If we join your patreon, would you listen to our tracks and give us some ideas on how to improve?
When this channel uploads, you already know it would be a new discovery in music production
😊
I've never produced a song in my life but I can watch your tutorials any day of the week
💙💙💙
I love the terminology man I learn so much every time you upload
🤗 I feel the same waaaaaay Alex!
29% improvement confirmed
I've always had a problem any kind of learning that is even remotely structured And, unfortunately, this includes music tutorials. While i have absorbed a lifetimes worth of useless general knowledge from random sources, i have never remembered what i set out to learn. That is, until now. Because there is just something about these Underdog UA-cam tutorials that i find to be exactly right for me and whatever my learning problems are. And in the months since finding this channel my techno has come on more than in the previous 30 years! Now, how about some Drum 'n' Bass lessons as well ? ;-)
Sick, so happy to hear this!
I def can relate to this. Plus your project files on the patreon are the cherry on top: we can follow along your tutorial with the same project running. Game changer. Thks!
This final tune is so beautiful, loving the channel. So much usable and implementable knowledge, a real step up for youtube tech channels 😎
Great to hear m8, it is indeed a sick channel for techno tutorials. For dnb, maybe check stranjah or dnb academy
@@OscarUnderdog DnB please!!
This channel never stops amazing me, as a sound design freak, these videos feel like heaven.
:) :) :)
Wish I met u years ago I’d be in production heaven by now!
😇
Every time you upload a video I realize that I never stop learning, awesome!!!!
That kick pattern is gold
this is one of the coolest production videos i’ve ever seen, i’m so happy i found this channel
There's no such thing as this channel in youtube, thank you Oscar for being consistent bringing us amazing almost never seen content
You're very good. Thank you for your free insight. You keep reminding me that modern music production is about stretching the technology in unique ways. Core production imagination trumps any plugins for distinctive sounds and satisfying listening.
Awesome--as always from Underdog!
Moment I heard the chords I was taken back to Jubel by Klingade. Classic house track.
I'm pretty new to producing and I have the Live Suite, but I had NO idea there's a thing such as resonators. They are crazy inspiring and I just started a new track. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us, you're my favorite teacher on UA-cam. Keep up the good work, I just KNOW that this channel will be at 500k+ subs in a couple of years. Just thank you
😁💚
you have without a doubt the best production videos ive been loving them
im new to music production and i have binge watched so many production videos and your channel is the only one that i still watch on the regular. You always have great content and present it in a great way.
I appreciate you 💚
Awesome stuff as usual.
Sometimes I lay in bed and listen to videos on youtube, I am unable to listen (just listen, not watch) any music prod videos, but yours... your voice is relaxing :D
🤣💛
I might change my DAW from FL to ableton just because your teaching skills is top notch my man
I was using Ableton for many years, but recently moved across to a combination of Reason and Fruity Loops. IMO, Fruity Loops just sounds WAY better. Plus free updates for life! But i guess you can either start in one DAW and then bounce stems across, or just sync as many DAWs as your computer can handle. I have come to think that Ableton is best at time stretching, but over-rated other wise. And maybe it's just like Facebook in that it's become the one that people use, just because it's the one that everyone else seems to use. I'm just saying, i think you already have the better DAW in many ways.
@@dondiegodelavega1695 I hate how you have to construct a song in FL. It feels completely the wrong way around somehow. But for coming up with great sounds and quick ideas, FL is king. I then bounce the stems over to Reason for everything else (including syncing my hardware). Over the years i have learned to hate almost everything about Live. But if it works for you then carry on! :-)
Very helpful for creating the body of something great. Thank you
Amazingly clear! Thanks again for sharing
So perfect for what i've been trying to figure out. I don't know if this is going to get me exactly what i want in some of my work, but with this technique, i'm by far a few giant steps closer. Thanks a lot, and subbed.
Great stuff as always, Oscar! I'm looking forward to the time I have time to take your class.
Learnt so much in such a short space of time by following your videos, thank you for taking the time to do them
It's beautiful. What you created has a Basic Channel vibe to it with a bit less crunch and reverb. I like... Thanks for another helpful tutorial.
OMGNESS! This is absurdly amazing! Thanks a lot man!
really really good video. Opens up a whole new spectrum! thank you so much! Learning a lot from your channel
Amazing trick , your sound is like Paul Kalkbrener , congratulation ! A great work !
Inspiring videos man. Well explained and I learn so much from them
Yes, great way to start the week!
Happy Monday 😁
Really cool! Thanks for sharing!
Amazing creativity! Thx
Amazing mate. I wrote Psytrance for years and would have spent hours programming this note by note. Damn that's a great idea I would never have thought of. Thank you.
Awesome! Thank you!
Thanks, this was super useful! I've automated the old resonator in the past, and I don't miss the process 😅
Great stuff. Easy to follow. Brilliantly explained. Love the effect. Thank you!!!!
I am doing your stuff on MPC - i am happy with results. Peace!
Much much appreciated for sharing your great knowledge.
Great technique! It creates a very original sound, thanks for this video! 👍🏽🔥
Awesome-- I'm using this immediately-- thanks!
Hey man, I just wanna say you changed everything and re ignited a spark where i stop waiting for happy accidents and flipping presets and brought me back into the passion for sound design. the quality of everything has made massive improvements since i found this channel. and on top of that i hate watching tutorials and now i find myself often just watching urs from start to finish and get so inspired and dive into ableton. thank a lot homie I think I speak for everyone when i say your impact is greater then u can realize. :)
Always brilliant 👍👍👍
No YOU're brilliant
Excellent lesson as usual. Very helpful. Thank you 🙌🏼
awesome love it, big fan of yours
Oscar, the gift that keeps on giving. Thank you so much for your channel, your Videos are by far the best out there, your teaching deserves an Oscar😉
Amazing skills !!
thanks men your techniques are incredible , thanks for sharing
You guys are AMAZING! Really appreciate your delivery on all your videos, just straight to the point production techniques for those novice/hobby music makers out there like me. I keep coming back to your content for how to make my productions better. Thank you :)
Thank yooouuu!!!
Amazing!!! Thanks a lot!!!
wow ! really exciting! thx a lot
Whoo I've been trying to do that from your preceding video. Pretty cool to see how you do it
Awesome! Worth trying spectral resonator one more time :)
12:41 what a purity!!! 😃😊
Very good technique! Always learning with you!! Greetings from Spain 🎉
Underworld reminder.
very very interesting!!! thank you👌
Goooooood stufffff!!!! All the way from Chicago! Thank you very much for this wonderful tip! I can’t wait to go home and try this out! 🙌🏾
Last track is fresh
Sick video man. Thanks
wow this really reminds me of the Members of Mayday type sound, like Soundtropolis. Great leason.
This is gonna sound great in some Chicago footwork
You are the best!
I was able to achieve something similar with a the Alligator gate plugin in Reason. Thanks for the upload!
Another great and usefull video 🔥
Good stuff as always bro
Super creative. Awesome
I've used this effect before to spice up more repetitive melodic phrases. Works wonders. 👌🏽✨
SO GOOD
GIVE ME THIS WHOLE SONG
💯💯💯 Great and useful tips!
Such a great video thank you! Have always wanted to know how to make that dub techno echo sound. And now to figure out how to do it in Logic Pro X! 😁
Awesome !
Fantastic for inspiration. I just hope I can transpose this technique into my dawless array.
God this channel is something else just love it...all the way from South Africa respect Oscar🙏❤️❤️
Cheers smiley 😁😁😁
man youre next level
I love so much yours explanation. I am learning so many things because I would like to join your classes quite soon.
In other hands I like choices of topics you had developed.
My kind clue: Side-Chaining (compression) or I missed..
Greetings!
Nice work! It reminds me the Mauricio's M tracks or the Basic Channel dub techno vinyls.... Really nice chanel Oscar, I learn (english too...) and enjoy a lot your tutorials.
Superb
Hey from Tampa FL! I was super excited to do this in Logic Pro, it works similarly with the stock Vocodor acting as a resonance filter. It felt like I had an actual breathing harmonic backdrop *chef’s kiss* thanks for the tip Oscar
Thank you
I have messed with the Berlín resonator in the past but never for drums…interesting…
Спасибо больше, очень полезный трюк 👍
This is similar to how I use vocoder, which has become one of my favorite things to do as i get melodies incorporated into random other sounds.
But this method you showed actually looks like it has many more options and ways to adjust. I'm pretty hype to start experimenting with thism
This is an amazing trick and the sort of creative approach that I love about electronic music. I'd just like to say that I don't agree the choice of kit on your shadow harmony track doesn't affect the sound. I could hear those hats coming through as if they were actually being played and I think ultimately that's what led Oscar to remove them because they just didn't sound good there. I think maybe changing the hats would have allowed you to keep them in? But this is just a guess as I haven't tried this technique yet...
I do agree with you there, I was a bit surprised at how much I didn't like those hats when they played :D
Truly reminds me of some Kolsch songs. Is he using a similar technique?
Thanks for this Oscar! Is there a Resonator PlugIn you would recommend?
Oeffff nice david lynch vibe going on there
Goat 🐐 thanks a lots ♥️
bravo!
Your channel is great for subtetly, which is something I think I need to work on. I'm good with music theory and composition, so I have all the "macro" elements pretty much on point. Structure, chords, melodies, so on. I always think weird subtle stuff like this is my missing sauce.
Great tutorial! I noticed you also automated the decay time in spectral resonator.
This is helpfull!!
Wow! Great video, it's very inspiring however I am not sure what I can do to get this effect using Acid Pro 10.
Let's see what we can do, although if you have any hints, it would be greatly appreciated.
Great! Is there something similar in FLStudio?
I was wondering if you could make a video on the style that Drumcell and Droid Records puts out? That would be phenomenal!
Awesome
You're Awesome.
Firstly, Oscar, huge thank you for all that you do. You have very quickly become one of my favourite people.
Secondly, does anyone have any idea how I would replicate this concept on Logic?
Thaaaanks 😁 i dont actually, maybe use a vocoder effect?
Great video 🤙🏽🤙🏽💯💯💯
I'm fairly sure on Fruity, if you're doing this you can use Vocodex and just have the synth as the carrier - not sure it's the exact same thing, but that's what just occurred to me :)
Yeah vocoders can do a very similar thing indeed!
thx
