[@JoThePro7]

In the title, I saw Making Soundcloud Subs (Followers) Using Drum and Bass.

[@silent-science]

Still my favorite KZbin intro

[@aleksi3374]

yes.

[@funkahontas]

I remember when he did it on stream and was fucking around with the video editing software and was like “ what the fuck does this do?” And that’s how he made it, by pressing random buttons lol, and the little song he just placed a bunch of animal samples just for the laughs lol

[@JulianGrayMedia]

right?

[@silent-science]

hell yea, i was in that stream

[@thereallkmofo]

Thanks Mr Bill, always hidden gems of Info in your video content. I'm learning Ableton so much more since I found your channel. Brilliant work, big respect . 🙏

[@morganprevost7195]

I always enjoy the tip... the tip is all i need ;)

[@Goldchunks4]

Thank God for you Mr. Bill

[@bedtimeread]

Mr Bill I added this one plugin called Beatformer, took a little bit out of the boom from drum bus and added the boom from Beatformer right after, Beatformer's boom is a lot clearer and with their other few knobs got some cool subs.. thanks for the vid!

[@RidesInforests]

The continuously legendary Mr Bill

[@Rhekluse]

thanks bill. i'm really likin' that drum buss utility.

[@pharmernorm]

3 soundclouders disliked this already ;) Love your work Bill.

[@jimjamkillsnerds]

I was convinced this was a bad idea until about halfway through- I was like "why not just use a sine wave sub" until you moved the pitch around with frequency. Ableton's pitch bend just won't do those Oshii subs. Great vid dad

[@CoreyIsAussie]

Wizard man at it again

[@void-beats]

we really want to indeed billy boi

[@juanpablofrances620]

Hi Mr Bill, fan N1 in Argentina here. regards

[@NickScottProducer]

You're the dopest!

[@sturlahansson6182]

very cool tip! thanks!

[@carsoncarr-busyframes619]

Love your tuts man - any way to normalize your mic signal though? The line level and intro music are so much louder, you have to turn it up pretty loud to hear you talk... then it's jarring when music happens.

[@sleeplessinflatland]

Gold

[@bunya6939]

i see that getter hihat sample

[@andrewmcgill-brown9864]

Your intro is loud and clear and your voice is dull and low volume, so I turn it down when the intro plays, then up when your voice starts. The volume of your voice to the audio in Ableton seems well balanced.

[@MrBillsTunes]

Thanks! Will be more cognizant in the future :)

[@elvishpretzely9173]

I love your responses to critique Mr Bill... You're never bitchy.

[@ZapyOClan]

dope

[@sethmathis250]

40K is still a wonderful sub count, but Im really shocked that you dont have more. Huge imbalance here. Personally I feel you deserve much much more

[@BojanglesThunderbolt]

You're amazing and this is so cool. Any way you could do a quick vid on how to achieve this in ableton 9? Without Drum Bus? Thanks... and thank you for all the tutorials. they're all very informative

[@norwardradtke1361]

you would need some kind of sub harmonic generator or something that creates super low frequency feedback. fabfilter saturn does when you turn the feedback up for examplw

[@coopadupa]

JUUUST the tip

[@adilbektemirkhanov6750]

katranyada😄

[@SiennMusic]

i love and hate that he calls this type of sub "soundcloudy" hahaha good tutorial, sir

[@MrBillsTunes]

You hate it cos' it's true xD

[@PrimeDigiit]

how u got ableton's piano roll to display a fucking flat instead of a sharp! omg man u gotta tell me

[@MrBillsTunes]

Jimmy Sussman Live 10 just does that I think

[@PrimeDigiit]

Mr. Bill I don’t see it in the main preferences tab

[@nukillerfridaymusic911]

that leading kick to the downbeat clashes with the kick like percussion. Sounds terrible. Having said that, cool video on applying old techniques to achieve dated sounds using new software. Soothing voice to do my Pilates as always. I want one of the downvoters. Rating is bitches.

[@MrBillsTunes]

Nice, so when you do it in your tune, don't do that :D

[@nukillerfridaymusic911]

Mr. Bill I would have so expected someone that seems to care enough about drums to have what looks like a vintage Ludwig sparkle Tom a foot away, to be sensitive to those types of things. Do you clap on 1 and 3 as well? Those types of mathematical polyrhythms never work in this low end.

[@MrBillsTunes]

Lmao, well, as I said, feel free to not do it in your tune :)

[@nukillerfridaymusic911]

Mr. Bill that’s a given. I want you to stop doing it as well. I liked the rest of the content. Can I get you on board with that ? The music of today can be improved one rotund white guy without rhythm at a time.

[@MrBillsTunes]

Lol nah man I'll do what I want :D get rekt
