I have played keyboards for 30 years, it sounded too stiff and the organ is not great at all. Maybe a B3 sound, but I think this needs a killer analog Juno 106 type pad, some brass for accent and a 16th note solo arpeggio over the main part. Maybe I over think things :)
when we record if the tempo is 85 as yours is, we double it make it 170, so the song has more *feel* and its easier to jump to, less space between click, keeps it tighter
i also do that when making my songs, i put it into double time or set the metronome in a way where it clicks 8 times in a bar instead of four. really helps me play less sloppy especially on slower songs
You pretty much went over my workflow that I discovered myself after years of trial and error, acquiring various software (still looking for a killer software amp sim), and research. Don't sleep on this, kids. It may be a little heavy on the Toontrack stuff, but the basic concepts still apply. This is how you do it. I wish I had this video years ago. And the fact of the matter is, EZ Mix seems to make it, well, easy.The only thing maybe worth mentioning, to play off what you said about recording with a drum track (though might be overkill for simple demo recording), is additional instrument order. I find i tend to get the best results recording in the traditional order after you have the ideas down: Drums -> bass -> rhythm guitar -> lead guitar -> vocals. Having a solid, steady foundation seems to make it much easier for me to lock in those leads (and even rhythm guitar) with less takes and frustration.
Thanks man! Yeah, once you've got the ideas down, actually tracking them is another thing entirely. Although I usually go drums - rhythm guitar - bass, just because the rhythm guitar to me is the meat of the song around which everything else revolves, and I have to make the basslines work around that, and I can't personally record bass when there's only drums. But that's me.
@@counterweight320 there's too much going on. The notes in the chords are competing with each other. It'd be better to just play single notes with it's octaves layered on it.
be me have a laptop, a guitar interface, a guitar and a cheap amp, total under $500 excluding the laptop have no EZmix, no keyboard, no midipad, no bass, no DAW why am i even here fml
There are free DAWs out there, plenty of free amp sim plugins, and you can click in MIDI stuff with the mouse until you get a MIDI controller. You can do it!
i do have free DAW but the free amp sims are not quite as good as the EZMix. ive tried a bunch. they have a very unusable ping between input and output.
Hehe! Im about in this same boat.. i have my cheap guitar with updated humbuckers.. my cheap bedroom amp and my pedals i like.. my desktop pc (a couple years old), my interface the scarlet 2i4 which came with ableton live 9, i believe.. i then bought EZdrummer 2, with a deal on 2 plugin packs, made of metal, and Matt Halpern’s pack.. just learning through ableton.. its fun, but it will take some time.. this is my first attempt at recording.. and will be sticking with it.. any nice tutorials, podcast recommendations, websites etc. would be cool.. Probably going to get a couple more toontrack plugins when i get the money to..
A really in depth view of your workflow. Very similar to my own, but I saw some tools and learned a bit more about the mastering stage that I needed to see. Thanks for this!
This guy named Mike gave me some good advice back in the day. He told me that when I played my demo for people to lie and say that it was someone other than me that was singing/performing. People are more inclined to be honest when the person they are assessing is not present. You might not get an honest response if the person you played the demo for knows it's you on the recording. In attempts to be polite they might not tell you you suck, even if you do.
i didnt realize how easy it was to just copy, paste and delete your guitar sound! i am completely new to recording and was under the impression you really had to be ready for a long haul once you hit record. i have been goofing around with recording for the last few months on and off. it was very challenging at first but i have been to make a few jams out it. im using the free audacity program and connecting my guitar preamp through usb (cave man style). seeing you make all this from scratch was simply amazing! GREAT TUTORIAL
Depends what you're doing. For a demo like this, it's absolutely acceptable to record in pieces and use a lot of placeholder stuff just to get ideas down. After all the purpose is just for sharing ideas at a basic level to get feedback or to share with band members. But if you're recording something as a final product, you probably do want to actually record things at once as much as possible so it sounds like an actual performance.
@@TheCoolSquare if your loop is long enough you can get away with looping it. If its short like the one in the video the looping insanely obvious. If he would have recorded it as an 8 bar loop it would have sounded more natural
Do NOT copy and paste riffs! If you play a riff twice in a song, PLAY IT TWICE! Last thing you want is to notice like two weeks from now that there's a random pick scrape or tiny error in your playing, and now you have to hear it 16 times on your track.
Man, everything else in the video is sampled and artificial, might as well copy/paste. Kind of hard to worry about playing real riffs, when everything else is samplers and modelers.
Great video. Demo tastic. I would have done a tweak to the "to" vocal. Mute the original vocal, copy it to another track and manually select the peak of the blown "to" and edit/lower the gain on the peak about 10db. You will hear the "to" perfectly without the breath and pop.
These are some good ideas for making song structure. I think for the most part it can set it up to give your other musicians in the band what you may want and then use the actual musicians to execute the parts. I'm not a big fan of the sound of the vocal microphone that was used to make this, but it's a demo. Thank you for sharing. I do like the sound of your guitar for this type of music though and a nice job playing it. I'm curious to know what this would sound like if this was recorded to tape on separate tracks. I give this a thumbs up.
This was cool... and about where im at.. except at a lot worse, because im just starting and dont have much gear.. but would love to learn how to record.. cool little vid man... thanks!
Why don't people understand this whole thing was for demo purposes so what if the keys aren't to your liking. It's a example of putting down ideas fast..! I love this video!!
I think the problem everyone has with it is that he probably would have taken just as long figuring out a better keyboard part on the instrument itself instead of fiddling with the kind of awkward pre-built chords.
totally helpful...it kind of alternative way to making demo in low budget.. negative comments toward making a demo out of this technique im sure all of u have all the high end equipment in your inventory or studio...as for me.. this is more than enough consider as a home studio..
im not a big fan of what you did with the keys, but i get the point...personally i would have placed it further "behind" the mix and drop that volume way lower then everything else...
My producer and friends recommended that I'd leave a few mistakes on the demo to inspire the music producers of the labels and to get their attention; so I did and am almost sure that it's one of the best music demos in the world because it shows a lot of versatility artistically and I demonstrate my willingness to change and adapt to my fans and environment and to have them grow with me. My first demo was way to intimidating and did't leave much for the imagination. If I don't land a deal in the next few years I'm going to sell it to another artist as an album and just start over. Thank you...
What if i dont had a keyboard or a pad for the drums? can I use my keyboard??? and if I dont have a bass can I modify the minidata from the guitar to make it sound like a bass???
This was a great demo of demos! I use “EZ” too. You kept apologising in a way for your work, “I know it sounds generic now but i’ll Spruce it up later”. Dude, it sounded great, I know this was a few years back but you gotta show confidence man. If it sounds good to you it sounds good to us! Especially with how easy it is.
Around 16:10 in the video, YOU sir could have just ran your DI from the guitar in as a midi channel when playing the riff, THEN you would have just had the notes for the ez keys to play from.
Ah cool! In my vids lately, I found Krystal Media Audio Engine freeware 99 multi-tracks with EQ, reverb, (not like Urs, Damn!) and Acoustica BeatCraft cheap drum maker a long time ago but thinking of upgrades maybe?? \m/
Why so much hate in this comment section? He was displaying how he records DEMOS. This is just an idea. Not a finished product. A lot of professionals do it this way, as well. Go watch the Devin Townsend song recording demo he did for toontrack if you need proof.
Very cool. Thanks for sharing and showing us how you do things. I'd personally never set the velocity of everything to 127 "because this is metal." It's not. All velocity at 127 sounds like steaming shit, and you lose the human-sounding imperfections.
Hey Trey, I wanna get a little midi pad to adjust midi drums easier but I don't need anything to flashy. What's the midi pad you're using or do you have other recommendations?
The one I'm using is the IK Multimedia iRig Pads, it's crazy easy to use, very portable, and pretty cheap. It's also the only one I've owned, so I don't have any good suggestions for other ones to try unfortunately. But there are a few on the market.
@@hellodumplings8564 but you wil get used to that metronome like sound and time alignment. When my guitarfriends program drums they almost always program quaternotes for cymbals and turn them down in the mix pref without any attack. Kick is then mostly used for accenting and tightening of the guitarriff. Friends of mine also said that it was for writing purposes only but I have to regulary deal with a long face when I play my drumpart over it because I don't play the robotic unrealistic bs they programmed. Like most drummers I play 8ths on cymbals and close and open hihats. I put a snare slightly in front of a beat for urgency and to the back of a beat to make a piece sound grander. I also put a fraction of a swing in my 16th note double bass in some parts to give it a certain vibe. So wen guitarist in my band writes a song I say.. write it with a metronome the he sends it to me I play drums and then they Make a song from it. Then everything comes to life.
Say I wanted to release a full album all recorded and tracked like this Ezmix ez drummer and all that stuff Since I’m just a guitarist with no other musician friends as I wanted to put this out on Bandcamp Would it still be called a demo???
That would be an album, in my opinion. I may be biased though, as I am doing the exact same thing Haha. I'm a guitarist recording a full length "album" by myself.
I know this is an older video, but was hoping you could answer a question. When you used EZDrummer and put in your own kicks using the pad, how did you select only the kick midi in the velocity line? How were you able to not select any of the othe midi notes? Thanks for the tutorial.
Nice tutorial man! Quick question, what software do you use to make the tutorials? I am having to do some software tutorials for work and was going to use OBS studio. Any suggestions? By the way, it was really informative to see someone else's creativity at work, I wish more people had your patience, editing ability and willingness to show others your work and expose yourself to some of the dipwad comments out there. I, for one, really appreciate it!
So is your guitar hooked up to a box than to the cpu? Im trying to learn and my biggest problem now is using vst to make my effect sound decent. I actually gave up and started hooking my amp direct to my box so i can use the amps effects but there is to much latency.Id love to just be able to click a button like Merrow (LOVE) and hear it sound beast right away. also do i need special speakers? I have a basic cpu speaker set up with subwoofer. When I was using my amp I would do guitar-amp-audiobox-cpu and was using studioone. I also have ezdrummer 2. Im thinking about getting ez mix based on your video. thanks m8! any tips would be great!
Sir in regards to EzDrummer 2 how are you exporting that into your DAW to where you can manipulate the midi notes like you did to add bass drum notes? When I try to export it simply exports as a audio file not Midi- thanks!
Those keyboards bother me
Same. Organ sounds ass.
I have played keyboards for 30 years, it sounded too stiff and the organ is not great at all. Maybe a B3 sound, but I think this needs a killer analog Juno 106 type pad, some brass for accent and a 16th note solo arpeggio over the main part. Maybe I over think things :)
Could've been cool if he didn't match the last part of that riff to the guitar
But it's EZKeys.
This whole thing bothers me
when we record if the tempo is 85 as yours is, we double it make it 170, so the song has more *feel* and its easier to jump to, less space between click, keeps it tighter
As long as it doesn’t get sloppy when you play then that’s awesome. I’m learning music production so I love people’s tips
@@EricJaegerMusic I usually double up the tempo on slow things like that too
i also do that when making my songs, i put it into double time or set the metronome in a way where it clicks 8 times in a bar instead of four. really helps me play less sloppy especially on slower songs
I second this, it's way easier as a drummer to play to 170 than it is for 85.
"Just a skoach"
Mate what did you just say
Andrew Baena Do you even Skoach bro?
Skosch*
Ha ha, Musicians use this term all the time "Hey sound guy can you turn up my monitor a skoach?" I hear it all the time

You cant use piano chords like power chords on guitar... That was like the most unfunctional harmony Ive ever seen
Why not?

Track without any FX. Move the recorded part to a track with the FX enabled. Presto

+Chad Blackmon no problem homes, happy to help
Pro Tip: In Pro Tools you can tap the tempo by pressing the "t" key while the tempo change menu is open.
yeah I may have forgotten about that one in the heat of the moment hahaha
You can also just tap the tempo section in reaper in the time you need to use east as

bang on right, recording to a click track then adding drums later - basically you have to resort from scratch.

I have a basic cpu speaker set up with subwoofer. When I was using my amp I would do guitar-amp-audiobox-cpu and was using studioone. I also have ezdrummer 2. Im thinking about getting ez mix based on your video. thanks m8! any tips would be great!
Audio interface
Sir in regards to EzDrummer 2 how are you exporting that into your DAW to where you can manipulate the midi notes like you did to add bass drum notes? When I try to export it simply exports as a audio file not Midi- thanks!
Kyle Ganger It is standalone actually. But yes you can also open it in your DAW and change the midi notes (drum hits) like you said
That was pretty interesting. I enjoyed it :D
Hey i like your process, very realistic. Thanks for the video
