    That subtle vibrato is so much more amazing than people think. It's hardly noticeable in a full mis even if almost half your sounds have a very subtle vibrato to them. But it's one of those things that you don't really know are there but when it's gone you know something is missing. Just adds a nice bit of character to a sound or song for that matter.

      Also a German dude passing by.
      Have seen many people doing tutorials about different genre styles but they never completely explain what steps were done during the process.
      And your channel is like:
      Genre? Start like that: Learn the basics how to mix.
      Seen couple of videos and you don't praise billions of VSTs to buy to be a good producer.
      You say to be good: check all details, train your ears.

  • @metaspherz

    Thanks! This video, and others like it, is why YT is the greatest tool for learning in the history of the world. That's no mere hyperbole. Talented people are sharing their knowledge with others for free! We can glean so much without ever attending a physical classroom and listening to hours of padded, boring lectures -- and did I mention, for free? Okay, many vloggers have sponsors nowadays but they're NOT asking you directly for money. And even if there is money involved for added materials the value of the information presented generally far outweigh the nominal fees. But, if you do the research to get the best teacher, with the best credentials, and the best and most accurate lectures for your needs, you can get a higher education online for free and you don't have to attend any classrooms. Actual educational credits can be earned towards a GED or other degrees after testing. As a quality public education is on the decline, private education via sources such as YT can be a very valuable educational resource!

    I'm a young producer, I started out like some 2 to 3 months ago and I'm trying very hard to evolve and make my songs better and I'm realizing that I am actually getting better day by day and I'm telling 80% of that is due to this guy, he goes over every topic so slowly and in detail that its helped me like a lot and moreover he has literally free sample packs without that mail thing and stuff, like when he said that line I had to stop the video and process that. Thanks a lot man for all the things that ur doing amateur producers like me and I hope one day I can get better with ur tutorials :)

There is a lot of shit like "how to make that house dong" and there is a guy saying "first you open up serum" followed by a series of "then you go here and tweak that, about 70%" so you actually don't know how the sound works, you just copy settings and if you don't have serum you're damned xD. On the other hand I was trying once to make that funny hardbass bass sound and 95% of tutorials were saying to download the sample, while 5% was about copying an serum preset...
