How To Use Synth Fills To Make Awesome Electro House

[DeejayGregdee]

MAN I LOVE YOU. ty so much..

[mikebeecher133]

Hey man. I have a song that I am working on and need some help and I think you will be able to help me. Please let me know if you can get a minute! Thank you!

[DJDaasMusic]

could you take a synth, record the notes to an audio track and then sample those?

[mrp3rs0n9uy]

@DJDaasMusic Yeah you could....

[TheGreenchiller]

that truly is a great idea

[DudeImWayBetter]

Sorry to seem like a douche but I guess it was a glitch, I tried to figure out what was wrong for like an hour and then decided to ask for help and restart ableton, thanks for the tutorials btw they're great.

[DudeImWayBetter]

Nevermind all you gotta do is hit the control button. But I have another question while on ableton I sometimes accidentally hit a button and it makes my arm session, the track with the little red light on it, sound really low pitched while I play the keys off my keyboard, but when I actually insert the midi and play it off my song it's nit low pitch, so I was wondering what do I do to make it normal pitched.

[DudeImWayBetter]

I don't know if you have very much experience with ableton but do you know what button to click to allow more than one solo to play, it's painstaking to have to turn off each individual track just to get only two tracks to play at one time.

[philcara16]

Easily best tutorials on youtube. I had been using this technique but have always been to afraid to consciously leave as many gaps or just use samples. Thanks to you and this tutorial, I now have full confidence in using samples instead of just using synths, which as you mentioned, guzzles cpu. You can have a great song no matter what, as long as it fits together which you have shown is very possible. Many thanks!

[RossCooperMusic]

hey ryan, I'm a little confused on how you make all your music. do you mostly use samples or do you make all the synth sounds yourself and then play every little part? also, how do the guys like porter robinson and skrillex do their music - are they using mostly samples too?

thanks a million for the tutorials, they help a ton!

[jimboboy]

im eternally grateful for this guys tutorials but his voice really annoys me for some reason

[brandedtravesty]

which vengence packs do you use? i have a few but before paying for more, would liek to know which once are worth the investment

[Novavita87]

hi nzmusic can i ask a question? how did you do the electro baseline on your video tutorial?? ;)

[Erovra1]

I would love to make that tutorial into a song... xD

[KidNickMusic]

this video insanely intense! love it!

[greatare]

what name?

[AceTheIntrovertMusic]

this program doesnt make sense to me. its not that its complicated, it just isnt practical. same with massive fl and cubase. i just like ableton and reason

[khav1108]

@AceTheIntrovertMusic there not that complicated, say 2 weeks of using it quite frequently and you should know your way round quite easily, on the contrary logic is one of the most uncomplicated programs, it all perfectly laid out, and it no way near as complicated and pain in the ass as cubase, i honestly think cubase is garbage

[ferchiodj1754]

Which is this program

[aopordigybro]

you should release all your tracks that you use on all your tutorials , they will blow up

[melurngudhere]

how did you get all the samples in the same key? =/

[fepav]

holy shit, what software?

[Rocketbunny180sx]

@fepav Apple Logic Pro

But you can do this with any program.

Just start youtubing. Good luck to you!

[fepav]

@Rocketbunny180sx thanks :)

cus garageband kinda sucks lol

[Rocketbunny180sx]

@fepav Not true! Justice uses Garageband, and made most of there famous tracks using it. They even stated that people underestimate the power of garageband during an interview.

Just use what you have and make the best of it =)

Either way tho, glad I could help man!

Take it easy

[fepav]

@Rocketbunny180sx ok ok thanks, but you'd have to see how hard i work to understand me xD

[Rocketbunny180sx]

@fepav I could say the same thing. Hit me up if you wanna collaborate man

[WOAHFOX]

What program is this, and how much does Massive cost? I used the trial, but it only gives you thirty minutes, little time to get the feel for it.

[fabesgl]

when you fill in your track are you specifically looking for a sound that YOU want or you just go through a list of them un till one sounds good?

[LukeDarko]

noob question:

what ''fills'' means? i'm dont know english very well

could anyone explain this? thx

[ossi43]

@LukeDarko fills are the little sounds you hear between the gaps he left open in the bass

[LukeDarko]

@ossi43 thanks a lot

[cgrdrummer]

These tutorials are awesome. Thank you! :)

[cgrdrummer]

These tutorials are awesome. Thank you! :)

[TwistedLogicSyndrome]

hey man nice job :) where do u get those samples from?

[nzmusic101]

@TwistedLogicSyndrome random sample packs. mostly vengeance ones though :-)

[eArtrash]

Great job.

[oxoflavourcrisp]

great videos. theres plenty on the web about making patches but not so much explaining genre specific production techniques. this "fills a gap" thanks for sharing :)

[pivotlordOMG]

ONE THING! No reverb except for effects sounds best (At least I think so)

[megadialage]

All I can say is SICK!......NICE one man......Your very talented.......Would love ask you a few questions....Peace

[4Dean3]

thanks :)

[gavinjamesaitken1]

man you need to put together a sample pack with heaps of your samples in there! maybe like one drum one and then one with synth fills, and a whole lot of massive patches. i would definitely buy it!!!

[craiglandowski]

where do you get your samples from? Are they free?

[willsmithsp]

felguk bassline

[dadaminus]

yep man good tuts!!!

can you say me what sound bank of techno sound you use????

thanks in advance

[toxiKdubs]

Your tutorials are excellent can't believe you haven't got more views!

Just wondering if there is any chance you could show how to make some good pads with massive? :)

[Rokoroks]

@nzmusic101

where do you get your tonal samples from?

[aserv948]

what synths are u using ?

[nzmusic101]

@aserv948 Massive from Native Instruments

[AlexRider001]

could you please do a wobblebass tutorial for massive?

theres only two for massive on youtube and theyre both crap

[nzmusic101]

@AlexRider001 haha i will try and find some time to have a go. Yea i have wobbles in my songs that i manage to fit in really well with other sounds, but to be honest i make pretty stock standard wobbles! but will give it a go.

[AlexRider001]

@nzmusic101 cool thanks :D

just fantastic channel by the way

[tekkentool]

@AlexRider001 Look up the subfocus tutorials.

[thesfx]

@AlexRider001 attach LFO to low pass filter cut off n adjust to taste, easy

[ajcbrown]

brilliant tutorials mate, good on you for taking the effort.to make em

[jonnyl94]

thank you so much

[obliviox]

Great vid thanks. Would love to see how you load the samples you found into the sampler etc. Like the back end to creating these fills. Finding the samples for this. Not sure what kind of samples, where do u find them or do they come with the VST? and how to load up 128 samples to a sampler? do u play the samples in or draw them in midi or what?

Keep up the great work!

Thanks

[alexpea22]

Where can I request what to make a tutorial about?

[FerNa14488]

@alexpea22 pm him? :S

[SteelDogX]

Do you upload music anywhere besides here? Just you dont upload tracks here much, you should. :)

[CS5n531]

cool hope u read my msg!

[JustinMPerea]

crazy, do you sift through vengeance samples?

[nzmusic101]

@JustinMPerea yea basically! I load up 128 samples into each sampler.

[ssssn]

Awesome video! The title is quite confusing though, usually a fill is what you call a drum fill at the end of the 4th bar or w/e, like a snare roll.

[nzmusic101]

@ssssn good point! title changed! :-)
