  • Here's part of the course for free if you're interested: www.completeproducerpro.com/r...
    Each of these "9 Sound Design Tricks You'll Actually Use" have been huge in my career as a professional producer. I hope you guys take these tricks and ACTUALLY apply them to your music! It's easy to watch a lot of information, but it's a lot harder to apply it. Take these tools and run wild with them! Open up Ableton, or Logic, or FL Studio, or whatever you use, and try some of these out on your own music; that's one of the best ways to improve.
    Feel free to comment any questions or feedback, I try to read all the comments and reply when I can!
    Thanks so much for watching, truly.
    Cheers!

    I like the no-nonsense way everything is described, and I think it's worthwhile keeping a list of all these little tricks handy for when you're fluffing things up at the end. I just used the reverse reverb trick on the vox of a rock track using Cakewalk; works so well to add just a little extra interest.

  • @Squidaniel
    @Squidaniel 6 місяців тому

    Great video, dumb question …won’t duping vocal and dousing it with verb cause phasing because it’s a duplicate? Or do you print it with the reverb on it so that it’s different thus not creating phase?

    • @CompleteProducer
      @CompleteProducer  6 місяців тому +1

      If the signal of the duplicated vocal is 100% wet for the reverb you shouldn't have any phasing issues!

    The vocal duplicate-reverb trick is great, might use it soon, feels like automation pushed further, thanks for that!
    Also, on tip n°8 the synth sound sounds so good, is it a preset of yours? Can we find it somewhere? (instrument rack called "Ghost Whistle2", with a Serum preset called "CH poly sine smooth")

    • @CompleteProducer
      @CompleteProducer  6 місяців тому

      CH poly sine is a preset from Oliver that's available on splice! That with the redux effect on it is the sound. If you have serum and splice you can remake it pretty easily!

  • @32Bivens

    Does anyone know how to cut off the reverb tails at certain points? Almost like how a sustain pedal works on a piano. I want the reverb to build for a bit, then delete all the accumulated reverb from the plugin. I've seen people say you should bounce the reverb audio and do it that way, but I was hoping there was a better way than that.

    • @vjmcgovern
      @vjmcgovern 6 місяців тому +1

      Use a gate to cut off the tail once it goes under a certain volume. Unless you’re letting the reverb accumulate to a point where it never drops in volume… in that case, there is a solution, but just let me think about it

    • @vjmcgovern
      @vjmcgovern 6 місяців тому

      You could use
      Volume automation via your DAW, a plugin like shaperbox 3, or a free ducking plugin
      If you’ve got the money for it, Shaperbox also lets you use stop reverb abruptly without automation, using a specific time control

    • @CompleteProducer

    The reverb trick kinda is kinda masked by the long reverb your using on your vox send also to if you want your last chorus to be bigger why not like add extensions to your chords or extra harmonies that add more harmonic content and not just reinforce what’s already there(which is what your doing harmony wise with the strings)
