00:00:00 - Intro 00:01:54 - basic sampling with no warp 00:06:48 - with warp 00:07:45 - turn a sampler into an oscillator 00:11:35 - pretty synth 00:13:54 - little jam
Even as someone who mostly has a pretty different taste in music (Big exceptions here and there, and I always enjoy listening), I LOVE his videos. UA-cam is just such a crazy resource, all sorts of perspectives, and people like VR make that dream happen. I can only imagine what it'd be like if my favorite artist shared this much.
Hey man, you probably won’t read this, but thanks for giving the guy in the bedroom some relatable knowledge. You’re a genius man, thanks for helping me out.
after all these crazy resonator- and mudpie videos this was a nice reminder that you're just a human being with sometimes normal desires, like throwing a simple sound into a sampler. i could literally recommend this video to a beginner and it wouldn't be too confusing
I don’t even make music but I absolutely love watching your videos and seeing how you make your awesome music! So excited to see the new body of work!!
I Have a handful of romplers and its genuinely incredible how the engineers back in the day achieved what they did. It gives you a love for samplers and what you can do with them, like faking many FX with just clever adsr and smart loop points.
My brain is about to melt from information overload! These tutorials have been amazing even when I’m not an Abelton user. Thank you very much and much love!
you say you don't have much to show us, but i don't think you know how many of us would just watch you goof around and do whatever in ableton. it's so inspiring!
Thank you so much. You have such a gift for what you do, and your insight into mangling the low end is second to none. Really appreciate you. And you know what, I have watched every video i think in the webcam format and find it's more intimate, like Im learning from a friend showing me something. Keep doin' it this way please, fantastic stuff, mate. Cheers from Niagara Falls, Canada!
That intro was so thoughtful, and you're so down to earth man. Your music has always been next level, really, and it’s brought me so much joy over the years. So to me, I’ll wait however long I need to for more. Take your time brother
I won't unsubscribe from your patrion because I've just subscribed and I I really appreciate what you've shared in the past year it's more than I can digest anyways, so enjoy writing music, you're our inspiration, but please do come back.
you've done more than enough with these tutorial series... lotta things to unpack and play with.. go get your other quests done.. and always keep being awesome 👍
A cool fun fact he shared when he was featured in the XLNT Sound Podcast: He said he didn't fact check it - and neither have i - but he mentioned that if you speed sound frequencies up so that they become colour frequencies, notes in the same scale become complimentary colours as well. He also said that notes in the same scale have rhythmic relationships as demonstrated in this video. He joked about designing a table where the ratio of the table's dimensions and it's colours can be converted into a chord and a rhythm, iirc haha
@@henryisaway the part about colors is untrue and kinda nonsensical if you look at the difference in musical harmony and color theory, the two fields work entirely different. the latter part about rhythm i dont understand. what do you mean by rhythm in this context?
@@DoctorSoctopus oh i see. its not surprising though, you can do this with any cyclic function and if the nodes of that functions are multiples of the logarithm of 1/12th of the fundamental it will give you a 12tet chord. you can apply the same idea to distortion and create a transfer function that turns any tone into a chord. as long as all frequencies scale with their relative factors intact it will remain a chord.
Don't ever feel like you have to make people happy. As long as your heart is in the right place and you are being your authentic self. You have no need to try and appease. I have really enjoyed the ride and tangents that your videos have inspired. Keep on being you. Much love.
You got a like the first vid I seen now you get a like and a sub some of the best ableton content on youtube in my opinion thanks for the time and effort.
Thank you for all your help with this i cant wait till you show us how you make all your amazing pads, hope you have a great time and cant wait to hear the big amount of music you ll work on
Why and how are you the nicest guy ever??? You just give away your genius because you know that you have to share the gift you were born with. Big ups brother, keep it up! 🙌🙌🙌🙌
just found you. dude....as an ableton user for years is can 100% say your ideas are soooooooo fuking good and game changing!!!! brahhhhhhhh!!!! where have you been all my life!
As a fellow touring musician who also makes tutorials, I HAVE to use a webcam direct into screenflow for super fast editing or else I would never get anything uploaded.
Just the tuning hack alone was worth the watch. Now I can pitch sounds that never seem to register in the tuner, using another source, like a guitar. Silly me. Thnxx.
You are such a kind person. Saying "you can unsubscribe and get all the stuff you want" and come back later GG I don't know many Patreons where you get so much value in reward, it is amazing. Thank you for keep going! So psyched for 2024 VR music !! Nobody asked for this but: I still listen to your song Gangsters at least weekly since it came out. love the OG scream lead! ツ OK bye
If you think people aren't getting their money's worth, it all just depends on how people use this knowledge in their projects. Also the stuff you put out are quality stuff so I don't see a problem.

Just don't want you to be stressed out man. You've given me so much to learn. Big love❤️
I actually did a record session with a single waterdrop sound and added EQ, reverb and Delay and fiddled a lot around with it and I got some very nice results, by playing around with the pitch, mulholland drive and pogo, stereo delay and reverb in the sample precomputed effects. I rendered most parts of it for later sounddesign purposes. :D
Videos like these should inspire me to learn these techniques but all it does is depressing me that I'm not as creative and good as you for example But it was a nice journey to watch!
i feel like am witnessing a wizard showing off how he makes his potions - more of this pls, webcam is totally fine, the content is great.
Val, You have been my favorite artist for Years. Please never stop using the amazing musical gift you have. ❤
Even as someone who mostly has a pretty different taste in music (Big exceptions here and there, and I always enjoy listening), I LOVE his videos.

agreed
For real

🎶i need a shave and a haircut, real bad 🎵
van!
imagine if virtual riot got a low taper fade
fire sample fr
When the vanatice
Ok I know the next sample I'm gonna use for my drop

most real comment
@@leooduor7053for real though
I don't do any kind of music production and this is absolutely blowing my mind, at 11:45 I legitimately was like "Oh my God"
I don’t even make music but I absolutely love watching your videos and seeing how you make your awesome music! So excited to see the new body of work!!

lol wow that synth at 11:42 sounds so nice. I'm ready to watch 4 hours of nature footage while that synth plays random chords in the background
spot on :D
For me, it sounds like the ambient stuff from aphex twin🤓
Around 12:05, it starts to remind me of the Donkey Kong Country soundtracks by David Wise.
@@moku7253nah thats more BOC
death by amen has me hooked on this channel now lole
his 3 hour track from scratch video had me hooked
yalll not no vr head like me doe...
wow these new vr fans are something else -_-
Definitely check out his old music
dunno why but that reminds me so much of old minecraft console winter season music
really interesting and gorgeous!
that shave and a haircut intro - top tier
My brain is about to melt from information overload! These tutorials have been amazing even when I’m not an Abelton user. Thank you very much and much love!
The way you played your melodies in this video reminds me of Video game music. Especially the ones that were more freetime
thanks for your wisdom!! 💞👏🏼
Man Im hype about all these uploads. keep grinding.
Love you Val! So happy you're in a good creative space again!
Hey VR
Since you gotta make music, I'd be down for another "Making a track from scratch" episode ❤
you say you don't have much to show us, but i don't think you know how many of us would just watch you goof around and do whatever in ableton. it's so inspiring!
mmm that’s like 6 semitones down… subtle flex right there lmao
On god 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Was thinking the same🤯
Good relative pitch 😂.
Amazingly educational. youre videos have been amazing lately, thank you!!

i love EVERYTIME u post. all u post is so unique and always so useful and eductational, opens up for so many possibilities:)
This was such an informative and fun video to watch! Thank you VR you’re amazing
Dude you’re the goat 🐐
Wow... I'm stunned everytime I watch one of your videos! So simple yet so creative, keep up the great work!
you've done more than enough with these tutorial series... lotta things to unpack and play with.. go get your other quests done.. and always keep being awesome 👍
these tutorials are absolutely amazing!
Dude I love it, Dude, I love it. I don't know how you do it, but every time I listen to your music intro, I'm on the edge of tears.
The fact that the 5th is also the 3:2 polyrhythm is magical to me.

@@drkastenbrot Watch this Adam Neely video to understand this concept: "Polyrhythms are Polypitch - live @ Ableton Loop, Berlin"

That's the harmonic series for ya, specifically the second and third harmonics. And ratios like this are the foundation of just-intonations.
You've really changed the way I view Ableton! Keep it up, it's so inspiring
the only person to ever make a single Kalimba sample sound like the entire Steve Miller Band 🤯
Wow, so much inspirations in this video! Thanks for blowing my mind!
Don't ever feel like you have to make people happy. As long as your heart is in the right place and you are being your authentic self. You have no need to try and appease. I have really enjoyed the ride and tangents that your videos have inspired. Keep on being you. Much love.
you're just such an amazing guy im so grateful that you found what you love and make a life of it
Val you are a master at Ableton. I have been using it a lot for over 5 years and you are still showing me stuff I have no idea this program could do
I really appreciate your honesty. I suddenly feel inclined to support your patreon.
Nice update, good to hear. Thankyou for all the help lately. All the best
Such a great tutorial, so jampacked with essential stuff. Thanks so much.
Another gem, we appreciate it! Enjoy your time composing, please remember to take some breaks during your creative process, peace
you are legend for sharing all this knowledge. the lack of gatekeeping is epic and inspiring.
Lurzt
Always love to see these videos uploaded ! Keep it up and keep making awesome music yo ! 💯💜👽
Love u Vel, I'm always loving your songs and the tutorial. You are Legend!
You got a like the first vid I seen now you get a like and a sub some of the best ableton content on youtube in my opinion thanks for the time and effort.
Bro anything you show us is great! thanks so much!!
That loop you made at the end is so beautiful 😭😭😭
I want to be a dubstep dj so bad but I don't trust anyone else but you. I'm so glad you're doing tutorials! I will join your patreon!
Thank you for all your help with this i cant wait till you show us how you make all your amazing pads, hope you have a great time and cant wait to hear the big amount of music you ll work on
Why and how are you the nicest guy ever??? You just give away your genius because you know that you have to share the gift you were born with. Big ups brother, keep it up! 🙌🙌🙌🙌
that's cool man, keep cooking in the booth looking forward to see what you created
just found you. dude....as an ableton user for years is can 100% say your ideas are soooooooo fuking good and game changing!!!! brahhhhhhhh!!!! where have you been all my life!
As a fellow touring musician who also makes tutorials, I HAVE to use a webcam direct into screenflow for super fast editing or else I would never get anything uploaded.
so many great tips and ideas there, awesome, thanks
Killing it with the content
i love this man
Volles Rohr, direkt ins Ohr. Love your tutorials. Thanks a lot for sharing your knowledge
More uploads pls sir. Your music is like my favorite style and it can be hard to find good tutorials like this for this style of edm
That jam at the end is amazing and you absolutely need to make a full track.
When you said you can unsubscribed I liked the video. To help the algorithm. I appreciate your work and love for the art!
I love you VR, thank you for this tutorial
That's awesome!
Cool Idea ❤❤
Very nice technique with that loop! i definitely want to try that out with some one shots
Okay that synth at 11:40 that you made sounded pretty as hell, shocked it came from that bass one-shot 😮
Great stuff, thank you for sharing!
So dislexic and curious that I rly wanted a sample simple fun with sampler
Rad! Thank you!
This is sick. thanks!
Dope! Thank you for the ableton info 💯
Thanks so much for these videos! I'd love to watch a video of you creating a full song from scratch if it's something you don't mind recording.
Used to do this all the time in Impulse Tracker because it was the only real option to make samples interesting
Just the tuning hack alone was worth the watch. Now I can pitch sounds that never seem to register in the tuner, using another source, like a guitar. Silly me. Thnxx.
AHHH so cool!
Love you master!
You are such a kind person. Saying "you can unsubscribe and get all the stuff you want" and come back later GG
I don't know many Patreons where you get so much value in reward, it is amazing.
Thank you for keep going!
So psyched for 2024 VR music !!
Nobody asked for this but: I still listen to your song Gangsters at least weekly since it came out. love the OG scream lead! ツ
OK bye
LET HIM COOK 👨🍳 all these vids have been awesome
This technique reminded me the intro of Mumbai Power from Skrillex for some reason, great tutorial :D
. this made my day ---- THANK U
Would love to hear that little jam at the end turned into a full piece
If you think people aren't getting their money's worth, it all just depends on how people use this knowledge in their projects. Also the stuff you put out are quality stuff so I don't see a problem.
I think most people may just not be that knowledgeable that's why they think they aren't getting what they're paying for.
😅Don't know what everyone else thinks but I'm just saying what I feel. Just don't want you to be stressed out man. You've given me so much to learn. Big love❤️
What you did at 9:10 sounded like my middle school band room every morning. Like fifteen years ago 🤣
Just the fact that if you play a 2 vs a 5th gives you a polyrhythm just blew my mind, let’s get cookin!
My eyes roll back a bit whenever VR plays a chord
I actually did a record session with a single waterdrop sound and added EQ, reverb and Delay and fiddled a lot around with it and I got some very nice results, by playing around with the pitch, mulholland drive and pogo, stereo delay and reverb in the sample precomputed effects. I rendered most parts of it for later sounddesign purposes. :D
Awesom technique!
amazing video!!
11:35 sounds super BOC'y, will definitely be trying out
Bring back some my personal tranquilizer tracks with this haha
thank you for passing the knowledge 🙏
I really seldom use ableton but I so strongly admire the simpler device.
very nice lil demo too :)
Videos like these should inspire me to learn these techniques but all it does is depressing me that I'm not as creative and good as you for example
But it was a nice journey to watch!
I also need a haircut so bad man I feel you. amazing video as always
thank you
Madonna Bro sei troppo un grande
You are gold
Thank you!!!
