I just came across your channel. You are an absolute genius, my friend. As a producer myself, constantly trying to learn new ways to improve my sound, I struggle on staying focused with videos like this. But, you have introduced comic relief that relieves the pressure of learning. I thank you, Reid Stefan. Subscribed.
ORRRR, on the same track as your 808, make an audio effect rack (Right click), then make two chains in that rack, one for the effect, one for the clean or dry signal. Mangle effect to taste and mix back with dry signal.
Do this, because send/return method demonstrated here will induce phase inconsistencies. Sending audio there (to a send) and back takes a certain amount of time. When the signal comes back, it will me milliseconds later than the original (clean, no sends) signal. However, this might not be an issue with Live 10.
TribecaBlackstarr yes I was thinking this too. Also sidechain issues? And mixdown if you're bouncing stems for mastering house. You'd have all these extra stems requiring more mixing.
You can just bounce them down to one stereo track or just mix it yourself. Also, depending on what you’re going for, the phase inconsistencies might actually be desirable
Also, no need to buy ST's Decapitator, theres a million distortion and waveshaping plugins out there that do the trick nicely, as well as your DAWS built in plugs.
Awesome Video!! Could you show us how to Mix those disrespectful 808's in Logic (maybe even with stock plugins as well?) I tried to replicate what you did and it kind of worked by using the new Phat FX Tube into Vari-Drive distorting only between 120Hz and 1.5kHz just as the Vertigo VSM does. :)
Dopee!!! Small question here. I'm not familiar with abelton but what ur doing with your effect chain is basicly putting them on the signal parrallel right? Just so i'm not making mistakes here haha.
Quick question: When you brought in the UAD Vertigo it was under "Powered Plugins/Mono." I noticed that under my plugins tab there's also a section for it where it isn't under mono. Is there a big difference between which one I select? And or because you're doing Bass is that why you picked the mono version?
no he does not, check the lowcut knob on decap its not active, so i wonder if this is really a great idea even spreading the sub a bit stereo ? like that should be bad in a club where sub is mono
I have a question: When I distort my 808's, I always get these unwanted harmonics that seem to like, change the note or collide with the note my 808 is playing. Is it because the distortions are too high pitched and I need to EQ them better? Its hard to explain without playing someone the sound but if anyone can interpret this terribly worded question I would appreciate it lol.
Jeremy G make sure your 808 is mono and that the kick low end isn’t clashing with it as well. you may also need to duck a bit your samples to create space for the 808. 300Hz seems to be the frequency where the 808 pops in weaker sound systems (earbuds, pc speakers) and 60-100Hz where you hear that strong low end thump. anything below afaik is just rattling.
"So Im just gunna hit that drive knob a little bit aggressively"
*cranks all the way to 10*
We formally apologize to anyone who was offended by the 808s in this tutorial
hahahaaahah I love u bruh. you the best/beast
🤣🤣🤣
@@juanmiguelmendez8536 the BOAT !!!!
These farts will save your mix down
Damn that 808 was so disrespectful it threw a plastic 6-pack ring into the ocean
lmao
Take THAT, nature

Soundboys would've been a better name for their company haha
Soundboiis
Check out my last video about Soundboys Echotoy
Reid Stefan already watched it G. Keep the quality tuts coming.
Soundboiz
Tru ironically there’s a vast company called ohm boyz
loving the darker aesthetic vibe of your room setup ❤️
Love that puppet.

great tips tks Reid!
“These farts will save your mix down.” I felt that. 😂
And parallel compression is king! 👍💪
Where are the Camel crusher😒
Love the puppet idea, genius! 💯👊🔊🎸👍👐
Thank u bigman🤙💛
Love your videos!!
Dope as thanks for the video!
My favorite for 808s is E as well lol
These farts will save your mixdown hahahah
da following tutowial is bwought to u by hole loops daht kahm :)
still relevant 5 years later
Hit that drive button aggressively give a lil punishing.
Also, no need to buy ST's Decapitator, theres a million distortion and waveshaping plugins out there that do the trick nicely, as well as your DAWS built in plugs.
Great video!!! How about a video about the types of loudness? SC, iTunes , streaming. Your approach to it. How to achieve it and so forth...thx
Damn, that kick and 808 is straight fiya. Can you please let me know where you got the kick and 808 from ?

hilarious. love your vids.
hahahaha decapitator by soundBOYS dont know why im laughin so hard but hahahaha bru
If you're watching this...look at the jelly fish in the back as he intros....you wont be let down.
Hey at 5:40 you loss me.. I’m working out of Logic Pro and I don’t know how you spread the 808 when you said returns in the daw your using
brooo this whole format is so CRINGE!!!!
Great video, but what I really want to know is where did you get that jellyfish lamp!? The ones I've seen on Amazon don't look nearly as cool.
Would someone kindly answer how can be done 5:25 with FL studio? He seems to be panning the effects?!
You put it on a bus track and pan it from the mixer if that track!
hey Reid , camelcrusher is discontinued, any ideas where to find it? or does DECaprirtor gets the same results? thanks sir
You’ll find it if you google it
Make 2 distortion sends and pan them slightly to left and right... genius
DAMN

“It just sounds like farts”😂
Awesome vid man! But is there a plugin similar to the vsm-3?
"These farts will save your mixdown" :D hahahahahahaha
Please make an tutorial on how to make acapella bro

only watched cause of the puppet. quality content tho.
Shouldn`t u eq de low end of the distorted signal, so the sub area of the dry and the wet signals dont clash?
In fact, he does it, but instead of using an eq, he uses the built-in low cut of the plugins
no he does not, check the lowcut knob on decap its not active, so i wonder if this is really a great idea even spreading the sub a bit stereo ? like that should be bad in a club where sub is mono
ughhhhhhh I WANT ABLETON 10
VSM-3 by brainworx... any alternatives that compare ?
K DVB plugin alliance sells the same plugin
Thanks for the info. Can you post a link to buy this plugin ?
K DVB www.plugin-alliance.com/en/products/vertigo_vsm-3.html
Are those 2 tracks of the same 808 kick? Why isn't their phase cancellation 0_o
phase cancellation only happens when the two sound waves are out of phase. If they're in phase they'll just be louder.
Raven P that'll serve as my fun production fact of the day, thanks! Gonna try on all my basses now

you should put the puppet on a green screen next time
Who would have thought what you can learn from a puppet..
not even the jellyfish are real man.....
im an adult and im still learning from puppets
Just saved me with this trick! Would you recommend doing this with a sub bass too for rap/pop music?
300$ for vertigo, can anyone suggest me a good alternative other than that?
Beat Making mmmmmm... sausage fattener? But like not really an alternative. Vertigo is god tier
Beat Making or fabfilter Saturn
Redlight distortion - Free
Is there any tutorial of this only with ableton stock plugins?
WHERESSS THE SAUSAGE FATTENER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.... Just kiddin lol
2:57
Greatest quote of 2017
This guy😂
Uh what happened? Lol jk love ya reid
No way more stronger sausage fattener 0 out of 7 review
I'm offended
perhaps turn your channel down after you shape it so we can actually hear what your doing
Could u at least fucking apologize for these 808s
wtf?....
