Thanks,
Libby and Marcel 😊 - Krátké a kreslené filmy
Your excitement and joy is contagious. Thanks again for these videos!
Hi Jon! Thank you so much and I'm glad you enjoyed watching it! :) See you in the next one.
Absolutely - I love this channel because of the excitement - very inspiring - many thanks
Anton Pickard Thank you Anton!! New Video coming soon :)
Your enthusiasm is fantastic to watch!
Thank you. :)
Some videos ago I was just about to comment and say that you guys should get into Ableton and that it would be a total mind blower along with all your recording equipment...and now, here you are with Ableton :-) Always thought, since I found your channel, how your face would look after finding out about all the stuff Ableton can do LOL... Welcome to another whole new level of sound! Thanks for the videos, once again.
Thank you Kenneth! Yes having Ableton is such a game changer. I probably make a new video using the Priezor. So much fun :)
I love love love this video! Your energy is contagious. I am going to download supermassive right now and experiment with my sounds. Thank you 😃
Thats awesome :) Have fun...
Eagerly awaiting my Geofón; can't wait to try.
You will love it!!
Thank you so much!!!😍
What a great video and what a great sound!! I'm learning so much from your channel, thank you! 👏
Oh yeah! Thanks for a really nice and eye-opener video. I would love to have walkthru of Supermassive and your other favorites!
Your skill + ablton = 🔥🔥🔥🔥😍
Thank you!!
Tapped into drone making recently! Great vid. Subscribed ❤
Very creative my friend. Thanks for the inspiration!
Thank you for watching.
You can record heart beats, but if you put it at you head, can you record those voices in your head?
hahahaha :)
Thank you brother ❤️🙏
My pleasure :)
I've just got an H1N and this is awesome, hope you do more stuff like this.
Awesome. Yeah maybe.
Very interesting here 👍🏼
Subscribed.
you can experiment further with ' warp' modes on the audio clip and there is a button:' *2' this will dubble the length of your audio file and stretch out the audiofile
Oh nice! I will try this out! Thank you! :)
Love it. I just got some cheap contact mics to play around with so this is great.
Oh yes they will work too!
Such an inspiration!
Thank you for watching! We had a lot of fun making this video.
@@FreeToUseSounds That's evident!
great stuff
Thank you!!
nice review man.
Thanks!
18:47 u can actually stop the recording and hit CMD+Z to delete the overlapped part of it leaving just the initial track, or simply drag the original clip from right to the left which would set it to the beginning. And to be honest even if u overlapped it like several times abletone still would save the whole recording from the beginning till the end so you may just stretch the clip to the right to see the complete piece from the moment you hit record to the exact moment you stopped.
Incredibly inspiring video tho!
Just subbed
You are genuinely a wellspring of creativity and imagination 🔥
Best drone Sounds U could hear on youtube ! :o
Thank you :)
I love drones, just this vast, unrestricted wave movement.
Its pretty cool what you can do these days.
i really like ur spirit :)
Thank you! :)
Nice video. I really like your videos and your attitudes to what you are doing. And no - You don't talk too much, keep up the good work :-)
Ha Ha Ha okay :) Its really fun for us to make these videos and if you say so next video 5 hours :)
you are so inspiring and i've bought a ton of kit from your links. i would love some deeper dives into ableton live and mixing field recordings. also how to mix.
Thank you so much! Actually I created some amazing sounds today using Ableton and Field Recordings. Hmm let me think about how I can make a video about this.
@@FreeToUseSounds that'd be great 🙂
Big fan of LOM - hoping to get a Geofon when there is another batch from Jonas - thanks for being so inspiring
Hi Anton! I think he shipping out again. I saw a friend posting on IG. I hope you are on the mailing list for it and thank you for your nice comment.
Follow up - batch became available today which I was lucky enough to buy today - sold out in 10 min. Came back and rewatched tis video again for inspiration. So looking forward to playing with the Geofone and the plugins you suggest. Thanks again.
Fun! Thanks for sharing your explorations!
Thank you for watching Robin! :)
An electric toothbrush with a high cut & 100% reverb sounds amazing
Oh yes! :)
This is dope....thanks for sharing
You are very welcome!
brother, this was such a great video thank a LOT!
Thank you so much Tom! :)
It’s incredible what you can create with the geophone and a computer program. Thank you for your advice using plugins to sculpture sounds. I’d love to see more stuff like that. Cheers.
Hi! Oh yes the Lom Geofon is amazing and we have a new equipment video coming on Tuesday and a new editing video on Thursday. Sound design maybe next week :)
@@FreeToUseSounds Yeah! 👌🙂
Awesome vid! hey what mic are you using at 2min? a Geophone? couldnt see it on your list.. cheers
Yes, thats the Lom Geofon
You are awesome man! Thx for ur inspiration. and yes, plz more tutors like that)))
much love :)
Thank you for watching Dennar and I’m working on a next one :)
@@FreeToUseSounds Thx, can i ask you about all that plugins? For example DSK_Drone_Pad seems not preinstalled in Ableton, same with Granulator II, where i can find them?
@@Dpower oh yes I found the DSK drone pad on another CZcams channel. I’m not home yet but search for DSK drone sounds on CZcams. He does really cool techno beats. You find the Granulator on the Ableton site.
@@FreeToUseSounds OOH yeah, found on @dennisKane channel Dsk Drone. Then tried downloading Granulator from Ableton site, but button for download is disabled :D so tricky stuff actually. A have Ableton 10 Live suite, but can''t download.hmm. Thank you anyway dude!
@@Dpower Yes that was the one. Hmm really the download is not working? It’s Granulator 2. I check when I’m back home. It should easily load in 10
Cooles Video. :) Wo gibts denn das Shimmer + Reverb adg? Ich hab zwar Valhalla Shimmer, aber ich finde das immer etwas fummelig, einzustellen. Glaube das Ableton-interne selbstgebaute wäre einfacher zu bedienen.
Hi Mex,
Ohh I have to look where I got them from. It was part of a free package.
When you click on your recorded track you are able to retrieve everything 🙂 it just looks like it overwrote it but that‘s not the case.
Nice video 🙂
Ahh thank you so much! I did not know that and remember this for the future.
@@FreeToUseSounds You are welcome! Another very nice Reverb for sounddesign is Orilriver, you might want to check that out!
Also for more complex and evolving drones Look into assigning an LFO to fine tune or play with random pitch parameter 🙂
The Grain Delay is very nice too when using it in a parallel rack
lilDaveist so much great advice. Check the reverb our right now and tomorrow I play around with LFO.
@@FreeToUseSounds much love. Sharing is caring :)
@@lilDaveist Already on it :)
Cheers! Keep it up! I've just downloaded Valhallas, will find em useful in upcoming projects!
Yeah! And that's why we make these videos!! It feels so good to know that it was helpful for you! :)
You should also try your samples in abletons convolution reverb plugin..
Thank you Erik! I check this out! I have the Priezor here so maybe I make a new video with that device.
Oh that Priezor looks very interesting and I'm looking forward to watch that video 👍
@@Erik_Torstensson If you like to take a listen I do have already several libraries releases with the Priezor. It's on my Bandcamp account. Let me know if you can't find it and I attach you the link.
Thank you a lot for this beatiful video. You inspire me to make drone music.
Ah that is so nice! Thank you for watching
Very cool. Shame the geofon is almost impossible to get my grubby mitts on 😢
Yeah you have to be really lucky to get one.
2:45 kinda sound like massive submarine/ship turns
Imagination is everything :)
Just found out about you through some of your free sound packs that you posted on Reddit and was amazed by how generous you were with most of them being free and all of them being only 20$ So I checked out your site and found this video and your joy and excitement in it made me an instant fan! I love what you're doing with this stuff please keep it up! I'm also new to Ableton but I've been producing music on other software for years. To make a different type of drone maybe more sci-fi or intense sounding, try creating one of those sweeping dark drones and throwing it through some distortion! Camel Crusher is a super powerful free one but also Amp in Ableton is amazing! Good Luck!
Hi Adel! Ah thank you so much for your comment and I love supporting the Reddit community. So nice you found me here. Yes Ableton is amazing and I'm learning more every single day. I have the LOM Priezor to record electromagnetic fields and play around with this. But yesterday I went to a friend who works in a music studio. Well he showed me the world of analog synth. Holy Moly. I'm trying to figure out how I could get a small Synth modular like a Korg Volca to run direct into Ableton and using my Recorder as an interface. Maybe you have some insights?
Free To Use Sounds you know, something like n this may be possible if your recorder has some kind of USB output - I’m not too familiar with recording using portable recorders, I usually record into my interface at home :) if it dosent I’m not sure how you could record it live into ableton (no pun intended haha) without an interface... also I can’t wait to see what you do with that preizor! I saw another CZcamsrs video using an electromagnetic field recorder and was super captivated! Unfortunately haven’t had the chance to try it out myself yet but I’ll definitely keep my eye out for your stuff with it!!!
Are there any other microphones like the Geofon? They are sold out. Thank you for these videos!
Hi Philip, Not really right now or that I'm aware of :(
I m looking for one too as I became contagiate by your love ... (two days ago) and all you you say meet many things I was thinking myself . But as I was saying ... making an search... this microphones are used in construction as sensor detectors. I localize an builder of this gadgets here in Brazil. They sell "sensor" separately as an spare part (and looks like yours). But made for conect to their kit. I will write to them explain what i want. Send this video as reference. May be i need someones help but Soon I will solve this !😍
And I note that are many like this made for diferent pourposes because many people learned to read the waves to solve problems. That can be used as microphones!
Sign up for their newsletter, just got mine today. They go fast
Awesome video! I'd love to see more of these demonstrations on how to creatively work with field recordings. :)
btw. you can try to put OTT on foley recordings. OTT is an ableton preset for the multiband dynamics effect and kind of a cliche by now, but OTT can extract microsounds and character from sounds. I tried it on the geofon sounds and discovered a whole other soundscape in between the hits.
also try the amp effect, which can give some sounds an interesting edge (adjust the dry/wet to taste)
another thing you can try is to load tonal sound snippets into ableton wavetable for some interesting wavetables.
Hi! Thank you so much for your feedback and I will try this out for sure! Ableton is such a powerhouse.

“A master in the art of living draws no sharp distinction between his work and his play; his labor and his leisure; his mind and his body; his education and his recreation. He hardly knows which is which. He simply pursues his vision of excellence through whatever he is doing, and leaves others to determine whether he is working or playing. To himself, he always appears to be doing both.”

Thank you!
Greetings from Wales my friend, I have a question and I am sure you must have answered that plenty of times lol but can I ask, If i were to buy your whole collection of sounds from your website, would I be able to use them for my projects on let's say youtube or vimeo? I do not plan on editing the audio but instead make my video and use your audio. Does it make sense? One example would be that let's say I make a rain video, record a video of my own but use your audio of rain sounds instead of using my own audio as I am not good at recording sounds. Would I be able to do it? Thank you in advance.
Hi! Thanks for asking and that’s exactly what you can’t use my recordings for. It’s embedded in my license agreement.
@@FreeToUseSounds thank you for clarification :) I wasnt too sure so I thought it best to ask. Very happy with you quick reply. Regards
Sajjad Khan You are so welcome :). For this kind of videos, it’s always best to record your own sounds. Makes it more authentic and you don’t run into licensing issues.
@@FreeToUseSounds Thank you Kindly :) that's what I plan on doing now. Just ordered zoom Hn1 :) I have to thank you for that as well as you inspired me to buy that :) all the best.
Sajjad Khan Awesome :)
I wish I was your Neighbour 😱
Well that would be hard because we are always moving :)
"Finally a german that is smiling!" my girlfriend said. I am German .... haha
Ha Ha :) I;m born with a smile.
"ambient drone effects"
Thats right :)
Tf is a geofôn? & how much does one cost?
Yes that is the LOM Geofon. Its around $150 but you need to act fast when it's available.
@@FreeToUseSounds This thing reminds me of carbon based lifeforms, they used to record different sounds from household objects. great video great to discover the channel
It cost 150€ + tax + shipping. It has been available today but sold in 3 minutes. You gotta be really fast if you want it.
Thanks for any helpful sharing. Your sympathetic reactions remind me of a French actor: Louis de Funès:

Perhaps using the Zoom F6 as an audio interface could help your computer perform better in rendering.
Ha Ha Ha! Oh I love Louis de Funès. I watched all his movies as a child. Probably going to rewatch some now. Using the F6 as interface is something I can try.
