Hi all,
Next week I have two biggish modular videos on the second channel, one on the new Qubit Stardust cosmic tape looper, and the other on the Dnipro (pronounced dan-EE-pro) Radiant multi-effect module.
Both are cool and I had a lot of fun making the videos and making music with th...

The falling leaves tell a story: it's slippery.
This is the fruit of the project I've been working on for two months: a dive into the open-world music of Elden Ring: the compositional techniques, the methods, the instruments, and the lore.

Hey ya'll,
I usually knock out my Patreon exclusive production tips/explainer video this first week of the month but I'm working my ass off trying to get the next video finished. The last two have done terribly and I'm hoping this one will do better, it's a serious passion project.

Here's Sunday's video: A history of convolution in audio processing and a demo of ModeAudio Airspace. I like this plugin, it's nothing completely revolutionary, but the IR library is clever and the delay is well-conceived.

Steinberg asked me to do presets and a video for their free spectral synthesizer, X-Stream, and I turned it into a bit of a history lesson. Here's the history of spectral synthesis and more!

This is tomorrow's video. It's sponsored by Expressive E and it's a giveaway at Perfect Circuit for an Osmose. Osmose is the perfect instrument. Nothing else is. There is only Osmose.
Hi all,
This is what I've been working on for the last two weeks. Big video on a big synth. Cascadia felt like it deserved a lot of attention, and that's what I gave it.
There are two videos part of this project:

Hi all,
Here's the monthly Patreon exclusive video on music production. We've done compression, delay, and making music from scratch. This time we're talking about ear candy: effects, risers, drops, swells, lasers, and more.
We'll go over different types of effects, make some from scr...

Hi all,
One of my two big videos for this month is a video commissioned by Steinberg on X-Stream, their free spectral synthesis plugin. The video is mostly about the history and method of spectral synthesis with a quick walkthrough of the video at the end.

2024-09-26 18:20:42 +0000 UTC View PostHi y'all,
I feel like I haven't uploaded a new video in forever when in truth it's been two weeks tops. That said there's going to be a delay before any new stuff comes out. Everything I'm working on now is a time consuming project and it won't be until October new stuff is coming out. Her...
Hi all!
Here's this month's video on a tool or technique for music production. For this one, we tackle the effects of delay and echo: how they work, what they do, how they sound, and when to use them.
As with the compression video before, feel free to ask any unanswered questions belo...

I do not think this is a good module
I did not enjoy reviewing this module
I am only putting this out and speaking with a slightly positive voice for political reasons
I do not know if I will work with 4MS again after this
Here's the next video, out Friday probably.
I've posted the transcript and sources too.
If you have any resources you think are cool for learning rhythm, leave a comment and let me know!
