Oliver is very different. He’s great for inspiring long-term producers

Sol State, bless your soul! Just last night I was looking what racks Oliver uses to no avail. Wake up to Oliver telling me I should definitely check out F9 racks. Your a sorcerer! ❤️

[@domonichimself]

Nice to see someone using .alp to save ideas

[@aaronbazil]

With how incredible his packs are, same with The Kount, and Decap, I'm shocked they're not huuuuuge artists themselves because of how good their shit is... and yet people take their stuff and make hits!

[@who_cares848]

So this is the guy who makes all my drum samples? Nice to finally put a face to the name.

This is by far one of the best videos i have seen thus far, especially in Ableton. Thanks for the great tips!!!

[@SolStateMusic]

Glad it was helpful! Happy music making

[@joskun]

So organized and precise. Subbed. best way to get faster at workflow for beginner? I love mixing!

[@SolStateMusic]

@@joskun Thanks you! Hmm, generally I'd say a mixing template helps a lot. I use busses for Kick, Top drums, Vocals, synths, etc and that speeds things up. You can throw you favorite FX on those busses for quick access. LMK if that helps

[@hunterheflin]

hahaha "I'm not scared". great vid!

[@jgsj2]

thanks for sharing and the technique tips..

[@SolStateMusic]

Glad it was helpful!

[@likenicesinging]

Oh boy, he's sick, thank you for showing him to me! :D

[@SolStateMusic]

Thanks, yea, Oliver's awesome!

[@TechnoJo-ex9yv]

nice, I just learnt a couple of things from your video.

[@SolStateMusic]

Awesome! What was the #1 thing?

[@vxru5]

Deadmau5 did state his love for drone notes haha, its a legitimate technique of his.

[@johnconnor4136]

I like the Serum presets in this pack. Thanks for including them. Based on the first pack you made, I thought you only used Sylenth

[@SolStateMusic]

Sylenth was one of Oliver's old "go to's", now he seems to like Serum due to more options

[@TheMicrophonist]

I'm a simple man. I see Sol State and I smash the like button 😎

[@SolStateMusic]

Thanks, it really helps

[@andycarrillo48]

When he talks about the glue in ableton is that like soundgoodizer for fl studio or nah I fuckin suck with getting my drums to intertwine with my melody.

[@justinjones2595]

I always used Soothe on the master buss!

I do sometimes as well!

[@Jadensound]

I love how this is like a bunch of producers talking not like a teacher

[@SolStateMusic]

Thanks!

[@daz5853]

Did he ever release this track?

[@Jvssvl]

Great video. What’s the benefit of using plugin ott vs ableton ott?

[@SolStateMusic]

Ableton's OTT is more adjustable

[@arminko18]

do you have the original video? since I can''t find it anymore?

[@SolStateMusic]

I no longer have it, but Oliver just launched a Twitch channel, so try that :)

[@verduras]

What phaser is he using at 15:50, I can't make out the name of the VST?

[@wuguhuliajethanbubgokorahe3651]

Air phaser

[@djdancealone3419]

Wait ... so, you don't bounce the mix down then do the master? *Mind Blown*

[@yannickdegroote6079]

Where can I get this AIRPHASER from?

[@SolStateMusic]

It's part of this collection - www.pluginboutique.com/products/2060 Was on sale for $29 a while back, so maybe wait for a sale?

Is there a way Oliver could speak a bit softer? lol Thank you Man for all those tips! (And Sol State for picking up great producers)

[@mishkesounds]

Does anyone know how to save serum presets as ".aupresets" in the ableton browser? I have no idea how to get them to show up there.

[@SolStateMusic]

Hey Sean! First load the AU version (not vst) of serum on a track in Ableton. Once you see serum load onto the track, there is a button is a tiny button in the top right with a save icon. Just hit that icon and it will save preset in browser. This icon is right next to the wrench icon you use to open Serum

[@mishkesounds]

@@SolStateMusic Hey thank you for the response! After doing some research I've found out that AU's are for Mac only and I'm on windows. So as a work around I've decided to save them as single instrument racks with the 4 macros on serum sent to the macro's on the instrument rack. Using filetrees on the ableton browser is SO much easier than the browser in each VST.

[@SolStateMusic]

@@mishkesounds Awesome! You can also try saving by category for example Bass, Leads, Chords in the ableton browser. That's what I do, helps with finding sounds fast.

[@esphurrmusic1224]

Is the sidechain preset can be use in fl? I also have a pro c2.

[@SolStateMusic]

Yes, it's a Pro-C2 preset, so as long as you can load that plugin, you're good.

I wonder if he knows those chords are dissonant though. good job on collecting all usefull video 's Sol State :D

[@isaacanthonydj4124]

I been re organizing my library last night, my brain is trying to make logic out of how to integrate sample packs and foley room sounds into something coherent for integration with my Octatrack...

[@isaacanthonydj4124]

i have my drums and synth go thru my Octatrack as well, so mixing is also very important as i want to take this out as a "live" rig at some point, it's so much easier if i get all these sounds dialed in before any recording happens.

[@isaacanthonydj4124]

LMAO. i used to be "one of those techno dudes" too many kick drums, i stick with 2 now, usually only need one, LoL

@@SolStateMusic such a banger 🔥🔥, would be so interesting to see how you made it, like a breakdown or something. Keep up dude

[@SolStateMusic]

@@TheM0nsterX Thanks mate! Maybe I'll do a breakdown one day. I think the biggest lesson in that song is: get the kick right

[@TheM0nsterX]

@@SolStateMusic yup, i think kygo said the same" if the drop doesnt sound right try another kick". Do you tune your kicks or just go with the ones that sound right?

[@SolStateMusic]

​@@TheM0nsterX Oh thanks for sharing that! I do that too. The more I produce, the less i care about tuning, but a lot of effort goes nailing the sidechain. If it sounds right it IS right.

anyone have fl studio templates? stock templates :DD or not w/e

[@wesleyleigh4063]

Honestly, the thought of everyone everywhere using the glue compressor as their only compressor for drums pains me. like of course given it mimics an SSL it can work, but by god man, where is the spice!
