Super inspirational, thanks dude
Thanks yo!
very creative and inspiring!
and bless your colourblindness
thanks!! enjoy the exploring!
Not to take away from the quality of your Videos on their own, but for me and my personal journey theyve been a great Supplement to ned rushs stuff. Really appreciate to be able to see how you do things. Keep em coming
I'm a huge fan of Ned Rush (and subscriber to his Patreon)! Thanks for being here too.
@@nicholasthayer5076 Ned uploads his videos at 1080, always! 720p is blurry AF. You must have an aversion to HD ;)
@@PanopticMotion apologies. Trying to sort out a better video resolution for sure!
@@nicholasthayer5076I hope you can resolve the issue soon. Your content is amazing, but unfortunately, the videos are impossible to watch.
@@PanopticMotion update: figured out the problem. All future tutorials will be in 1080p
this is great, thank you. I have been thinking about ways to manipulate my sounds in similar ways- hadn't thought of recording a sound to use to create an envelope without having it need to be audible - perfec!
glad to be of assistance!
thank you very much! chelesta reverberation was especially amazing!
thank you!
You have a chill voice and your content is sick - subbed!
ahhhh thanks! and welcome!
Pleasure to have found your channel and your bandcamp site. And I really appreciate what was posted on your Tetramer Album page, considering what many creators are dealing with on how to handle AI and why we might instead only search for human interaction, you/or maybe it was a write up on your music, but it was perfectly said...
"Connection is at the centre of Nicholas’ music. Connecting people with places, with
stories, with themselves. The fundamental thread that draws together all of his work,
whether for soloists, for ensembles, for electronics, for installations, for film or for dance is
‘creating a meeting place, where together we can ask questions about what it is to be
human’."
Thanks for what you are doing here and for the way you share your ideas. Most Wonderful!
thanks so much for these words! If you wanted to read more about these ideas I can suggest the book 'Musicking' by Christopher Small. Thanks for being here!
this inspires so many ideas, thank you for this great video!
especially the reverb technique stuck with me, made think that you could do a similar thing with noise on an instrument bus to add a vintage sound and still keeping it clean
nice idea that could work really well!
@idea no. 1, you could also map the envelope follower inversely to the output volume of the Echo and use that as your "compression" - for what is a comp if not an envelope follower and a vca? :) Lovely video! Really gets my brain working again - it's been a while.
Yes really cool idea. Nice one!
This is awesome, mate. Subbed
Yeeee thanks!! More to come!
really cool
Thank you!
cool stuff! please record in 1080p so we can read everything clearly next time :) Keep it up!
yep all future videos are now in 1080p.
Mega!!! Loving it! 🤩
FullHD next time?
THanks! Will try - been having some feedback on video quality so maybe I need to look at a different setup.
Cool stuff that I wouldn't have thought of before, nice, I have barely touched the envelope follower! Also: The hybrid reverb has a send knob so the utility to control the gain is maybe a bit unnecessary! :)
Nice one! And good to know on the Hybrid Reverb!
I would love to see you make a video on when to put plug ins on bus tracks vs on individual stems. For instance can I compress 4 vocal stems on a bus or do I need to compress each stem individually? Same for reverb, eq, etc.
There's no rules about this sort of thing, but instead it is more about how you're thinking about these channels. I would usually EQ each of them separately but then if I am thinking of 4 vocal stems as one instrument (for instance if they are backing vocals all singing different harmonies) then most probably I would compress them in a bus. Likewise a double tracked lead vocal. But a lead vocal I would compress separately from three backing vocals. Hope that makes sense!
@@nicholasthayer5076 right on! Yes it does.
More of this?
do you mean more videos? Or specifically more videos about the Envelope Follower?
@@nicholasthayer5076 Second. I love E Follower!
Ableton Live 12?
yes this is on Live 12.
Are you joking? Uploading a 4k video squashed down to 720p?? We can't see what you're doing!!! Added to the beginning where the music louder than the voiceover... you need some help in video production.
As mentioned below, yep. I’m not a video guy. I make sounds go bloop. This video is 1080p. I’m working on upping the visual quality.
