5 Simple Sound Design Tricks You Should Know 🔊

[@simonhmackie]

Any plugin with a "Doom" paremeter is a win in my book.

[@VenusTheory]

Instant win.

[@owencmyk]

I could tell immediately that it was a binging with babish reference, perfectly captured the energy. Nice one dude!!

[@macsikkila]

I rarely laugh, but that opening was hilarious. Thinking about how small group overlaps audio/food nerds makes it even more hilarious. BTW both channels are awesome!

[@xbloodkiss.]

i CACKLED @ "reverb w/ babish" Definitely worth a subscription

[@agentslimepunk]

Thanks to tutorials like these, I've been able to push out 40+ sample packs and won't be stopping anytime soon. Thanks for the inspiration!

[@VenusTheory]

Damn that's awesome. Happy to be of service!

[@noname-ng6sj]

Is that literally just self promo?

[@agentslimepunk]

@@noname-ng6sj Nope, just stating a fact. Not linking or spamming anybody.

[@ottam]

@@noname-ng6sj Could it be figurative self-promo?

[@jasongravely7217]

@@noname-ng6sj I think self promotion is noble if you’ve actually done something :)

[@midsoulmusic]

That rhythmic texture was so good! really cool technique!! I will combine this with vocal chops to see how it'll sound

[@jfklmk13447]

Oh! That's a good idea!

[@awmaas]

"What we're doing here is hitting the random button until we get good results" - my new answer to people asking me how life is going Good stuff man, wasn't aware of their plugins!

[@VenusTheory]

A solid motto.

[@guitar5127]

The rhythmic texture design especially, so great

[@MichaelM85x]

I love how you took the sample and made it into something really special. The texture at 8 minutes is amazing would be perfect for a breakdown or intro to ambient or Psytrance.

[@yngvinyl]

will watch later thanks as always

[@Euthymia]

Cakewalk/Sonar allows the user to randomize any plug-in. Whatever parameters the plug-in exposes to automation can be randomized

[@TheVirakahScale]

That final sound really reminds me of Skateboard wheels on rough conrete. Perhaps a Skater tune!

[@JeremyWentworth]

That rhythmic texture @7:50 is awesome!

[@VenusTheory]

Even better when fed through some granular stuff!

[@jaredstanfield267]

I’ve recently discovered your channel and want to compliment you on your excellent videos. Your sound design processes and workflow are so completely different than how I typically work and your videos provide so much value. Thank you

[@jessecapra2350]

My favorite part was at 12:26 when you accidentally started communicating with the 9 hells.

[@BrofUJu]

These always line up perfectly with Monday morning break, thanks!

[@PitchDriftProductions]

7:36 oh my goood the level up

[@jasongravely7217]

Holy shit that second granular verb wash thing is beautiful.

[@AugnierCalyenin]

That sounds SOOO BEAUTIFUL!!! I made something like this in a song last year, lost the project, and couldn't remember how I did it because I was randomly playing around in Ableton and forgot to save the rack lol. But nevermind, this sounds so much better than the version I did, gotta get these plugins cause they seem very interesting

[@theauthor1000]

This guy is on a different level !

[@rola8597]

can we get a mastering tutorial with psp plugins?

[@Sool101]

Finally someone mentioning PSP, they're underrated but I use them a lot, still, after all these years.

[@guitar5127]

We’ve been looking for these sounds especially the rhythmic texture design. You have pleased us

[@dmitripopov8570]

Thank you very much!

[@umanoid1523]

Love your sound design tips. I recently started programming basses in vital and enjoying it. Might try some of these tips with samples. I always love random buttons.

[@forsale313]

Yes indeed, Homemade soundpacks on the horizon. Thanks for the Gems (especially the tip about the limiter when randomizing for new sounds).

[@VenusTheory]

Pro tip from one too many "and let's hear it....HWHEJFEKFIIFKRJFIFKE" incidents.

[@bentonblount]

Any videos that describe your audio vocal chain? Best I’ve heard!

[@alban6101]

WONDERFULL ! This video is another gift u are giving to us. So ... THANKS firstly. And, a😀 lot of new knowledgement here, too.

[@studiofrank]

Thanks!

[@ELISHACAEZ]

The way you are able to manipulate the drums in that plugin is nothing like I've ever seen, Is there any other plugins that do that as well? 😲😲😲

[@Euthymia]

[@keithsaporsky8324]

13:00 "I just hit random a couple times and got this..." a synth that sounds better than anything I've ever made

[@Mobbprod]

Man thank u for your tips , that help me to think outside of the box and to change my vision ! Great video

[@timetobenotdo]

Have you by chance made a video showing/explaining techniques of how to cut and create drum/percussion/rhythm loops? Fyi, i have a good bit of experience with engineering and recording but almost entirely with capturing and processing live instruments (electric and acoustic). No midi, grid, or programming experience.

[@4rtclass]

7:43 is so rad, damn!

[@LoganLaTulippe]

Wow. Thanks so much for this

[@ethereal8655]

Man I just love your videos so much, they inspire me to create a masterpiece every single time Unfortunately, havent done one like ever, but one day it'll be good!

[@VenusTheory]

Sometimes it's a matter of learning how to not make one a thousand times first!

[@eshalon13]

You sir are a genius thank you🙏🏾

[@irishmossdubwise]

Enjoyed this one. Had to follow suit.

[@exist0142]

Man, that rhythmic texture was amazing! I was wondering what exactly you were doing on the keyboard at @7:04 though - I assume just playing random notes at a slow-ish pace and letting the sampler run through the sample? Great video, gave me loads of ideas!

[@illuminhadibeats]

I learned something new 😁

[@Towern96]

My 'Watch Later' playlist is filled with your videos lol keep them coming, greatly appreciated! 🙏

[@madman1699]

Howdy ! I tumbled over you today and I have a lot of fun due to your megadry style to presentate your content - wich is awesome !! I think that I can learn a lot from your channel ... Thanks for being here ! Kind Regards from Germany, Dude

Bro yoru got the Nicest voice of all

[@cholst1]

Reverb tips. The Plateu reverb from VCV Rack (paid plugin yes) is available for free in Cardinal (an open source fork of VCV that runs as a plugin in a DAW) and sounds absolutely gorgeous. Also Cardinal. Free open source version of VCV rack that is cross platform and runs as a plugin.

[@VirtualModular]

Plateau is a free module anyway, so it's already completely free if you use the standalone version of VCV.

[@cholst1]

@@VirtualModular Sure, but my point was that the VCV VST version is not free, whereas Cardinal is a free vst version of Rack. (if you only want to run plateu as a send effect in your daw for example)

[@VirtualModular]

@@cholst1 ah yes, that's true. I bought the Pro version to support the developers and mainly still use standalone anyway. But Plateau is well worth running as a VST send FX so that's a fair point.

[@makeaguitarnoise]

The new Korg Wavestation is rather amazing.

[@AmbroseChan]

Awesome video! Thank you so much for going through your process of creating these cool sounds.

[@VenusTheory]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Sool101]

You give so much motivation to create sounds, time and time again. One question, how to run these plugins in Reason since, whenever we present vst3 plugins into the daw, Reason decides to kiss the sky. Why?

[@Ryan.Anderson80]

Awesome video, i am trying these asap.. cheers fella,

[@Andrew-kc6om]

wow. its amazing what you can do with just some random sounds.

[@davidnollmusic363]

Thanks so much for your great videos Cameron! Wishing you all the best!

[@joshuahu1721]

Thanks, Really like the rhythmic texture idea! Could you share where this idea comes from? I would like to dig a bit more into the subject.

[@moosemuseum1853]

very cool plugins!

[@jkenlive]

Beautiful. Love the experimentations.

[@thaDjMauz]

I do a lot of randomization on the HG Fortune synths, which are already much too complex and unexplained to use like a regular synth

[@aboliguu1168]

Once again a great video and also very interesting plugins! Good job venus theory and noise engineering! 👏

[@NAWN]

thank you so much you helped me a lot of with this video I feel like you just put my sound design skills on another level

What oscilloscope vst is that? That's exactly what I've been looking for!

[@m.o.n.d.e.g.r.e.e.n]

using ruina all the time at the moment

[@Beatsbasteln]

we need more randomize buttons in plugins

[@vRoMe0]

Brilliant video !!

[@PhototropicLemon]

Cursus makes it look like you are working on a pip boy :)

[@gooneybird808]

Ableton has a max device that can randomize any midi cc message as well as detect and list those messages without manually putting them in. you can turn off randomization to any parameter such as volume, which, to me, is why I think its pretty gosh damn sweet.

[@gooneybird808]

also sick sick tips dog

[@zachsteiner]

Great video! Thanks for this.

[@rusher591]

Fricking insane dude lol I wish I found this channel earlier

[@chridmeister]

Seeing you work with these plugins makes me want to try to get over my problem with DAWs. I find that if I introduce a computer into my workflow, it completely kills my creative momentum. It's not any specific software, I get this with Ableton, VCVRack, even recording with Audacity can just stop me dead. I'm not even sure what it is, maybe it's because I work with computers all day. I love my modular but damn I could save a ton of money if I could just use plugins.

[@albshore8]

How does one know what synths to get if they can all have the ability to make the same sounds. or is it all about the presets. Thank You.

[@Dutch.van.der.Linde.-]

the carnage meme never gets old xD

[@TheRealMutttastic]

13:27 I have an idea for an entire track based on this already

[@jonnyw4548]

Whaa?! So damn awesome thank you

[@tommyfeinstoff]

How do you bounce that quick in Ableton?

[@MrLarsDF]

Pure gold🙏🙏

[@happyjessus]

10/10 content! Inspiring and helpful! Those plugins sound great btw! Any tips for the noise engineering oscillators on the Microfreak?

[@michaels5166]

interesting VT..The sound at13:20 reminds me of a setting I used with my Ensoniq ASR10 efx section..I ran live signals though it or ran signals through my analog synth..I am curious to see what can happen with VCV, BUZZ, and other software like you use,mixed with synths/samplers..

[@SuperRingoffire1]

Some good ideas man cheers 👌😁☮

2:33 "almost make like a bassline" xD

Okay, would really appreciate any tips on creating something similar to what was randomized at 13:06. If you have videos on this already, feel free to link them.

Do I need more plugins? Nyes

Reverbing with Babish :)

[@ediem6194]

You have inadvertently may have shown the intelligent ones who poke around here, how to effectively communicate a resonant vibrational sound pending approval of said client, into a great start to a well tuned and tasteful production starter. Id love to express, somehow exactly what I mean more contextually, this video just might inspire a video of mine to further elaborate exactly what I mean! Great stuff buddy, love your work.

Just use "experienced" instead of "intelligent", otherwise it comes off as super pompous.

Hello, First thank's for this video. So nice good things here, I mean it, it's really great. But I've a question, not relative to technical stuff. I'm french, so my english is just crap, but what mean buccaronies ???? Or buckaroonies ? buckaroo is kind of cow-boy ? What do you mean by this :) You will say this is a Music channel myfriend and this is true, but anyway, I will be delighted to know :) Fred

[@jonjermey]

Free stuff is great, but any plugin provider that wants me to take them seriously has to let me set the location of their plugins during installation. With only a small SSHD C: drive and several hundred plugins, many in the gigabyte range, I simply can't afford to let the installer decide where to put them. The ones from Noise Engineering at least seem to move easily; others don't.
