I could listen to that last patch forever.

[@tavishsharmamusic]

Sounds so much like what Daedmau5 would make!

[@jhosepgrago6930]

27:34 WoW , is a very beatifull

[@Kaiju_Kam]

how did you make the arp at the end

[@RealDafuh]

@@Kaiju_Kam i am askin myself the same...since an hour now, i try to arp that sound hahahaha

[@aqua3418]

@@Kaiju_Kam Bottom left hand corner. It looks like the arp isn't coming from serum , but from another section of the DAW

[@okthenguys]

@@RealDafuh Did you ever find out how? Need that arp haha

[@XenoghostTV]

@@Kaiju_Kam Compose the melody, it's easy

[@red0ctane19]

Bro this series has been incredible. Appreciate it man. Wanting to get more into EDM and Dubstep recently as there are just so many hip hop producers and I feel I can't be as creative. Picked up serum like a month ago and the inspiration and knowledge you've given me is crazy.

[@MessingerDAD]

best series on serum.

Compression reduces volume. As signal volume crosses the threshold, it starts compressing the audio above that threshold according to the ratio (e.g. you need to raise input 2 dB to get 1 dB increase in output). So the volume is reduced, but just for the loud parts of the signal. It's compressing the DYNAMIC RANGE of the signal. You use gain (commonly called "makeup gain") to compensate, so after restoring the output so the compressed high volume in the output matches the uncompressed high volume in the input, effectively you've brought up all the LOW volumes so more of the signal is louder; that's why the compressed audio seems louder overall. "Knee" is how harsh the compression kicks in at the threshold; a "weak knee" will start compressing before the threshold, but not as much as the ratio above the threshold. Attack is how long the compressor takes to kick in; with super low attack time you'll lose the transients, e.g. on drums. Release is how long the compressor takes to "reset" after the input signal falls below the threshold.

Thank you very helpful

[@marc.lepage]

If anyone is trying to google it, it's "Haas" effect (not anything to do with "house"). It's a few ms mismatch between left and right channel, so you still perceive it as one sound, but it sounds wider than if the same audio was hitting both ears at the exact same time.

[@RichGreen-ok9oy]

Wicked stuff Zen, learning heaps. Thanks man. Would love to see a series like this on Phase Plant. Much love from the UK.

[@bronsmusik5771]

Thanks for this series! Really great. If anybody wanna understand the dampening effect: what it does is it makes the highs loose volume faster.

[@free_Sdot]

the best serum guide

[@x3non500]

I love this series I definitely learned a lot from it :D Looking forward to the next part!

[@andrewturnerlasers9128]

Loving this tutorial series. I really like how fast you go through all the functions and deliver pin sharp explanations... and killer sounds!

[@Audimattis77]

Can you make a video on Blinders style leads and basses?, they’re so dope. I’m thinking of tracks like leaving and Relieve. 🙌

[@AMbiencesRadio25hz]

I love you #zenworld From past 2 years apparently U helped me lot...... 😇

[@Wouterferdinand]

Where did that arp/sequence come from?! It sounds amazing! Also the “C minor” plugin? it seems very handy to create melodies. Can you let us know?

[@okthenguys]

Did you ever figure it out? Really want to know how to use it

[@symbiot7098]

@@okthenguys he said it could be used in an arp like effect. try throwing an arpegiator on your serum software ins track

[@olliebeannn2239]

P sure the C minor plugin is the built-in Scale plugin (under MIDI effects)

[@sa-le4mj]

yeah i was trying to figure out how that arp was playing

[@marc.lepage]

@@sa-le4mj Look at the transport control in Ableton Live (at the top, above Serum). He's just playing some MIDI. So he has the arp sequence saved.

[@domx6189]

verry edjucational video's so far looking forward to seeing the rest of the series!

[@snysound]

To those wondering how to get the arp sound, get the Xfer Cthulu vst or look into ableton’s midi effects.. there you will find the chord arp and scale :)

[@airanmilian]

Last sound was fye

[@hydralicious9315]

Very nice. Thank you.

[@archiearch95]

Really good video and you explain thinks very good learn a lot

[@Franzware]

Just a reminder,new Serum update available...By the way another great tutorial!

[@ElijahMoore-Restfulnights]

awesome videos dude

[@drewbarker1331]

Huge help man! One question, what did you do here 27:00 to get a series of looping notes running thru serum?

[@JIDEHHIGHELEMENTS]

great serum serie , thanks , looking forward for the next

[@marc.lepage]

Tap delay seems to keep a period of time before the delay starts, and it's not the same as the time between each delay echo.

[@RUMImusic]

awesome. thank you

[@Kifon]

these tutorials are awesome!

[@TDiamond777]

Your using 2 stock plugins in ableton @ 27:20 but I cant see what they are, What 2 plugins are you using to automatically arpeggiate the Arp you're making in Serum

[@FootballJona]

Another awesome turorial dude! Would you recommend Spire or Sylenth? :)

[@Nomisuryoutube]

Awesome videos thanks !

[@MK-yz2pr]

Yo, I was trying to make the exact same sound as you did in 19:18, but something is wrong. Yours is just different, more deep. When you've added envelope 3 it start to sound different than mine (20:00). And I was doing the exact same thing, I even used the same numbers as you did. You have this loud pluck with lows, having this surfing vibe, mine is like flat and really silent with no depth. You did something to that sound that isn't visible on screen or something? Because I just cannot do this no matter what I do. It can be that I have normal speakers and not good monitors?

[@SparksinyourEyes-Aj]

Toooooooo good your ⚡

[@PushYourLuck]

Dropped a like for this nice guide! ❤️

[@shanebobey9435]

I used the exact settings you did at 19:58 but my sound is completely different to yours.

[@Fak3Cake]

22:36 Crash Bandicoot in da house

[@dizflashbeatbox348]

i dont know why, but i cant move the knob for multiband (compressor). i cant change the mids, highs or lows there, when i activate multiband

[@DjPjX]

still learning from this, almost 2024 🤙

[@alexhatzis44]

wow the arp at the end

[@jared4559]

17:21 gave me a good laugh there zen lmao

[@CamzifyOfficial]

[@jayembuckley4882]

That arp wow

[@SparksinyourEyes-Aj]

Your explanation 😘💯🙏🏻⚠️🧿💣

[@aribenjamin862]

At 27:01 where'd you get the arpeggio from? Is it in you hardware? I was looking for some arpeggio's in serum haha

[@marc.lepage]

Look at the Ableton Live transport controls (top, above Serum). He's just playing some MIDI that has the sequence.

[@garrettkleitz1035]

How did you set the key while you were making the noises at the end? This is an ableton trick that is hard to find!

[@marc.lepage]

The C Minor effect in Ableton is just mapping each of the 12 MIDI notes as input, so they don't just go to the 12 notes as output, but fall onto the C minor scale. In practical terms, it means he's removed some of his keys from his keyboard, so whatever chord he plays, it maps onto C minor. (So he can't hit the "wrong" keys.)

[@정희-b3k]

what is OTT?

[@laveras6641]

I only use the eq when I might want another filter and used up all the other filters tho lol

[@YouAreWithVishal]

Zen World I Don't want to say anything about my all type guitar emulation request but Can You Even Just Reply Yes Or No on it...😢😢😢😢

[@whatwentwrong4599]

Sorry but when he said damp knob I burst out laughing

[@Aqquinox]

27:00 What arp generator are you using?

[@marc.lepage]

Look at the Ableton Live transport controls (top, above Serum). He's just playing some MIDI that has the sequence.
