Thank you so much <3 I have another free course coming

@djmyr oh very cool bro, i can't wait for it.god bless you 🙏🏼 i will learn much stuff from you 💪🏼

Have you tried copying them into the Vital presets location? In Vital you can click "show presets folder" and copy my presets right in there. Also be sure you're using Vital 1.55 or they may not load

You could definitely do that - I do sometimes run reverb sends but I sometimes do some processing after the reverb too (like LFOTool, etc) which I may not want on every track's reverb. I'll do it the way you see it in the video for tracks I want to have more control over the reverb tail without changing the reverb of other tracks

Thanks! I hadn't considered doing a series on progressive trance before (and TBH I'm more experienced in the uplifting side) but I'll look into it!

@@KOSMIKFEADRECORDS I think you’re missing the point of this video/project. These are simple recreations/distillations of existing tracks with one basic sound each to abstract the melody from the production. My goal here is to teach the basic music theory, not give an exhausting start-to-finish guide of all things uplifting trance in 10mins. It sounds like you have an issue with modern trance as a whole. And I’ll admit it can be somewhat formulaic, which is one of the reasons I have a very sparse release schedule. But I’d argue many of these tracks define the modern sound of trance and do have the kind of “soul” you are talking about.

@@djmyr Thanks for replying i appreciate that. 1.Brother bear my issue is not with modern trance as a whole. There are way too many innovative and deeply impactful songs that i love for that to be true. My issue is with "chords you need" and while i get its subjective and you can like whatever you want, the chords you provide here are specifically, UNhopeful, UNfuturistic and UNcosmic. Take a listen to these modern trance legends and their sounds (these things work together). Your examples were already copies of copies... and that basis destroyed the potential. Ilan Bluestone, Andrew Bayer, Gareth Emery. These guys push the genre forward while smashing the emotional aspects. Gareth emery specifically has these major dominated chords like the ones you like but with tons of suspended, 7th and 9th variations that hit the heart deeply and absolutely uplift and project futurism. 2. So what triggered me is my DEEP love for what trance actually does well... and your absolute neglect of those aspects. The title is misleading and the content disrespectful of the genre and my time invested in researching ideas for killer songs. I want you to see that trance chords are about the key things i mentioned and thats what drives the artists i provided to new hieghts. Its a bit harsh in my eyes to teach these to beginners (im not a beginner ill give you that) UNDER THE PRETENCE THAT THEY ARE WHAT YOU "NEED". They are NOT what they need. what they need is to understand how suspended major chords bend the mood toward hope and euphoria, and transient 7nth and 9nth minor chords can bring "light" and upliftment to minor progressions. 3. If you didnt spread your own lacking and misguided principals to other hungry and impressionable eager learners AND CHARGED MONEY for courses, i would have moved on. But i cant, despite your good intentions, have 20 to 30 to hundreds of new producers go into the world missing the true glory and power of this genre! and then you teach these are modern... these are NOT modern or ground breaking. I mean do you understand how much i love this shit? In conclusion, you miss the point of high end cutting edge trance, and the key bottom line formulations ENTIRELY. It reflects in your own sound choices too! It would be selfish of me to leave you and your flock in the dark when the true principals of trance are so majestic and enriching. So.. for the love of trance go to the pre armin van buuren era (he is phenominal dont get me wrong), and relearn what this genre is built on. HOPE. ENERGY. TEARS. GLORY. THE UNIVERSE. and then for yourself see the raw power that is trance and leave this undermining, underestimatin, underwhelming menality for the other fools. You mean well, you work hard..... but your audience deserves truth and power. That includes me!

If you cant find use in this honest constructive criticism, im sorry for wasting our time together. I meant no harm only passion and truth. Lets move forward with more respect and awe for what has been and what is possible.

I'm working on a new "Pro Trance Start to Finish" course! I may also do an old school one, and I plan on doing a free course as well soon
