The way you explained kick building in this video is so good! Been able to teach me what all the other tutorials haven’t

@@Robert-ce6nl So glad! 👌

This one video is one of the best ever on music production here on youtube, awesome kick processing workflow g

Really have to give big probs to your work. I randomly found you and like follow all of your videos for some weeks. I just got into music production some months ago. All your videos/projects are so in-depth and informative. Also that you started to give FREE templates and samples to us is amazing for me in the beginning. Thanks that you also did it for ALL your previous videos before. Keep up

[@vincentholzlwimmer2950]

Also I don't know if this kind of style is also something that you do since most videos are more to the industrial side of techno with much rumble etc. You also do or would like to do some project on YT in this style for example: YGNOR - Your Love Gets Me High AL Sinatra - I Got Lo** Nay - Dance All Night Mostly without rumble and more "clean" sounds with reverse bass and/or psy bass + this dnb rythmics/buildups and melodic/rap vocals? Would really love to see something of you in this style.

[@graphmusic]

Thank you so much for your words!! I really appreciate it. That's why I make these videos and I hope it really helps!

[@graphmusic]

@@vincentholzlwimmer2950 Nice tracks! I'll check it out for next time. I've already got lots of projects lined up, but why not for the future :)

[@VFBeats]

Learned so much in the process. I would really enjoy a Luciid or Hoehenangst Tutorial, because its my favourite Hard Techno Style :)

[@graphmusic]

@@VFBeats thanks for your comment! Yes I will check that out

[@rod9861]

Amazing work! Deserved sub mate, would be possible to put the info in the description of the sample packs you used here or in other videos? Would be usefull for some of us considering buying them(since cant get most of that info from the video or the template), know its a pain in the ass but if u have a minute one day would love it

[@graphmusic]

Thank you. Usually I answer in the comments but since lots of people are asking for this info I might consider to put it in the description for future videos yes! For this video, the samples I used are from Ableton mostly and from BVKER (bvker.com/), Cymatics (cymatics.fm/) and Randomer for the 2nd main kick (randomer.bandcamp.com/album/randomer-sample-pack-2020-new-bonus-sounds). Cheers

[@FrisoKokkeler]

What are the eq settings for the second eq in the grit? Because it just sounds weird when I try it

[@graphmusic]

@@FrisoKokkeler you can see it at 4:07, a kick sample with low pitch + amp + high pass and you get these kind of results

[@technodust7833]

Hey,bro! Nice tutor! Some questions: Do you have a room treatment ? and what headphones and what monitors do you use? 🎉

[@graphmusic]

@@technodust7833 Hey! Thanks! I produce mostly with headphones because I have no room treatment. I use the Beyerdynamics DT 770 pro.

thx a lot for your videos !! can u do a video about the kick bass like vortek's or spice up ? i beg u 🙏

[@samedome8949]

Hi ! Maybe an Fl tutorial in the future?:)

[@graphmusic]

@@samedome8949 Hmm sorry I am not sure about this 😅 But you can still follow along on serum or on the methods I use!

[@VFBeats]

I produced with FL Studio back in the days when i made rap beats. When i switched to producing Hard Techno i sadly had to realise that FL is really inconvenient for this genre. There are also no FL Tutorials out there so i switched to ableton suit. I would really recommend this to you if you have the money, but there is always a way, maybe you find good quality FL Tutorials. Its not inpossible, Oguz for example produces with FL too. Anyways good luckk and have a nice day :)

[@graphmusic]

@@VFBeats I think FL is equally as good. It’s just not the same workflow sometimes but its a matter of habits

[@samedome8949]

@@VFBeats I have already 3 years Fl and only producing industrial techno , but tutorials is never enough. I published few track with labels but i'm still begginer. Good luck too!!!!

[@shoxiyy3962]

Hi, what type of sidechain in kickstart you're using in RUMBLE? because you didn't show that

[@graphmusic]

@@shoxiyy3962 It depends, at least the mids chain to let the kick pass. Or you can use the subbbass chain (quite short) to have more of a bouncy effect. Sometimes the combination of both can work (100% mids chain and 50% subbass chain for instance)

[@shoxiyy3962]

@@graphmusic Thank your for answer

[@edmidsmusic]

Hello, tu peux m'expliquer comment tu as record tous ton process de kick pour faire juste un sample de kick à a fin stp :(

[@graphmusic]

Hello, tu créés une nouvelle piste audio. Dans la source audio (menu déroulant à droite dans le mixeur) tu sélectionnes resampling (pour enregistrer le master), ou bien directement le channel du groupe de kick que tu veux record. Puis tu armes la piste (petit rond à droite de la piste qui doit passer en rouge). Enfin tu appuis sur le bouton "enregistrer" au milieu tout en haut de la fenêtre, cela doit enregistrer et créer un sample. Si jamais ce n'est pas clair (difficile par écrit), passe en mp sur SoundCloud 😉

[@iwouldlovetolearn]

These videos are amazing for me. I'm a complete beginner and it's much easier when you make tutorials focusing only on one element in particular since it's easier to follow along. I loved the other videos about how to make techno in the style of other artitst but they are more complicated for a nooby like me so these kind of more focused simpler tutorials are really appreciated.

[@graphmusic]

Thank you for your comment. I’m glad it helped you! More videos like this are coming! 😉
