If you ever get the time I’d love to see a full in depth video on your drums it’s so hard to get good sounding drums and yours sound so massive and heavy!
There are many ways to get that. A ready made sound from GGD works, or just individual samples, or EZdrummer or whatever. You need parallel compression, a roomy snare and a short, but powerful kick. You can even add noise and an electronic kick to the kick for that.
Dude this type of content is golden!! People love what you create (including myself) and having videos like this that encourage the creation of music and showing how you do it is fantastic! Thank you bro!
@@JakeAdkinsMusic Absolutely! I’m not familiar with a lot of this lol, I have Logic Pro x and use a Kemper and or focusrite scarlet when Kemper is in the rack so haven’t ever tried programming parts (other than drums) but I’d like to give it a go 🤘🏼
Thank you so much for this! Been watching the 2 other kind of videos you have out like this for ages trying to figure it out having commentary is really helpful!!
This is great! I always wondered on your process since your beats all have a great sound. ID personally love to see more indepth on your plugins and mixing/leveling ect. Keep em comin!
Was thinking if you use VST guitar and really love that you use Odin, not only VST makes instrumental production way much more fun and easier but it also fits to the modern metal production so well because of it's precise sound, considering that so many bands mix the guitar sound eith synths nowadays it makes total sense, awesome video Jake, you're doing a great job!
Can do another tutorial video but the style of Thy Art Is Murder and Lorna Shore? Would really like to get that killer Deathcore sound with DAW produced instrumentals!
Jake, is there any way to get in touch with you? I have a band and our debut album is almost finished but a few songs and the vocals. Ofc I'll pay you but I'd love to work with you to make some insane new music.
Hey Jake, great work! Please make more videos like this. I really love your production workflow. Maybe consider making a separate video about how and why you work with Studio One. I'd be interested in that! Best regards! :)
Hey man I appreciated your tutorial - helped a lot as someone new to writing in the genre, and also as an S1 user! I like how you put together your template, seems very efficient. Have things changed much for you in 2024? Workflow or workhorse plugin/libraries?
Nothing's changed for me! The guitar sampler I use (Odin 2 by Solemn Tones) has a newer version out called Odin 3. I would recommend avoiding Odin 3 like the plague though. It's very disappointing and has lots of issues that don't seem to be being addressed by the company. I 100% regret wasting my money on Odin 3.
@JakeAdkinsMusic thanks and appreciate the flag about Odin 3. I've been using shreddage hydra and am looking for an alternative...ideally something a bit easier to write quickly (although i have sound variations set up and that definitely helps!)
Haven't tried the others. Bought Solemn Tones way back when it first came out and it just works so well I've never felt the need to use anything else. No other reason!
@@JakeAdkinsMusic well whatever works with you bro. music is all about whatever works with you and whats comfortable to use. thank you for your input. ive been using the hydra 8 for about 2 years. honestly its really complex and advanced for me. (still learning it) 😂
Hey @jakeadkinsmusic I just bought "tainted" and wanted to add some heavy guitars to the verses. Can you tell me what guitar settings you used in Odin for the rhythm guitars so I can match it up correctly? Thanks!

Yes, commentary takes a little bit more time but I have a set up now that works pretty well. More videos coming soon.
Seriously one of the best producers / writers i've came across
Thank you so much bro!

More to come!
thanks so much for that video really learned a lot. I would love to see a video about your template and what vsts you use

Midi is an amazing tool and we've only just seen the start of midi guitars I think! Lots of room for innovation still!
Thanks for this amazing tutorial, it's just what I was looking for.
You're welcome!
Nice work,thank you so much for your tutorial! Jake please make video about how make compose guitar riff and write metalcore beats.🔥🔥🔥🔥
I can for sure make a video talking about how to make good guitar riffs.
@@JakeAdkinsMusic Thank you very much.👍👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏
Please do more of this
what kinds of videos would you like to see?
Can do another tutorial video but the style of Thy Art Is Murder and Lorna Shore? Would really like to get that killer Deathcore sound with DAW produced instrumentals!
Love this 🤩
Jake, you should make a sample pack for your drums. People would buy the shit outta that. I'm decent at production but drums always kill me.
Jake, is there any way to get in touch with you? I have a band and our debut album is almost finished but a few songs and the vocals. Ofc I'll pay you but I'd love to work with you to make some insane new music.

Can definitely make this happen.
Helped me a lot dude, nice tutorial
Glad to hear it!
Fire tutorial! I learned a lot!
Great video, I definitely learned alot from this thanks you!
Awesome! Happy to hear it. 🔥🔥
Hey, dude, thanks for this it's too fucking good, you process the guitar with an external amplifier or with those that come by default in the plugin?

How can you make to sound so clear?! 11:36
Why did you go with solemn tones vs like Cabal 8 or shreddage hydra 8 string vst?
Haven't tried the others. Bought Solemn Tones way back when it first came out and it just works so well I've never felt the need to use anything else. No other reason!
@@JakeAdkinsMusic well whatever works with you bro. music is all about whatever works with you and whats comfortable to use. thank you for your input. ive been using the hydra 8 for about 2 years. honestly its really complex and advanced for me. (still learning it) 😂
An amazing job! Will you upload this song?
I think I will work on it a little bit more first, but yes eventually I will upload it!
@@JakeAdkinsMusicI look forward to hearing it 🤗
hi jake what recording software did you used?
Hey @jakeadkinsmusic I just bought "tainted" and wanted to add some heavy guitars to the verses. Can you tell me what guitar settings you used in Odin for the rhythm guitars so I can match it up correctly? Thanks!
It’s your lucky day I literally just recorded a video on this. Will be up in the next couple days.
💯🙌
Calling them beats feels like sacrilege lmfao
