gonna change anything
429
00:23:24,100 --> 00:23:24,966
just commit it
430
00:23:24,966 --> 00:23:27,766
it's so much more pleasant to look at
431
00:23:27,966 --> 00:23:29,533
when you render everything you did
432
00:23:29,533 --> 00:23:30,733
that's why I spent so much time
433
00:23:30,733 --> 00:23:32,799
like cross fading everything
434
00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:35,900
cause now I'll have like one track to work with
435
00:23:36,733 --> 00:23:38,199
which is this one right here
436
00:23:39,466 --> 00:23:41,033
hide and make an active
437
00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:49,966
always label your stuff um it's much easier
438
00:23:50,133 --> 00:23:52,399
um call it choir thing
439
00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:58,000
oh
440
00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:04,366
I have a I have a high hat pattern in my head
441
00:24:04,366 --> 00:24:04,666
but I don't
442
00:24:04,666 --> 00:24:07,099
I have there's one more thing that I wanted to add
443
00:24:08,566 --> 00:24:09,699
just let me work it out
444
00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:18,066
okay let's open a new track
445
00:24:20,100 --> 00:24:27,000
what number is the June 0 1 0 6 um okay we'll go to
446
00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:30,833
let's see here 3 4
447
00:24:32,333 --> 00:24:35,666
Juno put it on input since I don't really
448
00:24:35,666 --> 00:24:37,599
ah that analog hiss
449
00:24:37,866 --> 00:24:40,666
okay so I have this Juno plug in
450
00:24:40,666 --> 00:24:43,166
but it doesn't sound nearly as good as the
451
00:24:43,166 --> 00:24:43,733
the real thing
452
00:24:43,733 --> 00:24:45,299
and I have the real thing conveniently right there
453
00:24:45,300 --> 00:24:47,966
so I'm gonna go take the truck over there
454
00:24:47,966 --> 00:24:49,266
and I'm just putting this on input
455
00:24:49,266 --> 00:24:50,399
I'm not recording anything yet
456
00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:51,900
I'm just gonna find the sound
457
00:24:52,066 --> 00:24:53,733
and just have it in my head
458
00:24:53,733 --> 00:24:56,299
and I think it's gonna work out well for everybody
459
00:25:05,533 --> 00:25:06,699
and it doesn't have to be the most
460
00:25:06,700 --> 00:25:07,966
groundbreaking sound either
461
00:25:07,966 --> 00:25:10,199
it just has to be something to give it a little body
462
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:16,200
oh
463
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:19,566
oh hello
464
00:25:26,700 --> 00:25:27,633
oh oh
465
00:25:31,166 --> 00:25:32,899
okay so I know this has
466
00:25:32,900 --> 00:25:34,966
like a brilliant chorus sound to it
467
00:25:34,966 --> 00:25:35,999
but it actually
468
00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:38,266
it adds a lot of noise to it
469
00:25:38,266 --> 00:25:40,666
so I'm gonna take the chorus off on the Juno
470
00:25:41,133 --> 00:25:42,299
and it's only cause it's a
471
00:25:42,566 --> 00:25:44,266
it's a analogue thing
472
00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:47,000
um I'm gonna record now
473
00:25:48,333 --> 00:25:51,799
these notes separately with the metronome off
474
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:55,300
at no particular tempo or anything
475
00:26:05,366 --> 00:26:07,266
that might be too many notes maybe just
476
00:26:12,733 --> 00:26:14,699
okay so I have those four
477
00:26:14,933 --> 00:26:17,066
let's line them up on the grid
478
00:26:21,133 --> 00:26:23,833
put the noise suppressor on let me take it off
479
00:26:25,566 --> 00:26:28,799
it's the noise is kind of nice but I don't want it so
480
00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:33,400
out of every plugin I probably use this NS1 the most
481
00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:34,400
it's just so good
482
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:35,566
good job waves
483
00:26:36,766 --> 00:26:39,599
shout out Boston Massachusetts let's see here
484
00:26:46,266 --> 00:26:48,099
oh that sounds really good
485
00:27:01,933 --> 00:27:03,166
it's always
486
00:27:03,166 --> 00:27:04,699
always when you're laying chords down
487
00:27:04,700 --> 00:27:05,600
don't go like
488
00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:08,366
a mistake that I used to make is just adding too many
489
00:27:09,166 --> 00:27:10,599
notes in the beginning
490
00:27:11,300 --> 00:27:12,700
a couple of my friends just told me
491
00:27:12,700 --> 00:27:13,533
just like keep it super
492
00:27:13,533 --> 00:27:14,166
super simple
493
00:27:14,166 --> 00:27:17,466
and then you can always add more to the notes later so
494
00:27:22,566 --> 00:27:23,299
right around this time
495
00:27:23,300 --> 00:27:23,900
I start to like
496
00:27:23,900 --> 00:27:24,900
this reminds
497
00:27:25,366 --> 00:27:26,533
I know it's the beginning of the song
498
00:27:26,533 --> 00:27:27,666
but I start to think of like
499
00:27:27,666 --> 00:27:28,599
a picture in my head
500
00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:32,333
and it reminds me of me and my friend Mike in 2,013
501
00:27:32,333 --> 00:27:35,199
driving to a very suburban town uh
502
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:37,766
over going over the Tobin Bridge in Massachusetts
503
00:27:37,766 --> 00:27:39,199
in Boston and then going into
504
00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:40,600
like a suburbany kind of town
505
00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:41,500
I don't know why
506
00:27:54,700 --> 00:27:56,333
it's kind of 80 sounding
507
00:27:56,333 --> 00:27:58,066
I was like Peter Gabriel
508
00:27:58,100 --> 00:27:58,666
that's like
509
00:27:58,666 --> 00:27:59,533
that's that's the
510
00:27:59,533 --> 00:28:02,533
that's the vibe I'm getting and I do
511
00:28:02,533 --> 00:28:04,133
this is the comfortable song I
512
00:28:04,133 --> 00:28:05,166
my mode lately
513
00:28:05,166 --> 00:28:08,199
I'm making this album is kind of like that
514
00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:09,666
like all 80 19
515
00:28:09,666 --> 00:28:11,099
87 88 kind of thing
516
00:28:11,100 --> 00:28:12,400
I don't usually like
517
00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:13,266
start with a melody
518
00:28:13,266 --> 00:28:14,266
I usually start with the chord
519
00:28:14,266 --> 00:28:15,533
so that's a little bit different
520
00:28:15,533 --> 00:28:18,199
um let's go back to the towel plug in
521
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:19,266
put the chorus on
522
00:28:19,266 --> 00:28:20,666
so satisfying
523
00:28:26,900 --> 00:28:27,600
and one thing I did
524
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:29,966
so it doesn't sound super on the grid
525
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:32,933
just drag it to the right ever so slightly
526
00:28:32,933 --> 00:28:34,799
I don't know how to nudge so don't ask me
527
00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:38,000
I just take it and just use my cursor and drag it over
528
00:28:44,500 --> 00:28:46,066
give it a little movement
529
00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:50,633
LFO tool is great if one knob pumper is great too but
530
00:28:53,900 --> 00:28:54,700
but I don't want it to be
531
00:28:54,700 --> 00:28:55,800
I want it to be
532
00:29:00,366 --> 00:29:02,466
so I'm gonna just put it to
533
00:29:03,766 --> 00:29:05,199
half there and kind of
534
00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:07,233
just nudge it down a little bit here
535
00:29:11,466 --> 00:29:12,566
a little much maybe
536
00:29:20,100 --> 00:29:22,766
I put it on the line too but I'm kind of regretting it
537
00:29:22,766 --> 00:29:23,933
I might take it off
538
00:29:23,933 --> 00:29:25,566
but let's see what it sounds like up here
539
00:29:26,933 --> 00:29:28,033
it doesn't need it
540
00:29:48,500 --> 00:29:49,633
that's really good
541
00:29:51,533 --> 00:29:53,799
hold on so I don't forget it
542
00:30:06,133 --> 00:30:07,233
so I need to do
543
00:30:13,266 --> 00:30:14,299
okay so if this
544
00:30:14,533 --> 00:30:16,199
now I starting to like map it out a little bit
545
00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:17,600
so there's a four bar intro
546
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:25,466
you know it could be really cool
547
00:30:25,900 --> 00:30:28,200
duplicate for the intro just thinking of
548
00:30:29,966 --> 00:30:31,766
you have to stay organized the whole time
549
00:30:31,933 --> 00:30:34,333
um I know I could easily just put a
550
00:30:34,333 --> 00:30:37,566
I want it like a filter to open up um
551
00:30:37,666 --> 00:30:39,066
I can put it on the same track
552
00:30:39,066 --> 00:30:40,466
but for whatever reason it just makes my
553
00:30:40,466 --> 00:30:43,133
it puts my mind at ease when I just duplicate it
554
00:30:43,133 --> 00:30:45,366
and put the intro on a different track
555
00:30:45,366 --> 00:30:49,299
um I'm gonna use fab filter to open it up here
556
00:30:49,300 --> 00:30:51,166
so I wanted to sound like this
557
00:30:56,700 --> 00:30:58,000
kind of like that so
558
00:31:01,133 --> 00:31:04,466
okay so I'm gonna press control option command
559
00:31:04,466 --> 00:31:07,066
enable automation is what you do in Pro Tools enableton
560
00:31:07,066 --> 00:31:08,233
I know it's different
561
00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:11,966
enable automation for one band frequency
562
00:31:13,166 --> 00:31:14,566
go to my automation
563
00:31:14,866 --> 00:31:18,399
um kind of just draw it up like that
564
00:31:21,900 --> 00:31:24,666
I kind of want to open up mid halfway
565
00:31:36,933 --> 00:31:39,066
maybe that would sound good on the little line too
566
00:31:39,066 --> 00:31:43,566
let's see and look they can just well duplicate this
567
00:31:47,900 --> 00:31:48,933
see I would have totally forgot
568
00:31:48,933 --> 00:31:50,166
I kind of remember the melody
569
00:31:50,166 --> 00:31:52,599
but I feel better because I recorded in my phone
570
00:31:54,266 --> 00:31:56,866
too much let's kind of adjust it
571
00:31:58,933 --> 00:32:01,166
just bring it up lazy way to do it
572
00:32:08,300 --> 00:32:12,000
I don't like that I like I wanted to do the reverse
573
00:32:12,366 --> 00:32:14,066
you have to play around with things and
574
00:32:23,166 --> 00:32:24,499
it doesn't need it
575
00:32:24,700 --> 00:32:26,000
I regret what I said
576
00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:26,700
it doesn't need it
577
00:32:26,700 --> 00:32:28,000
hold on let me delete it
578
00:32:28,166 --> 00:32:29,566
it's just trial and error
579
00:32:29,566 --> 00:32:31,066
not gonna be right all the time
580
00:32:31,666 --> 00:32:33,299
um but what I will
581
00:32:33,300 --> 00:32:34,400
I do know now
582
00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:36,600
is I have to take a little bit of highs off it
583
00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:37,966
cause I'm gonna be singing over this
584
00:32:37,966 --> 00:32:40,333
I don't want the instrument to be crowded with my voice
585
00:32:40,333 --> 00:32:41,233
the whole time
586
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:45,800
it's hard to believe that
587
00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:47,433
just start out with my voice now
588
00:32:55,733 --> 00:32:57,399
get to a point where I like it
589
00:33:00,766 --> 00:33:02,866
by the way as far as faders go
590
00:33:03,300 --> 00:33:04,566
my stuff is super
591
00:33:04,566 --> 00:33:05,499
super low right now
592
00:33:05,500 --> 00:33:07,800
this Juno is minus 15 the
593
00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:08,766
I mean there is some
594
00:33:08,766 --> 00:33:09,899
it is going through some stuff
595
00:33:09,900 --> 00:33:13,200
that's kind of gain staging it a little bit but um
596
00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:14,500
everything is super
597
00:33:14,500 --> 00:33:16,533
super low cause I know I'm gonna add a lot of stuff
598
00:33:16,533 --> 00:33:18,066
and I want the most headroom
599
00:33:18,066 --> 00:33:20,266
and I want those drums to hit whatever drums I
600
00:33:24,300 --> 00:33:28,333
um call this intro yes I label my stuff all the time
601
00:33:28,333 --> 00:33:31,299
everyone makes fun of me oh you know be cool
602
00:33:38,866 --> 00:33:39,866
okay so weird example
603
00:33:39,866 --> 00:33:40,899
you know when teenage dream
604
00:33:40,900 --> 00:33:41,733
like blah blah
605
00:33:41,733 --> 00:33:42,466
blah blah blah
606
00:33:42,466 --> 00:33:43,466
blah blah blah
607
00:33:43,533 --> 00:33:46,133
you think I'm pretty without any makeup on
608
00:33:46,133 --> 00:33:48,133
it's you don't really know the chords yet
609
00:33:48,133 --> 00:33:49,799
it just sounds like it's in B flat major
610
00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:52,866
and then when the second half of the verse comes in
611
00:33:52,900 --> 00:33:55,666
you start to hear the E flat G F
612
00:33:55,666 --> 00:33:56,199
and you're like oh
613
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:57,300
that's the chord progression
614
00:33:57,300 --> 00:34:01,300
it'd be cool if we did the reverse of that
615
00:34:01,333 --> 00:34:03,299
and I'm thinking if we started off with like
616
00:34:03,300 --> 00:34:04,333
these very like
617
00:34:04,333 --> 00:34:06,066
Breakfast Club chords
618
00:34:07,533 --> 00:34:09,166
and then at this section maybe this is the pre
619
00:34:09,166 --> 00:34:11,299
I don't know different chords
620
00:34:12,266 --> 00:34:14,966
so you have these chords the the typical chords
621
00:34:24,166 --> 00:34:26,099
Ding ding right here let's just
622
00:34:26,100 --> 00:34:27,966
let's duplicate this Juno track
623
00:34:28,933 --> 00:34:31,499
um this is another section we're gonna come up with
624
00:34:31,733 --> 00:34:33,733
arm it uh put the different
625
00:34:33,733 --> 00:34:35,066
maybe like a slightly different sound
626
00:34:35,066 --> 00:34:36,766
but definitely with different chords
627
00:34:41,100 --> 00:34:41,900
um
628
00:34:51,266 --> 00:34:52,799
because those chords would work over
629
00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:53,966
so right now I have
630
00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:09,266
and maybe the chorus could like
631
00:35:10,366 --> 00:35:11,266
I won't say that yet
632
00:35:11,266 --> 00:35:12,899
because I want to get too ahead of myself
633
00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:14,966
44 let's see if there's any
634
00:35:21,700 --> 00:35:23,800
that could work if the release was shorter
635
00:35:27,300 --> 00:35:28,433
so staying up
636
00:35:36,466 --> 00:35:38,366
no I don't it's like too black
637
00:35:45,666 --> 00:35:47,499
take the frequency down a little bit
638
00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:51,200
when I'm putting like the Rudimental stuff down
639
00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:53,866
I don't want the you know shit to be too like
640
00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:56,400
because it's just gonna be intrusive
641
00:35:57,333 --> 00:36:00,066
so just make it as like muffly as possible
642
00:36:04,166 --> 00:36:05,799
oh that's kind of dope actually
643
00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:09,600
so let's record that separately we've been doing
644
00:36:22,866 --> 00:36:24,799
I think that's probably it see
645
00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:32,266
oh yeah that's gonna work so put these on the grid
646
00:36:32,266 --> 00:36:35,499
these four chords here um take this noise out
647
00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:41,566
do the
648
00:36:45,133 --> 00:36:47,699
oh that's kind of fire
649
00:36:50,666 --> 00:36:51,466
um
650
00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:56,333
my dog just barked the sea natural
651
00:36:56,333 --> 00:36:59,999
I should probably put something it's weird
652
00:37:09,766 --> 00:37:13,299
uh uh I want that last chord to have a C
653
00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:15,900
like my dog just barked uh
654
00:37:22,300 --> 00:37:25,500
just like a C and a C sharp kind of rubby together
655
00:37:25,733 --> 00:37:29,466
so it's interesting the entire time um
656
00:37:33,733 --> 00:37:35,966
yeah you kind of hear the seed like tucked in there
657
00:37:35,966 --> 00:37:38,966
and it just keeps the ear entertained at all times
658
00:37:38,966 --> 00:37:39,933
where you might never hear it
659
00:37:39,933 --> 00:37:43,399
it's gonna be in the background but screw it
660
00:37:52,966 --> 00:37:57,899
oh oh oh oh d flat major chord oh
661
00:38:00,333 --> 00:38:01,133
or
662
00:38:02,966 --> 00:38:04,699
and kind of hold that one out
663
00:38:04,900 --> 00:38:07,266
so there's some velocity difference here
664
00:38:13,966 --> 00:38:15,066
I think I'm wrong
665
00:38:25,666 --> 00:38:27,999
maybe an F at the bottom so
666
00:38:30,266 --> 00:38:32,999
the first inversion of a d flat I think
667
00:38:36,400 --> 00:38:37,566
maybe let's see
668
00:38:48,966 --> 00:38:52,666
no I like the pure d flat better sorry trial and error
669
00:39:00,566 --> 00:39:01,999
that's why it's always important to record
670
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:04,500
whatever melody you think is good right away
671
00:39:04,500 --> 00:39:06,300
because I'm in a completely different section
672
00:39:06,300 --> 00:39:07,766
and I would be freaking out thinking
673
00:39:07,766 --> 00:39:09,033
I forgot that melody
674
00:39:12,133 --> 00:39:14,166
take that down in volume a little bit
675
00:39:18,666 --> 00:39:21,166
cross fade that no pops or clicks
676
00:39:23,100 --> 00:39:26,066
so I'm about to show you now is a little bit extra
677
00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:30,466
but I think it lends to some special stuff
678
00:39:30,466 --> 00:39:35,366
because I grew up playing in bands in high school
679
00:39:35,366 --> 00:39:38,266
and my main goal was to not overplay
680
00:39:38,266 --> 00:39:39,499
or play on top of everybody
681
00:39:39,500 --> 00:39:41,066
and like guitar player always wanted like
682
00:39:41,066 --> 00:39:42,266
do a big solo
683
00:39:42,466 --> 00:39:43,333
I wanted to like
684
00:39:43,333 --> 00:39:44,899
blend in with them
685
00:39:44,900 --> 00:39:46,166
and because it would make them sound better
686
00:39:46,166 --> 00:39:47,199
I didn't really care
687
00:39:47,200 --> 00:39:49,566
so much about me sounding like a rock star
688
00:39:49,566 --> 00:39:51,899
I just wanted the whole band sound like a rock star
689
00:39:51,900 --> 00:39:52,733
so that's why I'm just like
690
00:39:52,733 --> 00:39:54,299
taking extra care with like
691
00:39:54,300 --> 00:39:54,966
stuff like this
692
00:39:54,966 --> 00:39:57,733
just like instrumentation melt
693
00:39:57,733 --> 00:39:59,366
like ecuing early and just like
694
00:39:59,366 --> 00:40:01,266
it all melting into each other
695
00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:10,600
so let's go go back a little bit
696
00:40:22,766 --> 00:40:24,366
maybe push that note now
697
00:40:29,500 --> 00:40:30,633
no no no maybe yeah
698
00:40:55,133 --> 00:40:57,299
like sounds like there's drums already and there's not
699
00:40:57,300 --> 00:40:59,966
okay so you take each individual hit
700
00:40:59,966 --> 00:41:04,366
and kind of just drag this one over to the right
701
00:41:04,500 --> 00:41:07,000
maybe this one to the left a little bit
702
00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:11,300
cause if a human were playing it it wouldn't be perfect
703
00:41:11,300 --> 00:41:13,666
it would have some imperfections to it
704
00:41:15,300 --> 00:41:16,600
that way I can make the drums like
705
00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:19,500
super on the grid and it'll all sound like in pocket
706
00:41:29,466 --> 00:41:31,866
so take that to the right a little bit
707
00:41:32,266 --> 00:41:33,966
this one maybe to the left
708
00:41:35,066 --> 00:41:39,866
maybe that one's right on it okay so now
709
00:41:41,900 --> 00:41:43,733
so now I'll just kind of play it from the beginning
710
00:41:43,733 --> 00:41:45,566
and kind of rock a little bit
711
00:41:50,466 --> 00:41:51,466
look at that
712
00:41:57,066 --> 00:41:59,033
maybe an organ on top of this part
713
00:42:13,800 --> 00:42:15,466
I don't know like that
714
00:42:24,300 --> 00:42:26,466
like I love things that like don't get annoying
715
00:42:26,466 --> 00:42:28,933
I don't think that little sound will be too intrusive
716
00:42:28,933 --> 00:42:31,899
on top of the melody was about to do just now
717
00:42:31,966 --> 00:42:34,033
this little thing has to have some more move
718
00:42:34,533 --> 00:42:36,466
it's kind of lame for just like brown
719
00:42:36,733 --> 00:42:39,799
so maybe just add a go back to that Valhalla delay
720
00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:49,666
kind of 1975 sounding I love Maddie and
721
00:43:04,133 --> 00:43:07,433
hmm sounds like kind of bouncing
722
00:43:08,466 --> 00:43:10,899
so this is Juno 2
723
00:43:12,866 --> 00:43:14,299
and that the first channel
724
00:43:14,300 --> 00:43:16,633
I'm gonna put a transient master here
725
00:43:22,366 --> 00:43:24,599
if I'm bringing the Transit Master up it's gonna
726
00:43:24,666 --> 00:43:27,899
you know clip a little bit so just adjust accordingly
727
00:43:36,100 --> 00:43:37,900
kind of clip I don't mind it though
728
00:43:49,466 --> 00:43:52,999
okay organ DX seven has a really cheap
729
00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:55,200
it's like I love cheap sounding instruments
730
00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:56,900
so I'm gonna go to the DX seven
731
00:43:56,966 --> 00:44:00,299
another it's a mono instrument so I'm gonna go mono
732
00:44:01,866 --> 00:44:08,566
going to go free DX seven I believe is number one
733
00:44:08,600 --> 00:44:09,866
give me an organ
734
00:44:12,366 --> 00:44:13,466
yeah that's it
735
00:44:15,666 --> 00:44:18,699
so I'm gonna record that with all the reverb and stuff
736
00:44:18,700 --> 00:44:20,800
cause I don't really know a lot about that keyboard
737
00:44:21,200 --> 00:44:22,633
and record all the
738
00:44:24,933 --> 00:44:26,266
the chords separately
739
00:44:29,133 --> 00:44:31,899
let the reverb ring out so it doesn't overlap
740
00:44:43,300 --> 00:44:44,700
and I already know in my mind
741
00:44:44,700 --> 00:44:47,000
I don't want it to sound that brash again
742
00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:48,533
that's the theme of the day
743
00:44:48,533 --> 00:44:50,299
I feel like for my uncomfortable song
744
00:44:50,300 --> 00:44:52,266
I'm gonna just make a whole bunch of loud sounds
745
00:44:52,266 --> 00:44:53,799
and see if they work but
746
00:44:57,300 --> 00:45:00,166
yeah it should sound like kind of churchy here see you
747
00:45:02,566 --> 00:45:05,433
oh but I want a little bit more of that
748
00:45:16,533 --> 00:45:17,599
there's that
749
00:45:23,933 --> 00:45:26,599
okay so simple E Q
750
00:45:38,900 --> 00:45:39,466
but there's like
751
00:45:39,466 --> 00:45:40,966
a certain note that I'm not getting enough of
752
00:45:40,966 --> 00:45:43,499
so I'm gonna duplicate that and just hold down a d flat
753
00:45:43,500 --> 00:45:47,300
and I think that'll solve my haha
754
00:45:49,166 --> 00:45:50,199
there ring out
755
00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:54,700
it should sound like a drone
756
00:46:01,666 --> 00:46:03,166
okay huh
757
00:46:11,866 --> 00:46:14,233
so now the two are kind of playing against each other
758
00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:26,166
but I'm still getting like I'm still hearing the
759
00:46:27,733 --> 00:46:30,899
so I want to maybe adjust the milliseconds to 100
760
00:46:31,300 --> 00:46:34,400
I'm just guessing that might work
761
00:46:37,766 --> 00:46:38,666
yeah
762
00:47:06,733 --> 00:47:08,799
okay so now I have those two organ tracks
763
00:47:08,800 --> 00:47:11,266
I'm gonna go to ox
764
00:47:12,333 --> 00:47:14,199
and you don't need to do this
765
00:47:14,200 --> 00:47:17,966
but again it's just my OCD 1920
766
00:47:18,466 --> 00:47:20,333
I feel like you have more control when you bounce
767
00:47:20,333 --> 00:47:21,299
all to one group
768
00:47:26,700 --> 00:47:29,100
and now that it's going through one aux
769
00:47:29,100 --> 00:47:32,266
I can bring these channels up and get more of what
770
00:47:37,333 --> 00:47:37,766
it's a little
771
00:47:37,766 --> 00:47:38,133
there's like
772
00:47:38,133 --> 00:47:40,999
it's there's this amazing plug in called soothe
773
00:47:41,000 --> 00:47:43,900
that is just like an engineer's go to
774
00:47:44,066 --> 00:47:47,999
and I don't know what it's just takes all somehow
775
00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:50,033
just magically takes the harshness now
776
00:47:50,266 --> 00:47:52,699
harshness this harshness
777
00:47:54,000 --> 00:47:55,100
put it on like a
778
00:48:00,700 --> 00:48:03,266
hmm I love plugins
779
00:48:11,566 --> 00:48:13,233
interesting but no
780
00:48:15,766 --> 00:48:17,599
orchestral nose job
781
00:48:21,766 --> 00:48:23,033
I like this one
782
00:48:24,700 --> 00:48:26,766
cause I can make it super loud and it's not annoying
783
00:48:26,766 --> 00:48:27,566
I don't know
784
00:48:30,300 --> 00:48:31,933
I can kind of hear the little dip there
785
00:48:31,933 --> 00:48:33,233
but I'll just put a little
786
00:48:33,800 --> 00:48:36,600
that Peter Gabriel kind of reverb on it
787
00:48:36,600 --> 00:48:37,633
where is it
788
00:48:37,700 --> 00:48:38,966
where is it
789
00:48:38,966 --> 00:48:40,766
I'll put it on the actual thing
790
00:48:48,666 --> 00:48:50,233
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
791
00:49:03,566 --> 00:49:05,899
I'll probably fix that little dip layer this
792
00:49:05,900 --> 00:49:08,100
I'm talking about this right here that's bothering me
793
00:49:08,100 --> 00:49:09,533
but not gonna trip on that right now
794
00:49:09,533 --> 00:49:11,766
I'm just gonna keep it moving
795
00:49:14,366 --> 00:49:14,966
that's another thing
796
00:49:14,966 --> 00:49:18,099
you don't wanna get too caught up in production land
797
00:49:18,100 --> 00:49:19,266
I know it seems like I am
798
00:49:19,266 --> 00:49:19,733
I'm just like
799
00:49:19,733 --> 00:49:20,533
kind of just like
800
00:49:20,533 --> 00:49:23,133
over explaining so you can see my process
801
00:49:23,133 --> 00:49:24,366
but you don't wanna get like
802
00:49:24,733 --> 00:49:26,666
so caught up in like the production
803
00:49:26,666 --> 00:49:27,966
where you still have a song written
804
00:49:27,966 --> 00:49:30,733
I've made that mistake in the past where um
805
00:49:30,733 --> 00:49:31,899
I've been with an artist
806
00:49:31,900 --> 00:49:32,900
and they've just been on their phone
807
00:49:32,900 --> 00:49:34,766
like watching me for four hours
808
00:49:34,766 --> 00:49:35,866
produced out a beat
809
00:49:35,866 --> 00:49:37,366
and they've heard it so many times
810
00:49:37,366 --> 00:49:39,466
that they don't even wanna write anything over it
811
00:49:39,466 --> 00:49:41,299
so just getting it
812
00:49:41,300 --> 00:49:44,533
I would usually maybe do this in like 20 minutes
813
00:49:44,533 --> 00:49:46,766
but just kind of go in super detail
814
00:49:46,766 --> 00:49:48,499
to show you the process
815
00:49:56,266 --> 00:49:57,833
put the LFO tool on there
816
00:50:08,533 --> 00:50:10,366
do I wanna go
817
00:50:14,600 --> 00:50:16,600
oh the whole drum should come in there too
818
00:50:16,600 --> 00:50:18,200
okay so we're good with sounds right now
819
00:50:18,200 --> 00:50:19,100
let's put the
820
00:50:19,100 --> 00:50:22,000
let's open up a contact and just put a hi hat
821
00:50:22,000 --> 00:50:24,233
and then maybe put some melodies down
822
00:50:24,766 --> 00:50:25,933
this is exactly what I would do
823
00:50:25,933 --> 00:50:27,866
if there were some songwriters in the background
824
00:50:27,866 --> 00:50:28,966
they usually are
825
00:50:28,966 --> 00:50:32,033
um and some collaborators um
826
00:50:33,166 --> 00:50:35,499
found these great I my Charlie sounds
827
00:50:35,500 --> 00:50:38,700
but found these great drum machines
828
00:50:38,733 --> 00:50:40,766
let's see let's go to a random one
829
00:50:40,766 --> 00:50:42,499
was Doctor Bone
830
00:50:42,666 --> 00:50:44,366
sounds weird contact
831
00:50:45,100 --> 00:50:46,666
individual hits
832
00:50:48,466 --> 00:50:49,366
let's see
833
00:51:02,700 --> 00:51:05,700
hmm that might be a little too lo fi
834
00:51:06,000 --> 00:51:10,466
let's see got the cuckoo kits oh dope
835
00:51:13,733 --> 00:51:14,866
that's nasty
836
00:51:18,966 --> 00:51:20,033
hmm hmm
837
00:51:21,733 --> 00:51:22,633
listen up
838
00:51:28,966 --> 00:51:29,766
baby
839
00:51:50,766 --> 00:51:52,299
oh that's
840
00:51:57,400 --> 00:52:00,166
so let me put like that little
841
00:52:01,666 --> 00:52:03,666
I know I'm gonna open it up with like
842
00:52:05,600 --> 00:52:06,966
but it's just easier for me to just like
843
00:52:06,966 --> 00:52:09,399
do it layer by layer so I'm gonna start with the hi hat
844
00:52:09,400 --> 00:52:13,166
um with the metronome on
845
00:52:26,566 --> 00:52:32,066
why you have to go and get my hopes up oh that's
846
00:52:43,400 --> 00:52:46,233
look at me oh get
847
00:52:48,800 --> 00:52:50,666
kind of just kind of adjust the velocity
848
00:52:50,666 --> 00:52:52,699
on these little offstep ones right here
849
00:52:52,700 --> 00:52:53,700
maybe just see
850
00:52:57,300 --> 00:52:57,966
kind of gets like
851
00:52:57,966 --> 00:52:58,899
a more in and out feeling
852
00:52:58,900 --> 00:52:59,800
I'm just trying to like
853
00:52:59,800 --> 00:53:01,866
make the drum pocket as full as possible
854
00:53:01,866 --> 00:53:03,399
with this few drum sounds as possible
855
00:53:03,400 --> 00:53:05,200
that way when I add more drum sounds
856
00:53:05,200 --> 00:53:06,800
it's gonna be like oh wow
857
00:53:13,800 --> 00:53:14,600
do it
858
00:53:30,200 --> 00:53:31,966
this one like right here
859
00:53:32,500 --> 00:53:34,066
I'm gonna disregard all the rest of them
860
00:53:34,066 --> 00:53:35,266
it's gonna loop this one
861
00:53:40,333 --> 00:53:41,966
there's my loop okay
862
00:53:42,000 --> 00:53:45,700
right to audio dumb the MIDI I don't want to look at it
863
00:53:45,866 --> 00:53:46,933
I hate it I don't know why
864
00:53:46,933 --> 00:53:49,933
I just dislike MIDI so much even though I use it
865
00:53:49,933 --> 00:53:51,333
I just wanted to go right to audio
866
00:53:51,333 --> 00:53:52,699
I delete I don't even save it
867
00:53:55,400 --> 00:53:57,733
and this is really extra but let's be a little extra
868
00:53:57,733 --> 00:54:01,033
this is a little to the right next one
869
00:54:01,800 --> 00:54:03,833
drag it over to the left
870
00:54:04,166 --> 00:54:08,599
next one to the right this one
871
00:54:10,366 --> 00:54:12,333
hmm cause then you get like
872
00:54:12,333 --> 00:54:14,266
something like delightfully imperfect
873
00:54:14,800 --> 00:54:17,766
oh it's so dope okay hmm
874
00:54:25,266 --> 00:54:26,366
oh my God
875
00:54:28,400 --> 00:54:31,266
I want a girl a girl okay
876
00:54:36,800 --> 00:54:40,200
now it just sounds like I just imperfectly
877
00:54:40,200 --> 00:54:42,666
kind of perfectly played it
878
00:54:42,666 --> 00:54:43,766
like I have rhythm
879
00:54:45,100 --> 00:54:47,666
which I I kind of do but not really
880
00:54:51,800 --> 00:54:53,566
I can paste it from the 30 second note
881
00:54:53,566 --> 00:55:00,199
so no stone left unturned label it
882
00:55:07,766 --> 00:55:09,799
go back to that delay thing
883
00:55:11,866 --> 00:55:12,666
just
884
00:55:14,666 --> 00:55:16,099
a little bit
885
00:55:20,500 --> 00:55:21,300
might have to
886
00:55:26,400 --> 00:55:30,266
so I'm just like barely I
887
00:55:30,266 --> 00:55:33,833
I hate using wideners like a um
888
00:55:33,933 --> 00:55:36,066
like a you know
889
00:55:36,066 --> 00:55:37,366
I just like using like delay
890
00:55:37,366 --> 00:55:40,099
and that's how they used to make things wider anyway so
891
00:55:40,100 --> 00:55:42,633
might as well just take the highs off just a little bit
892
00:55:43,000 --> 00:55:44,800
that way doesn't sound so in the middle
893
00:55:45,100 --> 00:55:47,033
it's very you know before
894
00:55:48,166 --> 00:55:51,066
take the click off before after
895
00:55:52,733 --> 00:55:55,699
barely noticeable but makes me happy
896
00:55:58,800 --> 00:56:01,233
I never do this but I feel like I should
897
00:56:01,600 --> 00:56:02,866
I don't wanna put a snare in yet
898
00:56:02,866 --> 00:56:04,599
cause I don't really know what snare is
899
00:56:04,600 --> 00:56:07,000
gonna be there but I'm gonna go to the signal generator
900
00:56:10,466 --> 00:56:15,099
hmm is that this might be loud no it's not
901
00:56:16,700 --> 00:56:18,066
some white noise
902
00:56:20,133 --> 00:56:22,499
kind of just take a little bit here
903
00:56:25,900 --> 00:56:29,966
hmm maybe just kind of tuck it
904
00:56:31,966 --> 00:56:33,266
kind of sounds like a little snare
905
00:56:38,066 --> 00:56:39,566
bring it down in volume
906
00:56:40,733 --> 00:56:42,666
cause what that's gonna act as like
907
00:56:42,666 --> 00:56:45,599
some top hissy stuff on um
908
00:56:46,066 --> 00:56:46,799
on top of the snare
909
00:56:46,800 --> 00:56:48,566
it's essentially like going to splice and like
910
00:56:48,566 --> 00:56:49,733
getting some vinyl crackle
911
00:56:49,733 --> 00:56:51,399
and just putting it on top of your snare
912
00:56:51,400 --> 00:56:53,333
um which I could probably do too
913
00:56:53,333 --> 00:56:55,099
I just felt like using white noise
914
00:56:58,466 --> 00:57:00,133
cause you know the beginning of like um
915
00:57:00,133 --> 00:57:01,366
because your kiss
916
00:57:01,366 --> 00:57:03,599
your kiss is on my lips
917
00:57:03,600 --> 00:57:06,666
that like drum sound that all I know is do do do
918
00:57:06,766 --> 00:57:08,966
do dudes like kind of corny sounding
919
00:57:08,966 --> 00:57:11,399
I kind of wanna do that with the percussion here
920
00:57:15,600 --> 00:57:16,333
could do that
921
00:57:16,333 --> 00:57:19,066
put the delay on here too maybe a little more
922
00:57:25,100 --> 00:57:26,500
oh that one's
923
00:57:31,966 --> 00:57:35,266
I'm gonna take one tiny little frequency out in one EQ
924
00:57:35,266 --> 00:57:37,866
that I absolutely adore
925
00:57:37,866 --> 00:57:41,366
because I'm not like to technically uh savvy
926
00:57:41,366 --> 00:57:43,499
is this neutron uh
927
00:57:43,500 --> 00:57:46,100
where the hell is it neutron EQ
928
00:57:46,166 --> 00:57:47,099
let me just
929
00:57:47,200 --> 00:57:48,066
what should I put out
930
00:57:48,066 --> 00:57:50,999
put it before and
931
00:57:51,600 --> 00:57:54,133
and Neutron Equalizer
932
00:57:54,133 --> 00:57:56,399
like neutron to equalizer
933
00:57:56,700 --> 00:57:57,800
see how that goes
934
00:57:58,900 --> 00:57:59,866
you hit learn
935
00:58:01,700 --> 00:58:02,933
and it literally tells you like
936
00:58:02,933 --> 00:58:07,366
the best place to tremor at so
937
00:58:12,466 --> 00:58:13,266
that
938
00:58:15,966 --> 00:58:17,099
make room for this
939
00:58:21,300 --> 00:58:23,066
so you have like multiple pitches
940
00:58:23,066 --> 00:58:23,699
and the inch in
941
00:58:23,700 --> 00:58:27,400
the small little bits of drum instrumentation um
942
00:58:27,666 --> 00:58:30,766
you zoom really close in and kind of just take this
943
00:58:30,766 --> 00:58:31,666
the white noise snare
944
00:58:31,666 --> 00:58:33,733
and just drag it a little bit closer
945
00:58:33,733 --> 00:58:35,699
to that high hat transient
946
00:58:48,400 --> 00:58:49,700
white noise nerve
947
00:58:53,700 --> 00:58:54,700
the verse would be
948
00:58:54,933 --> 00:58:56,133
I thought that was gonna be the pre
949
00:58:56,133 --> 00:58:58,166
I think that could be the chorus and just go like
950
00:58:58,166 --> 00:59:00,199
no pre and maybe pre on the
951
00:59:01,533 --> 00:59:03,366
after the second verse I don't know
952
00:59:25,133 --> 00:59:26,733
why I have to go and get my hopes up
953
00:59:26,733 --> 00:59:28,299
like I won't write all the lyrics right now
954
00:59:28,300 --> 00:59:29,833
but something dope you could say
955
00:59:30,766 --> 00:59:33,699
that's why I have to go and get my hopes up and may
956
00:59:36,300 --> 00:59:39,333
bugging in like bugging in like
957
00:59:39,333 --> 00:59:40,699
that's kind of dope like
958
00:59:40,700 --> 00:59:42,666
like why did you have to go and get my hopes up
959
00:59:42,666 --> 00:59:44,866
and make me think you wanted me from the beginning
960
00:59:44,866 --> 00:59:45,333
that's like
961
00:59:45,333 --> 00:59:46,933
I feel like people could relate to that
962
00:59:46,933 --> 00:59:48,099
and I definitely can
963
01:00:00,700 --> 01:00:01,666
let's just put like for fun
964
01:00:01,666 --> 01:00:03,133
just one of those snares in and then I'll
965
01:00:03,133 --> 01:00:05,699
I swear I will oh
966
01:00:07,733 --> 01:00:10,299
oh that's right I want to do like an open hat okay so
967
01:00:17,266 --> 01:00:18,466
I think it's better there
968
01:00:24,066 --> 01:00:25,033
no that's better
969
01:00:27,566 --> 01:00:28,799
oh that's dope
970
01:00:38,533 --> 01:00:41,766
baby commit audio
971
01:00:43,666 --> 01:00:44,666
let's go
972
01:00:46,733 --> 01:00:48,966
do I want that high hat there I don't know
973
01:00:50,166 --> 01:00:52,199
I kind of do but I'm gonna make it a little lower
974
01:00:54,000 --> 01:00:56,300
call this open hat
975
01:01:14,600 --> 01:01:16,266
sounds like cruising down the street or
976
01:01:16,266 --> 01:01:18,666
I'm not gonna say that it sounds like an easy E record
977
01:01:19,166 --> 01:01:19,899
sounds like an old
978
01:01:19,900 --> 01:01:21,033
like dry record
979
01:01:21,666 --> 01:01:23,166
but like a lot happier
980
01:01:26,000 --> 01:01:28,100
I do want that little open hi hat
981
01:01:28,100 --> 01:01:29,133
but I'm gonna make it shorter
982
01:01:29,133 --> 01:01:30,299
so just a little
983
01:01:33,166 --> 01:01:34,366
commit to audio
984
01:01:37,000 --> 01:01:37,800
hmm
985
01:01:44,200 --> 01:01:48,233
now it's on some track oh wow what was that
986
01:01:49,733 --> 01:01:51,499
oh um
987
01:02:05,866 --> 01:02:07,266
oh I'm gonna bring that one up here
988
01:02:07,266 --> 01:02:09,099
this this one right here I'm gonna bring up
989
01:02:09,100 --> 01:02:10,466
gives a little nice pocket
990
01:02:10,466 --> 01:02:12,033
and I'm gonna bring this one down
991
01:02:28,600 --> 01:02:31,233
um maybe put a little RC twenty on this one
992
01:02:31,333 --> 01:02:33,766
give it a little different
993
01:02:35,066 --> 01:02:36,966
my favorite setting on this thing
994
01:02:37,300 --> 01:02:41,366
I know everybody uses it but like sad piano so good
995
01:02:42,466 --> 01:02:44,099
bring it up in the game a little bit
996
01:02:58,933 --> 01:03:00,099
put over there
997
01:03:17,200 --> 01:03:21,366
I think the hat could use a little LFO tool too
998
01:03:21,366 --> 01:03:22,633
so let's just like put
999
01:03:34,800 --> 01:03:36,966
suggesting volume knobs as I go
1000
01:03:39,066 --> 01:03:41,099
definitely gonna put that there too
1001
01:03:45,666 --> 01:03:47,199
that's too much distortion
1002
01:03:48,700 --> 01:03:49,900
maybe the two bear
1003
01:03:51,800 --> 01:03:53,500
take this off take this off
1004
01:04:00,133 --> 01:04:04,466
now this one's a little too high as well there we go
1005
01:04:28,100 --> 01:04:30,066
let me this one more time so
1006
01:04:37,933 --> 01:04:40,066
you know it's just a rough track you know
1007
01:05:06,533 --> 01:05:08,099
the drum should come in right there
1008
01:05:10,000 --> 01:05:12,800
before I do all the other drums first let me just add
1009
01:05:15,200 --> 01:05:17,166
I always I don't have um
1010
01:05:17,166 --> 01:05:21,033
the attention base was a trillion retro 60s
1011
01:05:21,566 --> 01:05:24,166
um but I don't have trillion on here so I'm gonna use
1012
01:05:49,466 --> 01:05:51,166
ah simpler at the end
1013
01:06:06,666 --> 01:06:09,266
okay so I wouldn't quantize that
1014
01:06:09,266 --> 01:06:09,799
because there's
1015
01:06:09,800 --> 01:06:11,733
like a little transient at the beginning of these
1016
01:06:11,733 --> 01:06:12,966
all these base samples
1017
01:06:12,966 --> 01:06:14,666
and it's not gonna line up anyway
1018
01:06:14,666 --> 01:06:16,566
so just if I were you
1019
01:06:16,566 --> 01:06:17,733
and you're using this base
1020
01:06:17,733 --> 01:06:18,566
I would just print it
1021
01:06:18,566 --> 01:06:20,899
and then kind of just manually drag it
1022
01:06:21,600 --> 01:06:23,333
all the files yourself
1023
01:06:23,333 --> 01:06:24,466
it'll just like be
1024
01:06:25,866 --> 01:06:29,233
in the pocket move better or something I don't know
1025
01:06:30,400 --> 01:06:33,633
see what I mean like all this stuff at the beginning
1026
01:06:34,366 --> 01:06:37,233
you kind of want in this world here
1027
01:06:46,733 --> 01:06:50,466
I'll even go as far just like trim it even more
1028
01:06:53,533 --> 01:06:56,066
so cleaning the sound clean like that
1029
01:06:56,700 --> 01:07:01,400
um same thing just over damn bit
1030
01:07:04,600 --> 01:07:07,900
so just continue to that's a little bit more
1031
01:07:07,900 --> 01:07:09,800
just gonna blast through this real quick
1032
01:07:10,066 --> 01:07:11,099
you get the idea
1033
01:07:32,200 --> 01:07:33,100
label it
1034
01:07:35,100 --> 01:07:36,933
I think now is a good time to get a kick
1035
01:07:36,933 --> 01:07:39,599
I always do the kick before the snare because it just
1036
01:07:39,600 --> 01:07:40,833
my mind makes sense
1037
01:07:45,333 --> 01:07:46,133
boom
1038
01:07:48,600 --> 01:07:50,400
this is the best shit ever listen to this
1039
01:07:53,700 --> 01:07:55,300
oh look how I just did this work
1040
01:08:07,066 --> 01:08:07,933
I don't play drums
1041
01:08:07,933 --> 01:08:09,066
so the way I kind of figure out
1042
01:08:09,066 --> 01:08:10,599
where the kicks are going to go is I just have like
1043
01:08:10,600 --> 01:08:11,900
beatbox it out loud
1044
01:08:12,266 --> 01:08:13,466
make it a little bit lower
1045
01:08:15,500 --> 01:08:17,200
so it's going to go there boom
1046
01:08:22,566 --> 01:08:23,766
I'll do the velocity layers
1047
01:08:23,766 --> 01:08:26,066
want to get them the sample down
1048
01:08:28,066 --> 01:08:29,466
okay so it's gonna go there
1049
01:08:44,533 --> 01:08:46,233
um this one here
1050
01:08:46,400 --> 01:08:48,366
just kind of zoom in on that
1051
01:08:48,366 --> 01:08:50,833
um and make just a little bit shorter
1052
01:08:51,266 --> 01:08:52,766
and just a little bit lower
1053
01:08:52,800 --> 01:08:54,400
it's already run through the drum machine
1054
01:08:54,400 --> 01:08:55,300
so all the compression
1055
01:08:55,300 --> 01:08:56,366
everything is printed
1056
01:08:58,266 --> 01:08:59,866
there's just a difference between that
1057
01:08:59,866 --> 01:09:02,099
it being the same volume cause now it feels like
1058
01:09:09,733 --> 01:09:11,866
I can see what I was saying before about like
1059
01:09:11,866 --> 01:09:13,599
keeping all your levels super low
1060
01:09:13,600 --> 01:09:16,466
this one this Juno here was like minus 15
1061
01:09:16,466 --> 01:09:18,166
and everything is bound to get louder
1062
01:09:18,166 --> 01:09:19,299
so now I have so much
1063
01:09:19,300 --> 01:09:21,033
I've ample headroom to make it louder
1064
01:09:24,733 --> 01:09:27,166
okay so a little trick to make as much room
1065
01:09:27,533 --> 01:09:28,499
and to kind of like sculpt
1066
01:09:28,500 --> 01:09:29,933
I want every time the base hits
1067
01:09:29,933 --> 01:09:32,066
I'm gonna trigger um
1068
01:09:32,066 --> 01:09:35,099
a invisible kick and sidechain it
1069
01:09:35,100 --> 01:09:37,533
so every time the invisible kick happens
1070
01:09:37,533 --> 01:09:38,466
it's the same time
1071
01:09:38,466 --> 01:09:40,499
it's gonna be the same wave frequency as the
1072
01:09:40,700 --> 01:09:42,766
as the kick drum I just put in
1073
01:09:42,866 --> 01:09:44,499
but I'm just gonna duplicate it
1074
01:09:45,200 --> 01:09:46,800
active playlist everything
1075
01:09:46,933 --> 01:09:48,866
and then take the output off
1076
01:09:48,866 --> 01:09:50,533
there's a ton of ways to do this
1077
01:09:50,533 --> 01:09:52,499
but this is the way that I was taught
1078
01:09:52,800 --> 01:09:55,600
um put it to like
1079
01:09:56,566 --> 01:10:00,599
hmm I have a whole lot open busting
1080
01:10:00,600 --> 01:10:03,066
so just my Io No. 13
1081
01:10:03,066 --> 01:10:04,799
just call it key
1082
01:10:06,100 --> 01:10:07,700
um so that kick is
1083
01:10:09,533 --> 01:10:13,633
oh wow but maybe 21 there we go
1084
01:10:16,300 --> 01:10:17,166
21
1085
01:10:18,566 --> 01:10:19,366
key
1086
01:10:20,866 --> 01:10:25,099
um go to this thing here
1087
01:10:28,400 --> 01:10:29,966
go to like I don't know
1088
01:10:29,966 --> 01:10:33,299
any compressor will use the prosoles 1
1089
01:10:34,533 --> 01:10:35,666
activate the key
1090
01:10:37,000 --> 01:10:41,166
key and then kind of just solo it and listen to the
1091
01:10:41,800 --> 01:10:45,566
so I'm triggering it to sidechain
1092
01:10:45,566 --> 01:10:49,699
every time this red kick happens
1093
01:10:52,600 --> 01:10:55,800
so it's making room when I put the kick in
1094
01:10:58,800 --> 01:10:59,633
um
1095
01:11:01,333 --> 01:11:02,199
it's exaggerated
1096
01:11:02,200 --> 01:11:04,400
so we know exactly what the release is gonna be
1097
01:11:12,566 --> 01:11:15,099
baby just gotta use your ear
1098
01:11:16,900 --> 01:11:17,700
10
1099
01:11:18,933 --> 01:11:19,966
it's pretty good
1100
01:11:20,933 --> 01:11:22,566
just the ratio a little bit
1101
01:11:24,100 --> 01:11:25,366
dope it gets a little
1102
01:11:25,366 --> 01:11:28,166
I did that on we don't talk anymore with the guitar um
1103
01:11:28,166 --> 01:11:29,799
cause ASOF was doing
1104
01:11:31,400 --> 01:11:33,333
and it would be really annoying if it didn't have some
1105
01:11:33,333 --> 01:11:34,666
like dips in it
1106
01:11:34,733 --> 01:11:37,733
and the kick I feel like wouldn't come out as much
1107
01:11:37,733 --> 01:11:38,499
Manny taught me that
1108
01:11:38,500 --> 01:11:40,000
Manny Marequin taught me that
1109
01:11:40,333 --> 01:11:41,999
we're not a lot long time ago
1110
01:11:49,000 --> 01:11:51,133
so it's gonna lose some volume so you bring it up
1111
01:11:51,133 --> 01:11:52,466
good thing we have headroom
1112
01:12:10,600 --> 01:12:12,000
here's a little dip
1113
01:12:17,700 --> 01:12:19,800
I like them when the ratio was a little more tough
1114
01:12:26,700 --> 01:12:29,300
stick put it on the base too
1115
01:12:29,333 --> 01:12:32,633
why not so we got now the base here
1116
01:12:36,200 --> 01:12:37,600
your little dips in it
1117
01:12:39,133 --> 01:12:40,266
put the kick there
1118
01:12:49,700 --> 01:12:51,300
you are so a little lying too
1119
01:13:03,666 --> 01:13:05,066
sounds good on the line
1120
01:13:18,300 --> 01:13:22,066
starting to think that that needs a little muffly
1121
01:13:22,066 --> 01:13:23,799
or needs to be a little more mufflier
1122
01:13:23,800 --> 01:13:25,600
cause I knew I want my voice to be heard
1123
01:13:35,966 --> 01:13:37,433
okay so from the beginning now
1124
01:13:38,800 --> 01:13:39,933
oh I forgot
1125
01:13:39,933 --> 01:13:41,066
see that's the crazy thing
1126
01:13:41,066 --> 01:13:42,533
about working on a section for so long
1127
01:13:42,533 --> 01:13:43,099
you forgot that
1128
01:13:43,100 --> 01:13:44,466
like these chords are completely
1129
01:13:44,466 --> 01:13:45,866
sound like church in the beginning
1130
01:13:45,866 --> 01:13:47,499
and then it's just gonna be like whoa
1131
01:13:51,366 --> 01:13:53,799
that organ is way too intense
1132
01:13:54,800 --> 01:13:56,766
bring it down even more
1133
01:13:57,000 --> 01:13:58,900
I know I have e cues on it already
1134
01:13:58,900 --> 01:14:01,033
but there's no wrong way to do things
1135
01:14:06,466 --> 01:14:08,166
I'll fix that dip later
1136
01:14:23,000 --> 01:14:26,966
I'm gonna bring the little one 2 3 4
1137
01:14:32,266 --> 01:14:34,233
not perfect but it doesn't matter I like it
1138
01:14:37,400 --> 01:14:38,400
no it has to be perfect
1139
01:14:38,400 --> 01:14:40,466
I I'm gonna bring this
1140
01:14:42,966 --> 01:14:45,699
separate track so when there's no side chain
1141
01:14:47,266 --> 01:14:49,766
it's a little bit lower I have complete control over it
1142
01:15:06,066 --> 01:15:07,199
I'm gonna do is like
1143
01:15:07,200 --> 01:15:08,600
you think I'd like a like a
1144
01:15:08,600 --> 01:15:12,933
I would usually put like a big freaking 80s snare there
1145
01:15:12,933 --> 01:15:16,066
but I almost wanted to be like more low key cause
1146
01:15:16,066 --> 01:15:18,166
I kind of fell in love with this analog bounce kit
1147
01:15:18,166 --> 01:15:20,266
so there might be like let's see
1148
01:15:22,900 --> 01:15:24,566
longest 8:08 I've ever heard
1149
01:15:28,066 --> 01:15:28,866
yeah
1150
01:15:32,500 --> 01:15:33,366
that's good
1151
01:15:39,766 --> 01:15:41,499
I would like trim out that
1152
01:15:43,066 --> 01:15:44,966
okay let's just do that
1153
01:15:45,166 --> 01:15:47,199
if we have to change it later we can
1154
01:15:49,500 --> 01:15:53,000
done commit do nothing
1155
01:15:55,500 --> 01:15:57,000
okay so I wanted to take just
1156
01:15:57,000 --> 01:15:58,500
I want to make this like super
1157
01:15:59,466 --> 01:16:03,166
super punchy and not a whole lot of stuff after it
1158
01:16:08,333 --> 01:16:10,666
that's too much so just trim it back
1159
01:16:28,066 --> 01:16:29,199
the snare wouldn't be here
1160
01:16:29,200 --> 01:16:30,800
it would be in this next section
1161
01:16:35,900 --> 01:16:38,166
it's not previous just like just something to
1162
01:16:42,600 --> 01:16:44,200
that's where the first verse would be
1163
01:16:44,200 --> 01:16:47,033
and I think that's enough to write to
1164
01:16:47,100 --> 01:16:48,366
we got like a solid form
1165
01:16:48,366 --> 01:16:49,599
we got a kick snare
1166
01:16:49,600 --> 01:16:51,166
a hi hat couple sounds
1167
01:16:51,166 --> 01:16:53,299
and this is literally what I would write to
1168
01:16:53,300 --> 01:16:54,000
as if it was just
1169
01:16:54,000 --> 01:16:55,066
like a band warming up
1170
01:16:55,066 --> 01:16:55,766
this is just like
1171
01:16:55,766 --> 01:16:57,799
not the completely done thing
1172
01:16:57,800 --> 01:17:00,300
just a little bit to get my mind going
1173
01:17:00,500 --> 01:17:02,666
and I think I already have the melody in my head
1174
01:17:02,666 --> 01:17:04,499
but yeah that should be enough
1175
01:17:04,500 --> 01:17:07,000
okay so before we get into writing our song
1176
01:17:07,000 --> 01:17:09,466
it's now your turn to kind of do what I just did
1177
01:17:09,466 --> 01:17:11,599
I didn't make a completely finished track
1178
01:17:11,600 --> 01:17:13,066
I just made some vibes
1179
01:17:13,166 --> 01:17:16,099
and the bare essentials to make it easy for me
1180
01:17:16,300 --> 01:17:16,800
in my brain
1181
01:17:16,800 --> 01:17:19,500
to think of some melodies and lyrics
1182
01:17:19,733 --> 01:17:21,866
a synth kick snare
1183
01:17:21,866 --> 01:17:23,133
a hi hat pattern
1184
01:17:23,133 --> 01:17:23,966
and most importantly
1185
01:17:23,966 --> 01:17:25,366
just like labeling your stuff
1186
01:17:25,366 --> 01:17:26,899
staying organized because
1187
01:17:27,300 --> 01:17:29,500
I can't write anything when things are jumbled in
1188
01:17:29,500 --> 01:17:30,166
all over the place
1189
01:17:30,166 --> 01:17:31,299
so if you remember that
1190
01:17:31,300 --> 01:17:32,066
just stay organized
1191
01:17:32,066 --> 01:17:33,366
label all your stuff
1192
01:17:33,733 --> 01:17:35,966
at most for distinct sounds
1193
01:17:35,966 --> 01:17:37,999
and just a little bit of rhythm pockets
1194
01:17:38,000 --> 01:17:40,033
you can write something pretty consistent
