    Gotta say, after producing for nearly 6 years, this channel always seems to feel like most helpful and comprehensive tips and tricks channel. Doesn't dwell in a niche and takes time to explain everything very well. Keep it up, guys.

    Went from feeling overwhelmed with arranging drums to confident after 1 video. Crazy. You explained everything so well! I'm leaving this comment here as a reminder to purchase your course in the future.

    I love that you show the process of experimenting with options. Knowing what options you have is such a great tool to use when you get stuck, or uninspired. It is like a painter knowing which colors they can paint with.

    Hi Austin! I'm listening through your podcast and in the episode from about a month ago you asked people to let you know if we'd like to see you full workflow for creating drum samples. I'm just here to let you know that I would be extremely interested in seeing that :) Thank you!

    I started adding background percussive loops like you demoed here after watching your videos for a while, and that alone added so much to my drum sounds. Started experimenting with pitched wood and tom hits to add some of that as well. Processed the metric shit out of them and used that as a sort of ambient, but still driving layer and I've been loving it.

    Only problem that i see in programming midi is that u need to always focus on the velocity of the samples, great video :)

    • @MakePopMusic
      @MakePopMusic  2 роки тому +1

      Definitely important if you’re using samples or a sampler where it can control velocity!

    Is cubase a lot better than studio one? I was about to buy cubase but was advised against it as apparently studio one is slightly better? Any advice?

    • @MakePopMusic

      Oh definitely! But you won’t get the same sounds as you do when you program. Live tracked drums sound amazing when that’s what the song needs though!

    I don't know why I never noticed how much Alt+dragging you do until this video. 😅 Now... I don't use Cubase anymore, but try using Alt+Shift+drag to copy a MIDI region AND have it sync changes across all loops. Saves a ton of time when you're building out arrangements using 4 or 8 bar loops.

    Why didn’t you just side chain compress the kick to the snare? Way cleaner than messing about with velocities
