NEVER EVER SAY "I'm boring you guys". I'm sure everyone would be totally okay with watching a 12+ hour video of you making music. It's insane how smart you are and amazing to learn from someone like you. KEEP IT UP!
you should check out oversampled if you haven’t. he’s not really a teacher but he does record himself producing things practically from start to finish. good for getting inspiration
13:11 says “ I don’t want this tutorial to take forever” proceeds to make 3 hr long video 😂😂 Val we love you. You could make a 10 hr long tutorial and me and everybody else would love every second. You’re the man Val thank you for everything you do for us. ❤❤
I remember when I started listening to music from VR. I was always fascinated by how he achieves such balanced and unique sounds. His mixing and mastering was beyond my comprehension, everything sounded of incredible quality. You could hear by the tracks that their creator knows what to do. And today, thanks to development and progress, I can learn the very production with the same artist who is my idol. VR, following your videos many of us can start our adventure with electronic music production and learn many incredibly useful things to make our music better. Your Patreon and your materials are the best thing that could happen in the world of music. I hope your career will never end and on my deathbed I will continue to listen to your latest tracks and compositions, which as we all know very well, are out of this world. Virtual "Mozart of EDM music" Riot.
What makes me so in shock is how fast he is with his ideas and the way hes able to make things from scratch quickly while fitting the song perfectly. Most have have so much trial and error when it comes to finding sounds that fit, but his brain just knows exactly what to put and when to put it. Master of his craft.
I don't want to discredit what he's doing, but I think most of this is achieved through just making thousands of patterns and songs. People who are able to do this effortlessly almost always have just done it 10x-100x more times than others who struggle to get ideas working together. I mean this to say that you or anybody else is just as capable through persistence and repetition. You have the power
This guy makes super hype dance music, but based on his knowledge of DAWs, music theory, and sound design. He could legitimately make any style of music.
I am literally blown away by this guys talent, innate knowledge of all things audio and his ability to explain things concisely and to the point. Amazing work man.
Constantly vocalising your thought stream while producing really is the ticket. U got so in the zone too.. It really is gold to watch. Very similar to my inner monologue. Just much much faster,. Thank you
Oh mein Gott!!! Danke dir für alles! 2 h und 40 min sind wirklich insane! Pass auf, dass du nicht überarbeitest! Mach nur so viel, wie du es als richtig empfindest! Danke!
Seriously, we'd love a 12 hour video of you just taking your time and doing your thing. We've learned a ton with you rushing, can't imagine what we'd learn if you took your time, but either way, this is pure gold. Thank you for sharing with us. :D
I love when producers actually think about the community and share their ideas with us. A lot of producers keep stuff like this “top secret” so that no one can copy them. Thank you for not being like that and thinking of us too! 🙏🙏
Crazy watching the old studio times when I had no idea how producing worked. Now watching the new ones with the knowledge I have now, it’s so cool to just see the creative process rather than pause every 2 seconds and be like “what did this man just do”. One of the goats of edm fs.
I wonder if VR was ever a professor or something because he's REALLY good at teaching. It's not just him being an expert in his field, because even professionals can be really bad instructors (saying this from experience lol).
There's a video of VR teaching normal people the basics of production in Puerto Rico 4 years ago, but idk if it's still on UA-cam, it should be in SoundKiller's channel
If I'm not mistaken, VR was in the news paper or something when he was a child in Germany deemed as a "child musical prodigy". He was composing his own symphonies on the Organ at age 4(?) I believe? You can find the interview on youtube but, he was born for music literally. He's a musical genius and there are multiple videos of him going to schools to teach, also if I'm not mistaken he taught a class or 2 at the college that he graduated from. You should be able to find all of this on google
I'm just impressed by how far you already know what works, it's a kind of preplanned composition like you have the whole track envisioned in your mind already before writing it. I would love to develop such a vision too!
I love how you go in depth on making the sounds and altering existing sounds to make them your own. When you use another sample, you’re always finding a way to change it to make it sound different from the original. Well done my man!
You have an incredible ability to know exactly what tool you need and the speed at which you can realize something in your head is actually really inspiring. I’ve had probably a 3 month creative block so after seeing you work I can’t wait to get back to my studio. Thank you 🙏
last year i re watched all of your live stream vods before sleeping and i'm so happy that you haven't changed a bit xD Thank you for being a super cracked inspirational humble human being
Thank you so much for recording this and giving this to us. you're an absolute legend and I can't express how cool it is to take a dive into your mind. You're a really funny and outgoing person Val and I love your personality we need more of this when you have the time. Love you and stay up king
Appreciate all the effort you make while making this tutorials. I make music since 06, and a couple of time ago, producers mostly didn’t share any tips or the ones that they share was scarce and very basic, it made me take a bit of an hard time to make what I wanted, I know the feeling.. this will motivate a lot of people, to not give up and try new stuff! Keep it up
Thank you for starting to make this type of videos again :), although I still don't know English, I'm trying to learn and this is very helpful to continue with this dream of music production.
I really hope this track comes out as an official release. I mean, the time and effort that Val put in this melodic creation from scratch is absolutely amazing. This has gotta be by far one of the most interesting Studio Time episodes that I watched.
Wow, just wow. I have always wondered how you get your mixes so clean and what your mastering process looks like. I would love to see an Ozone breakdown where you master different genres of music because I always feel so lost trying to use it and often rely on the AI tool for a suggested master. Absolutely incredible work, totally worth the 2 hour binge. I am obsessed with this new series of tutorials and can’t wait to see more!!
I'll tell you man. I just started relearning production after not touching a DAW for 4-5 years and fuck, I've always simped for VR but watching him produce now makes me want to learn more or quit lmaooo this dude is the best producer that has ever walked the earth, its so wild. I will never not be impressed with him
In the ned you added the Kitty I love u vocal! It fits sooo well in there and you also added this glitch fill + the impact to finalize the track! Such a great track! We need this on Spotify after you keep working in this in future episodes!
Good lord I started on Ableton a few weeks ago and this video is really showing how I can elevate my productions in Ableton or frankly anything else. Thanks for the inspiration!
don't feel bad about it being so long. It took me 3 days to finish the video but i definitely watched through till the end. You are a god for this. Thank you! Keep it up
I still can't believe that virtual riot just made a track in front of me. I was so mesmerized the entire time I didn't even notice the video was 3 hours long! 😂
I use FL studio to produce and after watching this I'm just mind boggled on how fast you make all the automation and effects duplication over multiple tracks on ableton. I could never work that fast, I wish I could, really awesome video I was just vibin along and am now making a song myself, very inspirational, I loved the tip on the volume on low energy and high energy tracks, also about that 4k i had a suspicion on those frequencies that were causing my tracks to sound distorted a little bit and once i found that out, filtering multiple layers to not have that mid frequencies helped so much on this project I'm working on now. Been thinking on going back to multiple tracks i had that were lacking on mastering and seeing if that does the job. Thanks so much VR
Woo! Happy Friday, what a rad thing to wake up to. Chillin with VR while I go about my morning routine - can’t get better than that. Thanks Valentin! ❤
Wow, just watched the whole thing. It's crazy how quickly you turned a not so interesting sound or a sound that didn't sound right and immediately knew what to change.
I think that this video has been the most informative so far. Definitely got some tips from this video like reducing the lower mids etc. And the way you arrange thought me a lot. Thank you VR❤
this is so useful!!!!!!!! so many youtube tutorials focus on individual sounds but don't focus on the little minutia that go into actually arranging stuff into a whole track. sound design is cool an useful but arrangement is a whole different skill that i feel like isn't really commonly addressed in youtube videos - you have to go through VODs instead where a lot of ideas might actually go nowhere (which is good, but sometimes you don't have time to sit and watch yk)
There's a lot of things I could say in this comment but I won't make it drawn out. I don't have Twitter or Instagram so I had absolutely no idea this existed. I started listening to you in 2012 when I was a freshman in high school, i'm nearly 26 now and I still listen to the same playlist i've made since then, 95% of anything you've done or been apart of is in my Spotify. Now, as a 26 year old who is starting to make dubstep at a novice level, I have my FAVORITE artist to provide me lessons, insight and motivation!? FOR FREE!? I'm going to watch every one of the Studio Time's on repeat. Can't wait for you to come to Denver again!
This was great. I hate to say it but seeing you hit the occasional sticking point on a specific sound and generally acknowledging a little bit of the fatigue that can come from getting an idea out or getting to a good stopping point for working on a track is super relatable.

For real, he could produce songs like nothing!

@@zepheriyah Yeah but VR is obviously better at least because he has been producing for more than a decade and have better experience

Yes it’s really impressive. Sets the bar extremely high
you should watch his live stream before. I've been blown my mind by his talent for 10 years now lol
Am I dreaming because this is a dream come true. Can't express how amazing these studio time episodes are. VR is the GOAT!! THIS IS SO AWESOME

Люто, почти 3 часа топовейшего тутора по синтезу!
Как ты смог все это посмотреть 😮
я даже не успел заметить, как они прошли
1:19:28 the arp melody is “Anything Can Happen in the Next Half Hour”, hoping they play it on their next tour!

It's not just him being an expert in his field, because even professionals can be really bad instructors (saying this from experience lol).
Right. He connected all of his points very effectively and quickly in a smooth flow. Dat german efficiency baby!

This man uploads a 3 hour video and you are hooked to it every second. Thank you for everything val
Thank you for giving out MASSIVE resources for everyone to watch FREELY Val!!! (there is the Patreon stuff, but you get what I mean)
These videos are the best thing that'll happen this year! 🙌🏻❤️
Truth
This is no jokes better than any shilled music production masterclass out there. Can you please do more videos of you just working on full songs
Seriously man, this is such valuable stuff for producers of all levels to draw from. Thank you so much for this.
Oh my god!
Watched it again and this is absolutely fantastic ❤
Loved the tiny details in the intro

2:28:46 quite a banger in here !
that's the real sauce
When you do this kind of melodic dubstep I love how it comes out! 🔥👌!
It's one thing to watch a tutorial on music production and it's another to watch it from someone who's successfully toured the world with their music.
love tuning in to learn more about production, and to see how your mind works. great stuff man, keep it up!
You made a complex masterpiece of a track in just 3hrs😨 you’re not human bro 👽🔥🔥
Chord/lead idea sounds JUST like Come to Me by Akira Complex, LOVE IT! rip to an absolute legend always
It's insane how much you can learn from such a short period of watching your work flow and writing! Thank you for putting the time in to share this!

The fact that you’re just casually sketching out brilliant ideas that would take me hours 😭

This was great. I hate to say it but seeing you hit the occasional sticking point on a specific sound and generally acknowledging a little bit of the fatigue that can come from getting an idea out or getting to a good stopping point for working on a track is super relatable.
