Designing DnB Bass with Joe Ford | Producer Masterclass | 1 of 2

[@splatsquatch3934]

tutorials filmed over the producer's shoulder are the vertical videos of our culture

[@AldenDoble]

This comment. Just this comment man. Could not agree anymore

[@unityofnoise]

for real.. I started skimming the video simply because it was so annoying that I couldn't actually SEE what he was doing... focusing on the back of the head of this dude is a HUGE fail.... than no screen recording?... BUY our magazine!? .... mmmmm no. maybe if you would have shot a better video it would haven enticed me to check out the 2nd half but now im off to find other properly made tutorials on KZbin. +1 for @splatsquatch...

[@greedokenobi3855]

Unity of Noise Maybe he didn’t want no screenrecording software on his computer. But even if so, the camera could have at least zoom in on his screen.

[@davids840]

Film the screen, not his back please

[@MrYazbo]

Agreed - possibly the worst ever tutorial type vid I've watched purely due to the lousy filming. Screen capture software anyone?

[@ThirdFocusMusic]

on Digital labz or even on Bassgorilla tutorials he used Screeen capture software no idea why it has been captured through desktop, be a dumb ass thing if CM asked could film behind him lol

[@1cecreamer]

oCam

[@ComputerMusicMag]

There were technical difficulties with Joe's screen capture software.

[@Initiatrix01]

at least have a second angle capturing his face so you can cut to and from, this is really hard to watch...

[@BeatnautLives]

2018 sound design, 2010 camera work. Well done COMPUTER MUSIC.

this guy is a master producer, his releases are incredibly polished...

[@codeuk2439]

This would have been fantastic if we could have seen the screen.

[@OutsideAndStuff]

So much good info. Super bummed about the whole distant blurry back shot. :(

[@scotttaylor7679]

LOVE THIS GUYYYYY!!!! if you know ableton.... you don't need to stare at the screen the whole time.... i could listen to all of this without watching.... and still understand and learn... just a thought... up your skills if you're complaining about no screen share.... this does just fine. thanks a ton to the channel

[@kollusion1]

Really enjoyed the mumbling, & the lack of eye contact. Should have filmed from across the road.

[@krukerproductions]

Joe fords album was amazing

[@Gorflaxsack]

Totally

[@1cecreamer]

only first track

[@sugarfree_shane8374]

To all the people complaining about not seeing the screen: 1. This is f******g free and really amazing content so show some appreciation to CMM for always coming thru. 2. Joe literally explained every single step and said which plug ins he's using. 3. Stop relying on other people to learn music production. Go back to the DAW you came from and experiment!

[@allankeane354]

mate stfu

[@sugarfree_shane8374]

I think u meant, Shut DAW fuggupp..

[@sebo8872]

Clear structure and fast-paced explanation ... I get the feeling he knows what he's doing.

[@adsertheblade]

That frequency shifting effect can be done with the serum filter. Same with the distortion. Almost no need for extra plugins

[@adsertheblade]

Yep, to back up my claim from earlier, I remade the patch entirely in serum. I used the notch 24 filter, distortion with some built in high pass, and of course the built in limited (hidden in the compressor), although the OTT sounds awesome on this preset as well. I guess you can throw both on, and then you really do need a bit of post processing. but serum FX will have you covered, so you are, in fact, keeping the whole lot in serum. And instead of assigning things to the pitch bend, I assigned the "note" modulator to the values, so you can play it on a keyboard, rather than draw everything in. If you do that, don't forget to edit the shape of the note modulator to encompass just the notes within the range you intend to play, so you have full control over how fast things move. Over and out

[@adsertheblade]

Happy Guy all of them, actually. But I guess you're referring to the frequency shift one. All you need to do is fire up the 24db notch and move it around with an lfo. You get the same kind of effect. Of course you can do two notches, and have access to a second filter, doubling you possibilities

[@adsertheblade]

Happy Guy indeed. Its just that with the same instance serum that you are making the patch with, it's far easier to use lfos built in. No need for extra automation, or extra midi triggering. Plus if you want to do it live, like I do, you want as little post processing as possible. My rig has space for limited extra plugins, so this is useful for me. Also... Why show the example in serum? If you're going to use it...well the use it. Lots of people don't seem to know what it is capable of. It can do A LOT Ps Not everyone uses Ableton. So not everyone has access to erosion. No problem, seeing as you did that cool white noise trick (love it!), slap on ott (built in), and it will give a far more nasty result that erosion. Give it a try Pps Sound design is really about understanding what you are using. It's a bit redundant using extra plugin, when the main one already has that built in. It's all about learning your tools, not just going through presets. Those are other people's sounds

[@adsertheblade]

I think you need to watch the video. Erosion is in there. He shows and explains it for you...albeit, rather vaguely. Yes, you can use the Serum LFO to modulate noise, again, like he did in the video.

[@splatsquatch3934]

whatevers easiest for you ey

[@saintvii5323]

I agree. Really wish we could see what he's doing on serum...

[@MetalDavidRulez]

Waited for this since 2014.

[@SaturnsReturn77]

Okay second time watching. Was going to comment about the recording situation, technical difficulties, blah blah blah. Now I’m just happy that YOU GUYS MADE IT HAPPEN. How many videos do you get with Joe Ford? Personally excited bc of his recent release. His mixdowns (esp the highs) are soooo crisp. Not to mention dizzying sound design. Huge ups to the CM team and Joe for sharing with the community.

[@AionueMusic]

[@ViralKiller]

always sound design, never arrangement....we need arrangements

[@juhagronberg4863]

It's nice to have close up camera view focus on hes neck. Good job!

[@unfa00]

12:28 - yes, we need more shots like this one, please!

[@AUTOSAD777]

Unfa! The linux music guy! Good to see you, bud.

[@ronang1363]

How can we have the full video, link doesn-t work anymore

[@GianlucaInvernizzi]

The processing for the movement (notching and distortion) is made only on the bus with mid-high frequency?

[@splatsquatch3934]

especially when the focus is on the back of their head and the screen is extra blurry

[@sympathykillz9479]

why plus 13 pitch up? that makes it off key right? wouldnt it be 12 up and 12 down???

[@naturesdopeflow]

Thanks! Finally a DnB producer tut using Serum!

[@sadclownairraid]

Joe, you need a second monitor. All the time spent moving plugins off and back on screen is killing me!

[@brandonguimbellot7734]

sadclownairraid looks like a second monitor behind him. I imagine he is using only one for the sake of this video. They probably wanted a screen capture recording to use in conjunction with the camera work, but something must have gone wrong. So one monitor to screen capture rather than two. Works better for this format (had the screen capture actually worked).

[@georgechristopher409]

the content is amazing, this video is pretty useless though, we need to see the screen

[@jimmymofo]

Great tutorial from Joe - but please - SACK THE CAMERAMAN!

[@Bj-re4wt]

how do i purchase this video? is there a digital download of the issue or do i need to get a magazine shipped?

[@nikku1166]

wow, this could have been a nice tutorial if i could see anything. not sad i didn't buy this months copy of the mag

omg the fact that you didnt capture the screen made me so mad you've no idea I'm just yelling at my computer rn haha

how he made serum so small i need that for my laptop

One thing a production tutorial never needs is camera angles. Screen capture and call it a day.

[@haroldpalmer3245]

I like the audio/camera guy's reflection in the computer monitor. Great video but a bit quick paced. My finger got tired of clicking backward to learn his technique.

[@ZmiguelzteixeiraZ]

What about part 2?

[@DIYDUDE012]

What's the name of the plugin he uses on 6:59 ?

[@deflodocus]

Voxengo SPAN. It's free.

[@AdamNoya]

Really wish i could see the screen

[@JeydetaJosen]

And wehre is Part 2?

[@Gusrikh1]

Interesting. Thank you.

[@Worldwave]

Its funny how the camera like doesnt even focus on anything important. It focuses on neither Joe nor the screen, it's focusing on the keyboard inbetween them. I'm guessing the camera guy just left the camera there and pressed record. No viewfinder, nothing. They couldn't have been completely stupid. They couldn't have creatively decided for it to be this way 😅

[@kenwithaK]

should i be squinting really hard at his screen or am i supposed to not really learn anything here?

[@Validity_TN]

if i buy the issue, do i NOT get the part 2 like in the dlr and icicle one?? still very disappointed, why you promise a part 2 when there is no one?? -.- tis is called SCAM!!

poorly filmed

Joe had problems with his screen capture on the day of filming.

[@amadjuk]

@@ComputerMusicMag I like how Joes to blame! like he was the one meant to be filming! maybe you should of had the camera man actually focus on the screen rather than the back of his neck. screen capture has nothing to do with the camera man being lazy

what an important fucking video
