    Straight fire 🔥 all around. That groove is killer. Seriously, every song you come up with for “how to make a song like...” belongs up there on the charts with the artists you emulate in order to educate us! Masterful work Austin! Btw, was that your actual voice doing those high runs at the end? If so, impressive. If not, even more impressive, lol 😂

    Great Tutorial. By the way, could you please make some more full pop production walkthroughs? I really love the live stream you did a few months ago about it. It really helps me since the production methods you talk about translate well into any Daw since I'm working with Ableton. Also, is there a free pack on your store?

    Great video! I've never used Cubase and I've always wondered watching your vids... where does Cubase's stock eq that you use come in on your channel strip chain? Does it come in pre all the inserts, or post?

      It can be pre or post insert and pre or post fader! You can swap the channel strip and EQ however you want.

    if you wanna stand out, you can't make music that sounds like something that's already been on the charts. that's the privileged of the superstars.
