What is there any sound packs you use for the plugins in this video? I use serum, do you have any tips?

[@xonartutorials]

[@xonartutorials]

@@noobybrothers8560 I usually make my own sounds and reuse them and reshape them through time. I might release a soundpack someday.. I know Splice has pretty good Serum presets, but I don't know of any packs tbh :)

[@Jan-cb9jo]

This video helped me produce my (by far) best and most professional sounding track yet. Thank you very much

[@xonartutorials]

Awesome to hear!!! Let me know if you have any follow-up questions.

[@Mindprinter]

Thanks for this long enough video. Perfect length for a productive morning. Not too long to get too deep, but deep enough to get through all important points. 👌

[@alecballdwin7926]

Holy moly what a video. Thank you so much for this, I learned so much!

[@xonartutorials]

Thanks!!

[@bombfog1]

I love so many of your songs especially “Tears.”

[@TjayG89]

This video is really good and loads of great information. Thank you, look forward to episode 2.

[@xonartutorials]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@djmackofficial]

Top dat je dit doet. Ga zo door en succes aan alle starters! 🔥

[@edgartheincredible]

omg thank you so much! i just got into hardstyle and have been looking for a tutorial

[@xonartutorials]

Happy to help! Let me know if you have any questions!

[@VincentSteinerYuh]

Once again: Awesome Video! Keep it up :D

[@KNZINOOFFICIAL]

THANKS !!!! IT´S AMAZING CANT WAIT TO LEARN ABOUT THE KICKS

[@marieke9040]

Thanks, I love your videos! 🤩

[@xonartutorials]

Glad you like them!

[@raikol7897]

Man you're freaking amazing, so much knowledge, I wish I knew everything you know. 🙏

[@xonartutorials]

I appreciate that!

[@DaRubenG]

Where did you get your chord knowledge from? It's amazing ;)

11:48 Game of Thrones theme (Xonar bootleg)

[@xonartutorials]

I was thinking the same when playing that ☺

[@Nagelzz]

This is really nicely done, appreciate the free tutorial! Seeing you work with so many tracks in ableton discourages me a bit though, as I only have Lite. Not sure if it's even possible for me to do hardstyle with an 8 track limit..

[@xonartutorials]

Thanks for the compliment! Aww man that sucks. Maybe you can use an instrument rack for every separate sound? If you have 8 tracks, you might be able to do this: 1: Pads 2: Leads 3: Kick 4: FX (you can put samples in a drum rack and play them by midi) 5: Bass 6-8: Other sounds. You can put sounds in the instrument rack on mute through automation. Also be sure to keep an eye out for good deals on Abletons social media, I bought my license when I was a student and it cost me half. Hope this helps mate and have fun producing :)

[@sanderheutink722]

Thanks Xonar, now hardstyle

[@xonartutorials]

You bet

[@aleixanton885]

Love the video! What pluggins do u use tho? I got lost from the beggining cause I don't know where to get the sounds from. Thanks :)

[@xonartutorials]

Thanks! For the pads I used Spire. For the bass I used Serum, for the leads Sylenth1 and DUNE 3. Those 4 I use the most and as you see in the video I mostly make them myself. Good luck on your productions!

[@soseN08]

Am i understanding it correctly that you have 2 separate groups of leads for both left and the right pan and each group has their own instances of synths? Isn't that too heavy for the CPU?

[@xonartutorials]

Yes, and I changed them both so that they have a slightly different character. Difference in character and difference in timing makes the sound feel wider. Fortunately my CPU doesn't break a sweat by a few synths more. I have had a crappy CPU for a long time, but since january I got a new pc with quite good specs :)

[@Exotic69420]

Wow

[@xonartutorials]

Listen to my latest track: kzbin.info/www/bejne/n5u6kpmpf9ZqopI 🔥

[@Exspiravit4699]

Brilliant track. I've just done my 1st track after 10 hours of lessons 2 hours once a week , 5 weeks, its not hardstyle but that's what I'm aiming for maybe I'll get some pointers from you!!! Can't wait

[@xonartutorials]

@@Exspiravit4699 Sounds awesome man! Let me know if you have video ideas or topics I could discuss!

[@mauromarrale]

Heb je ook alternatieven (het liefst gratis) voor dune 3 ?

[@gonzalom3108]

Thank you very much!!

[@xonartutorials]

You're welcome!

[@Exotic69420]

[@yatabeats]

I have a question, can you explain why for the harmonies you have multiple different midi clips instead of just programming them all into the same clip?

[@xonartutorials]

I do that because the synths all have some sort of glide/legato on them. If I were to program them in the same clip, it would still only choose one note to play and glide in weird ways. Hope you understand it now!

[@TheZachCline]

Can you show how to make a techno, Harstyle beat that an artist could get on? It seems weirdly specific but I am working with an artist that wants to create that sound

[@xonartutorials]

Do you have an example I can use as reference?

[@placebosaw3342]

Very nice stuff ;-)

[@xonartutorials]

Thanks!

[@A-Nown]

Maybe next time include which hotkeys you are pressing. For a beginner like me it's quite hard to follow if I always have to trial and error what exactly you have done at some point ;)

[@xonartutorials]

Thanks for your comment, will keep it in mind :)

[@daanvanelzakker4213]

14:34 which hot keys did you use ?

[@User-ik2kc]

Welke pad preset heb je gebruikt?

[@xonartutorials]

PD Hollostrings HJ from Spire

[@Exspiravit4699]

Xonar in Ableton 11 I can't get LEAD MIDI to appear in scene 11, I only see all channels, do you know how I fix this?

[@xonartutorials]

You can do Shift+Tab and it switches the view!

[@Exspiravit4699]

@@xonartutorials I know about that short cut but your not grasping my question in the right hand side where you get all the I/Os in arrangement view I can't see the LEAD MIDI in scene 11, all I'm getting is all channels and ch.1 to ch. 16 do you understand now my friend?

[@Exspiravit4699]

Hi Xonar can you help me I specifically bought all the plugins to do this tutorial?

[@mees9990]

Welke site gebruik je voor het bouwen van een track.

[@xonartutorials]

Ik gebruik het programma Ableton Live en heb vroeger ook FL Studio gebruikt. Helpt dit? Laat maar weten als je meer info nodig hebt!🙌🏻
