[@brzi4459]

the 2nd way is very good. my experience with it is that it will introduce problems later when you want to change some processing on the bass, because you have to do it on both channels. so instead of duplicating serum, you could remove the 1st fundamental from the saw wave and add a simple sinewave as 2nd osc or as sub osc, and control the volume with an 1/4 lfo that only introduces the sub when the kick doesnt play anymore. that way you can still have everything in one channel and can be even more precise with the sub volume since i think that controlling it with an lfo is more accurate than with velocity.

[@Projektor_music]

I've essentially combined the whole process into 1 patch: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o3WsZHRriL6qa7c the second thing I like to do is phase allign after I've done my processing. It's kind of a way to force yourself to stick with certain desicions, helping you finish the track quicker

[@brzi4459]

@@Projektor_music yeah thats of course important to not get stuck but i almost always need to change some stuff as soon as i got some context in the track ^^ and seeing those 2 channels was always kind of frustrating for me knowing i have to precisely adjust both

@@brzi4459 for any fine tewaks & such you can get away with not worrying about the phase shift.

Vision 4X (developed by Noisia) is by far the best tool to use when getting this right!

[@Projektor_music]

seems that it gives a single waveform display in stereo. you will need at least 2 different displays and idealy a summing display too. also having it tied to the beat timing of your DAW is helpful so whe waveform does't move around. Seeing as psyscope is free, I suggest people use that instead...

[@Trentcast]

@@Projektor_music You can select the oscilloscope to view left, right, mid, side, and stereo independently. Not to mention you have a spectrogram that lines up with the oscilloscope - much better for viewing the phase relationship. The viewport also displays which bar you’re playing from. Psyscope is nice but I tell all my students to try Vision instead.

[@Projektor_music]

@@Trentcast none of those modes allow you to actually see kick seperately, bass seperately & their sum. which I would reccomend for anyone working with phase as I mentioned. Vision 4x clearly is designed as a tool for overal monitoring while mixing or mastering. Psyscope was specifically designed for phase allignment in psytrance (hence the name).

[@adziak]

I find a one problem with aligning bass and kick with each other, you basically increase the overall volume in a certain timeframe because both signals are perfectly in phase (You don't want that). Kick and bass in this situation interfere with each other in the low sub freq area, take a look at 8:17. If your kick is too long just make it shorter or play bass little bit later and set randomization to zero inside serum and problem will be gone. If you play bass sound after the kick you don't have to bother with entire alignment thing. It is so simple, why overcomplicating stuff?

[@Projektor_music]

are you into psytrance production? First of all phase allignment is not the only thing you have to do, you can sidechain as well remioving any excess loudness. Second, not playing the bass when the kick plays means you get a gallop pattern as oppose to a rolling pattern... so you get a different musical idea which you might not want. Third, if you watch the video you will see that I do indeed set the randomization of the phase to zero in serum, I wanted to make that point to show how important that particular setting is. Finally the kick is not too long, it exactly as long as I want it to be...

[@haridaniel777]

If I put MFreeformPhase (that has a huge latency), oscilloscope shows wrong positions, why ableton does not compensate (others also have this issue), and why you don't seem to have that problem?

[@Projektor_music]

Ableton's plugin delay compensation is track based and not plugin based, because Ableton was designed for live performances, not technically as a DAW. I also have the same problem, within psyscope however I can compensate for it. I believe my psyscope by default opens up with compensation set for the latency of exactly 1 instance of MFreeFormPhase or I might have compensated for it off camera between takes...

[@haridaniel777]

@@Projektor_music Good for you that you can go over these issues so easy you forget how you done it :D I can't go over it, yes it's possible to workaround but it's quite unconfortable. DAW could report the latency to the plugin but Ableton won't do it. Always you have to find the hacky ways if you want to do something advanced. For example you want to modulate with notes (fe: gating), you face 6ms latency, even if you write very simple modulator in M4L, because factory and creative commons M4L devices are mostly piece of *. This kind of Ableton flaws extremely annoys me. Also tried bitwig, but missed the things that really great in ableton like basic devices (Operator, compressor, etc), so came back

[@haridaniel777]

They could not make profit from live performants, maybe they designed at the beginning that way by mistake, but they sell it to tons of people who try to make music at home. I think this is their excuse now for their flaws, probably they can't fix because they messed up their code with tight deadlines over quality. I am a software developer, so know how these things works. And I heard that bitwig guys was the ones who quit from ableton because they had enough how things was going on.

[@Projektor_music]

@@haridaniel777 no it was a deliberate design desicion as it means less overall latency as you only calculate delay once per track and not once per effect on each track. If you are a software developer you probably also know that before starting to code, a design spec is created to see what actually needs to be done and how it needs to work. There is a high probability one of the design specs was to minimize latency so I assume this was all a deliberate choise. I can imagine now that the audience has mostly shifted to non-live production it is indeed hard to recode the plugin delay compensation. Ableton handles each track on it's own thread so the plugin delay compensation is probably tied to the multithreading needed for that. I think neither of us would like to deal with that kind of mess either...

[@happymonster9098]

Hi Projektor, in PHA-979 if you press force mono, both of the knobs are merged into one. I use it that way but I am not sure if it´s a good idea, I am afraid that it is converting the output signal to mono. As is the bass what we are talking about, it should be mostly mono, but are there any stereo freqs that could lost it´s stereo there? Is it better to have a 100% mono bass? Not sure about that, I would like to hear your opinion on the matter. Cheers!

[@Projektor_music]

First of all, it doesn't really make sense to talk about stereo frequencies in this context but rather about stereo content. This is because the stereo signal is nothing more than the differences between the left and right channel. This means that the mono signal is everything that is the same between left and right channel (or the average between the 2) Even more confusingly is that this isn't really a binary thing, some parts of the left & right channel signals may differ more than others and they would have therefor more content in the stereo signal than other parts. Now this should be enough information to read a stereoscope, which will answer any questions you may have regarding this. I reccomend using the free MStereoScope for this as it will be the one I'll use for this explainer: If you look on the interface there is a big round analyzer in the middle. Within this analyzer we see 2 lines ar 45 degrees labeledL and R, forming a 90 degree angle from which 2 more lines emerge horizontally and vertically. These 2 lines denote the mono signal (horizontal) and the stereo signal (Vertical). Now if you play some stereo audio through this analyzer you can see many many dots. Each of these dots will be a vertor product (not important you know the math I'll explain). Imagine now taking one instance in time, there will be 1 sample for the left channel that plays and one sample for the right channel (as in signal sample, not audio file used for music production). We can take both these sample values for the left and right channel and imagine plotting them on the left and right line in the plugin. Now from the center draw out an arrow on both lines to the point you just ploted. Finalli imagine taking the arrow on the left line and attaching it such that it starts from the arrow on the right line. This is where the stereo analyzer will show a dot. So each dot that you see on the analyzer will be a representation of the value of both the left and right channel in that instance in time, represented in a 2 dimensional graph. A final note is that this works because of how we measure amplitude. In reality amplitude in digital audio is a representation of speaker comb movement, meaning that positive amplitude is the speaker coming towards the listener and negative amplitude is the speaker moving further away from the listener than it's natural reasting position. Because of this we can simplify amplitude by representing it between values of -1 and 1, with those being the minimum and maximum extension of the speaker. In this case silence will be marked as 0 (makes sense, silence is just the speaker doing nothing, or staying in it's natural resting position). Given this we know that any signal that only shows activity on a vertical line, a signal will have the left and right channel identical and therefor it will be mono. I don't know what processes you use on your bassline and if you choose to stereonize it in some way, I do and I like a bit of stereowidth, but most producers don't... There is no real good answer here as it is personal preference, however there are wrong ways of doing this with for example panning (which shows as a tilt in MStereoScope neatly shown by the extra line that shows an average line on the graph when playing) or excessive stereo width (usually anything more horizontally oval than a full circle will be so wide it will start to loose significant volume when summed to mono, while it is true that any stereo width results in quieter mono equivilants, you don't have to work in pure mono because of this) which will result in your bass not working in the mix. I know this was a bit of a strange comment. I got a bit carried away and I actually want to tackle all this in a video so this was a nice opportunity for me to already write out some of the main points you would need to know. Also I do have this video which goes over it pretty decently but I can definitly do better now: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pZ2qd4R3o8Zjb7s

[@happymonster9098]

@@Projektor_music First of all, thanks a lot for the extensive answer. About stereo freqs vs stereo content, you are totally right, I meant that but was using the wrong terms. I will try the MStereoScope. I undestand your explanation about the stereo and mono signal, it´s something that I learned in the past but sometimes I forget, so it´s good to refresh it and to put in perspective what it really is. In my bass processing I don´t stereonize (maybe I should). I was talking about mono bass because of something that I frequently heard from some producers and I don´t know how true it is but I have been following and is that having your most basic elements like kick and bass in mono, or at least not too much stereo content is the best as it makes them sound more powerful. No worries about the "strange comment" it was a really well explained and detailed answer and in any case it shows how much you care about your craft and your audience. Thanks, I will watch that video!

[@spectrumofsoundstv]

Hey Projektor, nice new video. It just proved that you're my main developer in music knowledge, cause i already knew everything (thx to your content).. But i have a question lef: Your Basslines waveform in the psyscope is pretty much the same length in every 'up and down' like the kick. Sometimes my basses are like good aligned for abt 2 ups and downs in the waveform, but then it shifts more and more and is out of phase, to come back to a point where its perfectly sligned again,if you understand what i mean😅 Like the ups and downs of the bass are longer than the ones of the kick... If you get what i mean, how to fix that?

[@Projektor_music]

I think in the second part of this video I mention how i like said method because you don't have to tune the kick whereas for the first method you do need to tune the kick for perfect alignment. This is the reason, you cannot phase allign 2 sinewaves if they don't play at the same, or multiple of the same, frequency. you can fix it by tuning your kick if you want to go that route but I suggest not worrying about it & using the second method

[@osulationhit2130]

Another broken technique-so much for phase alignment-somehow it’s going to ruin your bass dynamics when using different types of basslines beyond a sine wave. Whenever you change your pitch or key, the bassline waveform is simply destroyed by this process. It’s not conducive to creativity for composers.

[@Projektor_music]

what? If simple technical aspects of music production block you in your creative process than said creative process was probably not going to succeed either way as there are many many other similarly useful technical processes that need to happen for a psytrance track to work. Of course you write music but said music has to work well from a technical perspective too... also no it does not ruin the dynamics of the bass (I think you didn't watch the video in full as I actually cover this in the later part). the point is to reduce the dynamics to the minimum, giving you maximum energy coming out of the waveform. When changing the pitch the waveform is destroyed, but only if you don't understand phase allignment... If you change notes you have to phase allign the new note again, cus it is no longer phase alligned. so then you fix the issue, through phase allignment. I mean this should be easy to understand right...

[@osulationhit2130]

​@@Projektor_music That is why sidechaining remains the best method. Even top-tier sound engineers recommend this, despite potential phase correlation issues that can be minimized. Your technique is only suitable for a simple, repeatable bassline, such as in the techno genre. However, with complex bassline note arrangements in psytrance, it will ruin the bass or kick dynamics within those frequencies. All you will hear is the kick overpowering the bass when there is a dynamic key change. I just listened to your album, and to be honest, your kick and bassline are totally out of sync and lack proper dynamics and rhythm. In some tracks, the kick lacks punchiness. Even tracks from 20 years ago have better bassline and kick integration without today's advanced tools. You should listen to Bizzare Contact - Seven Days to hear how an old track can have such a good dynamic bass.

[@Projektor_music]

​@@osulationhit2130 the track you linked has a bassline which doesn't overlap with the kick, no sidechain or phase allignment needed... BTW phase allignment and sidechaining work together, just because you do one doesn't mean don't use the other. In regards to my album: I am not going for dynamic basslines, it's no longer the 90's... I'm looking to produce the modern type of psytrance which lacks dynamics in favor of extra loudness. I like that sound so that is what I aim for...

[@osulationhit2130]

​@@Projektor_music Listen to Red Means Distortion, the album by Astrix released 15 years ago, because most of your tracks sound similar to it. This album is one of the era-defining works that introduced many changes in bass elements before artists like Zyce, X-Noize, Blastoyz, Berg, and others who have creative bassline arrangements. I've been listening to psytrance since the millennium and have gone through almost a thousand tracks. When I was young, I couldn't notice any phase correlation since my ear wasn't trained for that. So, an average person can't notice it, but all those basslines give vibes and clarity. And yes, most of them were mixed with analog gear using ducking or sidechain from compressors, so you hear it's not 'overlapping'. Your technique of aligning the kick tail with the bassline, for some reason, is going to sound different at low frequencies due to how psytrance kick and bassline fill the whole track with a fast tempo, and you are not going to HEAR THE DYNAMICS WITHIN THAT FREQUENCY RANGE.
