      Mate, your videos are top notch. Could I request something on Maceo Plex style robot "voice" (aka Vangelis). Maybe I should just do a 1 on 1.

    You're one of the few producers who has the humility to just frankly explain the concept, instead of overcomplicating it and making it super abstract. Thanks.

    Friendly reminder that, whenever adding reverb to a very percusive sound, you might want to set the pre-delay as low as possible

    I like triggering a gated pink noise sound, then put my gated reverb on the pink noise, not the snare. Sounds awesome.

    This is great. I believe a lot of the 80s sounds, it wasn't even always the snare being sent to the reverb, but a gated pink noise.

    Wow. Literally the very first tutorial I followed after installing Ableton and getting used to the UX. I don’t think I could have started in a better place. Drawing in sidechain effects ‘swells’ can be used for so much more than just drums and reverb.
    Thanks so much.

    You should have put this effect on an entire 707 or linndrum drum loop to get that instant 80s (new wave, syntpop) vibe. Would have been interesting to hear for your younger audience ;).

  • @davidpetersonharvey

    For ultimate control or if using a DAW that cannot do this, you can print the reverb track and gate manually with the volume envelope.

    Can’t wait to try using this technique and digging deeper into using gates!! Your gate tutorials have been priceless. The point about using envelopes isn’t something I’d thought to use.
    Have you considered doing a tutorial on multi-band effects processing using the effects rack? Seems like an invaluable tool that a lot of producers I know (myself included) only have a surface knowledge of i.e. multi-band compression ala the Waves C4. Apologies if you already have a video on this, I didn’t see it in your catalogue.

    You’ll Align the play head at the Transient we’re trying to hear, but when You mouse/keyboard click to play.. you’ve essentially stacked that click noise with the True audio we are trying to hear… Other than that these videos you make are Very informative, clear & easy to learn.. 10/10.

    You did a great job of explaining everything, and I love the levels of complexity! I've been making synthwave music for the last year, and the weak part has always been the drums because I relied on plugins or samples. Now I have much more control over the sound and can create my own 80s-sounding snare with gated reverb-- or use it however I like for other instruments! Thanks a bunch!

    • @ModernDevotion
      @ModernDevotion 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Intruder by Peter Gabriel. Coincidentally that was the track where the technique was invented on accident when the talk back mic in the drum room was left on while they were tracking and the aggressive gate one the room mic created an original timbre that sounded like nothing else at the time. Samplers were still really new technology back then so processed drums were still the main source of inspiration.

    I don't have much in the way of musical background, but I have some science/audio background and your videos seem to click in just right for me.
    My vague, ambitious plan is to design a very simple, loop track with the things you teach here.

    Hi, nice tip! Although I rather like to use an Auxiliary for all reverbs (and no more than 2 different kind of reverbs per song) it helps gluing all sounds together..
    With the Aux you can send whatever sounds to it as gated reverb works with plucks/claps/leads etc..
    Thank you for the good work and nice videos you upload every week!
