What do you struggle with when making layers? 👇
I’m struggling with making my leads sound BIG. I think it has something to do with my reverb/delay but I just can’t get it right
I mostly use harmonies with 3 or four notes on top of each other for 2 or 3 layers alongside with 2 - 3 lead layers (maybe four if u want a really extreme lead). Make sure they all sound like one lead together (clean) so you dont hear every single layer u use, u can achieve that by equing and tweaking, also a nice sub bass will improve your leads alot, i also add like a french horn or a dubstep bass under it and sidechain it to drums that are playing with the leads if that sounds good , it gives it more power in my opinion and for the climax add a sidechained saw that is playing the bass notes with an up and down motion . Oh and add a fabfilter pro q-3 on the mater with a lowcut at 20Hz and a highcut at 20Khz that will remove unhearable frequencies but make your sounds sound alot cleaner and less muddy in my opinion. (Btw sorry if u dont understand becaue of my english and im still a beginner but thats how i do it)@@Casqie
Oh and add some nice pads and maybe arps that fit the vibe
i find that i cant seem to get the chords to work well with the lead i've made in terms of mixing and choosing the right notes
In logic it’s possible do the same thing with plug in layer?
This channel is a goldmine
Dude this is the best explanation on how to layer leads! Keep it up!

Sylenth1 Leads plz
presets??
My Problems with Layers is: Mono...
I analysed a few reference tracks by putting them into mono and heard barely a difference.
If i do that with my leads, they cancel each other out and i don't know how to fix that.
With Reverb and Delay it gets even worse (duuuuh)
Is there just something i forget?
If you mean the mono button in Serum:
Its a button that makes it so only one note can be played at a time. This is so you can slide your notes (thats what the portamento time knob is under it)
If you mean mono as in mono and stereo then i have no clue
@@Sub_Zero_47 Hey, i know what that means... I speak about mono-compatibility... My tracks always get fucked by that and you kinda need it
I used to have that problem too, u can literally use any sounds and mash them up together correctly, that phasing issue is goes under the radar a little bit
Would u reccomend to use OTT instead of CLA-2A or use both? Why no ott
OTT is a multiband compressor while CLA-2A is a compressor with some analog warmth. I'd go with CLA-2A. OTT comes in later! 💪
Also ott is a multi band that already has a preset. Ott stands for over the top compression. So it's definitely not what you want. Your looking to bring out the attack in the leads which you do with a slower attack on when he compression hits. This makes it not lower the volume of the sound for the very beginning so it effectively makes the attack sound louder
@@maxwellhubbard2749OTT also is combining up and downward compression, right? I don't have it, I always use Cubase's squasher for this, and use both up and down comp, but I'm not sure if that's actually what OTT does.
Why do you use FL Studio?
It's the DAW I started producing in! It's not the DAW that matters, but the producer... Always remember that 😉

Yeah 👍🏻🤓
