10 music production tricks (learnt from Au5)

[@au5music]

Thanks for making this!

[@romyn8726]

Hey, how do you actually apply the curve to your track? do you just put a pro q 3 with a tilt on 4.5db per octave on the group and try and mix it in? referencing it against the white/ pink noise?

[@DiarrheaFartss]

Hi

[@thesesmallboxes]

This reveals an insane level of production skill and the knowledge to wield the technology we have available! Bravo AU5 and Multiple (edit:apologies… Multiplier!) for making it available and understandable!

[@jimmifuckets]

And bravo for this comment good sir!

[@geraldtoaster8541]

Multiple

[@DAWNation]

So stoked for this video, Multi!!! It was an honor working with you again

[@sionnachs_workshop]

A heart warming collab if I must say. Ye guys been teaching for a long time now, and we all appreciate it!

[@DiscoTuna]

First vid I have seen of yours. You are super clear and structured with densely packed content. Thanks for putting this together.

[@electrospector]

Good to have you back man!

[@Meanpeagreen]

As someone who mostly samples and makes beats, I'll never be able to wrap my head around this aha. I could never engineer or make electronic music but this is fascinating stuff!

[@V1CCZ3XX]

that's only because you haven't set your mind to it 😉

[@peen2804]

It’s almost like you have to idk… learn it or something. Why do people act like others just wake up one day fully understanding an art form. Like people that see someone playing and instrument and go “wow omg how do you do that I could never do that”. It’s almost like they spent the time learning how to. Crazy shit huh

[@Meanpeagreen]

@@peen2804 not at all! You're being way to serious, firstly! what I mean is engineering is the least interesting part of production to me, and creatively the ideas and songs/beats I come up with aren't in that genre. Basically this isn't something you can argue with me or lecture anyone about. I'm aware of what I'm into, enough to pay attention and learn that, I don't HAVE to make every genre and master my in own projects 😅

[@ultimate.funkypunky]

@@peen2804 well... yes I think that's what he meant, I totally get the "I didn't get good at it from one day to another" because it's something that also frustrates me about people, but he's just saying although he enjoys making music he could never do the things mentioned in the video because it's too much for him, the same goes for me, some people just do this for fun or do different kind of music, that's ok~

[@thchris]

@@peen2804 there is so many ways to make music now.some people do crazy things in their daw like shown here, others might sill record their live jams to tape and just leave it at that. the great thing is you have all these options to do something you really enjoy. i don`t like how much of the modern electronic music sounds. its just way to loud and harsh.. don`t even know how to describe it. but that's just my taste. i would never make music as shown in these videos. i still think it great to learn about this stuff because hey maybe I will use some of the things shown here, or they might just inspire me to try something new.

[@じゃみっと]

Great to see you posting again

[@saltywalty5396]

Wow this is huge! Gonna need to watch a few times to make sure i can actually implement all these great tips.

[@airkicksmusic]

Very outside the box audio production tips, this is awesome, I wanna see more of this

[@kltpurp2206]

I AM SO FUCKING HAPPY YOU ARE BACK and making regularly insane content like this!! I have been watching your videos since I was 12 years old… I’ll be 21 in February. I can’t wait to get your new sample packs !!

[@EDMTips]

Great vid, man! Thanks for sharing :)

[@MayGuitaMusic]

Au5's a genius, thank you for the video!!!!

[@rebirth4119]

Corpus is basically the convolution reverb of resonators basically. It will be cool if someone can make a plugin that can scan the resonance of an audio file and save it as a resonator impulse perse. Also give the option to mangle the impulse response like frequency masking the non resonances out and then apply that to an input sound.

[@au5music]

Check out MCabinet and MFreeformEqualizer by Melda Production, or wait till I make a tutorial about them. They can do exactly that, with WAV import analysis and IR export :)

[@wowflower]

these are great tips for all genres tbh. thank you so much!!

[@matboi]

Thank you for this! Super useful knowledge explained brilliantly :)

[@LeateqOfficial]

Thanks for this !

[@serpieromusic]

That's so cool :), thanks!, I enjoy dubstep and electronic music but i mainly create hip hop, etc, you know, but I think these technics can be useful in the context that I'm too, that's whats great about music

[@oz1836]

So many advanced tips, great video, keep it up!

[@familiaroddity1193]

Glad to have you back to making more videos. Missed you dude. Hope you’re doing well.

[@JamesRamboPearce]

You and Noize London have been brought into this course!

[@EdSoloUK]

I just bought your 'Magic Crackles' been looking for sounds like that to layer on my bass, thanks

[@radatabass]

Ed Solo, major co-sign!

[@dacomposer]

This video really opened my mind to so many production techniques. Thank you for this.

[@acupuncturmusic]

YES! Now I can finally find out if that course is worth it!

[@AI1983-r1k]

These are insane man...really, and thanks to share this kind of stuff.

[@wrightseaman5417]

I love this. Thank you my dude

[@FabianMazur]

Good stuff! 🔥🔥

[@TerenceKearns]

This is unreal. Great video!

[@TheSkySentinelOfficial]

Yooo, learned soo much in this short video of yours!! thank you so much for handing some of your knowledge to us!

[@rdmptn3828]

holy shit the remove fundamental tip is a gamechanger for my wave reese basses

[@donotoliver]

good tips! satisfying even the advanced producer

[@thallsinestro7537]

Adam, thank you for making videos. Over the years I have really enjoyed your content.

[@johnpatrickkotermanskijr6308]

Voxengo Span Plus has a static graph with "beige noise" which is 4.5 dB/octave, very useful

[@elcapitainadel972]

Wait a second this guy said he cant hear properly How is he still doing this work Amazing

[@JohnPaulBuce]

thank you im definitely using all of these now

[@timsamsung3736]

great great great knowledge🔥 Bravo!

[@ApollyonBainer]

Im learning things that I didn't know I needed to learn. I love this so much

[@VincentSteenstraToussaint]

loove this, great stuff!

[@PPedroFernandes]

AU5 is freaking incredible, clicked immediatly

[@MastrKillz]

Doing the lords work

[@GuKrugerMusic]

At the end of the day, nobody knows what they're actually doing. We're all just randomly tweaking knobs until it sounds good!

[@dechkaHD]

THANKSSS A LOT FOR ALL OF THIS ! Details makes the difference :D

[@colombiasb3st]

Using all these right away!

[@bionikpulse]

Insane techniques thanks for debunking all this brother you’re beautiful

[@baddiemcbadbad9231]

That 4.5db trick is awesome

[@elyot4010]

INSANE! Btw, watch out for that brown noise

[@lifedecoded9842]

I've been looking for an FL alternative for Corpus for a good couple years & I can't thank you enough for putting me onto objeqdelay - absolute legend

[@Выйдет]

very helpful video thanks alot❤️

[@OnDaBeatBoy]

GREAT video thanks!!!

[@wes_the_scifi_guy]

Oh snap I can use object delay as corpus that’s some good knowledge

[@howischris_]

your youtube is about to takeover.. keep up the intentional vids.

[@ClaesLanng]

Amazing tricks, AU5 is clearly very intelligent and creative, and your way of explaining some of his tricks really helps us understanding how to achieve the same effect/modulation to other objects

[@OriginallyG]

I really believe that music will be the last art form that ai takes over. Ai will not be able to make a song even remotely close to say, Mr. Bill's work anytime soon, and that goes for a lot of other producers. That being said, i believe the freelance work such as, jingles, generic genres for commericals, etc. will be replaced fairly quickly, but not the real art that producers are making.

[@francobuzzetti9424]

added to the "remove fundamental" i often find myself removing the highest harmonics off of saws and sqaures to remove aliasing and fizzy sounds without needing much lowpassing ,those get as low as 8k sometimes

[@mrhappysmile8018]

Thank you ❤

[@MikeOst]

Very very useful, thank you!

[@AKAtAGG]

Subbed, top class stuff on this.

[@OperculumAudio]

I like this stuff

[@chrisp5823]

actually wild video

[@Shinyshoesz]

Incredible thanks for the mastering tip. Totally stealing that! I do that kind of manually but having just one custom tool to do it with a knob is a great shortcut for consistency's sake. :)

[@vyrin]

great video, super understandable

[@sokoleski]

a lot of really good stuff..

[@donniemp3]

my brain is exploding rn im learning so much

[@DUniquemusic]

thanks you 🎈

[@RemAtmos]

Shoutout to Worldwave for the quanta noise technique there

[@ikbuhguh]

thank you dude

[@punchilux5783]

I still use ozone 5. The eq matching is the best!

[@hypeventure]

Facts: Corpus thing in Ableton can actually used to make Reese bass for breakdowns :)

[@conlangknow8787]

Markaplier

[@gdm_music]

thats really crazy!

[@otlilostcorenature]

I'm a fan

[@IntricateDolphin]

spent the whole vid waiting for this dude's kamehameha blast

[@Frankie_G_]

thanks

[@Dominickleiner]

good video, earned yourself a sub ;D

[@RegularGuyJake]

Great video. Earned my susbscription.

[@marvinmusiic]

13:34 best part

[@angelalawson5862]

You obviously understand ableton very thoroughly! Have you ever dealt with the notification “file doesn’t have audio attached” or “file might be corrupted or unlicensed”? And believe me man I’ve done everything that ableton support suggests. I think it might have something to do with the codec, you obviously use a mac, I am using windows… but it was working perfectly the other day, I was forced to update to Live 11 and now it won’t accept and mp3 files, mp4, wav, anything.

[@MrRexBaron]

greeat vid!

[@huber-lofiandchillbeat]

This looks like very advanced technics for me but so interesting

[@jonwatte4293]

"Bonfire" is still awesome!

[@clipsonthespectrum]

the one that removes the elemental is fucking game changing thanksss

[@abdielmoreno-cruz354]

10:10 I know one day I’ll be stable enough in being able to acquire hard/software to play with the beauty of sound making. Like all these sounds just fascinated me lol. But for now I’m enjoying from afar bcz god it’s so much

[@HC348]

gr8 video

[@razvanrusan9319]

@11:23 phaseplant has a quantized noise type thing in its noise generator

[@Haha_stillsmarterthanthem]

Great stuff !!!! tHANKS! I am wondering does the au5 course show how to sound design the snares and claps ?

[@trapmoneymania]

i listen to your videos to sleep

[@Dareyouhow]

So how did AU5 get his Live theme looking like that... That is sick.. My theme is set to dark but its not that dark and my automation lines are red...

[@sparkplugrecs.official]

Harmer does drag and drop image to audio wavetable stuff.

[@ExecutorHideo]

mefjus and camo krooked do awesome modern sound. au5 its like jacob collier from electronic production. too many focuses, but weak and plastic sound.

[@dougguztav]

Thats SIIICKK😍😫🤌🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@DcJay85]

come again with that quanta noise situation?

[@ephjaymusic]

Legato - Long Staccato - Short Easy for most applications 🙃

[@herschel3356]

Legato staccato

[@JulianFernandez]

hip shit. subbed! thanks.

[@profoundofficial4801]

Would you still recommend this course for Fl studio user's. Seems like most quality tutorials are in abelton but Fl is what I've got so I'm going to stick with it for now hahaha

[@thomasscott4081]

all of the concepts of music production are cross relevant between DAWs

[@SALEENS7GTR5]

@@thomasscott4081 but certain tools he mentions, like corpus, or the vocoder frequency mapping, are ableton specific. Maybe that means ableton has better tools than FL, but like you said, all concepts flow across DAWs. FL users like us would like to know/find the equivalent, and free, tools FL offers for the concepts laid out in this video and others.

[@djkrptdnb]

My question is - do we actually want our tonal balance to be perceptively balanced and flat? Or is that white noise reference more of a guideline? PS it’s always super difficult getting the squiggly line to fit in the bigger squiggly line (for me anyway)!

[@au5music]

A perfectly flat tonal balance ensures that there will be minimal ear fatigue due to no consistent resonances, and an optimal average translation on all sound systems.

[@MrDramatizacija]

Not quite tbh

[@inspir.edmusic]

Depends on personal taste...

[@DPEMOfficial]

Hey bro I have a question, what kind of genre is this? 0:14 is that I feel that it does not seem a simple dubstep

[@BFHPET]

15:03 how do you slice by transients?

[@billyrobot2258]

Between pink noise and brown noise there is taint noise

[@THAMON111]

How do you get that visualizer in your rack on the bottom left at 9:23?

[@sreeailuri1863]

This guy is literally the Jeremy Clarkson of Music production

[@adamsmith7058]

Lol. I've no idea what you mean by that. Is that a good or a bad thing in your eyes?

[@sreeailuri1863]

@@adamsmith7058 its a pretty good thing, but it's mainly based on how he talks so smugly lol i guess experience does that to you

[@catatonichumanoid]

@@sreeailuri1863 yea I noticed that as well "look how interested my voice makes me sound!" Nothing makes me not relate to a video quicker, than using a radio voice with weird ass inflections. So many content creators have donned their creators' voice, and it only works against them imho. It feels and sounds forced. They probably don't even realize that it comes off as condescending, at least to some (myself).
