- A cool technique that a lot of people miss when sculpting sounds is the idea of an envelope modulating itself. I’ll explain that in a minute. But this a feature that I learned of by designing sounds on the Prophet 08 by Dave Smith Instruments. The idea is that you can make a filter envelope modulate it’s decay, attack, or anything you can think of that’s available.
For example, I can subtly make kick drums more deep and longer by having the AMP envelope modulate it’s own decay. The modulation can occur positively or negatively, and by that I mean that you could also make a kick drum thinner and shorter by moving the modulation value to the opposite side.
If you check out this video tutorial, you’ll see some examples of how you can put this to use on Native Instrument’s Massive. I’m attempting to create a Boards of Canada type synth which would typically be in the forefront of the mix.
Thank you so much for posting this. You're easy to listen to and understand. Keep it up!
Nice tutorial, mate.... Your presenting style is really good.
Wowsers!
Really good tutorial. Love how you show us all the different effects. Although I have logic 9, this was still nice to watch lol
Definitely has the BOC feel coming in.
Hell yeah my man working in session view
Thank you very much...nice video
Would you be willing to share how you got those amazing drum sounds? Especially the toms and snare sound!
Amazing tutorial btw! Thank you!
+mrflash345 Thank you! I actually have a tutorial where I made those drum sounds. The tutorial is called "Ways to trigger your inspiration on Ableton Live:.
+Twintapes Thank you so much! I've been having a hard time creating my own patches with Massive, and your tutorial has really helped me understand what each part of Massive does! I'm definitely subscribing!
I'm still pretty new to all of this stuff - I've played piano for 15 years, listened to Boards of Canada and all types of electronic music for about 10 years, and am just now getting into making my own. Do you have any tips on how to get more comfortable with Ableton? A lot of it seems sort of overwhelming!
I actually don't use Ableton nor FL, but I've seen a few people suggesting to try out the FL Studio demo first and then Ableton because the Ableton demo is limited to 30 days, I believe. If you already have Ableton then you can learn how to use it through youtube, like I did for my daw (lmms, which is actually still sorta in development but it's actually really good considering that it's free), though it is actually recommended to learn through books if possible because you have to filter through a lot of unnecessary "crap" on youtube. My daw did seem a bit overwhelming at first, even though it isn't at all, and also that I find Ableton pretty overwhelming partially because I don't use it and partially because it really is, but you'll easily get used to it in a couple of months. As for choosing a daw, it's completely up to you because if it's functional (like literally almost every single daw that ever existed) it just matters how well you can work it because you can basically do the same thing with all daws. Hope that helps.
