Veil of Maya's Eclipse, especially the title track, is a fantastic example of this in practice. They are constantly changing the feel of the song by playing with the drumming.

Honestly, Misha seems like one of the most genuine dudes. All over youtube i see him sharing his knowledge and experience to help the bedroom metal community in making better music. He puts so much effort into teaching people and never tries to make a dime off of it. Thanks Misha, you're the best
I know it's been said to you about a thousand times in recent memory, but I truly believe you're just as good of a teacher as you are anything else. It's very obvious that you aren't faking your passion for songwriting, and that translates incredibly well into how you go about sharing what it is you do. Please stick with this, you're doing GREAT.
Misha is such a great guy. He is very straightforward and honest, and willing to share all of his knowledge. I went to a clinic he gave at Sam Ash in St. Petersburg, FL, and he was so humble and open that it made it a really great experience.
Glorious. Thanks man! I always enjoy your videos. I just did the professional cross grade from logic to QBase and I must say, you’re absolutely right about the drum editor. Just an absolute pleasure to work with.
I've found that randomizing the velocity of your drum hits (within a given range that's section appropriate) goes a long way with making things sound more human - especially if you like to layer drum samples. Great video guys!
The top quality drum editing and your epic guitar abilities have nothing on your truely high kwality Imovie skills. I simply cannot comprehend how someone can be so talented.
I totally agree with Misha on this. Rhythm guitars in metal are very percussive and should be aligned with the kick drum. They benefit from each other. Without making it sounding too industrial and artificial, you can actually make yourself (as a home studio producer) sound like a really good band.
As a drummer who programs a lot of drums in my band, I like sometimes to NOT put the kick drum at the same time as the guitars and play a bit with the duality between guitars rhythm and kick drum rhythm. I think you can get very nice things with this idea sometimes, that can still be very heavy. Really depends on what you want and what you need.
Discuss metric modulation (I think that’s the correct term). My band has a song that bounces back n forth from 132 and 99bpm, because 8th triplets in 132 is equivalent to straight 16ths in 99. Discovering that opened up a ton of doors for our writing.
Abuv Entertainment you can browse my channel, in the upcoming material playlist. They’re just rehearsal videos we put out. We’re currently waiting for final mixes to come back from the studio
I got very excited when I found that out. However I tend not to oversaturate my music with it when I'm writing because I'm worried my drummer won't be able to pull it off xD
I used to wonder how come tv hasn’t produced something like this in pretty much all of it’s history!! I used to dream about watching how people recorded tunes!
Hey guys Misha here, today I'd like to show you how I program my drums and make them djent like really hard, in this tutorial video I've made in between the episodes of Boku No Piku I watch on my time off
I call this musical seasoning! It's not elegant but I understand what I'm talking about! XD. Yeah this is something i've just started to do. For some reasons its requires a bit of confidence for me to do. I had to build myself up for some reason
Misha Manssor is a legend! Every video I see is top quality! Does anyone know if the drums are played to the grid (perfectly quantised) - it doesn't sound too mechanical, and has a convincing feel. I don't own Cubase or GetGoodDrums, but I own BFD3, SD2, Studio Drummer, Abbey Road Drums via Logic X. i wished I could get great sounding drums/feel, but my results aren't as natural sounding as in this video. Thanks in advance!
Badass video! How about a snare mixing tutorial? In every demo/tutorial of yours im always amazed by the snare sounds, ive figured its M&M high tuned bell snare, but id love to know your mixing chain!
This is great! Very helpful advice. What parts of the GGD Modern & massive kit are you using? Would be cool to see your selection of kit pieces Kick, Snare, Tomes etc. You should do a GGD M&M mixing tutorial! Thanks!
How can I get my hands on a MIDI editor like that for drum programming? The default Cubase piano key layout is amazingly frustrating to work with. Is it a GGD editor, or can I get something like that as a plugin somewhere?
Pretty much every daw has something like this - i dont use cubase so im not sure what this editor is called but i know its just part of the stock daw like hyper editor is in logic. The piano roll is pain!
This would be helpful if only I could get the volume balance right. Everytime I try to do some post-processing for the drums, all the ghost notes end up sounding just as loud as the full hits no matter how low I put the velocity and if I just use the out of box sounds without any post-processing, the drums just end up sounding too dry. So some basic drum mixing tips would be more than welcome. Or then just release an "EzGGD" for us noobs with fully mixed out of box sounds.
Cubase has that ability. You can have a split of the tracks on top and the midi editor on the lower half. You can adjust how much of each but never actually have to leave either screen.
Likely done by holding control and selecting the midi. This should highlight them all and then if you change the velocity bar of one, they all change at together. This works in reaper and should work in any DAW
Great video! I like what you say at the end, because allot of metal bands have that problem especially in the tech death scene. Where the song is essentially just a slew of a bunch of really tight riffs, but the song never calls back to a idea; it is just a song filled with ideas that happen to work together, but how many of those ideas as a listener can you really remember? Allot of metal bands would really learn allot if they listened to Above and Beyond, and Anjunabeats and how they structure their ideas; and essentially take a 16bar loop and create a whole 6minute song out of it, that varies through out. Same thing as Pantera, they really understood the more simple the song structure, the greater experience the average listener will achieve.
Who's gonna try this next time they sit down to write a song??
dis boy
Would you be nice enough to let us know how you got that tone out of your jst plugin ?
Right here!!
Just starting out with GGD and Cubase but man these are some cool and very helpful tricks to play around with. Thanks !
meee
I'd watch Misha tutorials all day everyday.
we need more of this

If I recall correctly, Periphery itself started out as a bedroom production project, so Misha knows first hand the stuff we deal with.
As a non-drummer who programs the drums for my band, this is awesome!
Thanks for watching!
Making an ad with tutorials, best way to promotion your plugins! this video is so useful as always, thanks for the lesson Misha! great sounding

2:45 those ghost notes are like a gentle quiet blastbeats
I love listening to Misha and Nolly talk music and production. Such helpful and talented people giving us lifetimes of information for free.

A very good example of this is the intro of Absolomb and the breakdown of it. Same accents but completely different context and feel. Great work!
Bro...please make more drum programming Videos! It is amazing! Love it!❤
I never knew Misha tutorials was all I ever needed. mMooOoRRReeE
Who knew this would be “Parabolica”
Glorious. Thanks man! I always enjoy your videos. I just did the professional cross grade from logic to QBase and I must say, you’re absolutely right about the drum editor. Just an absolute pleasure to work with.
This was awesome Misha, would be awesome to see more of these!
Thanks for watching!
Hey you, guitar guy! It’s me, Misha from Periphery!

misha production demos or gear demos are my new favorite thing.
The toms section at 11:35 reminds me so much of the diablo 1 and 2 soundtracks i love it so much
It's sweet to see this turned out to be Parabolica!
I totally agree with Misha on this. Rhythm guitars in metal are very percussive and should be aligned with the kick drum. They benefit from each other. Without making it sounding too industrial and artificial, you can actually make yourself (as a home studio producer) sound like a really good band.
WHY IS MISHA WEARING THE RAMENS SHIRT AND NOT MARK HOLCOMB IN WHAT UNIVERSE AM I?
YES! Love me some Ta Tsu-ya Ramen!
they too poor, so they share tshirts
Why would he wear Mark Holcomb?
This is fucking GOLD. I just got my Getgood Halpern kit and I'm doing this as soon as I get home.

these videos are always helpful and inspiring.
please do more of this videos please sooooo goood ! thanks a lot
Thanks for watching!
Awesome! Thank you for your advices on programming drums - me, i am only playing guitar, so i have no clue how to write good drums :D
Misha - "This doesn't necessarily sound good".... Me - "Crying tears of musical bliss"
Greatest metal band in Kick Drum history
Haha, thought I recognised Parabolica from somewhere!
His demo sounds better than my final mixes!
absolutely awesome, thanks for those examples, that help too much
Holy shit I watched this for TOO long before I realized it's a RAMEN SHIRT! haha Love it.
The fact that this became Parabolica makes me happy 😊
Great video!
Thank you Misha I appreciate you
I used to wonder how come tv hasn’t produced something like this in pretty much all of it’s history!! I used to dream about watching how people recorded tunes!
very cool ideas !
Hey guys Misha here, today I'd like to show you how I program my drums and make them djent like really hard, in this tutorial video I've made in between the episodes of Boku No Piku I watch on my time off
Aside from these helpful tips, I learned Misha likes to play around with stuff
I wander if in the future a built in drum editor is possible in the GGD software would be awesome !!!!!! Great tutorial !!!!!
Great tips Misha,thanks a lot for that,Q what i've heard your kick follow your guitar i'ts that correct?
9:31 I'm officially referring to this as Meesh-Mashing from now on
The power of motif!!👍

How in the bloody everloving fuck did you quick select every alternating hit to move the velocity down like that @ 6:47?
@Misha i need a tutorial about your Bass Tone please help us!! How did you record it? Directly to J48 or Axe Fx? And how did you Mixed it? Thanks
wait... was the intro greenscreened??
Pov: you see this video after watching Misha's new song
Are the drums heavily processed? Would really want to learn about the drum sound he got with M&M. Sell us the preset or session??
yes the drums do have lots of processing as well as probably some sample layering and parallel compression
Very useful for us noobs. Thank you.
Feel Ramens
I wanted to listen to the whole thing!
Badass video! How about a snare mixing tutorial? In every demo/tutorial of yours im always amazed by the snare sounds, ive figured its M&M high tuned bell snare, but id love to know your mixing chain!
Coming soon!
I'd recommend checking out the Periphery Studio Pass on Creative Live - Nolly goes through mixing a track and he's a beast
@@scottydogg278 yeah im gonna check that out! Everything nolly does is freaking mind blowing!
Is this P4?
Where do I find pedal chick on getgood drums?
9:28 you could call it a Misha Mansoor Mish Mash
Can misha do video starting from scratch programming drums? Would love to see that
He did a few programming videos on this channel!
GetGood Drums thanks! I’ll check it out
Can I get this Cubase template?
This is great! Very helpful advice. What parts of the GGD Modern & massive kit are you using? Would be cool to see your selection of kit pieces Kick, Snare, Tomes etc. You should do a GGD M&M mixing tutorial! Thanks!
We have several mixing tutorials, give them a look!
Maybe a dumb question, What program is he using to actually program the drums in?
I have GGD both versions and I can’t make your „goto preset” sound. :-( Even with „boost” function.
Parabolica!
14:25 sounds a bit like Atropos
because it is, another section sounds at the beginning
How can I get my hands on a MIDI editor like that for drum programming? The default Cubase piano key layout is amazingly frustrating to work with. Is it a GGD editor, or can I get something like that as a plugin somewhere?
Pretty much every daw has something like this - i dont use cubase so im not sure what this editor is called but i know its just part of the stock daw like hyper editor is in logic. The piano roll is pain!
where can I get that shirt though
Sorry, noob question - what's a ghost note?
This would be helpful if only I could get the volume balance right. Everytime I try to do some post-processing for the drums, all the ghost notes end up sounding just as loud as the full hits no matter how low I put the velocity and if I just use the out of box sounds without any post-processing, the drums just end up sounding too dry. So some basic drum mixing tips would be more than welcome. Or then just release an "EzGGD" for us noobs with fully mixed out of box sounds.
Try some volune automation!
Probably need a happy medium on your compression/limiting too. Gets it slamming but also kills dynamics.
Is that drummer software really have a sequencer in it or is that a different vst
It's the daw, not the sim
any chance of passing on the midi file? thanks
I just wanted to hear it played all the way through once.
What is this headphone?
I demand a Misha comedy hour!
Perhaps you could do 60’s and 70’s drum style samples and call it the Get Groovy Drum Pack. ✌️🤓
wish there was a way to edit the drums while in track view all lined up instead of having to enter the midi track
Cubase has that ability. You can have a split of the tracks on top and the midi editor on the lower half. You can adjust how much of each but never actually have to leave either screen.
awesome, thanks man! :D@@Awezomenis5150
How do you adjust those velocities all at one time? I've been using cubase for 2 years and I still don't know how to do that...
Likely done by holding control and selecting the midi. This should highlight them all and then if you change the velocity bar of one, they all change at together.
This works in reaper and should work in any DAW
@@SelcraigClimbs thank you sir. I will give this a try
Ye mind if I steal this riff?
misha mansoor, the arin hanson of djent
...dude can we get a short video demonstrating keyboard shortcuts and all the things you do to get through editing so fast?
Do you use an all in one PC
iMac Pro
That tatsu ya shirt tho!
DO I need to record my guitar first or drum?
Drums are better to do. Then your guitar has something to follow. It just helps with accenting.

I want that T-shirt.
T-Shirt saws please
Isn't that Mark's T-shirt?
This became Parabolica
I love riff salads
(high voice) STUDIO DAY...
New riffs are...
A bad thing?
