[@jonassaalbach]

Thanks for the nice chat guys! Let me know if there are any more questions.

[@ProductionMusicLive]

Thx again Jonas for sharing your production process!

[@spacewavez]

Thanks for this session Jonas & PML Crew. I still remember the last pre-pandemic party that you did in London, when I managed to ask you a few questions after the set. In any case, you were asking for suggestions on topics so I'll throw one: A course on melodic content, how to fit it all together. As you mentioned at min 33 i think, newer producers tend to over do it, and add too much, such that the 200hz to 1k becomes clotted. So ways to go around that, how to write/combine your mid bass/melody/chords and keep it interesting as it evolves. A video or full course with Jonas's insight would be amazing. ( looking at you PML :D ). Greetings from Bcn

[@jonassaalbach]

​@@spacewavez Hi Sebastian! I remember the party in London very well! :) Thanks for the input! I will keep that in mind for my next session with PML! Yes, the trick is to limit yourself with tracks in a session. To focus on the main idea and work on the sound design. But I know that's not always easy.

[@dmitrijurovski]

Dear Jonas, please answer my question. In your setup, do you record your Peak, Prophet, and other hardware synthesizers at one of interface universal audio by Unison In or Line In? Do you practice in your work unison preamps? If yes, how often?

[@pgr-music]

Thanks for this inspiring video! Very nice audio-loop workflow! Would love to see more!

[@chrismalice_music]

As they say : Learn from the best! You can see right away that this man knows his stuff, really helpful advice & techniques. Thank you!

[@keonr3604]

This guy explains the track so chill, its like you get lost in the session with him. Love it!

[@EmilyRaceGirl]

This really shouldn't be free, I've learnt so much from this and put together a track that sounds half decent. Thankyou Jonas 👏🔥

[@Karl_Hogarth]

I love everything about this video. Jonas is a fantastic teacher, his mellow, intelligent vibe is very engaging. The track sounded amazing, the videography was perfect I love how you took me outside the studio at the end it felt so refreshing. Great technique displayed by Jonas who I'm sure has truckloads of knowledge. Well done guys much appreciated.

[@ProductionMusicLive]

Oh thank you so much for noticing all the details about this production :) highly appreciated!

[@CraftBeats_357]

@@ProductionMusicLive thanks to you too hugs

[@gavincook2896]

Besides being super informative and full of great tips, this video was just brilliantly pleasant to watch. Really really well done.

[@gavincook2896]

Also, that reverb-distortion-sidechain sends trick is dynamite.

[@lukaszzieciu3144]

Have learned more from this one than from 50 others. appreciate that. helped me a lot.

[@merkelyt]

Diese unaufgeregte sachliche Art, einfach nur wohltuend. Danke, Jonas.

[@DJayDNA]

Don't think I've heard of Jonas before but I really enjoyed this session a lot and believe me I've watched hundreds of videos like this! Great stuff PML, please let him have an entire course, would absolutely love that!

[@ProductionMusicLive]

Hey DNA, thanks! We completely agree and we've actually already recorded a 5h+ course together. Its currently being edited and will be launching soon. 🚀

[@DJayDNA]

@@ProductionMusicLive Fantastic, looking forward to it! Your content just keeps getting better and better. Some serious high quality stuff.

[@MarMoro777]

Yes please !! Another session for mixing. Thank you !!

[@UhligSan]

👍🏼🔥

[@AlphaGeminorum1]

You guys are freakin' geniuses. I'm sooooo glad I live in this timeline.

[@stuartrogers9031]

I really like the way jonas explains the sound design process very cool great sound love it.

[@emfire8103]

Very nice tutorial !not boring!nice track!more like this PML

[@МаксЖиляков-п5д]

Magically! I've been studying music for half a year. I work in Ableton. There are even releases already)) There is so much to remember and know, endless information that your head is spinning! It's good that I saw your channel yesterday! Good luck!

[@Mark_Balance]

It´s a really pleasure to see you working,you opened my mind,now i understand what ¨less is more¨means,great job,and thanks so much !

[@tuhla4ka]

I understand this is more of a marketing video for the sample pack, but it was informative and quite nicely done.

[@deeper_senpai8710]

Amazing how subtle changes can make it so interessting to listen to

[@niclas9671]

Really great tutorial! What I like about it the most is the arrangement part and the little infos you drop left and right that help an amateur to transition to a semi nicely. What I wish for the next tutorials is that when explaining stuff in Live, the size of the Live window should be more present. Maybe increase the size of the window a bit, so we can keep up with all the goodies you have for us when it comes to automation. Keep up the good work!

[@lukeelderkin]

Wow corpus to bring out the "tone" on the congas/toms is a genius tip

[@ScottAdair]

Love this. I'm going to probably watch it five times. Thanks for sharing, Jonas.

[@dema4669]

Love the Reverb/Overdrive/Sidechain return ♥ Genius I always wondered how that sound was made and so simple.

[@francoispml]

Love Jonas' musical style!

[@jonassaalbach]

thank you!

[@papuyonic]

one of the best videos i have seen in so much time, thanks!!!

[@JordanWhiteTechy]

super awesome video! Straight to the point and you explain everything very well! MAKE MORE!!

[@dandemanseyonara2422]

Very cool tutorial guys! I'd love to see Jonas for an indepth tutorial series:-)

[@adamkeena8378]

Big fan of Jonas' work

[@stealtime]

This guy has a pretty solid approach. Although I'm skeptical of the need to tune percussion to key of the song, I think he has a realistic approach to sculpting the space and sound to get mixes on point

[@jonassaalbach]

Hey, there is no need to tune the percussion to the track´s key. I just tune them as it sounds good to me. It´s not a rule, just a feeling. But talking about kicks I kind of think it really sounds better if the kick is in key

[@wdeah]

Great work Jonas, you are doing it very well. Thanks

[@kiickinballistics]

32:16 is the best advice I've heard, and is the reason I not only subscribe to PML but actually buy your courses! They are great. It is the best available resource for learning (fast) how to build your own world-class tracks. Thanks! PML thumps!

[@CraftBeats_357]

Master Jonas Saalbach!!!/and BEST music production PML

[@adriafalco]

One of the best videos of music production I've seen, track could be a bomb! Thanks Jonas :)

[@ProductionMusicLive]

Agreed!

[@jonassaalbach]

A bomb.. I am not sure about it, hehe. But a nice groovy one for warm up sets for sure ;)

[@adriafalco]

@Le Shabin a proper usage of loops, that's for sure

[@super-ulitka]

So cool, outright and easy to understand, yet interesting. Thanks for sharing!

[@worldtraveller7309]

Jonas; "I don't want to bore you" ME: I could go on whatching with my mouth open in total apnea for 4 hours !! love this video, please do other 100000000

[@JohanWave]

This is seriously the best music production video for dance music I've seen. So informative and a great source for an Ableton beginner like me. Thank you!

[@nickshutte8369]

Really great demo of a production session. You have a good ear for filling out and balancing the spaces. Great rhythm and build up to the break

[@franco.817]

so good ! please make another session with mix tips !!

[@AikiraBeats]

Thank you for showing us your process I'm going to add some of the things that I saw towards my own production

[@zepieter]

Jonas, you show a workflow that really makes sense to me, thanks! Great vid, great music and accidentally also the best Ableton tutorial I came across up to now.

[@tonys3976]

Great course. Normally use Studio One, but learning Ableton Live - learned loads here. Bought the pack too - also great.

Awesome session!

Big thank you for the session. Heard you live in Pune, India since then you are one of my greatest inspirations. Would love a more geeky session on how you treat your mixdowns and your approach for mastering.

[@jonassaalbach]

Yes. I was thinking a to make a tutorial about how I am creating my pads.

[@musictom08]

Hi Jonas, toll, dass du dir die Mühe hast, die Produktion eines ganzen Tracks zu zeigen. Vielleicht kannst du dem Ableton-Fenster beim nächsten Mal etwas mehr Raum im Video geben damit man die Details besser sehen und nachvollziehen kann. Grüße nach Berlin aus Sachsen. Thomas
