you gotta be kidding me! this is one of the most valueable beatmaking-related pieces of content out there...you could be charging 100s of bucks for this but you're putting it out for free...this shows what a great human being you are, dude! you're incredible, mate!!! thanks!!!
Thank you for that video! Drum Patterns have always been very hard for me for some reason. Today I took the time and recreated every pattern you showed in this vid and made my own presets. This was so helpful, so thank you very much!
Has anyone ever called you the Bob Villa of production youtube channels? You're vibe is literally a lofi ambient track. Super relaxing to listen too and watch. Keep it up!
Man, your video is like a saint book for making beat in lofi music, so instructive and to the point, and no water about how is the weather outside, socks you chose for today or which coffee you're advertising... thank you a lot 🙏💛💙
Will this has to be my favourite video from you thus far! That gate side chain foley trick is awesome. I would love to see more videos focused on drums and percussion
This is so helpful. I make music as soundtrack beds for UA-cam videos. I usually make a tune in an hour or two and don't have much more time than that usually, so having a template like this to work with really clarifies things for someone like me who didn't grow up with beats, and now needs to make them. Liked and subscribed. Thanks!
Always love your videos, mate! This one is extra special - thanks for breaking down the polyrhythms. I had no idea you were a session drummer - makes total sense now 🤪 Is the template used during the video available at your Patreon?
Thank youuuuu Brian! The template is available at the Patreon for Live 11 and the MIDI patterns are downloadable for previous versions of Live or other DAWs
Awesome stuff for a guy who LOVES lofi but cannot seem to hit the 'sound' with his own productions. You know this, I've been trying for like 8 months or so.. ;) As usual, very useful high quality video. Spanx a lot man, you rock! :D
What a cracking vid.👍 Some real gold there. You mentioned about another vid and I'd really like to see more on the techniques like the hi/lo shaker fade, the vinyl sidechain, etc. Also, the thoughts behind the techniques, like the transient where everything should be super short, pitched up, etc. Superb vid, with the sort of info you don't often find. 👍👏
A fi, thank you so much for your kind words, just the sort of motivation I needed today! Yes, do check out my "Groove Theory" video, it'll give you some more insight on creating a bounce with perc (It's not Lo-Fi but its beneficial) I have a "Subtractive synthesis" video if you like your REALLY content geeky (I know i do!) And if you're into your Lo-Fi stuff, then just filter my videos by playlist! Thanks for being here friend.
but un the 4th bar there is a little change lol...it took me some while understand why it was not working [now we see who really is remaking it lol] thank a lot...a lot !
I just went through this exercise again creating 10 different templates so that I can jump in and get a tune down quickly, still some of my own beats feel a bit static as I forget a few simple things and this is a great refresher, nice! ;D
@@WillHatton Morning buddy! Just wondered, I see prods mostly using audio clips for the drums rather than drum rack, it seems, can you make LFO effects on a drum track made of audio clips? Is it generally better to use audio clips rather than the MIDI drum sequences where possible or just preference? Just thinking aloud, thanks! Have a fun weekend! ;D
@@nicolasnicolas3889 Totally preference bud! I tend to use audio more often as I like to SEE the waveform but it really doesn't matter. You can achieve the same effect with both!
The MIDI patterns are also at the Patreon to download alone which should work for any DAW. If not, I’m sure it won’t take you very long to just replicate the shapes from the time stamps! Happy to help!
@@WillHatton thanks so much, I will sign up to the Patreon for sure! Iv just started using xln xo,going to spend the afternoon creating some presets using theses patterns to improve my workflow , thanks again, keep the great music and content coming :)
excellent video, thanks so much! i was wondering though, and i know this is probably just a lofi stylistic thing, but it just seems that the drums hits, especially the hats seem much more off grid than an actual drummer would play them, feels really unsteady to my ear. of the drummers i have played with, i do not recall any of them playing their hat that far off grid, some like to even play with a metronome in their ear at gigs. when you are playing for hire, i am assuming your timing is more precise, no? maybe i am crazy lol --- great videos though, i will be using the patterns although my hats will be closer to grid. lol
Hello Will! This is brilliant mate, thank you very much. Could you please tell me what key sound you are using in "Almost 3" ? Maybe a tutorial on how to get that beautiful sound Cheers
This is about the 6th video I’ve watched on Lori drum beats and honestly I don’t understand any of it. Does any one know a video where they explain language a beginner would get?
@@WillHatton I agree, but I think it's worth putting out a few polls to see who has FabFilter or other mainstream popular plugins. You might be surprised.
For this example, yes! You can export the MIDI to use with LPX, you can access this at any tier. Just search the tag "templates" to find this video and the attached midi!
It doesn't unfortunately BUT I did make the MIDI available so you can apply the patterns to any DAW. Should be as simple as dragging and dropping to your assigned instrument, you may just have to adjust what key your kick or snare sample performs on.

Thank you so much! I really appreciate the support! Just trying my best
Dude, you just gave away a million plays to other producers basically for free. You are beyond nice. 👏🏾
Ha! I hope that’s true, share the wealth and all that! Appreciate you

I’m so happy to read this! I’m glad you cracked it! Enjoy and reach out anytime!!!
One of the best things about this genre of music is the level of technological creativity!! Cheers, Will! Beautiful content!
Thanks for stopping by!

Thanks so much! You’re the first!
Appreciate you bro! I like em all! I had trouble with The Sweeper and The Shaker.

My pleasure, glad it’s helpful! Thanks for the kind words
I appreciate you for this! Currently making templates for FL studio

@@WillHatton Thanks buddy! Of course you can see the wave, I hadn't thought of that, duh! ;D
Thanks for this Will, really handy to see, gutted I don’t use ableton but will be using some of these patterns for sure

cheers Will, would love another wee UKG groove guide if you're up for it/ have more grooves
I’ll add it to the list!
very dope video Will, I’ll have to become a Patreon cos I need this template
Welcome aboard captain happy to help!
I appreciate this!
amazing :) thanks dude

Amazing just what I needed thank you
Ay this is dope. thank you
My pleasure!
So helpful! Thanks.
Holy shit you rock !
Facts !
Hello Will! This is brilliant mate, thank you very much.
Could you please tell me what key sound you are using in "Almost 3" ?
Maybe a tutorial on how to get that beautiful sound
Cheers
It’s a sample buddy! But it’s just a pitch warped Rhodes sound!
@@WillHatton Thank you mate!
This is seek thank you
This is about the 6th video I’ve watched on Lori drum beats and honestly I don’t understand any of it. Does any one know a video where they explain language a beginner would get?
Hi, can not find "TEN Must Know Lo-Fi Grooves & How to Make Them [+ Template DL]" on your Patreon page??
They’re certainly there. DM on Patreon and I’ll link it to you.
seems to me to be some bass audio frequency confliction in your video.
Your videos is gem 💎💎
Appreciate that, thanks!
What key command did you use to duplicate the hi hats at 7:29
CMD + D
Hello how do you use the templates I’m soo new to using ableton. Also this video is amazing thank you for your knowledge
Hey there! Thanks!
You just download it from the Patreon and insert your own samples to the corresponding titles!
@@WillHatton thank you very much I’ll mess with it now
Mura masa fire
Do you make videos or templates using third party plugins and synths? E.g. FabFilter template, UAD (If you have), Acustica Audio, or U-he synths etc.
Not often but I’m not adverse to it either! Just trying to make content that will benefit most users and not exclude anyone!
@@WillHatton I agree, but I think it's worth putting out a few polls to see who has FabFilter or other mainstream popular plugins. You might be surprised.
Can these grooves be imported into LPX...? If so, which Patreon Tier are they accessible...? Thx, Will
For this example, yes! You can export the MIDI to use with LPX, you can access this at any tier. Just search the tag "templates" to find this video and the attached midi!
🔥
Hush. Does the template apply to guys who dont use Ableton?
It doesn't unfortunately BUT I did make the MIDI available so you can apply the patterns to any DAW.
Should be as simple as dragging and dropping to your assigned instrument, you may just have to adjust what key your kick or snare sample performs on.
If you don't mind me asking, how do I get the drums that were used in this video? They're great🔥 Also, how do I download the template?
Both are available at the Patreon upon any tier!
y no enseñaste como se hace el the swinger
For some reason there’s no option available to save this vid to a playlist.
I just added it to a playlist.
What DAW.is your template for? Can you export the grooves at GM midi?
Where is a good place to get a hat stomp?
Splice, freesound, loopcloud, bandlab
what plan i need on patreon to download this template?
Any!
What is lo-fi?
p͎r͎o͎m͎o͎s͎m͎ ?
you talk too much....
You comment too often…
