[@TomaszTomaszPL]

Rene is definition of hypnotic old school techno wrapped in modern sounds. One of my favourite artist in nowadays.

[@Sequenceserenade]

Thank you for the comment that drove me to do a deep dive 🔊🎶🖤🖤🖤

[@rikkimaru13]

one of the best actually !

[@mightygarhem7]

Rene Wise closing Berghain was my all time favorite set I ever experienced. Had everyone glued to the dancefloor, perfect mixing made it feel like we were on a starship. Was an amazing storytelling masterpiece!

[@pedrpeterr]

Yes! I was there this summer, it was perfect!

[@djjohnny5166]

Thanks for sharing!

[@20thingsgoing62]

I love the no bs approach ❤

[@dcashley303]

Good on him for being honest about using clones, FL Studio and not having everything clocked. It's inspiring to hear honestly. It has that DIY ethos that I can get behind. Sure, there are 'better' ways but are they more comfortable for you? So long as you are happy with the end results who cares how you get there!?

[@rene_wise]

''So long as you are happy with the end results who cares how you get there!?'' - This is a motto i will always live by! :)

[@dxtrs_mnpltr]

Been digging his tracks for the past couple of years. He’s definitely in the zone. Much success brother

Great to see a producer not afraid to stand by Behringer synths for a change!

[@ritec]

Rene Wise! My main man right now in the Techno world. Love his style and sound.

[@ritec]

Great communicator, one of the best explanations and self reflections of the creative process I've seen on this series.

[@simonbusshart1463]

one of the best tech talks

[@JH-lo9ut]

I love his approach. It takes a lot of confidence in your gear, your talent and experience, to record with relatively cheap and accessible gear, (not all of it of course) Routing everything through the crusty old Tascam mixer is just hammering home that point.

[@super-ulitka]

Rene is great! Love his own productions and DJ sets as well. Thanks for sharing!

[@Tolivar_]

Was waiting for this one. Thanks Rene for sharing your workflow and showing us your studio :)

[@samuelhof2192]

Really refreshing approach

[@Gilliemist]

Really refreshing - wild mix of hardware/software but clearly just focusing on what works for him

[@dawhite2751]

My brother and I had the privilege to be in club Cargo in Lissabon/Portugal last sunday, where Rene Wise played an epic set for about 4 or 5 hours! Perfect from the beginning to the very end. Techno as it should be...We hope to see you soon in Belgium...😎🎶🎵🥳 Thanx man!

[@CO5MA]

So nice to discover new and young talents! Love his approach and his sound. Will follow him for sure 🎧

[@illwafer]

as a longtime FL Studio user myself, i'm most impressed that he is using it almost exclusively for audio. it is also cool that he taps out the BPM to match what is going on externally. this probably adds to the vibe/swing.

[@RadekPilich]

it's much more common to sync tempo manually in the hardware realm than one would expect. due to the ridiculous amount of cabling and routing necessary to interconnect everything, the midi sync can often be put on hold and remain that way.

[@sebastiandaniel_design]

Very inspiring interview. It's also nice to hear that a producer works with FL Studio and Behringer.

[@ElectronicBeatsTV]

There are more FL Studio producers. kzbin.info/www/bejne/f5amnJJ-iaqJmbc kzbin.info/www/bejne/a4rXg3-kqb-kkMU

FL studio is so underrated..

[@unowamusicent.3702]

99% of worlds top 100 is produced on fl studio

[@sawtooth808]

@@unowamusicent.3702 be that as it may, those users barely _use_ Fl Studio, there is quite a bit of power “under the hood” there (Benn Jordan has a series of videos that showcase just how powerful Fl Studio can be)

[@rogierfrederiks8420]

Simply inspiring. From his views on fidelty to his way of working without midi sync, and as well his pragmatism and minimalism in gear usage: really awesome.

[@Ebbelwoy]

Great artist. The future of techno

[@arjanpetersen]

future? Good artist... but he is not the future. He didn't really create a style like vigorito, plastig man, legowelt, beyer etc. But hey can be al that, enough time.

[@Juan-jw5tf]

Decoder is the future of techno :)

[@kerstmeeuw5096]

@@arjanpetersenhe actually did create a new sophisticated, deep and futuristic sound. Don’t forget his age too. You are sleeping on him.

[@arjanpetersen]

@@kerstmeeuw5096 that's all fine. But I know well about the everything that has been released from 1995 till now. 10000's of EPs. etc. So I know what I'm talking about. Everything you hear has already been done.

[@richiedon9133]

he makes what could've Claude Young played back in the day that's why I like Rene, it's the nostalgia. It's all just a matter of taste & opinion. To me, late 90s Luke Slater is still the future as it still unique til this day, in terms of texture, ideas & sonics. if you collect both vintage & new records, you will have a better understanding of how "techno" sounded throughout the years@@kerstmeeuw5096

[@djimkrone3953]

For me as a dj that is playing deep minimal techno sound. You got to have tracks like this in your set. Even his rmx‘s that he created a great.

[@klausknopp77]

I love Renes Sound so much

[@TheSpaceVentura]

Amazing artist & inspiring workflow. Thanks for sharing!

[@sjmaury]

I was so convinced there was modular in his setup because of all the rytmic elements but just see what you can do with a humble setup. One of the best out there! Thx for the vid.

[@rene_wise]

I have always been fascinated at the idea of modular but dont have the courage to take that leap yet haha. But i know its a rabbit hole i will love going down, eventually..

[@sjmaury]

i am sure the sound will be right for you@@rene_wise, on the other hand the workflow might not be as intuitive as it is with your setup now. I can imagine you can program most things almost blindly with with the way you have set things up at this point.

[@sawtooth808]

@@rene_wise I like modular synths myself, but as someone with ADHD (read very poor impulse control and management) I have given myself a very hard “no modular synths” rule, if you want to see how you like Modular synths, try out VCV rack or Cardinal on computer, they are both free (well VCV is free ish)

[@daveywaltz1830]

Thanks for the great content guys, as always. Really nice to see the workflow of producers that good

Love to see FL Studio on techno production, it's so rare, mostly use by Rap/Hiphop artists. Fresh, as we know techno producers with Ableton (again)

Really enjoyed that 1

[@corrosiveabuser]

I like this kind of approach to creating tracks, - I use a similar approach, I just refer to it as, - The Path of Least Resistance - -- I essentially just use Logic to record the stereo outs, or sub groups, from my mixer, But honestly, most of the time I just record the whole thing live, in one take, mistakes and all, - after all, personally for me, I'm only creating the stuff for myself. - love to ALL, and god bless

[@martinruczizka]

Nice!! 😊

[@datosorani1015]

the fact that he has established himself as a producer is already well known but I don’t know an artist who performs at such a high level in both DJing and Producing (especially new school i mean).

[@2jacked2read]

Great sounds! Greetings from Alentejo

[@pablo65315]

great producer

[@Max-rs1kr]

Awesome

[@joshkorody7376]

Love Rene Wise. His sounds are so outerwordly and unique I'm having a hard time even imagining them coming out of those synths. Surprised by the tascam too cause the sounds to me are pretty clean but i guess i do hear some subtle saturation going on. The no clocking thing had my ears perk up but i get it, getting everything to play nicely is a hassle sometimes trying to get everything to talk to each other, I'm sorta diving more deep into that workflow but it might be a waste of time!

[@rene_wise]

thank you! The tascam's character comes from the EQ's and driving the channel gains. Thats when you can really rough things up. It also has a pretty obvious noise floor, depending on how quiet you record things through it.

[@reginaldtechno]

FL ganggg!

Nice setup, FL is the best.

[@ElectronicBeatsTV]

I read somewhere that FL Studio is the most widely used DAW.

[@johnnyallenaah]

Stand out techno producer

[@antonv13]

Good stuff. I think I spend most of my time trying to sync the devices rather playing music :p

[@Malwensound]

He's pretty bang on about trying to sync everything to the DAW, even though it's possible with ERM Multiclocks and the like there's a lot of faff involved! (Also interesting that INVT do the same!) Also nice to see someone use legit acoustic panels, so surprising how many pros use the foamy ones - they can literally do nothing about low frequencies and if anything only accentuate the problems you already have (which are invariably the ones that need fixing way more than the treble...) - people need to know!

[@RadekPilich]

the panels he has will also do very little for low frequencies, pretty much nothing below 125 Hz, maybe a little up to 250 Hz, only above that will they absorb.

[@Malwensound]

@@RadekPilich Looks like has some corner bass traps, the GIK ones go down to around 80hz before dropping off. But yeah you just need thickness for anything sub 100. The cheap foam ones which you see all the time go absolutely nowhere near this, it's actually pretty scandalous!

[@edmc2]

[@robertordonez9242]

Rene has some fucking bangers.

[@Yan-pz1tl]

I Wanna see his masterclass, especially mixing and mastering, so badly uhh

[@cacaricomora]

Do an tech talk with boston 168!

[@blakl1st]

hi ' i like what youre doing very similar approach to myself ' sending 200 midi maps is just too distracting ' i just use hardware CV . i can see you arean experimentalist like me ' i have to tell you i found this excellent software recently called BERNA 3. its not that expensive but brilliant for expiremental music i'm not affiliated with the software just thought i'd recommend it to you.. BL- London . i subbed :)

[@arjanpetersen]

How do route the octatrack in your setup? Do you also use it as mixer or efx send/insert? How do you route your effects?

[@rene_wise]

Octatrack is used to sequence my synths and any audio from the octatrack just gets routed to one or two of the tascam channels. I use it a sequencer and instrument, not as a mixer. Any fx i might have get routed to the tascam send/return channel, or i might run a signal directly through one of the effects and back into my audio interface.

[@lai_raw]

track ID at 07:00 please?

[@dbars201]

Don’t Care knock motion ep

[@Uvisir]

its very easy to sync from FL though, he made it sound like it was hard, its very easy actually

I work in a similar fashion with my gear!

Why is your logo T Mobile

Electronic Beats is the international music platform of Deutsche Telekom and Telekom is the mother ship of T-Mobile. I hope that answers your question. Ps. Electronic Beats exists since 2000

Now I don't have to defend using FL anymore!🤣

[@samuelhof2192]

Avicii used to produce as well in FL Studio for those who dont know…

[@smooches358]

FL Studio is the best

[@user-vd3if4wq6m]

That mixer s ust making the sound more brittle and degraded...not in a good way. Usable sure, id rather get than deep punch

[@getthejackets]

Behringer quality is poor

[@rene_wise]

i beg to differ! Ive heard side by sides of some of these behringer clones to the original hardware and the difference is nearly non existent. For the price theyre at, its a very affordable way for people to delve into the analog synthesis world without breaking the bank! :)

[@getthejackets]

@@rene_wise I’m not referring to the sound being poor, I’m talking about it breaking and the build quality I have the MS-1 and have had lots of issues . But you get what you pay for

[@SingularityMedia]

Definition of generic. Techno is starved of new ideas.

[@EsoVieTH]

So by adding ”dark” infront of DnB you think you’re more creative? 😄 Make some good music instead of smelling your own farts

[@forestsunset9617]

I just saw him live and whilst I agree it's not groundbreaking, it is very well done, dance-able and elegant techno. I thought he was great.

[@robertordonez9242]

Rene’s era of techno is a modern take on Luke Slaters era. Quite tasteful production and well put arrangements. Rene in particular doesn’t disappoint.

[@sawtooth808]

@@robertordonez9242 also it is worth mentioning that Rene Wise released his early tracks on Luke Slater’s label Mote Evolver

[@user-vd3if4wq6m]

Fruityloops? Eww like a toy. Take the time to learn Ableton and you will explode

[@ElectronicBeatsTV]

Nope, you should check FL Studio

[@Spidy403]

listen to his music, nothing else to say

[@yepyepyep8859]

Why toy? Its fully functional daw with all features that you need. Besides that nothing says more than producers music, if it's good then it doesn't matter what you use and he has some bunch of hardware stuff anyway
