Getting Dirty with Textures (using Cableguys Shaperbox & Noiseshaper)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 тра 2024
- Today let's talk about two powerful tools in electronic music production: the envelope follower, and the complex LFO! We'll use these tools to add texture and glue to our drumloops, and even create entirely new instruments made up of atonal noise textures.
These concepts are universally applicable, but in this video we will demonstrate these concepts using Cableguys Noiseshaper VST, as they were so kind as to sponsor this video. Find the Cableguys VSTs here: www.cableguys.com/

Is there an envelope follower VST that I can map to something else outside the plugin?
Please make a video explaining what you mean when you say ‘what story your track is trying to tell’. Please and thank you. Keep ping ponging your head.
You have been the only instructor I have ever found, that has an approach that does anything but make the audience feel inadequate. I wish all instructors - from all facets of life and education - would share the same approach. Not only is it very clear that you have an immense love (and understanding) of music, but the joy you have with helping others greatly shows as well!
Thank you, Oscar, for everything you do... I owe so very much of my growth and latest appreciations of music production to you!
Man this is so nice to read 🥰
I really appreciate that you took a sponsored video where you could have just talked about these plugins and show us what they do, but you actually explain everything that's going on in the background. This actually makes me want to get these plugins now 😂
A Video about techniques with this Call and Respond thing would be also lovely- for me its what keeps my ear excited and my brain satisfied when listening to music. So I would love to know more about it in a more "professional way"
Oscar explaining this concept would be really nice!
I'll see what I can whip up
@@OscarUnderdog This would be fantastic
Just listen to blues guitar solos.
You know that feeling you get, when "it all comes together and makes sense", that feeling of suddenly being more aware of the potential you have at your fingertips??????
THANK YOU for helping us KNOW stuff....... no joke.......!
Asmr got nothing on this feeling.
My favourite type of comment, right here :) :) :)
@@OscarUnderdog positive feedback loop 😊
sounds like absolute heaven, youre one of the few music production channels I really like, you really seem to care about teaching and not just grifting, youre awesome!!
This is fucking dope, you sold me. Not just on shaperbox but to dig into more of your content.
“Completely flat, no movement at all”. Hm, sounds exactly like my life! 😂
It's always difficult for me (and painful ) to go all the way through a 20 min tutorial....but not in your case. So much interesting and practical knowledge and tips...You have a rare gift (as a "teacher") to make your "student" interested and inspired.... and one more thing to wrap it up: You are a walking contradiction of a saying "Those who can do....those who can't teach". Thank you and all the best from a cooold Poland🙂
Thank you for this ☺️🙏🏻
My favourite thing about this are your dance moves my guy
😂
With the addition of ReverbShaper this week, this may have become one of the best in box sound design toolkits.
Thank you for repping the shirt!!!
🧡🧡🧡 thank YOU for making such sweet merch & tutorials 🧡🧡🧡
two things . . .
- SOLD, you single handedly sold me these plugins, really amazing, especially the all in the box feature.
- Secondly, i love the way you created the bass, simply thinking about the rhythm first. It's so obvious and nothing you dwelled on, but it's my biggest takeaway from this video. My basslines have improved immediately, in a big way.
thanks so much. I really love all your vids mate, and i'm so glad to see you with sponsors.
Two tools, two techniques. Two techniques, two tools to make textures. Sweet
100% a techno lyric
Oscar this is brilliant. In the 80's I obsessed on The Art of Noise, and have wanted to create weird beats out of just noise ever since. But how? You know the song "A Time for Fear"? I had a nightmare based on that noise rhythm, and I want to go back to it. I want to create it in a DAW. Not long ago you taught me how to use a vocoder with a noise oscillator, which was great, and now this. Your channel is the best thing on UA-cam for me. What a treasure trove. I've been on a personal quest for what you have shown here. I'm picking up this VST for sure, and you provided a beautiful kick start lesson. You're a great communicator. You make the impossible suddenly easy. Thank you!
Wow, this comment means a lot, thank you :) :)
Revisiting that old noise dream sounds like the start of a HP lovecraft horror story though 😂 be careful!
@@OscarUnderdog Wow I like the sound of that. As artists we are trying to become moved, and record the feeling somehow. And a lot of people like to be haunted so...
@@samueldecker2406 #truth
Horror is an entire genre of entertainment after all :D
Best video so far award ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
THIS WAS SO MUCH FUN
😁
Ich habe mich zwanzig Jahre mit elektronischer Musik beschäftigt, aber es nie richtig gelernt. Dieser Kanal motiviert mich, mein Potenzial endlich freizusetzten und der Welt (oder zumindest den Dorfnachbarn) zu zeigen, was ich kann. Danke!
I appreciate this :) thank you!
yes, i love this new option....
Man that's super awesome, I can watch this video I mean listen to the music here for days
Amazing man! 😃 love this!
Ooh not sure why i did not see this one before. I'm so in love with Shaperbox! such a handy toolkit 👏Also the way you approached the tutorial is pretty cool Oscar!
Shaperbox is probably my most used tool. Great tutorial!
What a fantastic plug in. Excellently explained.
the editing is hilarious man its 4am and i chocked on my spliff
Shaperbox is awesome. I needed this. Thank you
the dance in the beginning earned you a like!
hahaha watched this at 6 in the morning, laughed out loud..
Dude, you legitimately feature the best educational channel for electronic music out there!
Congratulations Oscar! We are 102k puppies now! Great video as usual ❤️✌️
More and more every day, it's crazy! Thanks!
Your tutorials are so unique, I love them!
This demonstration was ridiculous... ridiculously amazing! This was so informative and much more than expected, especially when compared to other vids, thanks! Subbed
Really like the way you break things down. Really helpful.
i love this guy
Great vid! Love that plug-in. Will definitely be picking that up. Lovely work!
This plugins are mind blowing. Thats for presenting them! :)
really interesting result ! bravo!
es-tu francophone, Oscar ?
This is really f__ng good Oscar. A genuine thank you for igniting our minds with your tubes!
Cheers Stefano :D
Another excellent video Oscar! Just the variation of sound I was looking for! Going to try the demo for sure! Always feel so inspired when you’re showing these tips!
So cool to read :)
@@OscarUnderdog purchased! 🙃
Seeing your modular getting more visibility in your videos lately. Also seems more and more techniques and ideas your addressing lately seem to be things that are typical with modular setups.
Very cool to see you translating that to a daw!
Great video Oscar, awesome sound design tools and concise explanation - i loved it!
Cheers :D
I like the term "happy accidents". I'm using this as the name of my next track. I've not played around with the drive section on Shaperbox yet. That effect on the kick is awesome. Instant Groove! So glad you made this video. Thank you!
Super super bon tutoriel (guess you speak french as well) aussi bien du point de vue technique (utilisation de l'envelope follower) que du point de vue créatif (sound design). J'ai acheté Shaperbox 2 avec l'ensemble de ces shapers et j'avoue trouver de nouvelles perspectives chaque fois que je l'utilise. Je l'utilise aussi bien comme outil de mixage (compression/saturation multi-bandes+side chain) que comme outil créatif. Et là le champ d'application est énorme (rythmic, timing, pitching, filtering fx...). Merci pour cette vidéo 🎥
This is a wonderful video. You teach the underlying principles and techniques. By demystifying the plugin, you also show how to use it fully, so Cableguys must be happy, too! Plus, it teaches us more about composing and production. Cutting down on instruments overlapping in frequencies is something I'm working to improve on. Educational and inspiring!
Lovely comment, thank you :) :)
cableguys are the business. great video, again. love your work.
Awesome stuff! Just got Shaperbox, so this was a valuable lesson right now :)
Thanks!
This is such a great Tutorial! Endless possibilities ... also the noiseshaper is so on point
Your Tutorials are hands down the best on youtube. Thanks for all your hard work.
Bought noise addon , tnx Oscar 😎
Very helpfull
Your taste/sounds/vids are right up my alley....
Best channel on UA-cam! I really love the way you explain things and you have a really kind personality, very charismatic
nice groove :)! thanks!
Love your vidéos! You're so good at teaching man!!!
Thank you!!!
Always great content, thanks 🙏🏻
Thank you! Very helpful and inspiring
Thats the most groovy video these days, well done!
Love the vocal intro. Another great video. Thanks Oscar!
All your tutorials are great, but this one goes beyond that! love it! I knew envelop followers and complex LFO, and have cableguys already..but somehow got lost in their tricky "time" feature and lost interest- You showed here, how I can achieve with the other, simpler features and good piling of it really nice, organic textures- really groovy! Great example. I still don't understand how the brain merges all this layers and says that's "groovy" but it definitely happens for me. Cableguys gets another chance!
Indeed time is a very tricky one!
Dank je voor alweer een goeie tutorial. Top! 👌🏼
Great technique ! and a great plug in !
i loved this!! so happy i found your channel
i already subscribe after watching 8 videos of your youtube channel, i found you a really awesome teacher and person. Greetings from Mexico
Great dancing skills 😎
There is no mistakes, only happy accidents..😁🎨🖌
Amazing...ive had shaper box for some time now and never explored it in this way...loads of ideas now thanks for sharing :)
Thank you! Very cool tool, very cool loop!!!!
Amazing explanation because first you introduces Adsr enveloppe and complex LFO to make it understandable how this plugin work. Many thx.
Love the channel man!
Gladly i already had the plugin ::D
I really like the playful approach, particularly that last swung element topping it off. I've heard of the cableguys effects but not seen what they can do. I can see that Shaperbox alone could quickly produce some wildly dynamic, atonal grooves. Couple these with say Cthulu, I think the possibilities are very exciting indeed.
Brilliant. Really interesting. I really want that plugin now! :)
Love you!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Hi Oscar,
as a Reason10 user it's always interesting to implement your concepts in the reason world.
So big thanks for inspiration!
Thanks for the vid and giving some ideas for inspiration
Time to update my ShaperBox ! thanks for the great tips
This is amazing and is exactly what I need for the type of techno I want to make. Thank you so much!
I really like it! Great tool!
Very nice vid man! Thanks!:)
Saving this one for later!
Hello. Thanks for the nice video and lesson. It's always good to hear some modulation over noise.
Complex LFO looks (and sounds) a lot like MSEG envelopes and some sort of filters. They are very useful, indeed.
Thank you, Oscar, you're one of the best teachers in my life.
As always, the generated tune is the bomb. The tools sounds fantastic, checking them out.
I love that little dance. Could you do a tutorial on that?
😂🤷♂️
Great video, shaperbox is one of my go to plugins.
This is a really, really good tutorial.
Mind = blown
Also I'm listening on monitor level hifi speakers and 120W / channel. Sounds amazing.
Atonal rhythm + vocals + abstract/minimalist synth layers = next pop wave
Cool video! It would be interesting to see how to make the same technique just with Ableton Live stock plugins and clip modulation since Ableton already got almost all of these tools and the ability to animate them built-in!
Is that a Stranjah tee? Respect! Your videos are so good mate, I always come away with some sort of inspiration. Cheers x
Great Tee!
Nice vid I've already got shaperbox but it seems I've been under using it I will definitely be getting the noise add in
Damn this channel is pretty great for the value you’re providing for free… keep it up 👍🏻
Siempre grande l'Underdog!
🤘😁
Devious machines' noise thing is also pretty cool
Great job!
Thanks for sharing, bro!
Absolute legend! 🙏
This channel is pure gold 😎
Dankjewel Jeroen 😁
1:13 the new late summer clubbing hit. It has to be^^
White noise under an envelope is just a hi hat.
Cool video man. Ill check out cableguys
