Operator and Roar are extremely powerful devices. At first Operator doesn’t seem like much but when you dig into it it’s just amazing. And Roar feels like cheating, it’s too good.
I think I've learned a lot by just screwing around with plugins, often thinking "what if" this and that, sometimes using a new plugin or concept/trick I've heard about. But limitations, as you mentioned helps a lot, less is more!
If you wanna learn operator better you can learn a lot from watching tutorials on other fm-synths. SeamlessR knows sytrus very well, and there are lots of tutorials on FM8, and the OG dx7 here on CZcams. I think a lot of it comes down to getting used to what different pitch ratios sound like with just sine waves on all operators. If you learn what ratios result in what intervals you can get a better grasp of what you're doing as well, as we are more used to working with half steps and Hz. 1:2 is the octave, 2:3 is a fifth, 4:5 is a major third. Fm has a tendency to sound "metallic", which often is good for techno, but a trick i learnt a couple of years ago, is that you can get a saw-like sound by modulating a sine-wave by itself.
In my past, i was producing UK bass-music / Dubstep and i learned FM synths but operator have a different interface im used to so i always kept it away from my self. Now its time i guess ;) Thanks for the tipps.
hey man, big fan of you and learning a lot. I have few years of exp playing around with hardware machines, now just switched to ableton because my goal is to create some tracks. Can you make a video on how you create an actual track? I mean how you record things sepparately and how you assemble an actual track. For example i'd like to know if you record groups with all the channels inside into a single sample, or you record every audio channel sepparately. Also, do you work with samples at all for creating tracks? Maybe im just overthinking here, but i wanna know if instruments are played live on ableton or you have them already recorded and just layer a bunch of samples from those instruments in your project). I ask this questions because coming from hardware machines i never worked with samples or multitrack recording, just patterns. And when i recorded i did it performing live straight from the master of the mixer to an interface in 1 stereo channel. The content of your channel is 10/10 and you explain everything in a way it feels fun. Thanks for your work and keep it up!
One of his recent videos talks about his approach to arranging a full track. Essentially he arranges a rough structure in scenes in session view then records that into arrange view and adds some tweaks. Pretty simple approach but works great for this style
How many times do you use operator?
MORDIO: YES
Los reales usamos operator y el resto es historia ! jajajaja
hahahahaha

Absolutely 👍

the philosophy of my channel i guess :)
Man your voice is perfect for a deep techno charming vocal
Do you offer that ?

@@MordioMusic hahah, same here! Yeah, I know sytrus well, and FM8 seems very similar, but operator seems a lot less intuitive/user friendly imo.
@@MordioMusic yooo, any chance you will be revisiting the uk bass sound in your videos?
Wie immer super geil!! Danke für all deine Tipps echt 😍😍👌👌
Freut mich das es hilft :)
Lovely insight! Always learning lots from your videos :)
Thanks mate
great video, u the man
🤍 thanks mate, happy it helped.
When are you doing more Bitwig videos? Really enjoyed them
sorry i lost a bit the interest on it, for me i would like bitwig as a vst in ableton haha
Hey buddy, good to see you 😉 I associate all those sounds with some evil Lego clowns. They're probably juggling and have devious eyes 😄
haha LOL ;)
but i know what you mean, i see tunnel sometimes haha
I knew you were our guy 😄
