- Altstadt Echo is back for another visit in our Berlin studio. This time he teaches us how to create classic dub techno chords, by only using Ableton live's stock plug ins. However you should be able to create the the same results with any kind of polyphonic software or hardware synth you can get your hands on.

Thanks for having me! Hope this is helpful to someone out there, feel free to comment with any questions, etc. :)
Thanks great explanation! This chain is saved in my Ableton now as "Altstadt's Echo" ha
Wow stumbled across this great tutorial and then discovered your channel as well. So many great tips and insights. Thank you so much.
Really Great! Thanks so much!
This was super helpful for me as a beginning producer. Thanks! In addition to learning about the basics of the dub techno sound, it was also a great introduction to Ableton Push.
Love your channel brother. What name do you produce under?
Lovely to see Felix Fleer on here, proper techno scene guy hosting the tutorials!
Great tutorial on a classic sound that never gets old for me!
I have also had success using a bandpass filter where Altstadt uses a notch filter. I find that I like to play my chords low (lower than middle C) and move the BP through a higher range so that all you get are the crackly remnants of the higher harmonics.
the day you find that and you really get it moving and picking out the resonance is good isnt it
AUUUUUYYYYY that’s DOPE
My god ! I didn't know we could move a device in the chain that way. That makes my day !
This gentleman also has one of the best techno history channels (yes, history channel) on CZcams, called Dub Monitor.
the push2 is simply beautiful.
What I want to know it how they make those soothing crackles. But this was a very helpful tutorial!
This was inspiring! I've just started learning the Push 2 and this gives me great hope for what it can add to my production workflow. Thanks! 🙏
Nice one, two great producers right there
Who is the second one?
@@dalaigalama Felix Fleer
Just getting into Live and Push. Love this channel, it’s so good. Things are a hit different from Kat time I made music with an Atari and Roland JD800!
dude i was literally just going to ask on mr echos own channel wether he produces and wanted to make a production video anytime soon and then i randomly come across this.. cosmic
The algorithm works in mysterious ways :D
sehr gut******
Damn, like I’m sitting with friends in their home. Nice tutorial
Great!
Thank you for this video 🎶👌🏻
Das good
Love you from Ireland and Canada ❤️
Thanks for all the computer shit.
You guys Rock 💪
Amazing!!! thanks for this
Actually the mouth sound at 8:55 sounds like an actual good fx to put over that chords hahaha
dub monitor dude!
Hello, ✌️
I just got Hooked into the DubTechno “Winter-Basement” Sound in the Chords…
I Just got into DubTechno, basically a month ago and I admire that “Sound” in the chords….. Is there any Name / nickname for this amazing Sound ???
Because I love the more Monotonous DubTechno where this Sound is more consistent and the Beat is regular 4/4 , and not something too crazy, so I can find more of it maybe by Googling the name of the sound.
And one last thing: Can someone please give me few names of Good DubTechno artists? Or tracks? To begin with 🙂
Thanks In Advance !
Maybe check out Maurizio, Deepchord, and Yagya
Basic Channel, man!
Nice and easy tutorial! The chords sound very warm and organic. Subtleness is key here. I am going to try that with my analog equipment, which will be a lot of fun. Without randomization options this can get boring, though. Is it typical for dub techno that chords are changing only so little? I wonder what happens if you insert more melodic variation...
Really depends. Very early dub techno was highly minimalistic and tended to have very simplistic chord progressions. Over time people have experimented with having longer patterns, etc. But in general I'd say the more variation you can achieve through modulation the better. When I'm working on tracks lots of times I'll have LFOs of varying lengths affecting many many different "knobs," whether it's on the synth itself or the effects that follow it.
Dub Monitor Thanks for the insight! My ambient approach on music is quite similar, so I'll have „translation“ going on soon.
Whats the name of the song at the end of the video?
It's a mashup of Altstadt Echo - Watch a Moth Drink Tears and Because We're Carrying the Fire
Next video finish the song :-)
I remixed all my Dubtechno tunes from a few years back. They all sound wicked now, please give them a listen!
No thank you
no!
synth controllers seem more like the Sci fi computers than anything else... was Mr Sulu really just setting the enterprise to autopilot and remotely DJ’ing a holodeck rave?
Both
there was no holodeck on mr. sulus type of enterprise...
@@tomtubby No holodeck? I thought they were only exploring to add more content to the holodeck library?
@@PooNinja No they were old shool, they did it for the sake of human empire... O_o ...TNG was pleasure addicted. ;)
@@tomtubby 😂🤘🏽
10:30 Now explain the difference between a phaser and a resonant notch filter with a LFO. 😂 OK I know it’s a little more complicated but a phaser is basically a multi-stage notch + bandpass filter with an LFO, so it’s funny to hear them say: (1) Add an LFO, then (2) add a notch filter with an LFO, then (3) add a phaser. That’s a lot of LFOs. But seriously there are a lot of different phasers. The average phaser like an MXR is a bit fast, but there are nice pedals like the Dreadbox Lethargy which are really good for an autofilter-like effect. But y’all are just playing around in Ableton so nevermind!
He doesn’t sound like a “Altstadt Echo”.
Meh. The chord is too low, needs noise, needs upper harmonics, needs a vocoder processing.
Rosja to zawodnicy... Mmm
