Tips 'N Tricks Thursdays Eps 14 - Create A Pulsating Synth (Heard In Dance/Pop Music)

[moonriverdc]

hey this was great thanks. If the synth i want to pulse has reverb or delay on it, how can I get the effect to pulsate as well? Thanks!

[FreestyleLilWayne]

Hey adam how do you feel about waves plugins?

[BIGCTV18]

thanks helped so much :)

[loafpork]

I'm getting some weird delay thing with the effect. It starts off in rhythm but as the loop goes on there's something going wrong with it.

[MrNhienLe]

hey adam i was wondering can you use this effect without using ultrabeat? say i want to use my sounds from native maschine can i still sidechain it to a lead synth and have the same effect or do i have to do something extra? thanks your videos help beginner producers like me learn techniques i would have to pay and travel to learn :D

[imamusicmogul]

@MrNhienLe yes you can! that is what is so good about side chaining all you have to do is send out the audio via a bus and bring in on a compressor on the track that you want to control... Let me know if that asnwers your questions..

[DevonMichoProject]

hey man love tha stuff any way you can do a tutorial on that poppy synth sounds from club house songs artist like klass use it alot ive been trying to find the sound forever

[jmotter92]

@imamusicmogul as in i dont want the kick in the mix.  thanks.

[jmotter92]

Is there any way you could do this to an mp3? I want to get the song have the pulse, but everytime i use the kick to get the pulse, I have the kick drum signal coming through. I tried putting the kick to "No Output" and tried turning off the sequencer in Ultrabeat. Any ideas?

[imamusicmogul]

@jmotter92 You mean you just want the synth to pulse but you don't want the kick to be in the mix??

[zbs28]

I love you man! You save me so much time. Thanks!

[Jamminn555]

Great video, Adam! As usual! Thanks for everything you do!!!

[jnrcopper]

Thanks for sharing your tricks of the trade. Just a quick question, do happen to know what synth is used on Brittney's Hold it against me track? It is absolutely monsterous and mechanical sounding! Thanks in advance, Rich. 

[SKETIMUSIC]

Hi mate. Been watching your tutorials for the last two days. I am a logic tutor as well. I noticed when you are changing the limiter level on your compressor in this tutorial that you haven't turned the limiter on. The limiter won't do anything in the logic compressor if it isn't activated.

Great tutorial though. New music producers need people like you to help them develop their skill.

Hi Adam! Great tutorial but could you do a tutorial on side chains? I wouldn't wanna use something I know nothing about! Thanks, have a good one, f.

[gambotage]

[megababy80]

Bless you

[phildela]

Wow, now this is impressive how easy it turns out to be! I've always wondered how to get these kinds of sounds, I'll dig in and try it from scratch. Thanks a lot, man, once again, very clear!

[kongwee1978]

When I do this, I will take out the bus output. Some mention side chain compression. Just one layman word- ducking.XP

[neekrusher]

I heard that Britney record last week sssssss I don't know imam, I'm not crazy about that record The pumping side chain trick is definitely in your face on that song.

follow meeeeeeee @RamoValorian

[Flipjunkie1]

Also known as side chain compression !

[KeithMMeldrum]

sweet thanks, before i had to go and set up tracks for this, Thumbs up :)

[slampiece99]

Hey adam thanks for your videos. I finished my album tracks. Check my channel out on my youtube page. You helped me out a lot. First time recording logic express. The recordings are all me. Thanx

Oh thanks bro for getting back so quick. This series has been one of the most helpful for me. Thanks man peace

[Zombiebrainstew]

Thanks man your awesome. Say I had a question. Could you use this for hip hop, like instead of the synth maybe it would be deep sub bass. Because sometimes layering the bass with the kick sounds like shit. Most of the time I just create a sub bass kick in ultrabeat. But I was wondering if this same technique could work to punch the kick through the bass. Peace

[imamusicmogul]

@Zombiebrainstew that is exactly what you do and many do that technique on their drums!!!

[dodge70chargerrt]

Tricked me on the title; it should just be called how to side chain compress in logic (which there are already tons of vids)

[bidybo]

this is so helpful. could you keep telling us how to make synths
