this just kinda sounds flat after youtube normalises the volume

Very good points ! What’s the first track name ? The one that you pitched and stretched 😊 Thanks for your thoughts!

Harmonize is also great for making the output of Stepwise follow the chords of your tune… if you know how to work around Harmonize's nasty defect. See the "Best Workaround" chapter of my Bitwig Harmonize Repair Manual video for that.

Oh that intro voice was so familiar…😂❤

Hey Alckemy, I'm waiting for the release of 5.3 to really get back into learning DAW and continuing my progression as a musician. Saw some great footage of you using shortcuts to edit wavs in the bottom screen. Hopefully check in on you again to see if you make some tracks and tutorials with the new release? All the best

i can't find you on Spotify. Do you have a link?

i just started watching this but i know its going to be good so i will leave a comment BEFORE as a testament of my faith

Nice one. I’ve got a challenge for you if you’re interested, You seem to be one of the few people who can really squeeze all of the juice out of Drambo so, How close do you think you can get to the same destination just using Drambo and its PatchStorage patches? Maybe include #Drambo in the video title to goose the view count?

4:52 that is wonderful

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Man that intro persona sounds fuckin LIT! That would make learning ambient very engaging lol

I have never understood why it's not possible to automate the randomize button, but thank you for this workaround!

Oh wow Alckemy that’s a funny & authentic way to start an intro LOL😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

32:00 go crazy!

Hey man have you tried zyklop yet? I love the drag and drop features it has.

Many thanks for this video. I've been only using Bitwig since august (2024), so not very experienced in Bitwig yet, but I've been using sequencers and DAW's since the early days in MS DOS in the 90's. I've used Cubase for years. I've tried Ableton, Reaper, FL and a ton of other DAW's. My prime selection criterium: workflow. A DAW should make it ease to accomplish what I want to do in the least amount of time (or steps) as possible. Ableton ticked all my checkmarks. Reaper, well, let's not use profound words here. Cubase felt like going back from c# to assembler (very powerful, but boy, how ludicrously complex did they make it). Logic looks great, especially for that money, but a bit basic and I don't do Mac. Bitwig also ticked all my checkmarks. So my shortlist was Ableton and Bitwig. Eventually I chose Bitwig because 1) the perfect VST isolation, resulting in a rock solid stability (on Win10), 2) lower latency (on my machine at least) and 3) better workflow but not by much. It also has a few quirks, like how the zoom works and the weird way of block of notes in the piano roll using start/end markers etc. But I got used to that. I've been comping and stretching audio to make distortion guitar riffs to play exactly on each 16th note, but your video showed me some stuff which makes live easier. Thanks very much for this video!!!

Polymer is a bit like Serum

Id love them to flesh out FM-4 a bit

51:15

all i want is a slice at playhead position keyboard shortcut. its enough for lazy chopping. interface tools for the grid to make stuff useable would be great as a big one. to complete the suite and use only bitwig i would need a limiter and another reverb alg but thats about it.

sick

Is there a way of dragging clips around the way you are doing while creating your beat in Ableton? So, dragging them from the arrangement view and not having to go into the clip itself?

At the beginning of this video you said "Scary times" - I disagree! Not the "time" is scary, but the significant and still ongoing decrease of peoples will and ability to question everything, to judge objectively (even most people's claims to not be able to be objective - what implies the missing will to even TRY to be objective). People have stopped thinking for themselves (it was anyway a limited number of people willing to think individually), instead every slogan, however stupid, is chased after. All the ideological crap and trash flooding literally EVERY media these days is either loved or hated, but nobody seems to be able to withstand the temptation of provocation, insetad begin to think, that this might be INTENDED (mutual hate amongst people - no matter concerning it's background - is the DREAM of all elites and their 'sidekicks', the political clientel. Btw... one person's love is another person's hate - so love causes hate and... love + hate causes LACK OF COMMON SENSE! How about your statement(s)...?

Awwww..awwww!! Finaly I've got how to make your sounds PREDICTABLE! Not just random. Maaaan, God Bless you! Cause I was tired of random stuff when you start making sound and you do not know what will you get. And now it is the step to conscious creativity, and I wanted it so much! You are The Great!

I discovered the original comprehensive neuro bass video 1 friggin day before this came out, what a coincidence

What an absolute treat, MonkeyRascal has been one of my favorite artists for years now! Thank you so much for this!

Respect your work, but "best audio editor" MY A55! =)))) Cubase has a much better audio editor, with built in VariAudio and AudioWarp, is much more precise and overall greater. Sorry. but FAX!

real jazz?

that drop was fucking nasty. i just watched the video where they use maths to create polyrhythms in the clip launching, and setting clip launch settings to portmento for performance type stuff (you'll probably cover this i am halfway only)

that’s a CRAZY title

Still one of my favorite tutorials

Drambo / iOS has completely changed how I work. Has got me out an Ableton workflow block. Drambo is the one app that I keep on coming back to that always gives me surprising results. Considering it’s features it could be easily four times the price.

Made it through the whole video! Thank you for the info!! 👏👏

I can’t even make simple bass music 😂

gonna learn the crap out of this plugin this year, i wrote down a sidenote to look at your fuse compressor video. much love

Awesome video!! Basses are sounding thoroughly crisp. Question: Do you tend to try and clean mud and such as you build basses or when using these in a full mix context?

Bought the bundle; I really enjoy the chaos these tools bring into my sessions.

Amazing video man, really good stuff. Can you tell me what the plugin/program is that auto records your audio at the top and allows you to drag it in as a sample? Looks amazing for happy accidents when sound designing! is it hard on your cpu? :)

Looks cool, I might try it at some point, but I’m fully invested in Ableton 12 for live looping performances with multiple instruments plugged in to an interface and using an APC 40 mark two controller. Kind of loving that set up right now, and it’s keeping my hands and brain full lol

for extra ridiculous sounding one, put highpass noise along with sine wave into lane two with distortion (with lane 1 output to lane 3 and lane 2 output to lane 3)

I knew there would be something new to me buried deep in this video. the multiband comb filter around 35:00 is going straight into my toolkit

Would love to have a link in the description to the Noisia harmonies tutorial you mentioned at the beginning. Great video, I really like how you chop everything up in small pieces and build simple examples to show the effects things have on the sound and give a few examples what to use it for.

You did such an amazing job speaking the whole way through. I watched the whole video sitting on my couch with you on my tv. There was so much new stuff that I learned, some stuff I knew already yet hadn’t explored the way you did, and just an overall great experience during the whole video🙌🏻 the fact it was all done in a one shot is remarkable. You’re so good at articulating your train of thought without stumbling I was baffled lol. Been following you for a while and love learning from you because you’ve always helped up my “fill” sound design game. Thanks again for this epic video. 💚

8 minutes in and there are already potentially misconceptions here. Firstly, there is no fixed rate per stream so you can't exactly say x streams = $x. But the calculations that are widely known are based on master royalties paid through distributors. When this chap talks about publishing, he'll be talking about mechanical royalties, which is a fixed rate. These are paid directly to publishers as he said (who pay it to songwriters). My guess is that he is being paid mechanical royalties for a publishing deal for a split of a song. There's also at least a 6 month backlog for publishing payments. So he probably thought "why is the ARTIST or record label (getting master royalties) getting so much when I'm getting so little (at that time). He would have got a bigger paycheque later, got radio and performance royalties and a bunch of other publishing royalties. Frankly, I don't entirely trust celebrities talking about the music industry because they don't understand it, but when they say things it's on radar without context.

Phasers end up being more different from chorus, comb filter, etc. because it's implemented with allpass filters as opposed to delay. This means the notches can be irregularly spaced, and they don't even have to move in fixed ratios. As you say, all of them can be implemented with delay in DSP, but the behavior remains different.

Hey buddy guy. I am considering doing a rent to own with phaseplant on splice. I use vital and i can honestly make some insane shit with vital, but this just seems like a step up

Dude, thank you so much!

YEEEEESSS!!!!

Have you checked out scaler EQ yet? I have it on iPad.. had a quick play - I think you’ll double love this

THIS is a true masterclass. You sir are a legend!
