Thx Olli! These concepts are so important and not often covered here on yt. I would love to see more insights into these (tought)processes of telling the story of a track and progress further.
Nice. Didn`t really think of simply lowering the volume of the clip like you show for the question part of the lead. It does the job well. Usually i sidechain with dynamics or specific frequency EQ (audio sidechain modulator) one lead to another, which is always a good possibility, and maybe play with the dry/wet to maintain flow and glue together. But this is also nice and quick trick. Would love to see more of your arrangement/mixing strategies in future. Thank you Ollie.
Yeah, I feel lowering the volume is just more straight forward, I'm kinda lazy so makes more sens for me lool Also, I try to avoid sidechaining as I consider these compressor (audio modulator in Bitwig) are deisgned to work with "acoustic signals" that changes at every hit, rather than a repetitve, always on point fully digital signal.
Hey Ollie! Many thanks for your good hard work until now! My productions became much better since I m watching your great video tutorials. I would love to see more tips for harmonic storytelling in tracks too. A Kickdrum lib for Kick2 would be also very welcome. But if you´re more the twilight to sunshine happy Cmajor guy :-)), why are there no Vids in producing this sound? sunny greetz
a really rough guide to good Q and A is contrast. A run of short notes into longer notes, wide into narrow, dynamic to static , rising pitch followed be falling pitch and so on. This is a good place to start experimenting with phrasing.
Also Ollie If We Want To Proceed Further The Sequence Should We Need To Take Atleast One Same Sound From Previous Sequence Or Have To Create A Whole New Sound.
In my opinion completely depends on how you feel the flow is going. If you feels it's not repetitive you can take same sounds for even 64 bars but you'll need to add a lot of new things in the background. Or have things turn on or off between them. Like an lfotool gate at the end of 8 bars and macros.
Nice one Ollie, do you know if it is easy to create something like STING!64 M4L device in the grid? I have used it a lot to give me random ideas to quickly generate bass patterns in ableton.
@@olliepsy Yes, it's me right here. It is indeed this simple device, i'm new to bitwig and i'm having a little bit of trouble reproducing the same results, I tried your sequencer which is fantastic but I can't get close to it. Sorry for the delayed answer! Here's a video showing it the same way I used to use it (6minutes): czcams.com/video/JOAKpAJCi0c/video.html
Hey Cylith I actually did, check my Gumroad : olliepsy.gumroad.com/ As it's Black Friday, till the 5th of december if you buy the Psy Kick crashcourse, you'll get the Twilight Kick & Bass preset pack for free :)
hey Ollie, this really does not sound better than stuff Hallucinogen or Infected Mushroom or Talamasca etc.. was doing 20 years ago. They had very limited tools but they were still able to make this stuff. You have the amazing Bitwig and yet you're only using it to try to copy something from 20 years ago that people did in Cubase VST rofl. When I hear your bassline @ 2:05 I immediately have a bad reaction because it sounds so cliché, dated, conservative, and uninnovative. You need to go in a different direction and be more innovative instead of just trying to make the same ideas everyone already did.
dude, thats the point of the tutorial, "Things I wish I knew when I've started producing". It is supposed to be showing basic concepts and techniques. I think you just wanted to be rude for your own reasons, but even so Ollie replied to you very politely. please take your sarcasm and negativity someplace else

I would love to see you do a kick focused course. Your bass course has been super helpful to me.
Great video as always! Suggestion for a future video in this series: How to produce a full arrangement without having 80+ tracks in the end :D
Impossible 🤣
but could be fun, efficient arrangement or something like that x)
Amazing ollie! Keep doing it!
Thanks, very inspiring - this actually makes me want to go and build something new ASAP 😁
Great! thanks again for sharing! 😍
Awesome

Wow. Thanmkyou.
Nice one Ollie !
One day since upload, 1.3k views! Yeeee good work.. I wanted you to make this video, my prayers were answered 🐶👀🍄 onnn point thankyou 👉
nice bro , thanks !!
Genius move!
A Kick2 preset Pack would be nice ;)
Coming next week ;)
Next vid: how get out of 16 loop jail and build a track :D
thank you so much for breaking it upto simply . could u please tell us what makes a good question and answer
haha could be a nice subject for a future tutorial indeed ;)
@@olliepsy psytrance is so confusing listening to to understand wat is happening exactly ,thanks Ollie.
@@arooshsingh pretty much x)

@@BappinProductions ya I wish arpegiator or rhythmizer had a question and answer option hahahaha
Where on earth do you learn such information Ollie??

Hi Ollie can you make a tutorial how to make sounds of muses rapt - spiritual healing track but with touches more sofisticated in vital or serum
Let me see what I can do ;)
@@olliepsy it would be awesome bring these old school Goa sounds that rocks
Pls make a Kick2 preset pack yeah ;)))
Hey Cylith
I actually did, check my Gumroad :

kik bass (serum + kick2) pack would be great... but rather a small cheap one 😁
i would just take the baseline from this video for 5€ hahaha
w
Niceeee, what do you consider a small and a cheap option ?
Like 6 pairs of kick and bass for 8€ ? The ppl prbly like it 😹
@@MrLetthemknow123 throw in a cigarette and you might have yourself a deal :D
I mean boring same old fm leads
So boring

You need to go in a different direction and be more innovative instead of just trying to make the same ideas everyone already did.
You can't inovate if you don't know how the basics works, just like in school, they first teach you how to add & subtract then multiply & divide....
@@olliepsy Ok fine, I guess you are right, it could be a requirement to learn basics first. Maybe there's something to both sides of our argument.
