Yes! Stress the M1 pro chip. I have to admit, with bitwig, I'm finding the damn os puts most of the threads on the efficiency cores instead of the performance cores. Eventually, it's figures things out, but I want to find a way to tell the os to use the performance cores from the get-go. Any ideas? Maybe I just have to tell bitwig developers to use the APIs to do it.
@@SolStateMusic What I'm curious about is how do you GET to the point where you can make money as a producer, where you can only focus on making music? Right now I'm doing a full time job and side hustles to supplement, and ANY free time is spent producing. I haven't made a cent from music production yet and I reach out to artists and producers daily, any advice?
Listening to Guy talk about production and break things down always serves as a reminder that I'm not doing enough to make my stuff interesting. It's both inspiring and daunting. Edit: Now I know it's guy
"Making music is my job mate, so I only have time for this".... and on that note, I subscribed. I do love music that is properly crafted, even if it takes ages to do. It feels so much more dynamic.
In ableton you can use an lfo to modulate note duration, pitch, etc. You may be able to do something similar in other DAWs Here's an "old" video showing a few aplications of that technique: ua-cam.com/video/0XYa71bDL2o/v-deo.html Edit: this might be better (for ableton users) since the other one uses drum synth and not drum rack/sampler ua-cam.com/video/1_p2kSfk5eo/v-deo.html
Oh noes a spoiled millennial might need to spend half an hour on a drum sound sob! You are surely as oppressed as your great grandparents who worked 60 hours a week in a coal mine. Someon MUST be canceled for this horrendous injustice.
Im producing for fun since ten years (still countless hours invested) and watching these videos hype me big times as there is sooooo much more to learn and discover!
Much love for the peek behind the curtain! I have most of those plugin toys and hadn't thought of using them in the same ways - very impressive. And great music! I peeped the Soundcloud page, and you made a new fan tonight! Mission: Accomplished!
Did you know there's almost 12,000 producers in Disclosure's Discord? discord.com/invite/disclosure Track ID: Never Enough by Disclosure - ua-cam.com/video/G_r6hRV054U/v-deo.html
possibly a controversial opinion, but Disclosure's best stuff was made when Guy knew less about production and was just keeping it simple. The more complicated it gets with all these details and technical shit its just not as enjoyable to listen to. Maybe it's just the song writing on Settle was miles ahead of anything they've done since, not so much the production was simpler
I think it's even more fun to think about it more like, what makes analog sounds sound like they do? Why do people like this? What other ways are there to add these characteristics? Subtle variation in pitch, noise and added overtones(sometimes both odd and even) can be done in a lot of different ways! Some of my favorite are adding noise with Ableton's erosion, or any ring mod plugin where you can use noise as a mod source, adding overtones with phase distortion and sine-folding(biased differently in stereo can be cool!) And Pitch drift via frequency shifter!
Most people wouldnt be conscious of all of this but I reckon it tickles em on a subconscious level be interesting to have a study of these subtle changes vs no subtle changes and see if people’s enjoyments the same by way of brain scans . Sorry went all Freudian there !! 😂
I think you.wouldnt have to do that. People would just experience it as sounding better or worse. Better if the little details have reason..and add up to make something better. The devil's in the detail for a reason
that thing about the transient in soft synths makes a huge difference making dub stabs with really short decays. glad someone else noticed and im not going insane
Well, the transient is the first (and loudest) part of the pluck bass. The pluck bass, i believe, has a lowpass filter on it (taking away higher frequencies). The thing is, he probably wants the bass to have more presence in the song (keep in mind i didnt watch until this part i just skipped to your timestamp). On devices like phones you cant hear lower frequencies, making the bass almost inaudible UNLESS you bring up the higher frequencies like how this guy did in the video (he brought up higher harmonics, that is, harmonic notes that make up the timbre of the bass, to make the bass more audible in higher frequencies) Sry for the paragraph lmao
These vids are absolutely class, always looking to learn new things and this definately made me reaslise i need to up my automation game, great to watch thank you for sharing / taking time. I got alot from this video. ❤
Love your channel. All these video edits are super inspiring. Learning a hell of a lot!! Thank you to all the producers and you guys for the great edits!!
I need 909 kit sounds so bad l, I have no idea why logic doesn’t have one stock. Literally every TR variant could be ready to go on logic but instead something else I’ll never use got prioritized
Though Im more a "keys"player (never mouse input , but play Guitar & Bass , and master of none), and I prefer the "happy mistakes" when writing music.. or songs.. or Tracks ... Or Beats.. Whatever makes it what you want, Ive only today come upon your channel , and find it different to the many the other "Music is Production" channels.. We all have a passion.. But what I like is your not selling., just sharing... Respect, sharing your genre.
You have to change every kick minimally, in terms of volume, length and tuning (micro range/minimal nuance) actually even the pressure if this is possible with the DAW. And that with every sound of the Tr 909. When I record my Rd9, each kick is slightly different (logically, since it is an electronic impulse in an analogue system), this is already visible on every waveform. And I also mean every one, no matter if you have sampled 100 pieces. Greetings from Germany
you don't have to actually do that. I don't know why ppl don't record audio samples and midi variation and automation live w your actual hands and fingers, or use a technology to just generate it w logical or random algorithms. not really that painstaking really if you find process interesting and fun.
You do know that the open and closed hat on a 909 are also samples? They sound the same every time. It's just the timing of the 909 that's adds a unique swing to the hats.
sigh... that's the whole point of what he's saying dummy, it's not "played" because it's samples that are triggered, so you automate them to sound natural

everytime i watch guys videos i realise i don't use enough automations
" How do you have time for this? "
Besides doing it for work, if you're serious about your music, you make the time.

This is really great. It shows how much more you get if you put in the time. Thank you!
Always coming in with the Disclosure recaps. Great stuff, thanks Sol State!
Ear candy is so important. People need to discover new stuff when they relisten!

that thing about the transient in soft synths makes a huge difference making dub stabs with really short decays. glad someone else noticed and im not going insane
he like always has something interesting to teach, a real pro
Can someone explain what he's doing at 7:54? He's boosting the transient click of the Juno to make it pop more on the start of the note?
Well, the transient is the first (and loudest) part of the pluck bass. The pluck bass, i believe, has a lowpass filter on it (taking away higher frequencies). The thing is, he probably wants the bass to have more presence in the song (keep in mind i didnt watch until this part i just skipped to your timestamp).

@@baiatu_teh_boss5613 😁👍
Yes, he's increasing the transient/pop at the very start of the note (in that 1k area).
Can’t wait for my M1 max to arrive!!!
Did some one really ask how he has time to do that with the 909s? 🤣
What song is this?
I can hear the burial inspiration in your tunes
These vids are absolutely class, always looking to learn new things and this definately made me reaslise i need to up my automation game, great to watch thank you for sharing / taking time. I got alot from this video. ❤
If I ever spent this long on a single sound in a track I think I would permanently burn my self out of music permanently for the rest of my life lmao

And I thought only I was getting the system overload message 🤦 Haha thanks for this tho!
Hey, Sol! I make music like that, too. Glad to know I'm not alone! Hahaha keep it real!
This dude is crazy skilled/talented
That's definitely a lot of cool tips.
What kind of computer you got? If I run more than 8 channels mines gone explode! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Amazing share! Thank you. Talk about Couturè automation 💪🤙
He should be using automation,,, volume, duration etc..... a lot faster
Has so much automation he’s getting system overloads on the NEW MacBook Pro - wild
it’s a 2019 intel mac not m1
New M1 Pro is way more powerful than the 2019 MacBook.
I need 909 kit sounds so bad l, I have no idea why logic doesn’t have one stock. Literally every TR variant could be ready to go on logic but instead something else I’ll never use got prioritized
logic is the prettiest daw by a wide margin
it really is
I use cubase personally and logic for school, and I have to agree, it looks so much better than anything else
FL too
Until system overload ;)
@@triyambakam5807 Lol So, we’re just naming off random saws?
variation is interesting in rhythmic patterns?? no way!!

Fucking love automation.
Automating the reverb around on the claps was 200iq
All my Logic users know that dreaded "System Overload" notification
ring modulation is amplitude modulation not frequency modulation
love watching your vids , but my god makes me realise how much i have to learn bit disheartening at times
name of the track?

It's Never Enough by Disclosure
I think what he’s doing is 2, maybe 3 separate musical things, all at the same time
Your computer was trying to tell you "it's too much" but it was wrong.
