Producer Masterclass | Gaist | Part 1 of 2

[@MajestoMusic]

I can't stop thinking they are actually sitting in front of two 15" laptop screens and that they are just two very tiny men

[@cnl2776]

Hahahahahahahahhahahahahahaha

[@nickpmusic]

Nail on the head :)

[@seeeee7883]

LOL

[@someone_else303]

Those 2 screens are complete overkill.

[@paulchambers3]

What are those monitors and what size are they? Or are they at the Cinema?

[@gnuttz1972]

I never realised how that writing dance music tracks is more than the rhythms and the music but equally about sonics, eq, compression, reverb, synth programming, ADSR, LFO's, filters, side chaining, levels, mixing, audio, midi etc etc A producer has to be incredibly knowledgeable in all these areas whilst still maintaining musical knowledge, ability and rhythmic creativity. Its hard to appreciate all these aspects when hearing dance music in a club as it often sounds fairly simple which it isn't.

[@123456789schreihals]

well said. its an interesting journey you have to go through

[@theviolinoob]

well it's very poor as a piece of art, no dynamics, no harmony ..but rich as a puzzle toy.

[@tylerdurden6992]

nah its easy. publishing the tracks is the hard part actually

[@K100music]

Is that the fucking Starship Enterprise they are producing with??

[@RockstahRolln]

This vid was terrific because they are sculpting frequencies and volume to fill up frequency ranges to make the track sound fuller. Great job!! Lots to learn here!

[@geraldgoodiii6993]

These guys really understand structure and writing for the dance floor. Clearly talented. I just wish more original sound design went into it. Just a humble opinion. Not hating one bit.

[@TheDanielShepherd]

How about "some sound design"

[@AlexisK-Octo]

I would love to have a tuto on how to make those stabs or a link to the preset they used.

[@Aceface007]

These 2 must go to the same barbers.

[@AstronoizeOfficial]

Got some good ideas from this. Great job Gaist! And, thank you Computer Music for sharing!!

[@aaronhedgesmusic]

Computer music, why is it mixed so their talking is so loud that you can’t really hear any of the music they are talking about? Makes the video kind of useless

[@EskildTrulsen]

Nice! And - love the monitors/displays you have there

[@halo091]

0:00 whats that track?

[@JohannesOfficial]

I really enjoyed watching - thank you for this! =) (Please keep with more Techno)

[@RockstahRolln]

+1 on this comment! MORE TECHNO!!

[@RichardMorrissey]

Wait, you don't tweak your stock ableton compressor settings? You throw everything at it 2:1 ratio, 2ms attack and 50ms release?

[@justinheat1]

Classic current techno production, good stuff.

[@sethtaylor7519]

"Classic current"?

[@halo091]

@@sethtaylor7519 he sidechained

[@letsgogiuseppe6235]

anyone else recognize the kick for capriatis remix of fugitives ???

[@ShaneFontane]

is that a SPL meter by the right monitor? dig it

[@felipsfroughly9666]

What is the thing with those alarm clock numbers flashing on the right hand side?

[@MYEVILTWIIN]

Junch Tulpa by the looks of it it’s a dB metre

[@marcel6049]

what is in the sidechain?

[@justinheat1]

The link doesn't work for part 2..psh!

[@ComputerMusicMag]

Do you mean the link in the description (bit.ly/CM_251), or the link to part 2 in the magazine? Both are working for us.

[@justinheat1]

I'm in the US so this may be the problem or maybe i need to view it on my ipod and not on the imac. idk. i downloaded all the content from the magazine and their tutorial is not in it as well.

[@ComputerMusicMag]

If you type the bit.ly link from the magazine feature into your web browser, you'll be able to view the full video. Have you tried that? The video file isn't in the FileSilo content due to licensing reasons.

[@thomasmatthews80]

Really good,though why do they have the same haircut?

[@TheDanielShepherd]

The haircut is as original as the music.

[@thomasmatthews80]

@@TheDanielShepherd lol harsh. Think it is to school people and I think the video is pretty good

[@TheDanielShepherd]

@@thomasmatthews80 I think they still need to learn - pretenders. Their "mix engineer" will have done half of it for them, that's the dance music scene and posers in general, they want to be DJs not tech nerds. The best bit is where one of them says the other was "jamming on the keyboard can came up with this" and it's just a one note riff 😂 So that's a (probably talented) mix engineer and two divvies to come up with a track that has no musical content built with sounds that other people made. Fantastic.

[@geraldgoodiii6993]

That model1 tho

[@DAUBSKI]

you need big screens with ableton :)

[@ronnieflorentino]

🔥🔥🔥 Masterclass!!

[@stromkraftnet]

Sorry Gaist but the recurring mic glitch sounds took me out of it. Someone could fix that in a few minutes.

[@NikoBased]

Nice, two 60 inch TV's an arms reach away. These guys must have bad eyes.

[@benjoe999]

Bigger the monitor - smaller the brain ratio

[@ROCKKIZZ]

WTF! A LOT OF TAKLING BLA BLA! LESS MUSIC!!! NO SOUND! NO KICK HEARING! ETC. ...JUST NOTHING .. JUST VERY POOR CLIP ...

[@TheDanielShepherd]

Of course they've got a mix engineer...

[@TheDanielShepherd]

"He was jamming around on the keyboard and he came up with this one note riff..." Christ.
