Thanks bruh

[@newmvpxbadboy2976]

Hey in the mix, you once had a video that showed off a pluging called pop, it enhances your voice or something can you perhaps make another video or tell me wich vid it is i cant find it, it would be a lot of help thx

[@PAXMATMusic]

I confirm this is a solid soundbank

[@SKMPMusic]

Please keep helping me till I become a Nice Producer!😂💗

[@ratul440]

Hi, here I am facing a problem when I am making a beat with this settings. When I am placing the kick in busy beats it changes it's sound on every hit (maybe because of the decay sounds). But I want longer decay and same hard kicks. What can I do to to solve this problem?

I cannot express how thankful I am for you and your existence. Other channels just didn't seem to explain it in a way I could easily process, but you explained it perfectly.

[@Uranicmusic]

Finally, another sound design video! 😍

[@fancha831]

This guy deserves some royalties to all our tracks 😀😂

[@arnevogel1824]

Finally, someone on YT doing this PROPERLY. Thank you so much. Every other video on this has BASIC flaws like not using the coarse pitch modulation right or is not showing on the further processing like saturation. Keep on doing this stuff.

[@inthemix]

Thank you so much, there are a few people doing amazing sound design videos like "synth hacker" but many just want clicks! Thanks a bunch :)

[@cmp1097]

Dude I just discovered you but you are bringing so much clarity and useful, digestible, applicable information to the start of my music making journey. When I started I was downloading sounds from splice like a mad man. Now I’m starting to design all of my own sounds to my own liking. Thank you man. I hope you keep making videos. You’re helping a lot of people out, seriously.

[@JimJuno]

4 years into production and coming across something that big after so long felt awesome 👌

[@chachou59]

From the sound acoustic panels to this hats off man your the truth other people are hiding knowledge to feel superior but you give it all cause your living in us your students. Your knowledge will never fade away💯🤞🏽

[@daemeonation3018]

Did he do one on snares? I watched another one on snares but this is the only guy I trust now.

[@markostalaful]

I think you are the best explainer I've ever seen. How clear you speak and make order of what you explain. All this together with the knowledge you have and the quality of your videos makes your channel one of the best related to music production.

[@mhenke10]

I rarely leave comments on youtube but I wanted to leave this comment for you: your tutorials are fantastic and I am learning a great deal from them. Continue the excellent work! Very simple, straight to the point, and a lot of complex topics covered. Thank you so much for helping me get started on my musical journey!

[@meetra8149]

I really like this sound design series you've been putting out, I find it really useful to better understand things I already knew (or I thought I had). It would be great if you could make a video (or more, if necessary) about creating acoustic-like sounds, as pianos, guitars, flutes, etc.. . Anyway, thank you for these awesome videos :)

[@inthemix]

Thank you, I might do a piano/keys one next :)

[@thilangunawardana4542]

Yes me too

[@antonblam]

Man this tutorial is pure gold, so easy to understand even though I'm just a beginner. Please keep doing videos like these as much as you can :)

[@qahrmusic]

Your thumbnails are eye-catching. Awesome tutorial btw.

[@inthemix]

Thank you, my best friend makes them for me!

[@alexperry8561]

I'm not even at the point in my learning where I would need to make my own drums, but this video is also great for just learning the sounds that add up to a kick - thank you!

[@djcato]

I love your content man. I use fruity loops so honestly I’ve found that your channel is one of the most educational for me! Much love to you and yours! Stay the grind! Great video 👏👏👏

[@gargleblood]

just bought the mini fl keyboard and tying out fl studio, and following your tutorials, great helps me a lot being a newbe, cheers

[@gamechops]

Great tutorial

[@djovercut]

Thanks for making this - you explain things very well - you give enough info but you allow/encourage the listener to take it further and explore.

i maked a music because of this video and i called it "ya balad" this is so good man!

Never get tired of your videos and I'm always going back to the older ones to refresh my memory.

[@devarni]

Great and thank you for the great video! I will definitely test it! For some reason you always think of what you already have at the end. Sure you can use Kick 2 but basically it doesn't do anything different than what you can do with Serum

[@owens.]

This is super helpful!! I love sound design and I know I’m limited with the kick samples I use. Now, this makes everything limitless!!

[@CyberWallX]

man the quality of your sound design tuts is nuts. please keep up that great work!

[@AbhayRajan]

I have learned a lot from the sound designing series, it would be great if you add the summary on what did in the video in the description, this actually will be useful.

[@nikitaalaverdyan6791]

This video came exactly when I was looking for it! Thank you Michael! Little tip here : I've tried slightly FM-ing the sine wave by itself in Sytrus and the kick sounds even fatter. Also adding a kick top on another channel really helps the attack cut through

[@inthemix]

Thank you! I just tried this and it adds a nice character to it and definitely helps for the more beefy tone!

[@anthonymetcalf660]

Yes! FM at 2/1 ratio slightly is a great start. Surprised this doesn't have more likes at this point.

[@nine-o]

Was able to follow along with StudioOne 6, using Mai Tai to create the kick. The process to set up the same filters was different, but achievable. Transient Shaper is awesome. Very good video, Thank you!

[@matteoperron5436]

i fucking love this guy, so soothing to listen to. Not to mention the great way he teaches

[@jamelabanderson4474]

You are saving me SOOO much time searching (and $$ in presets) by showing me how to do things myself via this series. You rock!

[@vkmusicz8160]

Voice chat was pretty chaotic but it was worth this video...so I'm happy 😂

[@inthemix]

Yeah I need to figure that out!

[@ILoveSweetWaterMelon-ti2sq]

Punchy kick: ----------- Basic sound objects: Sine wave. | V Pitch bending and duration: From 330-50 hertz in 0.0-0.1 second to 50-40 hertz in 0.1-0.5 second. | V Fade out and duration: The sound of sine wave smoothly fades out in 0.1-0.5 second. The technique is easy.

[@slence7676]

Hope you can check out your older videos comments (Didnt actually look at how many comments you get haha) I just wanted to say thank you for giving out all this information. Its like you always got whats needed, so I'm really grateful to have found my way to you and Servida, LifeStyle and Kyle right at the beginning. Your (you all) video quality is outstanding. Big Love from the midst of nowhere in germany

[@emildobranszky3656]

Fantastic Presentation as always! I really like your style! So comprehensible and calm! All your words are a treasure!

[@christoph8509]

This series is done so well. the way you inform others is done sensible. i hope you make more drum synthesis so others aren’t limited to the use of other people’s samples. not to say that is a bad thing.

[@liisabar8900]

Bro, this by far is one of the BEST vids I've seen on subjects like this! I cannot thank you enough for the simple explanations we're able to follow along with, as well as the results we end up with while doing so! I learned so much from you watching this and doing what you did! Going to sub to you and keep learning from you! Thanks for teaching noobs and dummies like us so we can actually learn not only what to do, but spend a little time on 'why' we're doing it! Awesome man! Liked and subbed!

[@coreyhughes1456]

Dude thanks for all of these free tutorials. Your work is greatly appreciated!

[@bennethos]

Surprisingly good video, well done. Always good to split low and high part of the kickdrum. Eq and compression is key. Hz on when the decay starts is also key. Usually above 50 is good. cut very low freq under 20 or a bit more to prevent muddiness . And watch out for phase cancellation when messing with low ends.

[@mikec2837]

This is awesome. I've watched a lot of tutorials where they use operator instead of Serum but this is by far the most straight forward one and easy to understand ( in terms of the process and what we are tweaking/why). I feel like i can really follow the same process and get creative.Please please do a Synthesized snare one!

Kick 2 is nice 👌🤠

[@capocapo8538]

Wtf is kick2?

[@slappemor1]

Im pretty new to music production, and havent started producing kicks yet. So when the time comes, is Kick2 the plugin i need or can i easily use a native fl plugin and get pretty much the same result?

[@jonathanfoe5125]

@@capocapo8538 It's a drum VST. Basically, it has three samplers where each sound can be manipulated individually by pitch, amp, transient, and more. It's the most versatile drum synth I've seen so far. Making kicks is objectively faster with Kick2. It has a lot of presets aswell.
