How I Bring Hats & Shakers to LIFE!

[@Joseph-ot8rc]

Finally a short, simple tutorial. Straight to the point, just as I like it. Thanks!

[@adamshaw3767]

You can also get some rather interesting rhythms if you choose the carrier as an external source, such as routing it to a channel with a lead or pluck on it, then playing with the "dry/wet" and "enhance" so you're just getting part of the signal going in. You can get different grooves to the hats this way.

[@sleepinghope364]

You can also do this with the arpegiator, and honestly you can get really good movement

[@------YeahOK------]

Sounds interesting! Can you explain please?

[@sleepinghope364]

@@------YeahOK------ kzbin.info/www/bejne/o3O6q3-qip53m5I Easy example, and you can also play with the gate knob from the arpegiator, and midi pitch from ableton to pitch it down or up sometimes. Just play with it.

I love your videos. Your mixing and mastering video with the Pultec EQ was awesome!

[@dkliunkis]

Noize is what keeps us sane in these times! Thank you for sharing your knowledge

[@sqguitar]

Created a Live FX Rack for Hihats thanks to your video. Works magic on other percussive sounds too!

That vocoder lfo trick is insane. I love those tiny subtle tricks to sound organic 👍

[@oscwildle1]

That sounded great in context of the track!!!!

[@AbishIkramToledano]

Thank you Fabio! I was literally trying to improve my Hi-Hats the other day and it sounded shitty because I kept putting reverb to “make it sound better.....” lol I’m gonna try this... right now!!! Hope you stay safe (:

[@WesTheElectric1an]

Man! I wish I had the idea of doing this years ago. Totally just fixed a track Ive been fiddling with. Cheers. Subbed.

[@bobfrode]

Great tip as always :) I tried the vocoder on drums automating on and off and gave this cool effect without destroying the drums

[@NEWGUYofficial]

Bro this vocoder trick has helped me so much sweet simple short

[@mce320]

WOW. Massive tip right here! I never think to use the noise feature of the Vocoder.

[@arjanpetersen]

How do you make a baseline like as in that song? Which notes? I like the trick actually. I like the advice! I sometimes do modular as well. And then it is nice to modulate decay of hats,

[@matthodges]

Nice tip. Ran pan in sampler (simpler?) would be a nice complementary technique, or use M4L LFO tool with a random pattern on pretty much anything you like.

[@soltan_sound]

your room has nice echo reverb

[@daveb2740]

Nice tip with the vocoder👌👌

[@luisfelipehernandez7920]

Hot tip indeed! Thank you for this Fabio. Love your channel. Greetings from Colombia

Thank you!!!! Needed this

[@AlexanderDivineEmcee]

Excellent tutorial! Earned a subscriber :)

[@JamesRamboPearce]

This is fucking fabulous

[@fourd3523]

i find putting vocoder on my closed hat group glues them together well. Dont like it on my open hat as it goes too stereo and gets lost in the mix.

[@hcl8836]

Just great!

[@giannipetrocelli472]

You made my day! Fabio show us panning tricks.... Would highly apreciate that

[@hippez]

Fire emoji thank you

[@DotsPerInchUK]

Neat! Will look into a logic way to do it 😏

[@InZainUK]

Dots Per Inch I find logics own bit-crusher is quite good for the texture on the hats and if you’re using midi you can obvs use the modulator thing for the LFO business. What did u find?

[@a-logicofficial6864]

A year into producing and I already know something that Noize is talking about feels great! I can't seem to grasp how OTT works tho... no matter how much I read about that. Maybe you can help? Especially on leads I find it difficult.

[@mlrd6622]

Hey there, OTT gives it more punch + volume in essence. Hope that helped.

[@michaelduff2382]

OTT basically splits a sound up into 3 frequency bands (low, mid, and high) and squashes the volume of each to be more uniform. You'll often find that it gets rid of mud and brings out sparkly highs. But, given that the very name OTT stands for Over The Top, you'll often find that a setting of 100% is too drastic, so just put OTT on a sound and dial the Dry/Wet to taste. That's the best way to figure out what it's doing to a sound. I even sometimes put OTT on the master channel at a very low Dry/Wet setting

[@michaelduff2382]

@Derilect Jhonez I know that, I meant like it squashes them together

[@a-logicofficial6864]

@@michaelduff2382 very clear thanks! I'll try it later on today. Thanks 😁

[@a-logicofficial6864]

@Derilect Jhonez i'll need to look those up... Never heard of upward compression. Thanks

[@BeatsbyEra]

nice ableton tutorial.. keep it up sir!..

[@ohstirfry]

It’s - short, sweet and simple.

This Help Me a Lot

[@nathanhatter]

I love me a short, sweet, simple, quick, hot tip...who doesn't?!

[@MonoLith2049]

My 1st wife, as it turns out! 😕

[@alexikeda1]

Hey Fabio, my leads don’t sound solid and direct, like they have constant presence in the mix. I don’t really know how else to explain it, but would you have any idea why?

[@GuyGamer1]

You likely need to EQ some room in your other instruments where the fundamental frequency of your lead is.

[@NoizeLondon]

There are so many factors that could be contributing to this but most likely your sound design and balance

[@gigngamer]

Ooooh good one

[@itsmymy_xo]

Is there a way I can replicate this using Logic??

[@zenobosschaert7604]

Maya Levy I did this by my uncle who uses logic with automation

[@fromcodex]

Maya Levy if you really wanna up your producing in logic watch this ... well worth it and there’s time stamps in the comments . i don’t use logic but this helped me so much kzbin.info/www/bejne/ppfWm5R6a9iJY6M

[@kitschkub1379]

Might be burned at the stake for this but... could you use the vocoder to add white noise across your mix at certain frequencies to fill it out a bit? Asking for a friend..

[@NoizeLondon]

There are no hard and fast rules man - you do you!

[@kitschkub1379]

Noize London appreciate that, I mean in moderation it shouldn’t fuck my mix too bad right?

[@NoizeLondon]

@@kitschkub1379 trial and error homie. It has the possibility of destroying everything - but this is art right? who said you can't do it?

Yo man when’s the cheep vocalist set up coming out!?!? Stay safe my guy

Probably not until this all blows over !
