I see this as an electronic composers sampling dream. It's so much more musical and creative than normal sampling. Certainly not so difficult to get what you're after.

[@chikeonyema4451]

Holy crap, I love this guy! You just made the entire software make sense... We need more teachers like you in this world!

[@Unicornbassprincess]

I've probably watched 20+ hours and read articles and this is BY FAR the most helpful tutorial.

[@SmokinAce609]

This was the easiest tutorial I've seen on Serato! I literally listened to you as I made a beat! ~Subbed~ Great Video!

The FitnessGram Pacer Test is a multistage aerobic capacity test that progressively gets more difficult as it continues. The 20 meter pacer test will begin in 30 seconds. Line up at the start. The running speed starts slowly but gets faster each minute after you hear this signal bodeboop. A sing lap should be completed every time you hear this sound. ding Remember to run in a straight line and run as long as possible. The second time you fail to complete a lap before the sound, your test is over. The test will begin on the word start. On your mark. Get ready!… Start. ding

No kidding, this saved me from thinking I don't have ideas or can't produce dope beats. Thanks for putting this out here!!!

Support Serato! I started mixing in Serato PRO, I'm from Brazil and the price is good. This week I started with Serato Studio and it is so intuitive, i'm loving it. I can't afford a FL Studio version or Ableton... and really, Serato is evolving a lot.

[@yotrakzproductions7324]

I've had this Serato trifecta for about a year now but forgot I had it and was going to cancel my subscription to them. This is an amaaaazing DAW. Glad I kept it. Thanks!

[@BeatAcademy]

Good choice!

[@Etcher]

Serato Studio has revitalised my artistic output. Such an amazing scratchpad for getting ideas together. Export the stems as audio, import into Ableton and master. I've made some of my best work in 20 years since getting my hands on Serato Studio two years ago.

[@Lonersquare]

💯💯💯💯💯Dope Little Tutorial. Things are explained well here, especially for those who jump on this DAW years afterwards.

[@janetrpkov9094]

This explains so much more in depth than the tutorial videos from Serato, thank you!

[@thedjinstitute2966]

This is the best video for basics with Serato Studio. Well done mate. Very informative and easy guidelines. Excellent work.

[@BeatAcademy]

Glad you think so!

[@RealSenku]

Dude you are a living legend! No one else has been able to actually fucking explain this and you just crushed this shit man. Extremely helpful

[@BeatAcademy]

Glad it was helpful.

[@pulotu_]

bruhhhh this is freaking dope! been a big fan of beats music n just last night i started getting into learning it & today i'm glad i got to watch your channel. thanks for sharing.

[@lifeskunks4217]

Thank you man like I’m just here getting constant dopamine rushes thought stuff like this was hard was checking out this a few months ago but dropped it cuz I thought I couldn’t do it but stuck threw it paused and took my time thank you man god bless

[@Nobe_Oddy]

WOW!! I can't believe how simplistic yet powerful Serato Studio is! I'm used to Studio ONE, but cut my teeth with Reason , with Cubase as a host. Things were so much more complex back then. Does Serato allow you to bring in VST's? If so, could you do a video on that? THANKS :D

[@BeatAcademy]

It does allow you to use VST

[@kento121212]

8:10 you can put the sample at its original bpm by clicking the purple sync button above it. Serato automatically syncs it. If you click the button it will unsync

[@Blxxdcxlt]

only thing im struggling w this video is your curser is nearly invisible & impossible to find lol

[@generalx2]

Bro idk why people disliked this video but you helped me out man

[@jadymusic]

You should recreate Gone by Charli XCX. I would love to know how to create that bass patch plus it would be a fun challenge since the production on that album is so elaborate and crazy. I feel like that would be right up your lane. You’re so talented man and these videos are such an inspiration, thank you!!

[@FXBilliards]

Outstanding Video - I left feeling like I could jump right into SS and start making beats and I have not even opened the software yet. Thanks for such an informative video.

[@thrillerkiller6309]

can you do a video on how to record in serato studios and how to mix and master

I like this What I'm missing is chopping up beats. There's a slicer in Ableton that makes crazy cuts and changes and transforms a run of the mill beat into a masterpiece.

[@johnchallis4504]

Thanks for this overview. It made more sense than Serato's collateral! Good stuff...

[@reactionwithanthony6113]

man made this look easy....thanks for guide

[@dieselfueled7395]

I just started playing with this software today, I've never picked up audio software in my life but I started looking into it and it looks a lot like video editing, just with sound so I'm really interested in working with sound editing because I feel like it would make my video production game that much stronger.

[@BeatAcademy]

Hope you enjoy it!

[@dieselfueled7395]

@@BeatAcademy definitely did and made a cool first beat. Is there anywhere to get some hands on training sessions you know of?

[@wokheartmafia6243]

im having a problem with sound like everything is muted but not muted yk

[@qromblyk401]

yeah same did you find out how to get it to work

[@Rafaellasvegas]

happened to me , but it was that I had SOLO'd specific tracks which is why i coulnd't hear.

[@let_the_wall_fall]

very good tutorial, definitely understandable for a beginner like me. Thank you

[@daydreamer9633]

[@johnne86sd]

WOW, this workflow is actually really cool! Need to try this out now.

[@ProdDxpii]

[@will30x]

the best invention since the wheel

[@Cher1124]

This was a really Good tutorial! And the beat is awesome!

[@ginbulag4000]

Damn it! I need a computer! What is the best computer to play with serato? I appreciate your awesome tutorial bro! Please don't stop doing tutorials.

[@reubenshaw9080]

[@hectortroy6471]

Dude thanks for making this video it was super helpful I'm new at the beat making thing and you made this so much easier to understand.

[@fatalfyre57]

Help. None of my things in the top right quarter are making sound. I click on the stock sounds and none make noise, and when I make some patterns and play it, nothing happens soundwise. I’m so confused

[@bxnesLoL]

I don't know if anyone else is having this problem. But when I tried to put an audio sample like he did at 7:36 . Then when I try to play it, no audio/sound plays. Can anyone help or explain please?

[@JimLigon]

That beat is sick.

[@trenttruelove4478]

so with adding cue points is there a reason why i can only add one and then it will stop the track at the point of the first que? i cant figure it out and its whats stopping me from being able to get past like the 8 minute mark of the video and its very frustrating. if someone can tell me how to fix this that would be much appreciated

[@snapgilla]

Do you know how to fix the velocity on the pads. I need the pads to play at the same level

[@uptopboogie8]

great tutorial, the sync is great for old pros to, ctfu

[@kamhaftboomkam3993]

the perfect intro tutorial. I'm a subscriber.

[@pkliskiki1800]

Ok so where are the other sound options? Like I see there is attack and release but where is sustain and decay? On the other hand where is the control to echo and reverb for exempl

[@deepak8586]

JUst amazing I'm new to Serato!! thanks a lot!

[@nightshadeentertainment6568]

7:54 really caught my attention as a EDM/Drum & Bass Guy...I'm interested now lol

[@kingofthekilo]

When you click in the library of instruments it plays a little preview, that isn’t working for me. How do I do it?

[@goosew3266]

Sick Video Bro! Keen to get cracking on this platform.

[@generalawareness101]

I am finding the more I attempt in Serrato Studio the more I am finding it to be extremely limited. Might just be me, but here is an example. I have the intro repeat 3 times. Then I want a drop to hit for two notes long then go into 3. How? If I slide 2 next to Intro it deletes 3 because it is too close. Isn't there a way to make this thing as short as I need son 2 would be only two notes long in my composition?

[@rxmundi4732]

great video! You really explained each element well, thanks so much for sharing

[@liquideeriemusic4691]

bro can i adjust the scene to 1-3 only? i'm making a beat and i just need a 1-3 scene but it always go to 1-4 when i place it to the song the end seconds are mute xD

[@Fernando-kd6ks]

How can you save the beats you’ve made?

[@immctwisted]

i think you have to record it live, there a record btton on there

[@arandomman755]

What if I dont have the files for the beats? because they arent colored on my screen

[@Mro-px1yx]

Is seraro a good studio to start with?

[@shidodesu_]

question: whenever I try playing my beat, it doesnt correspond with the beats i clicked on the grid

[@arwinpamintuan4952]

Hi could you respond really quick but where did you get that love me right sample?

How do you save your beats on sorato?

[@HamBurgerStudioz]

did u find out

[@skatas2578]

That was extremely helpful..thanks a lot!! Just one question: How can I play the whole sample, withtout needing to break it at 1,2,3... etc individual slots? I mean that I want it to be continuous, the slot 2 to start from the end of 1 and the slot 3 from the end of 2 etc...

[@agreemghimire7683]

Thanks man, this was so useful.

[@kingrico73]

Is there any way to make a sample longer so it loops right?

[@cleitonreis2781]

wow very useful indeed, I'll use the paid version as soon as the dollas istn too expensive in Brazil. Thank you guys!

[@mpk888]

Don't know if you're gonna respond to this but the clean 808 drum kit that was supposed to be built in but it says it's missing file, if I download packs it works. So do you have to download a pack for the built in ting or how do you locate the missing files? None of the built in stuff is in there, just what I downloaded.

[@SoccerReader01]

This was super helpful, thanks!

GREAT videos B A. Can you please make a video dedicated to "Mastering" using Serato Studio. This is where I am not sure if I am going about it correctly and everybody leaves that part out of their tutorials. Many thanks, keep up the good work and entertainment

Right I been searching all day

[@donshaq]

Thank you . Tonight, I feast

[@chrissneider7550]

Hi, thanks for the Video...couple of downsides guys 'n Serato Studio v2: Automation is not intuitive, it should be able to record and capture changes in plugins, such as cutoff movement, resonance, macros, etc in real time to be recorded. Automating them later is a nightmare (try Avenger Synth w/ hundreds of parameters...good luck). The audio algorithm is mediocre, because if you put a Loop and synchronize it with the speed of the project, the audio is heard as 'under the water', but if you don't change the time of the project, then the audio is perfect. It has 8 recording times (measures) per pattern, very little, it should have the option of at least 64 to be able to record long and more complex introductions, at least give us that options in settings. The Limiter and EQ and compression sound excellent, but do NOT have access to the individual parameters ....seriously Serato programmers ? year 2023 ?

[@illmarten1073]

Great Tutorial content, to make it even better use the windows Zoom in feature, so we can see what settings you are changing, Right now the Interface of serato is a dark gray with small buttons, and your mouse cursor its also gray !!!

[@patricksmaga8497]

this is the perfect tutorial thanks

You're welcome!
