This is like watching Bob Ross do a painting! Whole canvas covered with blue sky and you're like "So what?" Several paint strokes later and you're looking at a cabin in the mountains with an amazing sky! You play a piano chord that you don't know why you played in the first place - So what? Several mouse clicks and render in places later, now you got something that sounds incredible and that John Williams might want. 😁 🥧 🦃 Happy Thanksgiving!!! 🦃 🥧
If we would make "Guy bounces an midi track, reverses a copy of it and crossfades the two" into a drinking game, no one of us would ever see the end of those videos ... :D Cheers, Guy! BTW: This time you seem to have overlapped the two copies significantly in reverse phase, resulting in a notable drop of volume during the crossfade. Interesting, never thought of that!
Nicely done Guy! For people who want to get into sound design, but whose DAWs don’t have as good sound design capabilities as Cubase or Bitwig Studio, I recommend the free Kilohearts essentials collection of effects plugins (34 and growing), which includes reverser, tape stop, distortion, pitch shifter, frequency shifter, filter, delay, reverb, etc.. These can be used as standalone plugins, or they can be used as “snapins” in one of the Kilohearts snapin hosts, such as Snap Heap, Multipass, or their brilliant Phase Plant synthesizer. All of these have the ability to hook up multiple controls to individual MIDI controllers, or to a rich variety of LFO’s (low frequency oscillators). The $29 Snap Heap plugin lets you set up serial and parallel effects chains. The $99 Multipass plugin lets you process separate frequency bands.
Excellent tutorial Guy, thanks for the wealth of information. I'm sure most people know this, but I had a problem that reversing all similar audio clips To solve this, I found a tip to the effect that if you go to: file->preferences->audio->“on processing shared clips” dropdown=create new version" Worked for me!
Very interesting, thank you! I would use this approach manipulating the audio from an acoustic track and superimposing the manipulated audio on top of it. It would create an organic augmentation of the orchestration.
Hi Guy, would you go with another Software than Ableton for film music? Some other DAWs seem to be better for this genre. If yes, do you have a clear favourite regarding Cubase or (the cheaper) Studio One or are both good choices?
Ableton doesnt support timecode which means you cant score films but loads of film composers use Ableton on the side along with another DAW like Cubase Studio One etc
For composition I would say Cubase. But I'd add Nuendo if you also want to do more post production etc. It was always aimed towards the TV/movie audio people. (It is also a Steinberg product and is very similar to Cubase in most aspects, but features more extensive tools for post production).
I like to do something like that at three in the morning. Sometimes when I put the headphones on I forget to turn off the speakers. My neighbors love it.
😂 I wonder if this is how aliens compose their music for our sci-fi documentaries...Just kidding, Guy! Love your on-the-fly compositions. You're the closest thing to sitting next to a composer and getting to see how composers do what they do. Thanks so much!❤
You're doing a fantastic job! A bit off-topic, but I wanted to ask: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How can I transfer them to Binance?

So we're just namedropping Bob Ross and John Williams anywhere and everywhere now, just to sound smart? I see you. :P
Thank you

I'd love to see more of this! This was awesome!
I can't believe all this time I've been using 3rd party plugins to do that pitch bend and all along it's in Cubase!! Holy smokes!!!
Its a super powerful feature
One of your best gems yet. Thank you!

found you from your music theory in 16 mins. so nice to see more genuine teaching come up on my feed.
Thanks for sharing Guy! You inspire many of us to push our music and creativity in general!!!
Thank you so very much! Happy Holidays from Texas USA!
Excellent Guy, thank you from the sunny cotswolds

Exactly
how fun, thanks Guy
Brilliant - as usual!
Simply brilliant!
6:45 Death Metal album incoming!
Guy, you most love Granular synthesis, do you? A lot of what you do here manually is what Granular does. 😊
Thats very true - I think a blog on granular would be a good idea
I'm so glad I'm using Ableton Live. Also, thanks for the inspiration.
BUT.... Ableton doesnt render in place... I mean!*?

10:07 sounds like call of duty music without the bass

Which piano teq instrument do you use?
Pianoteq 8 Bosnedorfer most of the time
@ thank you. I recently got it and haven’t settled in on a sound I like yet. Love your videos!
you've almost convinced me to switch to Cubase! What headset are you using?

Love it ....be hier...
I don't even have Cubase but watched the whole thing haha
tip: you don´t need "Black Hole".... very similar to this is the new Cubase 14 "Shimmer" FX plugin!
nice
LFO?? I recognize the term. So Cubase 14 has a built-in synthesizer?
Modulators! Low Frequency Oscilator - something that makes other things wobble
😁 well, you’re the AI nightmare 👻 ! Congratulations, love that 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Sorry mate. I don't use Cubase. Love your stuff though so keep it up.
Hello!
A little reminiscent of "Day in the Life"?
