Lovely Video clip! Sorry for the intrusion, I would love your thoughts. Have you ever tried - Piyason Videographic Ventures (search on google)? It is an awesome exclusive guide for creating your own viral video without the normal expense. Ive heard some great things about it and my good mate called Gray finally got astronomical results with it.
25, 35, 48 (looking at best ways to visually analyze kick:bass and best ways to make them fit better), 53 (sampling and how it would take someone years to reverse engineer [depending on how many rounds you do]), and 89 are the ones I would recommend doing a vid on. I reckon you should make a video talking about how you you don't need the best synthesizers to get the best sounds, rather you should learn how to make a polished sound from the most limited synthesizers. A lot of people get hung on needing to get plugins like nexus and such, which isn't necessarily bad, like I use nexus all the time just because it's super conveniant, but it is still important to know how to change a sound to what you want, or what you think will sound good if you need it to. Thanks for the vid man, I watch yours all the time.
44 Bouncing reverb is probably one one the greatest tips of the list. Being able to reverse, filter etc your reverb really separates you from others, no one does it. 54 High Rankin!!!
he kinda means that some build ups consist of a note increasing in pitch with a snare roll getting faster and then the drop, and some others the intro just stops, fades into a reverb and then the drop hits.
There is a lot of genuinely very useful stuff here, Multiplier, but I'd like to suggest a few things I'd add: 11: ... Consider cutting up the various takes and build a "best take" from those edits, also known as comping. Often has to be done with acoustic instruments and vocals, and the same trick works just as well with synths, particularly if one is absolutely anal about how each note modulates etc. 35: Using MP3Gain to bring the level of an MP3 down before uploading to SoundCloud might work, so that one doesn't have to entirely remaster a track just for SC. Haven't tried this, though! And it's preferable to make a quieter master for SC in the first place, and preferably FLAC/WAV. 42: Reverb sub bass - I'd recommend cutting all side audio below 120Hz with a mid/side EQ, or use some kind of "mono making" plugin. 56: I really think understanding everything mentioned in this tip will help go a LONG way to improving one's ability to mix and produce. 66: This isn't something everyone has to do. If there's a particular genre that's already well established that one wishes to produce, go for it but try to find something unique to add to it. 75: Better still, gain stage everything so that nothing goes above 0dB anywhere. Leads to better mixes. 82: I'd add Togu Audio Line and FabFilter to that list. P.S. I'm not trying to show off, I'm just sharing knowledge and opinion. I think Adam does a great job with his videos and is very generous with his knowledge. I've been producing since 1998 and still learn things from him.
Holy hell, what an amazing video. Except that I had to pause constantly to take a million notes. One question--and I don't have the number--you mention that snares and claps should go slightly nudged left. Will this affect the groove pocket being slightly on top of the beat Vs slightly behind it? And on the subject, I've heard a lot of hyperbole on that, do you have a preference for exactly how "on the beat" you prefer a track to be, or perhaps a variety of preferences based on context? Once again, thank you for this epic video. Wowsers trousers!
Finally wrote all of these down in my studio writing thingamajiggy. The funny thing is, I've used a lot of these tips in the tracks I've created since the last time I watched this. I guess I'm not as forgetful as I thought - though - I didn't remember where I got the tips. Get out of my head Adam!
25 You can also have a solid mono sub and/or bass sound and layer in a wider (lower volume) bass on top to have it sound best on proper setups but not lose the bass on a mono system.
th-cam.com/video/xlQ9_kZ7Hws/w-d-xo.html - Tension Release, th-cam.com/video/fm_B9ZfSqZ0/w-d-xo.html Anticipation Impact, or my interpretation of the "terms". I think they refer to what happens before the drop of the track :)
could you maybe do a video on what to do if your track isnt mono compatible? e.g. if a lead sounds great in stereo but really weak in mono what can you do to fix that?
In about a hundered tips, liked to hear most of them. But 90+? kk Cant please all musical tendencies, all time, but was well handeled, things wre kept interesting... Nice set! Lots of highs! :) Thanks
Thanks, Adam. Good advice. Really interesting. Obvious why you are a good teacher you know heaps (well at least 97 things). I'd love to collaborate with you. I could let you do 99% of the work. I could name the track if you like. Why Serum? Is it the best? I have all NI synths, Arturia synths, LPX & Alchemy and several other synths (ok, nearly a million. I'm a digital hoarder). But I don't have Serum, Sylenth or Nexus. Do I really need them (do I need every single VST in the world???).
can you elaborate on headphones dry venue wet please? I produce mostly on my headphones and I'm going to play my music live very soon so I'd appreciate any kind of heads up. thanks
my top tip thats not here: sliding whole tracks backward and forward using track delay to create cohesive timing. I can spend hours playing with minor adjustments to timing because it can have such a huge effect on the feel. this is different than swing because the whole track moves back or forward together.
Could you elaborate more on tip nr 21? I've been noticing the change in volume and the change in sound in monitoring for a long time in headphones and it confuses me sometimes into making the the right decisions in my mixes. Of course loud sounds different than quiet but I can really hear it when trying different quiet volume settings. Almost like sweet spots. Great stuff in the video!!
Awesome video! Definitely learned some things, and have some new things to think about. Would love to see a video on send and return tracks VS. just putting effects directly on tracks themselves.
that kinda funny you mentioned eights i was doing a drum beat the other day it had a triple groove to it but i had to have the bar set to 8ths for the hits to land in the spot from qutoquantize during recording but a normally to get the same time of shuffle speed i have to set it to 16ths
idk if you already haveone or not but could you direct me to one you already haveor make a video on bass and ways to mix and get your bass sounding nice i always struggle to get a decent sound out of bass sounds
You have to start by choosing a DAW - Ableton, Cubase, FLStudio, Garageband, Sonar, Protools etc. I personally think FLStudio is good for beginners. Ableton is very popular among dance music producers. th-cam.com/video/AtOrDf93jOk/w-d-xo.html
"Speed... speed is good." You sure do enjoy it
"Get Serum"
i bought it already
considering this is my first time hearing of it, I'd take a stab at the answer being "no" lol@Simon Letztnahm
best tip ever

50% of the tips => good
50% of the tips => I was sonsored by steve duda
So 100% of the tips => good, then? :)
what is 50% of 97 then, half a tip?
Alvin Velasco exactly my dear friend
no it wasn't.
I have never felt more like I'm on the verge of an acid flashback.
Kristian Rasmussen 😂😂😂😂
You sir are a gentlemen and a scholar. The TH-cam Producer Committee thanks you for your service.
tip no.25 is the best one. I always had problem on much reverb each lead layer should get. Now i know. Thanks man
this video summarizes your whole channel😂
Mouje yeah he doesnt need to make videos anymore
Give this guy a medal.
Anticipation and Impact...that's what it is! You make learning fun.
This is the video we’ve been waiting for. Grazie
Get serum. Best tip in this vid
Such a good plugin, on god
so many gems dropped
Nice video, doors have feelings to.
imma have to come back to this and take notes
Amazing!, thanks dude, you've spoilt us with these tips 👍

Great video! 10, 18, 29, 38, 52, 91, 94 are the ones I think you could expand on in other videos.
It's just so good.
Can't, Stop, Watching.
Furthermore, WWSD.
i subscribed based on the first tip alone, you da boss!
Super helpful. Thank you very much!
Very informative video! Thank you!
This channel is so good. Shame you're not uploading anymore
if u have money the altiverb is a must. i used it at school. crazy stuff.
52 needs a full video
he kinda means that some build ups consist of a note increasing in pitch with a snare roll getting faster and then the drop, and some others the intro just stops, fades into a reverb and then the drop hits.
@@danielblanco7134 Spag Heddy - Oh My! has the longest build up ever.
would like some more in depth material on tip 52, that tension->release/anticipation->impact :)
Good Stuff ! Thanks...
These were some GREAT tips! I learned alot! Trying some tonight! Thanks!

Lol you talk like you know you're shit XD
Show us some music to prove your words lol
Not sure I'm allowed to as this is not my channel. But since you asked: www.blakecasimir.co.uk
I stand corrected lol nevermind XD
I wouldn't listen to it just because I'm not into techno but it's clean
BlakeCasimir totally agree.. His knowledge is unreal
GREAT! THXS!

Nice vid dude. The tip about using voice for synths. Brilliant
dense! I love it!
Superb!
Dope vid, great job
thank u this is very helpful :)
Lots of gems in here. Thanks :)
thanks for the vid!
thank you, very informative tutorial as always

hahah good tips your a crazy man tho
Great amount of knowledge in a nutshell, thank you. I don't believe he will get out of bussines:), not with this much knowledge.
52 should definitely have its own video with some examples
14 cracked me up. Nothing wrong with that one for sure.
20 and 89 stood out to me as great video ideas :)
thanks, jake gyllenhaal
Great vid fam thanks4some ideas
Could you make a series of in depth explanations of all of these tips?
Awesome video, thanks! Your humor reminds me of Jim from The Office:)
very nice video bro.
I’ll have what he’s having
😂😂
52 Tension and Release vs Anticipation and Impact - can anyone please explain?
th-cam.com/video/xlQ9_kZ7Hws/w-d-xo.html - Tension Release, th-cam.com/video/fm_B9ZfSqZ0/w-d-xo.html Anticipation Impact, or my interpretation of the "terms". I think they refer to what happens before the drop of the track :)
holy fuck that Badman VIP
anticipation and impact is skrillexs remix of humble
Gotta get some popcorn
@multiplier Great Work buddy. Great Concept too. Video required on 23, 27,, 70
The way he talks reminds me of ibxtoycat (not attacking, I loved the video)
THANKS A LOT DUDE!
Please do the dithering video!
Haha, parallel screensaver
very helpful!
23:00
What about physical modelling synthesis?
Great tips!! Thanks for this!! Its awesome to see how far you've come over the last few years!!
sooooo muuuuuuch knowledge!!!!
"all things being equal", "entropy", someone has a BSc dgree.
can you do a video expanding on tip 22, making one big/thick layer rather than multiple layers?
thank you
Cheers!
Where can i find good info on micro tuning you mentioned? Thanks for the vid
could you maybe do a video on what to do if your track isnt mono compatible? e.g. if a lead sounds great in stereo but really weak in mono what can you do to fix that?
you are so cool bro...thanks for the tips
In about a hundered tips, liked to hear most of them. But 90+? kk Cant please all musical tendencies, all time, but was well handeled, things wre kept interesting... Nice set! Lots of highs! :) Thanks
tips are accurate i wondered why you said use irc 3 or irc 4 when mastering in ozone?
Thanks, Adam. Good advice. Really interesting. Obvious why you are a good teacher you know heaps (well at least 97 things). I'd love to collaborate with you. I could let you do 99% of the work. I could name the track if you like. Why Serum? Is it the best? I have all NI synths, Arturia synths, LPX & Alchemy and several other synths (ok, nearly a million. I'm a digital hoarder). But I don't have Serum, Sylenth or Nexus. Do I really need them (do I need every single VST in the world???).
You always have me wetting myself with laughter 😂
amazing
You speak with your hands a lot. Great Tips! 👍
Would be nice to see the text version of that
fire man fire
can you elaborate on headphones dry venue wet please? I produce mostly on my headphones and I'm going to play my music live very soon so I'd appreciate any kind of heads up. thanks

Hey man can you make a video about bouncing reverb to audio?
What's everyones fave vst?
Side chain everything🤦🏾♂️didn’t know that
50 % Tim Roth
50 % Jeff Goldblum
Awesome video! Definitely learned some things, and have some new things to think about.
Would love to see a video on send and return tracks VS. just putting effects directly on tracks themselves.
When i mix, for example the drop, should the kick be the highest volume/reference of the other channels for a better mix?
SUMM OF HELPFULL TIPS TO ANY S.P. IN THE MODERN WORLD! (Or world of now 2017) : ] THX!
that kinda funny you mentioned eights i was doing a drum beat the other day it had a triple groove to it but i had to have the bar set to 8ths for the hits to land in the spot from qutoquantize during recording but a normally to get the same time of shuffle speed i have to set it to 16ths
auto quantize*
please expand on number 1pls
idk if you already haveone or not but could you direct me to one you already haveor make a video on bass and ways to mix and get your bass sounding nice i always struggle to get a decent sound out of bass sounds
you seem serious today..
Im quite interested in making music, but im not sure where to start? Can you point me in the right direction? in terms of making music on the computer
You have to start by choosing a DAW - Ableton, Cubase, FLStudio, Garageband, Sonar, Protools etc. I personally think FLStudio is good for beginners. Ableton is very popular among dance music producers.
