If you want to replicate other plugins DIY-style, I strongly recommend getting into Cardinal. I even got it to act as an (admittedly artifacty) alternative Gross Beat, envelope editing and all.

[@drewgrit_]

This is a super thorough video man, well done. I hope youtube puts this video in front of a lot of peoples eyes. I have a feeling they will💪

[@static-san]

I liked best using the glue compressor to do soft clipping. It's subtle but undeniable and I happened to have a track with a drum beat that loved it.

[@Antonio_Ortiz]

Earned a sub. Learned about sound design and freeware while saving money! 👏🏾

[@DanMess]

Thanks for the sub! 🎉

[@eboni730]

Stranjahs videos have been extremely helpful for me glad to see u mention him here

[@darqnet]

Great work!

[@mwschnurr]

Nice video. Keep it up!

[@ouuppy]

great content!

[@mtowntough]

Check out Fank Pole for Daw Alternative for FL Studio as well!

[@vivektyagi6848]

Many Thanks for this wiki-Ableton-pedia

[@reganovich]

That was really useful..Peace from ireland bro! Do Logic pro...and I have a video idea for you..Look up the Band called Cut Copy and their track cut copy autobahn music box and do a break down of how they created all the effects in it..its an amazing track..Peace!

[@maomallows]

I would love watch a part 2 of this. So I'm going to suggest a handful of effects. Kilohearts Disperser Zynaptiq PITCHMAP

[@gabrielhansen2667]

For Pitchmap you can use Ableton's Convolution Reverb or Spectral Resonator, check out QB!K's 'Making COLOR BASS W/ Ableton' video

[@brandroid8040]

to replace lfo tool try using flux mini 2 by caelem audio (free) or the "shaper" max for live device mapped to a utility's gain/auto filters cutoff (depending on preference)

[@DanMess]

Thank you for the suggestion, Haven't heard of flux mini 2 before!

[@lookmomonlycomputer]

love a lot the modulation tools of ableton, but one down side of these is the interface, too small and too much pain to edit curves, but pass this, they are fire.

[@timpilney2197]

Kclip is a hard clipper it's closer aligned to the digital clip in abletons stock saturation

[@DanMess]

What if you have the soft knob turned all the way up?

[@timpilney2197]

Definitely the same then! Kclip just trends to sound better(subjectivly to me) and used more often in its default hard clip mode. a hard clipper is used a little different than a soft clipper. Just wanted to point out the free hard clipper in ableton

[@Dan-ky7wx]

Hi, do you know if there are any free alternatives to HIVE or DIVA? Thanks for your content Dan

[@DanMess]

Hey there, what kind of sounds are you looking to achieve?

[@DreamLandMusicTV]

Hi Idk how to use the dynamic eq after I downloaded it. It won't drag into a track, Pls help!!!

[@DanMess]

What version and build of ableton are you on?

[@lookmomonlycomputer]

at somme you're right they are alternatives, but people who use fabfilter pro Q knows, not for only dynamic, actualy this one beat every aspect of eq8.

[@DanMess]

This is for those who do not have the $180 for pro q

[@lookmomonlycomputer]

@@DanMess of course, but when black friday come, this one is an absolute must have

[@diegojimnez16]

How about another free alternative for autotune?

[@DanMess]

Have you tried MAutoPitch?

[@blindcamel6236]

that autotune is trash doesn't work barely changes vocals into the Key you put it in and absolutely ruins the quality , yes it's free, great but it doesnt work, so it's pointless

[@DanMess]

There’s a lot of other free autotune alternatives so just go try something else. MAutoPitch is one

[@blindcamel6236]

@@DanMess nice one mate, great advice, trying a different autotune didn't even cross my mind I thought the vocal would tune itself if I stared at it long enough
