After watching a million tutorials and such, finally found a guy that explains and shows with detail and patience, excellent...kudos.
Just in case you were wondering what commands I use in Pro Tools while i'm editing. 😊
A - Trim previous border of clip to marker
S - Trim next border of clip to marker
X - Cut selection(good for quick and easy delete if you're not copy/pasting anything)
C/V - Copy/paste
Z - Undo
Control+E - Cut clip at marker
F - Create fade
Control+F - Batch fade options
Control+G - Group tracks(Good for editing two tracks together)
Control+Shift+G - Engage/Disengage groups(For when you need to edit the individual grouped tracks)
Windows Key+"+/-"(num pad) - Slip edit forward/back
+/-(num pad) - nudge clip forward/back
Control+Windows+Left/Right key - Cycle through track view modes(waveform/warp/playlist/etc.)
Elastic Audio:
Windows+click - set anchor
You'd normally pay money for something this informative and intuitive!
Great video man, I use these to pump myself up for tracking lol
19:13 I felt that... thank you Steven, this video was pretty on point for me.
I have been doing this for 4 years now and its the sexiest man. When you hear the progress its amazing. You feel the need for better gear Quickly though.
Wow, funny how your honest vids cross my path right now where they‘re just in time. Love it. Kind of synchronicity right?! Thanx for sharing Steven. P.s. Do you have any suggestions for this particular topic regarding cubase? Thanx again. ✌🏼
Such an important topic, the tip to align the transients to the grid is very useful, gonna use that! Thank you Steven :)
cool video. it does seem like it'd be easier to practice more. but i totally understand why a video like this is necessary. also, i think this is the first video ive seen like this where the takes weren't already perfect. lol.
19:00 mark... you could use the TCE, or, you could rerecord the guitar part and get it right the first time. Just sayin. And for the record, I love this video. Great stuff!
That second riff is really killer
Wish this had focused more on the recording process itself, rather than editing the tracked DI. What was the signal chain here? For example: Did you use a dedicated D.I. box? Or use a High Z input on your interface? Thanks!
Helpful, thank you for the video
Excellent video. Very informative.
When you're doubling guitars, are you using the same settings for all the takes, or are you subtly moving some knobs or changing settings entirely?
I personally use different settings so it’ll sound like 2 different guitarists with different amps/etc.
For a second I thought it's a
toilet paper ... but then it came to me: "no way, it's too thin!" 🤣🤣🤣
Great video, I use similar technic 😊 and I love/hate it! 😂
Hey Steven! great video, you are so easy to watch and learn from!! but you made a note in the video that if you didn't speed it up the video would be an hour long... Honestly even if you just went quite I would totally watch an hour of you editing!
Pretty dam good man
This song is a banger. Can I listen to it anywhere?
I just rec 2 bars at a time. Also it's a way to write. Then double or quad. In the same fashion.
Pretty curious how you’d approach editing similar to this with a faster paced chord strumming part like any typical chorus in a song. Any thoughts?
Steven, thank you for your videos, I appreciate them. I do have a question though. I think I've seen you adjust the eq on a plug-in that you have on separate tracks at the same time. It wasn't on a bus, but different tracks. Is that correct? If so, how did you do it. I am using Pro Tools too, along with the Nameless plug-in.
Hey this was awesome! Exactly what I was looking for! I had a question though, what exactly is the cross fading accomplishing? You didn't really go into that and it is something I have not done before.
Whenever you have an abrupt start or end on your audio boundaries, you get a little click sound. This is fixed by a very short fade in or fade out. When you’re stitching audio clips together, you also want them to overlap a little bit (i.e. cross fade), otherwise it will sound like a gap.
Amazing tricks mate! Did you use a specific preset of Nolly´s Archetype? Sounds really great.
Just a tip: never use a jizz rag to mute strings.
lol.....A sock??? lol....good one
Is it normal to have your DIs clip ? Not trolling at all, I'm genuinely interested.
mvyper No! Make sure you have at least 18db headroom for your DI. If it’s already clipping at that point nothing will sound good.
@@XiyuYang yes, I know. I mean, I was curious because his tracks are clipping almost on every transient...
That's the view in pro tools. You can make the waveform larger or smaller depending on preference so that's why it looks like its clipping.
@@TheRealStevenWard okay didn't know it!
No worries, my friend. I'm always down to answer any questions so I'm glad you asked so I could clear that up. 😁😁
Editing is absolutely painful, time consuming, repetitive but necessary. Done right the song would sound noticeably better. Another point I want to mention is, tune to the part, not the pitch.
Yes! That's how I started in audio. Just picked up any and all editing jobs that I could find to learn as much as I could.
Which program are you using to record and edit your music ? I bought a 2i2 and can't use the program on my iMac for some reason.
Damn I had no idea people were doing stuff like this for the best recordings... rip me.
Yeah......the live band vibe of 90's metal passed away.....welcome to the grid
@@emilianosg8385 it's ridiculous that this is today's standards... instead of recording 5 takes and then chopping them up and attempting to create one flawless track, how about just fucking practicing a little?
@@nomnom112 dude no one is setting the standard of "don't practice, just edit the shit out of it"
Guess what? You CAN practice and be an amazing musician who plays this track almost flawlessly. And then the edits are way more minimalist. But he's showing average musicians how to make a song they're proud of, hence the average takes.
Get off your high horse
@@nomnom112 they should just give up am I right? 🤓 Jesus Christ what are they doing 😂
Kinda wondering why a lot of his guitar and drum tracks showed clipping and it seems like he just used a pluggin to lower the levels so they sit at -10dB / -18dB. This is something Im battling with on my own recordings.
There is a dedicated trim plugin in pro tools. I bet that's what he is using
So the secret is to just quantise the hell out of it loooool
It's funny.. I clicked on this video for the specific reason of what gets sped through with the time lapse 15 minutes in. Oh well .. can't please everyone I guess. 😂 Nice sounding track though.
When are we getting Midi in standalone 😭
THATS WHY METAL IS NO MORE METAL.
wait neural dsp is a person??
Gain staging from the outset, before all this
I think metal these days is too much processed and its more about the engineer doing most of the job and not the band.. at the end of the day I cant hear the difference between 2015+ bands
It's "Techno Metal".......
It depends what 'metal these days' you're listening to I guess.
wait...the Paper Towel thing is a joke right?
The thumbnail of this video looks like the inside of a fleshlight
Just learn to play better. This is sampling. A great skill. But not guitar playing.
How to lose all your feel in just under 25 minutes... Isn't it bad enough that the drums are snapped to the grid?
2und2sind4 This is meant to show basic editing.
@@northtimo666 but why would you even want to do this? He says that using programmed drums make this excessive amount of editing necessary. I'd argue that this argumentation is completely backwards.
Djent is so lame....the only Djent i can listen to is one song only and it's "Bleed"....tha's it
@@2und2sind4 because some people want it this way? It's music. There are no rules
Not everyone can afford Pro tools
