thats my favorite part
Fantastic video! Your track creation is so fluid, natural, and seamless!
Glad you enjoyed it
Songs from scratch are the BEST! Thanks Forest!!
Mike! Glad you are here dude!
Another modern country song from scratch in logic! That was very helpful.
Great stuff Forest! Love the insider tips and the banner that flies in explaining the advantages of a songwriter learning production! I would love to hear about how you approach remote co-writing via ZOOM, and especially how you get the clear sound from your DAW out to the stream. Thanks for all you are doing- I can't tell you how helpful it is!
Thats always a struggle with live streaming. have you heard of session wire? www.sessionwire.com/ I hear its the best at what you are talking about.
I have watched hundreds of audio production videos on you tube. This is the kind of stuff that inspires me. I would love to see more videos like this. Also using the arrangement markers to arrange the final structure.
You make it look so effortless. You my friend have a very special gift. Thanks for the great content, keep up the great work.
Thank you for your comment, more videos coming soon!
Thank you Forest this is awesome!

Amazing!!!

Wonderful. Need more like this
Man, Forest… I’ve just gotta say it’s been such a blessing to find this content. I actually watched your session with Clay and Marty on SongTown way back in 2016 or so and it gave me a taste of what I could do… but I spent a lot of time learning the tool, but didn’t understand there was a “workflow” and general process missing once I was family with the software and key aspects of it all... so, I’m familiar with Logic and working in a DAW in general, but what I’ve been missing an example of how a pro approaches the process. Anyway, thanks man… I’ve been writing a while and I’ve got plenty of songs I’d like to demo here at home and I think this gives me a lot of the tools I need.
One request would be that you show how you take something like an acoustic worktape and build a track for it… if that’s a thing you do I guess.
Man these are sooo great
Never stop❤️
💚💜💚
Sick!! First time coming across your channel, love it! New subscriber!
Glad you are here!
First time listener. Thanks for sharing!!! Great content! I hear "The highway won't hold you tonight
The highway don't know you're alive
The highway don't care if you're all alone, but I do, I do.
The highway won't dry your tears
The highway don't need you here ..."
Awesome breakdown Forest! I would love to see more of these!
MOre to come!
Great inspiration! I would appreciated more of this kind of videos. Thanks Forrest.
MOre on the way!

I've only watched your videos twice but both 2 times it made me go make some music afterwards
Love that
i have been searching this for a year, Finally i got it. dope song.
Awesome video! I totally agree that knowing the direction of the track before you start is exactly the way to turbocharge your workflow.
Awesome, Thank You Forest. Greetings from Argentina
One of my favorites so far. Thank you!!
Your contents are pure motivation to me. Please keep them coming.
I'd say just keep doing what you're doing. I always find a new useful production tip from each of your videos. Thank you!
More coming! Thanks for being here.

Wow! Inspiring! Love your channel. Best regards from Germany

Thanks for doing this man! Would love to see more pop country production in logic! You make it look easy!
I got something cool cooking up for you
@@forestwhitehead my man! Thank you!
Show me your ways and one day we can collab! Would love to write next time I’m in Nash!
So good man!! Thank you for such a great heart behind building up the next gen of music production! so so good!
Just found this channel. Amazing content, Forest! Definitely a new subscriber and fan.
Thank you for being here!
Sounds great. About to start working on a country album w our guitarist on vox. For funzies. lol
Won’t be under the Jager Volant band name obviously. Thanks for the video.
I've a beginner musician, and I've always struggled with coming up with vocal melody ideas, could you possibly do a tutorial on that, as a beginner we somehow get the idea of making beats but I struggle making catchy vocal melodies
Keep updating sir....we are starting to follow you
🚀🚀🚀🚀
Great content man..please keep it up!
Yoo!
Its fireee🔥
Hey Forest, I'd really like to see how you would produce a Non-Country song. In a different Genre like Pop, Rock, Rnb, Soul, Euro Pop, 80's Pop. I really like how simple your production is for the Vocalist to sing over. Cheers!
Love your stuff! Maybe you could do a basic explanation video for beginners on how to use plug ins or samples. Also if you're starting on a budget what are some of your must haves?
Honestly, I did Charlie puth and Ryan monthly training. They are great but yours is much more better under an hours. Much appreciated.
Amazing brother
So good🤧
Exelente job🎉
thanks for this. Id like to be able to create my favorite genres with just midi. I need to get a better set up for recording instruments.
that sounds reall cool
Is that a Peluso 251? Would be awesome if you shared the mic chain you use for acoustic and vocals? Sounds like a 251 through ??pre?? into your LA2A. Great work Forest. Thanks.
Great guess. It’s the peluso p12 going into the neve pre into purple audio mc77 into Logic
@@forestwhitehead awesome thanks for sharing. cannot go wrong with that signal path.
great video man thank you
Hi, Forest, sometimes I struggle on making sure the length of the ore-chorus is correct, also on making sure my song structure makes sense. Could you do a video on what main 5 or 3 song structures you use the most or recommend beginners to start with? 🙏🙏 thank you again, you rock!
This is a great idea. I will for sure. Thank you for your comment.
this is actually really good...
Big like 👍
Cool.... 🤠
Wow what a cool track. I'd like to get a resonator but right now dont have the cash. They can be very expensive but Thomann have then from about 250 euro (and they all the way up to thousands). I'll get the basic one. It should suit my needs.
Great Video.
Have you made a Video for traditional country?
Like the George Straight, Alan Jackson styles.
Yeeeeehawwwww
Forest I absolutely love what you created ❤ I have allready written lyrics to it. If u want to hear, let me know :)
Lori
I can hear Morgan wallen and Jimmie Allen on this!!
Fantastic!!
I actually have a request. Record, mix/produce Live drums. Does and don’ts. I struggle a lot with that. Would be great to get some tips from you.
Mad tasty FW!
Thanks man, when we doing a video?
Superb
Great work… could you do a video of your initial mic setups in logic, from start to finish? I.e compressors, EQ, ….
Great video. For multiple guitars would it be a good workflow to bus them to a guitar bus instead of having effects for each guitar?
What a video! Thanks so much! Craze how the mix between 808's and acoustic drums brings the mix to life. I will definitely be using your tips here for the song I'm currently working on. How do you feel about overdrive electrics on a modern country pop song? Any advice?
Be Great content! I know you use both autotune and Melodyne from previous videos but, Could you do a tutorial on autotune pro graph mode?
Thanks for all the awesome videos!
I'll look into that for sure. I do primarily use melodyne for tuning vocals.
Always fun to watch you at work. But what happened to your Studio One? Why have you reverted to Logic?
I work in both.. I have a very special video coming out soon on rebuilding a track happening in Studio One 5! I actually prefer studio one 5 but I have many production students who use Logic so I float back and forth.
@@forestwhitehead Thanks! I'll certainly watch for that one.
Now all it needs is a Keith Urban Solo in vocal
Love the video man...Great content. Question for ya. What Mic is that you're using on the GTR and Generally what Mics do you use on vocals?
Peluso P12!
What kind of microphone did you use to record the
guitar? love your channel!
I have a question. First off, I love the videos and you. Super helpful and motivating. So I can get a beat down and lay some piano chords or guitar chords in, but how do I know how to fit it to my vocal range? This concept isn’t clicking for me. Thx!
Well this is really different for each person. I have a higher tenor voice so my songs I write are usually anywhere from G, A, C root chords. Alot of female songs I do are in D. You have try out a few and see what sits bests in your range. I wish I could tell you no question what key would work for you But I dont know cause I havent heard you sing.
@@forestwhitehead thanks for the reply! It’s probably just my vague understanding of music theory. I’m trying to find a way to figure out how to make songs I can sing to with minimal theory knowledge. Thanks again Forest. How much you charge for a session?? Haha jk. Maybe
Just discovered this video and appreciate the content! What is the brand of Resonator guitar you are using? With the electric strings has a nice hybrid sound going. Thanks!
Hey Forest, I just stumbled across this video and was really impressed by you recordings I was wondering if you could help me out. 'm a 61 year old retired navy vet that is trying to set up my own home studio. I was in a country band many years ago while I was in the Navy. I have all of my instrument but need advice on a Midi controller Keyboard and other equipment I may need to get started I'm looking at the Arturia MKii 61. I do write lyrics and have a really good ear, but am a little behind on the electronics, I'm looking for mid-level equipment.. Just to give you an idea, I do vocals in an empty closet lol. Anyway, any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. P.S. I do have my daughter-in-law who is in the industry living in Nashville... hint hint. excellent vocals .
This is awesome did u place it or you forgot about I would love to put a record to it
Hey Forest... what kind/size strings are on your reso? Looks & sounds like electric strings? Sounds great.
Man, I gotta say you got a good ear to pick that out. I accidentally put elixir electric 12s on there and surprisingly was very happy with it. They are easy to bend and get a good twang.
I like it...I'm new here❤
Forest! Another killer video man. Sent you an email about potentially meeting up sometime soon. Would love to pick your brain and start making some friends in the industry now that I'm in Nash. Lemme know!
forward your email.. forest@musiccityplaybook.com
Which Snare drum do you take ? It Sounds awesome
