You Suck at Producing: Warmth

Sharpe did it first (But fr FrankJavCee, Based Gutta, Mr. Different, BusyWorksBeats on a good day, and more producers already put comedy in production)

Best description ever

[@fiercekoolaid7711]

"Can you explain sidechain compression to me?" Clarence ducks as Derek has another outburst and releases his anger of his absent father on his nerdy brother

[@CyberneticArgumentCreator]

@Lopyt *Sir_Guy* It's similar to autotune and rap music - some people actually like the jankiness of "wrong" mixing techniques. Very similar to how distorted guitar came into popularity 60 years ago

[@wipje41]

@Lopyt *Sir_Guy* Music For real. It needs to be real subtle or used creatively to come out nice. It sucks in commercial productions 90%. /watch?v=SE7o3gJ_3R4 this is p sick imo.

from a vinyl surface of a record

This guy's humor is on another level. You know you have mastered this program when you can make jokes about music production, and people actually get something out of it that they can understand, a real teacher right there.

welc

[@apothecurio]

Your channel also works as a "Ableton for people who have already used a DAW" tutorial. Thank you so much.

[@briefcasemanx]

When you turn the threshold down that far, it's not "super compressed" or "super crunchy" anymore. The point of parallel compression is usually to get a VERY compressed signal, and then mix that in with the clean signal to preserve some dynamics. Try like 10+db gain reduction next time instead of 3db like in the video (which is light compression). Most of the sound difference you're getting from having the plugin enabled is probably from the "soft clip" button, rather than from the traditional "parallel compression" sound.

[@yousuckatproducing]

you're absolutely right timedog.

[@trashcat3000]

You should make your own videos man

[@drcurious3924]

Literally nobody wanted your opinion

[@HonkTheMusic]

@@drcurious3924 I did. And it's not an opinion, it's a criticism of how he used his parallel compression plugin. Clearly You Suck At Producing wanted his input as well.

Amethystic nah fam. I don’t make music yet. So I didn’t really care I just watch these vids for fun so idk who your attackin bro

ok that flute from sample actually blended up with the rest beautifully

[@Infowars-nh8cq]

I heard those limbs break on that kick and instantly felt the warmth of a crackling autumn bonfire

[@dmtspeck]

this was great. i was a big fan of "You Suck at Photoshop" in college but have been messing with ableton lately and trying to find someone who actually presents a succinct video where they aren't whispering for an hour. thank you for this.

[@yousuckatproducing]

thanks, you suck at photoshop is my main inspiration

[@Dhakadice]

Mild compression, some dry signal, white noise, ducking, vinyl crackle. Got it!

[@DrChliin]

That flute in the noise sample actually fit perfectly in the track imo!

[@enterprismhouse]

This is the best tutorial channel by far. "You really wanna hear those limbs break."

[@tyjuarez]

Questions: 1. Why did you use a utility to turn the drum volume up, instead of raising the makeup gain? 2. why did you loop the noise from the drum sample, when you were already going to add a sample of some vinyl noise? 3. Why was the Sidechain set so harshly, when you were going for warmth? Shouldn't it be more subtle? 4. Why did you use a pre-recorded sample of vinyl noise, when there are plugins that can add vinyl crackle based on the sound you add them to? You could have added that to the keyboards, and it would've balanced better with the noise from the snare, especially if the Sidechain was smoother.

[@yousuckatproducing]

1. leave makeup up to activate soft clipping in compressor 2. idk nice effect i guess 3. i like sidechain to be real obvious 4. i find that plug ins don't get the sound i want

[@pgr-music]

Love the series, keep it up man! Already hyped for the next one

[@gabinlecrafter]

Save up some money for outboard analog compressors, saturation, etc. and it will go a lot longer of a way and bring more actual warmth into your life than anything possible in the digital domain.
