I'd be very curious to see how you work with pattern delays after reading that other thread! I briefly gave it a try but didn't quite get the hang of it.

Pattern delays, and long ass fx-chains are two things I would love to see more of :)

And yes. Please do more <3

I'd love to see how you approach EQ.
What do you listen/look for, when/where do you cut and how much etc.

Oh..music...eh....yeah pattern delays. That thread caught my attention too, especially after seeing the vst that was linked. It looks like any thing is possible with it so would be good to see how you might approach it from a creative point (as opposed to more obvious ping-pong or rhythmic stuff) ..

I like making weird sounds with fx.. delays, reverb distortion & mod fx like phaser, flanger etc..

Sometimes it's the kitchen sink approach, but the one weakness of it can be that the sound is 'thin'.. or that I wonder whether the sound is 'thick' enough when I resample etc..

Don't know if that's worth a whole video.. but i would be interested to see a bit of sound design with fx / reverb & distortion, delays, limiting etc.. and get some wisdom on when something has enough presence to be in the foreground.

It sure if I'm explaining myself correctly.. and I.kinda know some of the answers.. but any vid would be class. Pattern delays. Convolution reverb on bass / wtf noises/ drum sound design.

Would love some reverb compression tricks or some useful EQ examples. :)

Would be awesome to know about your bag of tricks you mentioned in another post to salvage a crappy mix from a "very well known producer duo`s music who have been at it since the 90`s" :twisted:

That was Mastering stuff.
Not going to make any mastering videos
But that was judicious use of EQ, dynamic EQ, multiband compression, multiband transient processing, accel limiting, mid side processing.
Came out nice in the end, we got a lovely cut.

Don't know if you already did this, but I think it's always fun to see someone making a track from scratch - talking about various subjects as they go along.

I think that is what I will probably do, incorporating some of the above and explaining as I go.

Id second the pattern delay idea.
Or polyrhythmic percussion stuff.
I mean i get the idea in general, and i made some polyrhythmic stuff that i enjoyed, but it always felt like trial and ertor to me

Somewhen you said you would make a lowend focussed tutorial. Did that ever happen? Chances are high that i missed it

Any chance of uploading the streams you did previously? Due to other stuff going on at the time I only really dipped into a little bit of it, but what I remember was it being good.

How to fit a big baseline with a kick that sits mainly in the chest and not the guts ;)
