I personally think anybody using loops is cheating i used to use them whenever i had beat block but now any samples i use are from old songs, i make my own melodies now
I use Fl Studio, Ableton and Logic and have created the same song on all three with no variability. It's not always the tools you have but how you use them.
@@michaelcucchiara bruh I just got an iPad not long ago and was blown away by how easy garage band is and it's perfect for sketching. I def make music differently on it bcuz usually I'm always going thru my libraries looking for samples but with GB I just set a key and keep playing layers in myself.
Speaking of Skrillex I ask Chatgpt why his productions are so good and this is what it told me: "Also, keep in mind that skrillex productions often involve a team of engineers, sound designers, and other professionals working together to create a final product." It said he's good but I say this because big artist have access to resources that we don't have, and what they're always selling us is a bit of a facade.
So happy I found this GEM of a channel! WEAVER idk who the hell you are but your hilarious and very educating when it comes to the music production world and I really appreciate that, most of the youtubers in this genre are giving us a bunch of bullshit that they don't believe themselves they are just getting paid to promote some product so they lie about it for that paycheck and the views. You keep it real no matter what and I really respect that and most viewers don't want ppl feeding them bullshit so channels like yours will live forever and succeed for a longer period of time then the BS guys.
It's 2023 and people are still seriously hating on FL Studio, especially its design and workflow. I mean, I love those DAW war memes and sh*tposting stuffs but those people seem to be GENUINELY hating on FL just because it's literally 'built different'.
Music theory is essential and I get pissed when I see UA-cam videos saying it's irrelevant and you don't need to learn it, yeah that's fine if you can't be bothered but don't wonder why your music sounds like shit and like everybody else. You don't need to learn it to a degree level but knowing basics like the circle of 5ths, major & minor scales and chords will make you a better musician/composer/producer. I spent 9 years from the age of 7 having Trumpet and Piano lessons and studied A level Music and Music Tech at college in the UK. If I didn't I wouldn't be a Musician, Composer and Teacher today.
Sample heads always talk like they're doing more than lining up someone else's music to a loop. You literally couldn't make music without people who don't use samples making it for u.
You have to use sidechain in extreme forms of metal. In fact, until I started producing i thought people just played their guitar like that. They don't.
Do you have another channel with videos making beats? I would definitely understand if you didnt. Seems like way too many people are doing that. And sooo many are not to there point where they should be doing that :/ Like, not even close. Anyway....Just curious
10:35 omg i really hate when people say that. i swear people act like the internet is only youtube instagram and twitter lmao. youtube tutorials literally only gonna get u so far. so much knowledge out there
If you’re still debating DAWs… it’s a tale tale sign that you have a long way to go 🤣 I use to be that guy and no one will invite you to the cook out with that mindset
I feel like pluggg is definitely it's own genre, cause plugg n b stemmed from it and plugg n b has its own wave rn. But at the end of the day just make what you wanna make !
i don't think not using samples means you make bad music at all but i have not heard a single person brag about not using samples that makes good beats. idk it's like that attitude just breeds shitty music lmao
Hardware does negate some issues with inaccurate peak detection(the reason streaming services ask for files with -1db true peak is because of this inaccuracy) and cramping of high frequencies found in digital domains. In digital you can fix these problems by oversampling. BUT oversampling creates further issues by altering the impulse response which can smear transients and fuck with your compression and limiting. Software is almost as good as hardware. But software has fundamental inaccuracies and distortions which are present in the mathematics they operate with, which are not present in hardware, since hardware operates by the laws of physics, instead of informational abstractions. That being said, Im 100% in the box, and I'm fully satisfied with digital, for now.
Here’s my hot take: I hate that a sub bass is now called an “808” yah I get that it has a pitch envelope but it’s still a sub bass. It completely ruins any conversation about actual 808 drums, I can’t say how may times Ive had to clarify that. These are the same people that came up with “aux cord”
How to make any loop free: half time reverse pitch and then chop that bad boy up might as well be a new melody or you can look up actual music theory chord progressions because there is a name for almost everything you wanna do learn and apply takes 15 mins
Hmmm. the one about shitty mixing sounding underground is interesting but I would say that was the case 30 years ago when really the only way to get a really polished sound was get produced by a major label, because hardware gear was just way to expensive for the average dude to contemplate owning. Due to this there was definately a preference for crappy sounding music {Nirvana Bleach is a great example of this. Its charm was that it sounded like it was recorded in a trash can. I think today though, you can make a really great mix for virtually free with software and learn how to mix on UA-cam so there is no excuses for sounding like shit.......
2:58 analog is probably better for feedback patching but it def costs a lot more. i design analog modules instead of digital for the most part just cos i wanna do something different and make each not just the same shell with different code
Lmao😂 who ever wrote that metro post needs a reading comprehension check. Track list literally has everyone he’s every worked with on it. IT IS 110% not a INSTRUMENTAL ALBUM. Like Donuts as for example 😂
would love to know your opinion on the best way to upload + grow as a new producer in 2023 lots of youtubers make videos on that, but they just tell their own story and don't give an opinion for new producers
if you want to know the difference between digital and analog, then NULL TEST. I nearly guarantee its probably going to come out as almost completely similar.
1) Ableton is horrible, but I use it live, because nothing else less horrible can beat Ableton for that use. 2) Everyone uses samples to some degree these days. It's nearly unavoidable. 3) 808's are drones to me, like any drum resonance. Nobody says "you can't play that tom here, because it's a C tone and this is in Bm". 4) I don't understand any of what these genres of electronic musics are. I just make music that is what I want to make. 5) I made the best music I've ever made before I learned music theory, but I had honed my skills and understood a lot of how music is made by playing covers live for 25 years. Now that I know legit theory, I overthink my choices a bit too much and play it safe.
You might have a naíve take on the danger of AI. It will improve a thousand fold every year. And although progress will be made by humans who innovate new styles and patterns, AI will be quicker to adapt to it than maybe the artists themselves. Have you heard of Joseph Heller? He wrote ’Catch 22’. But his best book in my opinion is ’Picture this’. Among other things it addresses how Rembrandt in his later years barely could make a living, because everyone was stealing his style. Imagine what AI can do?
P.S. I also love that you take a dump on Kyle beats, when I first started teaching myself music production through youtube I follow Kyle and many more ppl but he was def one of the ppl I watched the most and overtime I started to realize that he was only on youtube for views and money he doesn't care if anybody learns anything from him so he will spit out all kinds of fucking bullshit like its fact. And yes his 808's be out of tune a lot. Glad you said something. Ppl like him are making it harder for the younger guys still learning to actually get to where they need to be, but most of all he is a scam artist, he gives you a product for money but when you get that product you realize he just sold you a hot plate of trash that you can actually emulate perfectly with stock plugins, he is selling ppl stuff that they already have he just put it in a new package so you can't see if your new to Music Production.
I've just got into music production for fun the plugins and the daw you use do try to rip you off as much as they can is a mugs game the cost is a joke if your making money form music it ant much at all what I've spent so far lol its a mugs game shame
I make my samples myself, but I've been using free(hah.hahahahaa. AAAASRGH) samples for a long time for training. I don't see anything wrong with using other people's samples, it's ok if it helps with creating something that will make someone happy(even if it's only you). Awesome video, man.
The loops I use are free. Then again, I make them myself.
He’s not talking about you

Skrillex is good because he works on his music constantly and doesn't rest on his laurels.

Garage uses samples all the time. The drums often breaks.
Sample heads always talk like they're doing more than lining up someone else's music to a loop. You literally couldn't make music without people who don't use samples making it for u.
Perfect music lacks character. That’s why we make things slightly out of tune or slightly off the grid.
You have to use sidechain in extreme forms of metal. In fact, until I started producing i thought people just played their guitar like that. They don't.
There is A LOT of samples on the new Skrillex album. There's actually a video on youtube dissecting them all.
oh wow there is more than i thought. i thought some of these were "collabs" because the sampled artists names are apart of the featured artists.
Yeah I saw the video. The samples are pretty random too but edited pretty good

@styl1st idk maybe I'm biased cause me and a couple of my homies produce it a lot, but you're prob right it is slipping back underground
@@MVS0N_ one can only hope
Ableton being the TE of daws, it's twice as much as bitwig. Price point is a major factor when talking about TE.
i don't think not using samples means you make bad music at all but i have not heard a single person brag about not using samples that makes good beats. idk it's like that attitude just breeds shitty music lmao
Zaytoven is the perfect example. Amazing keyboardist and producer, I've never seen him sample but he never brags about it or even mentions it
