Thanks so much for this. Lots of densely-packed wisdom here - experienced, informative, non-judgmental, instantly usable...just straight-ahead knowledge. Marvelously generous of you to do. Cheers!
This is 2008 masterclass and looks like its a masterclass from 92 or something. The video quality, the sound, his haircut, the studio... so early/mid 90s lol
Its Cubase 5. Im still using that. It very reliable and does the job, will load all old and new VSTi's and plug ins. Keep meaning to upgrade to version 7 tho.
he understands them, thats the secret, knowing your monitors, the way he feels the frequencies, brilliant! . I had a pair of them red things years ago, cant remember the name.
13:35 what exactly does the Brainworks plug-in do? He runs the mono signal of all his drum hits into that, but then what? He trails off but then says he runs it next to the beat. Could someone explain?
I think he just uses it to mono his snare,for reference/mixing purposes. Then turn it off again after. Better to mix in mono to start with. Then bring back the stereo
Its not to make the snare hit mono. its to pull only the mono info from the drum rompler... to ignore the unneeded stereo info from the pseudo room and over head panning.
Drcacawu didnt really watch the whole thing but if he was talking about drum hit's low end then yes, you dont want a lot of sub bass in those cause then they will overlap with the deep bassline of dnb and sound shitty
JungleTunes94 Yep. when they came out everyone was using those vengeance hits, long gone are the days of dnb producers going back to the real drums, know one is looking for new breaks to bring into the dnb realm, too many people going for that super clean, standard beat pattern 200hz pendulum snare stuff if some of these up and coming producers had some sense they would try and step into the scene with a bit of originality you dont get far sounding like someone else
I agree. My studio isn't anything to write home about either. Just figured someone who's made a pro career out of electronic music would have more substantial gear. If for nothing else, just to get a better final mix. Good for him though. Use what you got, make it count.
Actually you don't need good monitors for making music, you can see volume levels from DAW and when this music gets to the better monitors, then you may be surprised how good it sounds.
***** wut even? I did have a clue, it looked like the version of logic that I used to use a long time ago. I've never used cubase so I didn't know what it looked like. I made a mistake like I said earlier. There was no point on tragic mrooper calling me an idiot because phixia edm had already corrected me.
yes, everyone's an idiot. That is true. That's irrelevant to what I said. You're just picking an unnecessary fight with me due to your anonymity. I'm not commenting anymore. Bye
why the hell is he using cubase 2? That's like from 1990s. But good, because I thought that it was too crappy to make professional music (I have it in my school)
[ An absurd story ] As the God keeps everything everyone exists and functioning, **the God's Royal Son of the Sun never could be harmed by anything anyone that exist by the efforts of the God as the God will never allow it to happen.
I'm not against you religion, but I'm against you trying to shove it down peoples throats... so please fuck off and focus on being a good person yourself instead of annoying strangers on the internet.
Dear inLoopie, If you think so please ignore it. I am not trying to do anything but to remind people "you do not have to die" assuming that no one want to be dead. It has the nothing to do with religions.
***** I do not know why I cannot see whole of your comment but "And what does religion have to do with producing drum and bass? Nothing, so please...". I can guess that you are going on to say to me is something like..." not to do"...? As soon as someone mention "God" earthling respond "No religion thanks!" on this planet of dying ones? But can you define what you call "religion"? The God nor I have the nothing to do with earthly "religions". The part of this could be blamed on religious organisations utters the name "God" yet never be able to define or describe what they are calling "God" to make it intelligible for people. But the unnecessary disrespect you do to other is your responsibility to die for. You are existing with the efforts of the God to be able to make music or listen to the music. So it is all to do with the God that keeps you exist and functioning(alive). Or can you keep your own existence and beat your heart to keep your bodily functions going by your own efforts? If not you should think of what is doing that for you? I am calling that as the God. And drawing your attention to the fact that you do not have to die". You are not expected to be dying neither by the God. Be fair(good) or unfair(bad) equate life or death of yourselves.
***** Will you not read [ God != religion ] above? If you do you would see that I have nothing to do with bible nor religions. There is saying such as "Fear of God"? But if you do not know what is the "God" and believing everyone is dying then this saying can not make any sense? I will try to get you see what I call the "God" so that you may read what I posted here seriously. I hope you to see also that the God did not gift your life awareness which does not want to die yet only to die. No one can exist with own wish or efforts neither beat own heart and digest food with the stomach. When the God stop the efforts to beat one's heart the one is dead is a fact of the matters. But what the body was made of never dies. The body no longer needed decays back to the constituent molecules. [ The concept the "God" defined ] Anything just existing is the miracle beyond of our comprehension. Yet it is a knowable fact that nothing can exists without the Force to suspend spheres of electrons away from the centres. Something MUST be exerting the Forces from inside and outside into the balance for anything to be existing. Whether you like or not we may have to revive the concept which had the name "God" for this something. Ref: tenpage.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk
If anyone would ill-manor at the Son of the Son the one shall meet the response of the God in not so ncertain term with the ones own body. Anyone want or will to do harm to the Son of the Sun shall meet death for associates of the one to be warned. It is what the "Treason" meant in real.
This was 2008 btw...i reckon his studio is a lot different now ;)
His new studio looks so good, he posted it on his IG
No problem! Glad you're enjoying the vids :)
Thanks so much for this. Lots of densely-packed wisdom here - experienced, informative, non-judgmental, instantly usable...just straight-ahead knowledge. Marvelously generous of you to do. Cheers!
Yeah and definitely unpretentious. I really enjoyed and learned a lot from this. Had no idea this tutorial was out here! :)
Crazy to think where this guy is now. From that bedroom set up
I LOVE THIS MAN'S WORK!!
Compared to other music producers, especially younger ones, he seems very collected and on the point. Speaks like en engineer actually.
classic..so many memories, watching this over and over..watching it again today. along with Rusko & Bennasi masterclass, timeless tutorials.
This is 2008 masterclass and looks like its a masterclass from 92 or something. The video quality, the sound, his haircut, the studio... so early/mid 90s lol
"sample cds" definitely doesn't sound like this century
Watch out for that lamp to your left, that shit will burn your life down... Evil lights man.
16:17 dBlue Glitch. Used that on a lot of songs. Never used it only for it's gate though. Good heads-up
What a lovely plug-in
Thank you SOOOO much! This is the first dnb creating video I actually like. Why? Because its actually USEFUL! Finally!!
that SEEN sticker tho!!!!!!
absolutely awesome
Been waiting for the sub focus one since you started uploading the old ones, thanks for this.
This is on par with Rusko's masterclass - legendary
Thank you Sub Focus for sharing your tips with us!
perfect, I would like more of those videos. this stuf with ther gator was new for me
Any idea when parts 2, 3 and 4 are getting uploaded. Really enjoy the videos. Keep them coming! Cheers
Windows XP
drum ROMplers, like battery or stylus rmx, basically a VST with lots of drums and allows drums to be sequenced within the vst
gotta love the Seen stickeron the wall
blown with that ahahaha
Graffiti Addict The legend. Didn't notice it until I saw your comment! :)
I'd seen every other part of the series but it was too blurry to figure out what it was lol, forgot to look back until I saw your post haha
What happened to the solar system breakdown video?
You have so many diverse sounds...the bass here is so good. I use Maschine sometimes, do you?
KayKayTheProducer what uuuuuup!
+KayKayTheProducer Hey, it's KayKay!
love it ! thanks so much!!!!
Brilliant video loads of tips and info. Thanks xx
Its Cubase 5. Im still using that. It very reliable and does the job, will load all old and new VSTi's and plug ins. Keep meaning to upgrade to version 7 tho.
Legend
he understands them, thats the secret, knowing your monitors, the way he feels the frequencies, brilliant! . I had a pair of them red things years ago, cant remember the name.
will you be uploading the next three parts?
Great tutorial
Thanks, great video 👍✌

Its not to make the snare hit mono. its to pull only the mono info from the drum rompler... to ignore the unneeded stereo info from the pseudo room and over head panning.
Why not use an EQ Eight to get rid of the low end?
thats one of the ways to do it
Gone Lucid and whats wrong with Low End? It is what makes people Head Bang...
Drcacawu didnt really watch the whole thing but if he was talking about drum hit's low end then yes, you dont want a lot of sub bass in those cause then they will overlap with the deep bassline of dnb and sound shitty
Arkhade Okay, I didn`t watch the whole thing either :P
Arkhade Hey mate is it a must to learn sound engineering to become a EDM producer? Cause I love D&B very much and i want to be a producer
is this the guy who did the "aliens" remix for kool keith?
Is there a way to get that amen shuffle via sequencing?
If you wanna make a tutorial, do it like this guy!
What software are you using? Is it available for Mac?
is this Cubase 4?
good old vengeance samps!
The downfall of dnb, every track from this period forth was to sound the same and have the same drums.
Bring back sampling and breakbeats ;)
JungleTunes94 Yep. when they came out everyone was using those vengeance hits,
long gone are the days of dnb producers going back to the real drums, know one is looking for new breaks to bring into the dnb realm,
too many people going for that super clean, standard beat pattern 200hz pendulum snare stuff
if some of these up and coming producers had some sense they would try and step into the scene with a bit of originality
you dont get far sounding like someone else
Yo where did you get seen sketch?
guna watch em all. think sub focus has upgraded his daw yet...lol... wat is that atari....well it worked for him...big up
it is cubase
ahh kool never had the plessure..
Alessandro Marazzi You commented on one of my videos! What a coincidence to find you here!
did i lol kool... i am therefor i am.. everywhere haha
*****
I was talking to the other guy. That's why I tagged his name. lol
link to vengeance pack he is describing please
Ya this is sab facus
What the program he use?
Cubase
Wow.. Sub-Focus has crappy studio monitors. Who knew? Last Jungle is still the jam though.
I agree. My studio isn't anything to write home about either. Just figured someone who's made a pro career out of electronic music would have more substantial gear. If for nothing else, just to get a better final mix. Good for him though. Use what you got, make it count.
He has a good set of ears though. That's more important, of course.
Matt Greer
Electronic artists just use headphones and a laptop sometimes, they don't always have access to their studio and/or professional gear.
I am aware. Been producing electronic music for 15 years.
Actually you don't need good monitors for making music, you can see volume levels from DAW and when this music gets to the better monitors, then you may be surprised how good it sounds.
what is this for a programm ?
Logic. It's only for Mac OS
Lijah Manelli It's Cubase dude :D
Lijah Manelli Idiot.
***** wut even? I did have a clue, it looked like the version of logic that I used to use a long time ago. I've never used cubase so I didn't know what it looked like.

Notice he's using Windows and was smashing it in those days. Everyone goes on about Mac but it's a myth!
what a weird comment.
SEEN!!!!!
alesso?
Haha saw it as well
Learned a shitton like always. Keep it up!
Cubase/Nuendo.

Does anyone else think Sub Focus looks like Matthew from Downton abbey?
Cubase before it got too full of crap we don’t use?/?
Old Good SUb Focus :) Now = Shit !
Looks like SX3 to me

Its from about 8 years ago. Still he's probably only early 30s.

why the hell is he using cubase 2? That's like from 1990s. But good, because I thought that it was too crappy to make professional music (I have it in my school)
