Especially since r&b has been around since the 1940s, and later evolved into soul and rock, so it's incredibly influential on most, if not all, contemporary music.
Literally me when I subs "Splice" for a month cause I only knew about it, for it selection amount of samples and I was hovering around it for hours and never thought about clicking the preset option after a month of using it, and then I came across the preset selection and was wondering when did they have that option. And the 1st thing i was thinking about is "do they have for Serum?". I shit u not, there was a lot! and that caught me by surprise. I was using "Splice" for a month and never thought of even clicking the "Presets" option. Stefan, thank you so much for mentioning about this other youtubers. You are literally one of the youtubers I followed from time to time just to learn a few things about chords progression and also about the DAW(mostly Logic Pro).
brooo!!! i thank god TH-cam for putting this vid on my recommendations... just like you said: those Presets gallery on Splice is GOLD!!!!!!!!!! im so pump to createeee!!! 🙌🏽
Stephan dont know he has a 26 year old Son from South Africa. Bro u raised me, bro u taught me a lot and ur bedroom n equipment was still basic then. Thanks for growing too Dad. You taught us to appreciate what we hv a work our best with it. Love you bra.
Haha thank you son! Super happy to hear that you’ve learnt a lot from my videos and they’ve had such an impact! Makes it all worth it and I truly appreciate the support bro! Much love man 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
I'm sure you're a busy man but it's a shame you don't upload that much because honestly your videos are always the ones where I learn the most, such great content. This video was soooo helpful, thank you Stefan!
I’m still tryna figure my way around all this but when you said it I was like ok I’m in the right direction lol it was funny because I was like I don’t know how to play well and can use midi packs and then you said that too I was like 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 lol the artist I work with is going to be too happy lol
Haha that’s really good to hear Brittni and thank you for the support!!! Hope your artist likes what you’re gonna cook up with the new sounds and progressions!!
I heard Smino’s Blkswn album like half a year ago and loved it. Monte captured the R&B vibes so well on the album and now i’m actually aware for what kind of noises i like and hopefully this helps me when i produce
ajkehrgve thank you so much 😭 ive really wanted to get into making rnb and had no idea where to start, then i found ur channel. seriously, all the love you have no idea how grateful i am-
Woooooooooooooa and you talking about how nice my chord progression is on my beat "petty". Maaaaaaaaaaaan you blew me away with that smooth sine bend sound and the progression. Bro I'll always be a student of yours lol you stay dope with the r&b chords
You’ve literally helped me so much in these couple of months since I decided to pursue the music route. Honestly thank you so much, would be a dream to collaborate with you one day 🤞🏻❤️🙏🏻
A friend asked what the fuss was about Serum and this was exactly my point. Not got it yet, but want it. You can make similar sounds on Vital. But would happily pay for presets “soulect” is a really good one.
To be honest I've never really had a hard time finding leads. Any sine, triangle or square wave lead usually does the job. It's more about adding pitch bend and modulation to get the R&B vibe.
...i was gonna say your chords are astronomical ...and in fact if you listen to GUY III (Teddy Riley n the Hall brothers) "not a day goes by" Teddy uses the first sound you played and were looking for ...and when you mentioned Terry and Jimmy it everything just came full circle ...well done Bro'
For sure. This is rent to own though, so you’ll eventually own it. And I believe it still cost the same amount overall, there’s no interest added and you can pause your payments whenever, if you decide you cannot afford the payment one month or do not need it one month. Bottom line is you’ll eventually own it out right. That’s why I like this modal. I don’t recommend subscriptions/renting unless the cost is inconsequential to someone.
RnB really is like the step child of the production genre family smh. Great video and thanks for always looking out for the community! Do you think you could do a video on RnB drums? things like sound selection, different grooves/patterns and how to keep them interesting throughout the track? cheers!
After hearing how effortless your playing is I had to buy your chord pack. I'm going to learn those progressions and of course just use the midi when I'm lazy. You're an inspiration, man.
Hey man, ah appreciate your support man thank you! Glad to hear that you’re going to learn but 100% hope you found the chord progressions useful in the meantime!!! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
its pretty cool - actually that same hack (modulating the pitch via envelope) is pretty much one of the ways of making your own boomy 808 bass ...and if you dig deeper you can even make your own drums like that too, blew my mind
Tried to copy this preset but didn't get the rising note effect, until I tied envelope 2 to global pitch in the matrix section. Didn't realize how to do that first. Thanks for a great video Stefan, really cool stuff 🙌

Hey Nizzereo I was in the same boat, I saw the preset tab but never thought to even check it out. So many good sounds there!

Haha much love brother 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Maaaan,I’m so happy I found this
I recommend giving making synths when you're producing a shot for a while it really opens a new level in your production
0:15 this sound is also in LOOPHOLE II Analog Lab Bank ... is the " Brown " preset
The episode is satisfying no lie
Yo brother, appreciate it man!
It’s 4-5 days that im struggling for making new kind of songs and ur video just dropped on my feed, perfect timing man Thank you
Hey Nicolas, i’m glad! Hope the sounds inspire some 🔥

Yo Obi ah thank you 🙏🏾 appreciate the kind words and glad you’re benefiting from the videos!
Bro, you're a hero.
😄 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 glad I could share this with you!
Could you make a tutorial on typical r&b / neosoul chord progressions like the ones you played in this video ? Would be awesome - thanks !!
Hey, I have loads of these tutorials on my channel :). Head to my channel and go to playlists
Finally found the quintessential video that would give me the quintessential rnb sounds for my quintessential rnb song. Thanks!!
Haha you're welcome!!!
Dope as always bro! Chords be smoooooth!
Yo brother! Thank you man!
Never been this early❤,this channel is one of the "ASMR producer edition"
😂🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
What you said was facts. Trap & Drill has flooded the market R&B has gotten over looked.
100% that’s why I’m trying to put more people onto it!
So smooth ...so dope !!! Love them chords
Yo knock, thank you man 🙏🏾
Keep the love for R&B little bro. You do great work. Appreciate your love and respect for R&B and music. Much love from this old guy.
Much love big bro! And always!

Yoo brother! Hahaha thank you brother!!

It's lazy af but no one's stopping you
Bruh if you did, send me some of those too
🤣 I was thinking the same thing lmao
😂
You’ve literally helped me so much in these couple of months since I decided to pursue the music route. Honestly thank you so much, would be a dream to collaborate with you one day 🤞🏻❤️🙏🏻
Bruhhhhh....that first 1st preset was littttttt!!!!!
A friend asked what the fuss was about Serum and this was exactly my point. Not got it yet, but want it. You can make similar sounds on Vital. But would happily pay for presets “soulect” is a really good one.
I've been hearing a lot about Vital these last few days, I need to check it out. Synth Hacker sent my Soulect, it has some dope sounds!
Those sounds are just excellent, really got soul! Got the soul and feel that I love to feel in R'n'B.
THANK YOU FOR THIS! I too, have been looking for those R&B sines.
Side note: do you know how to make R&B some leads?
🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
To be honest I've never really had a hard time finding leads. Any sine, triangle or square wave lead usually does the job. It's more about adding pitch bend and modulation to get the R&B vibe.
@@stefanguy any recommendations?
Thank you. Great vid.
Thank you bro!
Yasssssssssssss my man 🙏🙏🙏🙏 I always come back and find gold from
You Stephan thanks you !!! 🔥🔥🔥

Man this is such a great video. Thank you for putting this together. You got a sub from me, brotha.
1:59
2:47
6:02
Nice work. Some of those sounds could make the next Khelani hit for sure.
Thank man and 100%!
thank you, there isn't many tutorials for rnb,you are right,I learn most of your channel
...i was gonna say your chords are astronomical ...and in fact if you listen to GUY III (Teddy Riley n the Hall brothers) "not a day goes by" Teddy uses the first sound you played and were looking for ...and when you mentioned Terry and Jimmy it everything just came full circle ...well done Bro'
Bro this is EXACTLY the video I was looking for.

Ooowee! And the first sound you presented was the EXACT patch I've been looking for! Thanks so much!!!
YOU'RE THE MAN
Thank you man 🙏🏾
So smooth bro. Thanks for the video.
Thanks man!
The secret, has been given, your mission is done Stefan. wow.
Hahaha yeah until I find some more dope sounds 😉
This is dope!!!! Good looking out!
You're welcome bro!
Much love and blessings to you my brotha. You are a very genuine giver.
brooooooooooo, I've been looking for this sound myself !!!!!
Glad I could share it with you bro! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
R&B beats, super underrated
No doubt!
This is Absolute Gold.
Serum is incredibly worth buying instead of renting. It just has so much

Super dope!! I play keys and its hard to find playable sounds.. well sounds that are actually phat and interesting..
my MAN this is the sauce right here. I never even thought about searching splice for presets🤦
After hearing how effortless your playing is I had to buy your chord pack. I'm going to learn those progressions and of course just use the midi when I'm lazy. You're an inspiration, man.
Hey man, ah appreciate your support man thank you! Glad to hear that you’re going to learn but 100% hope you found the chord progressions useful in the meantime!!! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Thanks for the support!! Appreciate you! 🙏🏾
I just bought serum and couldn’t find any sounds , you came in clutch 💯💯
🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 I had the same problem and stopped using it for months!
That brass synth crazyyyyyy
This video is quintessential
😄 appreciate it man 🙏🏾
I was going to ask for a whole 'nother video on the sweep synth.. Then you played one @3:36. Your reaction was understandable.
Clutch video! I'm always looking for Serum presets in a different genre as well as Splice search tips!!!
🙌🏾 glad I could share this with you man!
woooooa!!!crazy tips bro thanks 4 the info..love from spain bro!!!!! I gonna check all your material for sure!!! 💪🏾🙏🏾📈📈❤🙌
Glad I could help man! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
This sounds beautiful. This is my first impression of you and it got me to subscribe.
Much love Charles! Thanks for the sub and welcome to the channel! 🙏🏾
Quality Video man thanks for putting us on foreal i didnt even know there was presets in splice sounds
Thanks man, glad I could share this with you. I think a lot of us were sleeping on the presets!
Ayyy... completely dope work Stefan! I might have to cop me these sounds as well.
Yoo brother, hope you’re keeping well! And defo bro, they’re dope!
This is brilliant. Love when I get preset validation.
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Always love for rnb🔥

Chords for dayssss!! Damnnn bro...u on fire 🔥
Tried to copy this preset but didn't get the rising note effect, until I tied envelope 2 to global pitch in the matrix section. Didn't realize how to do that first. Thanks for a great video Stefan, really cool stuff 🙌
Oh my god man, I entered this video looking that exact sound, this is destiny
