The Making of Voidwalkers

[@dougmcleod3413]

Hi All, the full version of this is in the School of bass and its AMAZING... probably the single best production resource i've ever watched, listerally the ENTIRE process of Austin making this track, if you really wanna go in deep, get ON the school of Bass :D

Thanks so much man! Glad you found it beneficial :)

Watching this video makes me really think about a couple of things: 1. Nobody is perfect. Nobody can create the greatest sound, nobody can complete a massive project in an hour, and everybody has their own strengths and people are different in many ways. 2. Patience is key. Being patient is such a strong attribute, and Au5 emphasizes this with the time it takes to synthesize a good sound in this video. It may take us time to get the sound we most truly desire. 3. Stream of consciousness - Austin draws inspiration from his mind and converts it to Ableton. He brings his thoughts and thought process to life, he doesn’t let the things he doesn’t remember stress him out. 4. Imagination. Austin takes (probably hours) to find a sound (that has yet to be resampled/mixed/etc). He starts with operator and messes around with it to construct a simple melody. As somebody who aspires to make music one day, this is definitely a source for me to start getting things started. I love your simplicity when you do things. I love how you are constantly working to work things out in Ableton. You are probably one of the most creative and influential producers I have ever had the pleasure to watch, and listen to. -Morgan

[@dizzymoosic]

i love this. i'll keep it in mind while working on my own music. thank you

[@alidrumcover8208]

Everybody has strengths but Au5 has no weaknessss..... Jk, thats awesome

[@avokado1386]

awesome takeaway, thanks for your input!! these are all very good reminders

[@nathaos01]

Now thats a powerful comment

[@ol7505]

Thank you for your words of wisdom Morgan.

[@LevelNoneMusic]

THIS is how you show a project file. Not the Mumbai Power video Skrillex tried to pass off as a "look into his process". Thank you Au5, for keeping it real.

[@leukocytethebloodcell5373]

Nope. This is how you advertise your course. There are plenty of walkthroughs waaaay better than this.

[@renesh026]

@@leukocytethebloodcell5373 I think you are confusing actual walkthroughs with this "excerpt" from a walkthrough. Check the description.

[@leukocytethebloodcell5373]

@@renesh026 terminology does not really matter in this situation. The idea stays the same

[@DestinyAwaitsChannel]

@@leukocytethebloodcell5373 The real difference is the skill level and the insight into the workflow he has. That's not something you see many top tier producers put out, except on twitch.

[@penisdubs]

Mumbai power wasn't really a "look into his process" thing lol, it was recorded as a simple visualiser for the song. Anything you learnt from that vid was purely coincidental

[@shidosensei.]

My most favorite part about this track, is the lead that sounds like an actual electric guitar, I’m so proud of you man

[@carbon_kusanagi]

you are easily one of the most talented people in the universe

i love the fast pace of this video. For those of us that don't need an explanation on 'how to create this sound,' short videos like these provide instant inspiration. So fun to watch. Thanks Austin.

[@ubicypher]

When will you do another collab with Fractal?? Where is he? Those years with you two were gold!

[@V1EREK]

AU5 is the sorcerer of sound design... at 3:10 he managed to Make an electric guitar out of a fucking sawtooth wave and even added some pitch bending- amazing

Hell yeah! As soon as this song dropped I recognised it from your School of Bass Masterclass. Awesome as always

such a ridiculous inspiration and teacher. so glad you exist Austin, you've done more for me (and so many others) than you could possibly imagine!

[@carsoncreates1602]

I really like these walk throughs, they have helped me learn some really helpful tips! Like when you showed off adding a small bass hit right before a drop???? Genius!

[@adrianho6453]

2:51 I thought the guitar was real lol. Whether the guitar is real is not important. What is important is that it sounds good. It sounds pretty noice.

[@avokado1386]

im so glad i was born at a time when i can witness this, readily available so very grateful for everything youve done, Austin

[@codexstudios]

[@TripleTSingt]

I really like that you don't just use Serum for everything. It's an amazing VST (that I'm just starting to learn rn), but if you use the exact same thing every time, it can hinder your creativity. Using other software forces you to get to a similar product differently. And maybe you find something interesting on the way.
