Literally what is this incredible production value? These tutorials should be put in a museum

[@iamkarramusic]

We appreciate you!! ❤

I love this guy. I've seen some serious trolls trying to f with him, but he knows he's the man.

[@Itsanasmusic]

I want anyone in this comment section to name 1 time you saw a puppet cooking beats in the dessert. I've seen it all.😂😂😂😂

[@ReidStefanMusic]

More Breaking Bad style cook ups coming soon 🔥

[@Itsanasmusic]

music production AND video production on point

[@ReidStefanMusic]

I appreciate that! Many people don’t know I went to university for video production/communications ❤🎥

[@cateador12]

I loved that you used your own tracks, your sound quality is actually awesome. I would never imagine to use that saturation along with an automation to make that 808 being so alive. Also loved the video really original. I can imagine how fun was bringin up those big speakrs in to the dessert and disrespect all those snakes, lizards and scorpions with those 808! Like fire? We gotta put them some saucy beats!

[@digitaldroo]

I always look forward to Reid’s “iiiit’s” opening to hear if Karra has helped him improve his vocal register mix.

[@ReidStefanMusic]

iiiiiiiitttttsssss production time ✅ I definitely struggle to reach those high notes

[@iamkarramusic]

My boo does it perfectly 👌🏻😂

[@YungBearPH]

very creative video. thank you for your effort in providing us quality content!

This was really helpful Reid! Thank you!

[@iraklismoschonas5214]

This tutorial is seriously underrated, it should have way more views.

i bought the disrespectful 808s bundle few days ago. They're awesome!

[@ReidStefanMusic]

I’m glad you enjoy Disrespectful 808s as much as I do 🥰

Bro really became Heisenbeat cooking nasty beats with disrespectful 808's in the middle of the desert 😮

Yes sir...let's go!!!!

[@ConnorBates]

Bro just casually dropped the most informative video of 2024… in the desert 🤣

[@djcj]

This is fucking GREAT! Your new long form videos deserve awards. Production value is insane! Ty :')

[@Babelfish112]

The first track is a banger - giving M.I.A vibes

[@ensomiiind9789]

This looks like the desert nearby my hometown!! Anyways, great and informative video Reid! As always!

[@figgy9684]

Reid, you’re the GOAT 🐐

The realest puppet in the game ❤

[@VibeTech311]

Let’s Go!

[@Sing_ItSlo]

Another quality video!!! Outstanding graphics and concept! The music is an A+ on my side of the speakers. Can you share what your signal chain is for in the box production because it really sounds great. This is just another fine example of what you can do when you let your creativity take over. Always excited to see what's next. Keep up the GOOD WORK!

[@ReidStefanMusic]

This master chain was Standard Clip going into FabFilter Pro L 2. The same thing I used in my previous course here kzbin.info/www/bejne/mnqchKRue9eMqtEsi=A4-o1JwRjekH8YRz&t=1991

[@justinnelson9065]

Incredible vid production. but holy crap, Roar looks absolutely incredible. so excited to get going with it

[@ReidStefanMusic]

Roar immediately became my favorite stock distortion. Possibly even my favorite new stock plugin 🔥

[@kftbeat]

Это просто великолепно! Так держать! Красавчик!

[@playboyfan001]

Hello Lord puppet man, we meet again for live 12s release. Show me the light

[@ReidStefanMusic]

The king of Ableton Tutorials has returned to his throne 👑

[@_CRiT_hits_]

To take it a level further: put Roar between a Commander to keep the original dynamics intact while still adding the grit

[@kristosvidinakis]

the best video ever

[@austyanaya]

Hey Reid, so do you not gain stage your bass throughout your plug-in chain? Also are you adding a limiter at the end or just letting it clip and bringing down the channel level?

[@ReidStefanMusic]

I reduce the channel levels and don’t worry about clipping because it sounds cool in Ableton

[@chrisgou123]

how did you do the cool buildup effects on your vocal thats so cool and seamless at 0:35

[@ReidStefanMusic]

Reverse reverb before the words, then low cut that one sentence extra thin

[@chrisgou123]

Ableton is a good daw . but only i hate the mixer😟

[@ReidStefanMusic]

I agree the mixer design is garbage in Ableton, however even if they improved it, many people would still never use it… All your important mixing controls are easily accessible from the timeline window.

[@Positive_Tea]

Lmao no mention of the desert location?!?? 😭😭😭💀💀💀

[@ReidStefanMusic]

Just a regular day in the studio 🔥

how to mix 808s: don't start with 808s that sound like shit from the beginning

[@iamkarramusic]

Those 808s slap 👋🏻

Sometimes they get too disrespectful 🔊

I wish I had roar. Standard to Suite = -$500 😢
