House Drum Techniques That Will Change Your Life

[@cashew_music]

ozone 9 exciter, saturn and inflator saves my drums every fuckin’ time

[@Barfunkel]

One cool trick for the ghost percussion channel is to put a vocoder in there somewhere. It makes it kinda noisy and "blurry", so it sounds a bit less like just delayed drum hits and more like this swooshy reverb thing that fills in the gaps between the drum hits. Doesn't always work but worth trying anyway!

or a flanger !

[@ZenWorld]

Life Changing BBBYYYY

[@groovytechrecordsnl]

Yooo I bloody died at 13:50 with your "mamasita" freestyle 😂❤🤣

[@simenga4414]

Drum loops editing is so key, great tut

[@Joel_Harris]

man that ghost perc tip changed my life for sure!!

[@rawbinmo]

Thanks!

[@zaffronmusic4050]

Bruh I’ve been holding off buying presets and sample packs but I’ve gained so much from this I’m buying deceiver to support you

[@adamdarling]

You won't be disappointed

[@MrBackstaba]

You can automate the length of the Clap by using LFO from Max for Live. Set a Saw LFO Shape and map it to the length of the sample in Simpler.

[@Suba932]

You can also set your drums in gate mode so the midi clip lenght actually reflects the lenght of the audio

[@jacksonischillin]

you can set the sampler from trigger to gate and automate the fade out knob!

[@TehAwesomer]

The ghost notes via a send is an interesting one. Creating a unified ghost note across multiple percussion elements seems like it'd add both texture and coherence.

[@vladiatormusic]

At 6:46 you can instead right click on the audio loop and select "Slice to new MIDI track". This will chop the sample by transients (or by note length if you choose) and then you can mute notes that you didn't like or move them around. Would be much quicker to experiment with, than painting the volume automation.

[@edgartheincredible]

The drum loop idea was awesome, never thought of taking hits out with volume automation

[@susanwojcicki5714]

i get bored of house then i hear ur example and i like it again

[@Calvin-Kleinveld]

Massive tip in the secret section!! I do this with sidechain, but this is much better!!

[@BeatAcademy]

Homie switch the clap over to the classic mode in the simpler and just automate the sustain knob. ;)

[@andrerydz4597]

Always best content on KZbin. Thank you so much. 😎

[@vovkaman1]

The Best Zen

[@buzzandjim4265]

Bip bip.. back to brush up on this good shit again.. you make me smile brother. Which sample pack of yours is currently the best for tech drums? Cheers

[@michaelmccool2038]

use the fade in and out knobs on your clap or hi hats and it helps you fade in and out dynamically like your talking about

[@joekoonziii2840]

Wicked- I'm new to this and creating drum textures is a challenge- this gave me alot to work with and listen for- thanks🤘🤩

[@TiagoMilanov]

refreshing to watch this guy after making music at 6Am :D

[@adriancarrasco4865]

OMG that ghost percussion tip had me like 🤯

[@JamieTK]

If you want a masterclass in Accentuation listen to any ODESZA track 🙌

[@woodenelephant1265]

Why have I never seen this video so many quality tips 👍🏼

[@andyarmayor8437]

Awsome tutorial!!! I’m have been watching your stuff for about a year and it has helped me so much !!! With my music !!! Just want to say thank you and keep them coming brother !!

[@LeviT-music]

Man, thanks so much for these tips! Totally game changing on production! And big thumbs up for the mamacita vibes ! 13:48

[@bigfreak58]

I just love the tips you kick out.

[@LP-ug9rv]

you can map an lfo to the fade out when you wanna alter the length of the clap/hat on midi

[@ejikegaetanonnodi711]

TRULY LIFE CHANGING

[@keffi7066]

You’re the bloody goat zenny

[@antonioalcaraz6820]

Ready to get back into it again. Thanks for the inspo papa

[@RedMaskoffical]

Hope your doing well man . Your videos and talent is so underrated . Keep it up friend

[@santiagodelafuente211]

Love it man!

[@riquelmista6153]

This is TOP knowledge, thank you very much!

[@kevynruiz2087]

Dude you're so guts, thank you for blessing me with this knowledge

[@collins_channel8643]

Been here since 2018 and its crazy to see how good youve gotten at both video and music production!! Keep it up bro!

[@potatosan4250]

one of your best videos to date!

[@unsaved6]

Use clip volume when chopping loops to still have control for mixing on the channel fader. Use drum racks to trigger single drums hits, it’s easier to control it with mpc or logic groove/swing presets that way. Slicing audio to midi is also a good idea like someone pointed out

[@axeldavid8036]

It would never have occurred to me to edit the Drum Loop on the Envelopes to remove the claps. What I was doing was moving the arrangement to remove the claps manually and then render. Thank you very much bro !!

[@iamdreWhite]

13:48 best part of Tutorial

[@gabsy8151]

hahah I think it's actually 14:45 but true hahaha, wtf happened here

[@djlick2]

Switch to classic control on the Ableton sampler and the automate the sustain or decay....that is how you can automate the length of a drum sample.

[@thegoodkush1017]

I was just gonna comment this lol

[@Karabast]

or in 1-shot mode switch it from trigger to gate and change the length of midi notes

[@Civicsi2017]

Bro you the Goat so much inspiration!

[@DJ_Victor_M]

Great tips Zen Master, thank you for sharing with us!!

[@AdamPearceMedia]

you're an OG man !

[@GuesthouseMusic]

Good Stuff, G!

[@rct3lol]

Zen world always makes sure i get some new inspiration! 😎

[@user-vd3if4wq6m]

Drumloops are not cheating, but creating everything from scratch is usually an 'Auto-Original' sound, In my opinion. You should be able to make a banging drumloop/drum parts, getting there will add all the necessary tools and technics you need. KZbin is full of the same tips etc. There are so many unique approaches that come with understanding the tools /combination of tools etc.

[@jacobcespedes792]

this is fire.

[@mrgibonskc]

Great tips again, thanks!

[@oraclesolas7121]

[@jb123abc]

👍🔥 always good content bro !

[@millean.]

This is sooooo important

[@JoeyStaletoTV]

Once again Thank you

[@buzlanes]

I love Fl studio, but those editing opportunities in ableton make me extremely jealous

[@Stratlover]

wich ones?

[@Brohnzi]

I switched to Ableton 3 months ago and will never go back to FL

[@Stratlover]

@@Brohnzi it just your taste, imo i wouldn't switch to a word looking daw but much respect.

[@Stratlover]

@@Brohnzi but i'm thinking to switch to logic pro

[@Brohnzi]

@@Stratlover ya it all comes down to preference. I've used logic as well and its also pretty good. You really can't go wrong with any DAW if you know how to use it

[@alexeikai]

thank you!!!

[@mindfreak6599]

nice video bro

[@diegopalomarelectronicmusic]

very nice, on your example of lowering volume of sample, i only do that on session view but in arrengment mode, i beilive its easier to delet parts you dont like then consolidate as a single sound, this way you have a better visual perception

[@pietroguglielmini1417]

I agree. But probably he was working with a drumloop. So he didn't make it personally. I usually use drumloops too, I don't make them from scratch.

[@zeepster]

6:38 You want to use CLIP, not MIXER. Otherwise you are automating your channel volume.

[@hubertprieger1766]

beep beep. HP from Germany checkin in. Great video and thanks for all the work you put into your videos! Where can I download the LFO Midi maxforlive...can't find it....

[@cekirdekci32]

this was genius omg.

[@TheParkerwessel99]

When you use loops in this way, how do you make sure it doesn't clash with the swing that you may have on your track?

[@viniciusnogueiradesousa1040]

melhor conteudo, vlw mano s2

[@keeganjackson6511]

Lesss Gooo 🔥

[@j.veroni]

I was surprised you left out making specific drum sounds early or late.

[@sebastianmarin6342]

my guy looking tannnnnnnn

[@zaanee]

with the randomize LFO, I feel like Chris Lake used something like that in turn off the lights maybe???

[@zaanee]

Or he just vocal chopped it lmaooo

[@plagiarhythm]

good ty

[@TheRealDJ2Ten]

Nicely done. What is the Vocal Eye randomizer? Where to get it or how to create it?

[@matttorrence2900]

How do you defined tech house exactly? Is it halfway between techno and house?

[@cekirdekci32]

this was great

[@angusab3269]

thank uuu

[@RedditRecap1001]

random question but how do you solo multipole tracks at the same time?

[@sjoerdHoogland]

what is the song in the background at the beginning and the end of the video?

[@torha3096]

Great tips 🥇. But at 13:49 😅😅 is supreme . take care mamacitaaa, stay way from him 😅

[@maxlights1]

7:33 thanks
