[@ComputerMusicMag]

Thanks for taking part. Big up! :)

[@dazzyboy1000]

I agree. Best tutorial I've seen so far. Superb stuff!

[@cyberpunkbg140]

When i watch other tutorials they always saying . I make this with this and use this synth for this .

[@marwanb433]

umm wow that rumble tho !! thnx so much for this helped a lot :D

[@bennethos]

Not because I’m Belgian, but he’s got some of the best tutorials on the net and have learned a lot from him ! Tom, if you ever decide to launch a proper course I’m in.

[@rollyhustle]

He recently did one on SINEE :)

[@krystiankash2129]

Tom best man and old good times with Bailey, Karakasis, Skaloumenos and more. Exactly 18, 19 years ago I started to listen to techno and that was techno of you. Whatever was released on vinyl.

[@drthorpe8602]

you are the coolest and most down to earth man in techno. thank god for people like you and joris voorn

[@deniskesiov3594]

THIS IS THE REAL LEVEL OF TEHCNO .... THANK YOU MAN !!! .. THIS IS REAL JAZZ OF TECHNO ... PURE TECHNO / only master of music can bring this VIBE .... its not for everyone / Pure Techno MUSIC, not experimental wanna be stuff ... At in the end is so much music in this tutorial started from Scratch ....

[@ryansturgiss4115]

I am extremely grateful for the kick drum processing you showed in the beginning. followed your steps and it worked! This is an instant upgrade in skills for me thank you :)

[@Andre-gu5qd]

I love it when tom says why

[@raincoatcat]

Beatiful

[@skovbowden8113]

The kick sending to the return track applying the delay filter and convolution reverb is awesome and extremely easy. Very good !!!! Thnx Wim !!!

[@tomhades]

;)

[@lilunclesucc2567]

starting out in the techno scene, major help! Thank you.

[@wiggertvanameijde4584]

@@tomhades does it matter? Often when i try this the key of my rumble sent chance from the original kick does that matter?

[@wavesman]

Thank you Tom for sharing your 20 years experience with us. I am learning a lot in each GOLD tutorial. So thankful really ...

[@analogsynthtim8823]

Thank you. This man is so helpfull sharing his workflow. I can learn a lot and it is a pleassure to listen and watch

[@THEREALDATALORD]

Thanks for the studio setup idea. Looks great.

[@alexweej]

To save time going through the new audio track -> resampling -> record -> convert to MIDI process, just create a MIDI track with Scaler on it, set its MIDI input to the track playing the generator post FX (i.e. post MIDI FX!), and you're sorted. Note this won't work if you programmed an arp in the synth itself, though.

[@michaelfearn83]

guys u need to have a direct signal with mic overdub. can hardly hear the audio properly

[@tomhades]

yes, something went wrong there ... but ok, i guess you get the picture ! and included in the magazine you can find the download to the whole project ! :)

[@stefanhansen5882]

This is brilliant! Amazing tutorial and wonderfully down to earth guy.

[@shahedsaffari365]

I was hoping he would show the kick processing - damn! But another great video from. He bails every time. Simple to the point and very honest! Thanks

[@emil5468]

you can find similar kick processing chain on All You Need Is Live channel on youtube. btw Tom recommend this chanel on one of his masterclass

[@emil5468]

or you can just buy kickzilla plugin :)

[@DNVRNV]

My respect to Tom for techno kick rumble idea, also need to try all this LFO tricks (specially shown on ADE masterclass)

[@hulqen]

You had me at "techno rumble" :)

[@dicasdoanthony]

Great video, great tips. Now I think I will produce techno too. Thanks.

[@osmanbowser2663]

Great vid! Thanks for your time!

[@andreebohlin]

Holy shit, this has probably been the most helpful video I've ever seen on how techno is produced. I haven't even made it past the 15 min mark and I'm already overflowing with possibilities of playing around with sounds and rhythms. Thank you, seriously. I cannot stress this enough, you've completely changed the way I view music for the absolute better.

[@bluefirexde]

I'm at 10:00 and have already made progress with a new track 😅

[@andrepinto7895]

Thanks for the great video Tom! Just a small note, you picked the B flat minor scale (not the B minor scale) and when you did the drag-n-drop from Scaler you copied a chord, not a progression (then you created your own progression). These are just small things, but it can hopefully help clarify some of the terminology.

[@mikemore7562]

Tom in techno production , you are just my god. you helped me alot in workflow or way to create my music. vele groetjes Mike more

[@czujaz]

Time to switch from FL to Ableton.

[@DAMATRIX]

Great tutorial once again Tom. Thanks!

[@KorbenLeelee]

I find it hard to watch this tutorial to the end. I end up inspired by Tom's creative idea's and open up ableton instead.

[@tahirhaithem9841]

I feel ya

[@retop56]

Great teacher and seems like a nice guy!

[@tomhades]

thanks ! :)

[@djdonovan]

Been following Tom for a while now and really appreciate seeing the process firsthand. A lot of subtle things to observe. Getting 80% there can seem easy, but that last 20% is where the subtlety of the art form comes in (and is most time consuming). I'd love to send you some tracks Tom!

[@tomhades]

thanks man !

[@Bolle128]

pure gold. thanks mr. hades

[@okruznizatvor]

Tom this is the best video by far I seen. It provide many answers. Thank you very much❤

[@Red-gl2cb]

One of the greatest producers ive been listening to.

[@tomhades]

thanks !! :)

[@john9291]

Thanks Tom, easily the best tutorial I have seen for any form of electronic music. Really makes me want to go back to software.

[@tomhades]

Thanks John.

[@molina.unofficial]

Helped me a lot! Thanks Tom.

Nice workflow! Thanks for sharing! :D

[@vaxdatex8540]

How can one access the complete class? CM doesn't seem to be set up to provide content any longer after a certain point. All links from CM website are dead ends.

[@DjMattDowney]

I really like this guy! Loved the video!

[@tomhades]

thanks man !

[@myx0asd]

TY!! great lesson and beatiful track ^^

[@LamontStigler]

Thanks for the kick drum designing...great tips!

[@tomhades]

pleasure !!

[@LamontStigler]

Goe gedaan!!! 👍😊

[@marcoose777]

Have you seen this too, you may not like the style of music, but great info here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sHWrf3iEfs2lrc0

[@PabloRodriguezwhyCharlieWhy]

Great Scaler Tip..... even better than the Scaler Tutorials that are out there!!!!

[@tajniag]

You are a really smart guy and have an superb feeling for musik especially for techno and you are synced with the software like one it is delighted to watch and listen to your class. And the music is great ofc.

[@rumtrax]

Good video and nice explaining from Tom, thank you!

[@einzigkeit7216]

Thank you so much Tom Hades and CMM

[@tomhades]

pleasure !!

[@JustinMarrone]

Tom Hades - "BLAST". Best fuckin techno track EVER.

[@adenaas9108]

This is definitely the best pro Techno tutorial I've seen on KZbin !! Tom even asks himself questions related to what he's explaining and then answers his own questions... = brilliant! Totally brilliant!! I got some new techniques from this vid even though I'm using FL Studio.... Tom would you recommend FL Studio for making techno I use it but only ever seen Hip Hop producers using it?

[@tomhades]

thanks ! for me all music software nowadays is soo much grown that i think it doesn't make any difference what choice you make ! :)

[@housebrigade]

Try bitwig

[@aristotl3296]

Ade Naas you can make music on anything. A lot of hits have been made on FL. The daw doesn’t matter, it’s more about how well you’ve learned it.

[@pelleprins81]

Ilario Alacante uses FL Studio as far as i Know

[@ZinglZanglBoB]

i think it's more about which workflow fits better to your style. in the end you should try all the famous DAW's to get the right one for your mindset. When you've learned the interface of 1 daw, the next DAW will be in your mind in half of the time and you will experience a lot of new techniques, which will also help you in your main-Daw

[@teeman6909]

Thanks for all the tips and techniques!

[@squeebbb]

I find it a bit ironic that the audio for this wasn't recorded with a direct input.

[@dxtrs_mnpltr]

Buy the magazine and you’ll have access to the direct audio 😉

[@laatlivetv]

Awesome! Thanx Tom for the insights. Some great tips in there!

[@tomhades]

pleasure !!

[@josipmarketanovic]

Thanks for the selfless explanation Tom Hades, I really appreciate it. Apart from the kick part I really liked the "Atmospheric Send Rack". This Master Class is game changer and pure techno in is best form. CM are sold out every copy say on their site,...where can we find part 2, does anybody knows?!

[@Stacity]

Thank you Tom this tutorial was just what I was looking for I was taught production but I couldn’t find any really good tutorials for techno especially in the sound I’m looking for . This is ideal and have learnt so much from this and I loved the introduction into the plugins too . Im now a big fan I bought Arturia V collection and Mbassador and LFO and Scalor . I love your latest EP .

[@808j3]

Very dark style. Like the open 909 pattern.

[@tomhades]

thanks !

Gracias por la clase , saludos desde Mexico ...¡¡¡¡¡

[@martinangelov6116]

I'd never trying to make music on abelton live, but after this I will... your techno tips can be very useful in experimental speedcore/ flashcore music wich I love... so I have some ideas in my head now and alot of entusiasm. Sorry for my english and Thank You!

[@bcnstrct6624]

Solid tutorial ,many thanks . It was great to see and learn how you recreate and your resampled edits .

[@tomhades]

nice !! :) thanks !

[@mrptails]

I really like this dude

[@AgentOrangeDJ]

Wicked Tutorial Tom! Great tips in here!

[@tomhades]

thanks !

[@tommymai3062]

Repsect to Tom hades for doing this. Not many producers go on here and explain in detail of the process. His process is seriously computer music, zero human but hey it doesnt matter how you get the job done..as long as its done..

[@Max-ml2hc]

Tommy Mai How do you make Techno without any Kind of Computers? I mean Even analog synths have algorithms and stuff

[@reimanfredi]

@@Max-ml2hc Be carefull please!!! My first "Love Parade" was in 1991 in Berlin and there was no PC with all the virtual stuff existing and the sound was ..... WOW .....!!! Yeeeesss you can!!!! What he is explaining is too long and made de vid boring ... Experiment with the stuff you have and you can get out a good result

[@bboygurhan]

Tom is the man Tom is top Tom is cool Tom is fantastic

anyone else notice how the hi hat changes pitch specifically every time his hand gets closer to the keyboard? magic?

I love this man, really!

[@trevorcoleman9125]

You can include master and return effects in your bounces now (at least in Ableton 11) -- I guess they heard Tom's feedback!

[@ploppyplopper]

Really enjoyed this and appreciated it. Learned a lot. Bought the mag for part 2!

If I leave what I'm doing looping over and over while I'm working I end up hating it before ever getting close to finishing the track. Its really annoying.

Thanks Tom! Loving the music and I'm studying this tutorial like people studied the Zapruder film... lol...day and night.. thanks so much Tom .. you're awesome

[@Helena081107]

it's probably a better idea if you use the zoom display function next time, so we get a closer view on what happens in the FX down there. Especially with bigger screens, Live just shows you more of the middle part, and doesn't get any closer on the instrument or FX racks. I remember years ago trying out a tv screen in a store to use with Live, but as soon as I realized Live wouldn't show me the FX lane any closer, I lost interest. But of course, that was before they had the zoom display option. Zoom display is great when you work with bigger screens.

[@tomhades]

good idea ! but it will be for the Computer Music guys ! :)

Computer Music logo is obscuring the screen so you cannot see which max audio effect he is using (which convolution pro preset) kinda frustrating
