I always leave these so inspired! Coming from a classical/folk world, your videos have single-handedly taken my pop production up to the next level. Thank you!
This half hour flew by. Thanks for these tips. It says a lot about you that you're willing to share these tips. God bless you! 🙏🏻

I legit hit the like button before even watching now🤘👏
Learn something new every time.
Thank you so much! Exactly what I was looking for!
I was loving your WEEKND video, now I'm watching all of them.
Your channel is great! As a band we are learning so much from your videos and using a lot of your tips for our productions! You have a fan in Italy 💪🏻🎻🎸 Little idea: we know it’s a little different from your core music context but it will be great a video on how produce songs in style of The Lumineers and similars!
Thank you for your fantastic job!
I love these tutorials. Thanks Austin.
As always, amazing Austin, thanks for this
Awesome advice!! Thanks Austin

I've been busy all these days. I'm here just to say Austin, you are one of my favourite youtuber, mentor, producer and artist.
Loved this one Austin, keep making more vids

Dude idk what I would do without you 💜
Thanks man
Being stuck with a song (well, since last night, so nothing serious), I know have some ideas to move forward ....thanks mate 👍
Bro these really have made a huge difference in my production
Awesome tips
Love your videos dude! Please do a video of how to make a Surfaces song (Sunday Best, Sheesh, etc)
great tips. some of them new for me i would say. experiments matters
Can you do a video on how to improve workflow & get beats done quicker? Sorry if you've already made one, I've just thought of this in the moment.
Thanks
That’s super interesting hearing your thoughts on how to mix while you go. I track a lot in Cubase and also try to mix on the fly but have been wanting to send out some songs for mixing...I am always lost on what to send as far as stems so I never end up sending anything because of the confusion.
very good video thanks! I'm talking to you from Spain
i love your videos
Your vids are so informative. I find that Omnisphere has just too many sounds and it takes so long to audition each of them. How do you go about the process of finding the right sound you want quickly?
What a good looking talented man
With so much layers going on, how do you make them all fit into the mix without masking frequencies or phasing issues?
hey, i think it would be really useful if you made a video showing a kind of arrangement checklist. Meaning, we get so much mixing advice on TH-cam but I'm starting to realize more that the arrangement is even more important than the mix, if you could show like making sure all frequencies are covered, creating space and fullness basically everything you need to get right in the production to be able to then get a killer mix
Arrangement is all down to the song at hand and taste. I think the only thing I can teach to help with that is how to identify what different elements are, how to use elements together, how to tweak elements to fit together, and just showing as many examples as possible. Check out some of our longer How To Make _____ videos! They cover a ton on arrangement!
🙏
Hey Austin thank you so much for another great video! Quick question does anybody know where to get camel crush? I have a version of it but the guy is not working properly🙁
Hey, one question i have. When you were saying you track organic rhythms and what not, my timing is normally off by a bit and i dont quantize it for the sake of keeping it sounding natural. But the problem i run into is when i track numerous things without quantizing it sounds messy and amateurish the more layered sounds i put. So my question to you is how do you go about correcting or avoiding an issue like that?
@MakePopMusic, I have a video idea. what if you try to make a best in for example FL Studio
Hey guys, i'm looking for cubase artist or element, do u think steinberg will do a promo soon ?
8>
Is there a chance that you could do a video on how to produce a Madison Beer Song, like her song „blue“ that’s on her new album?
I absolutely love watching your videos!
hey man could u please make a tutorial on how to make a justin bieber type song 🙏🏾? but his earlier work from when he was younger like my world and my world 2.0
this song gives me Justin bieber/skrillex purpose album vibes. do you think you can do a video about making a song of that style?
Can you please make a tutorial of how to make a music like mac miller(Like his “What’s the use” type of song)
I have a question about vocal do we need to edit and tuning every vocal specialy when working with a great singer does it need to do some editing and tuning or just leave it as it is???
I mean singers like Sam Smith or Bruno Mars who are great singers do they tune their vocal???
It depends on the song at hand. If it’s a ballad with live instruments, you can get away without tuning much. In a big pop arrangement where everything is pitch perfect, I’d still be fine tuning the best singers in the world.
What are the chords in this one? Sounds really nice!
Whoa.. Some people say don't mix as you go.. But it does seem to save time if you can handle it..
I literally can’t fathom why people wouldn’t mix as they go.
@@MakePopMusic Something to do with focus I've heard but if you can do it.. It seems a real big work flow boost..
Hi Austin, big fan of the channel. I have a question. How do you gage when there is too many instruments in the song? the amount of layers you have is super complex and for me it seems really overwhelming. Also, do you ever feel the need to highpass instruments as some of your instruments don't have it. I go to university in London and they always say to high pass but I just want to know from someone who actually does this for a living what your point of view is and if you have any tips. Cheers!!
I just add what is needed to complement the vocal. Sometimes I add a ton and then scale back once we get a vocal in. Sometimes a song is perfect with 8-12 tracks. Sometimes it’s 200. It’s just about learning, when, where, why, and how to use elements in your productions.
@@MakePopMusic Thank you buddy much love!
1:38 could u share what preset the spacy bell is??is it from Serum? Thanks so much for the video!! 🙂🙂
The tape says Omnisphere...
It’s Omnisphere! Can’t remember the patch off the top of my head.
Does Apollo x work well in win? What model is your motherboard? Add lightning expansion card? I've heard that it doesn't perform very well under windows
I have the UA Apollo with USB and it's been perfect

@22:37 how did you get that vocal? how did you process it?
Pitching, formant shifting, distortion and compression, reverb, sidechain :D
@@MakePopMusic It would really help it you made this into a small tutorial on your instagram page just showing the full process. Taking a completely raw vocal and walking it through. I try to do it all the time but it never sounds like the way I want it. I like that 'Chelsea cutler' whale sound but I'm not sure why It doesn't work for me. I use regular auto tune, little alter-boy(sometimes autotune pro) decapitator , cla 2a/76, vintage verb, and kickstart. is there something I'm missing?
Great video again and great channel, but one video a week is not enough we would like to see some great content..
One 30 minute video every week, plus Instagram, plus constantly posting and chatting in our Facebook group. Plus making samples, presets, and free content for MPM. All that on top of me working on 5-10 projects for artists a week.
