[Webcast01]

[brightlaw95]

AWESOME SHIT!!! I LOVE YOU!!! :O

[avafreak252]

I may have commented already but I constantly come back and watch this video. I'm just starting to mess around with electronic music production so this video is really interesting for me. Good job again!

[ttoxique]

:O

[bartleycollin]

Wow realy enjoyed it! What software/mic do you use?

[YuMMYGummErs]

how do you do the drums ?

[acguitarboy]

hey man, awesome cover....I have a question....how do you get that electronic wind sound at like 3:03-3:07. It kinda builds up, peaks and comes down. I've been trying to do this and I can't figure out what it is. Thanks.

[Fireflykingdom]

That was total awesomesauce.

[NiekGrootmusic]

This is amazing!

[The3penguins123]

How do you make beats in Logic Pro? I can't figure it out.

Oh and how do you do that tube at 1:32? Help would be greatly appreciated!!!!

[The3penguins123]

How do you make beats in Logic Pro? I can't figure it out.

[hinorashii]

This is amazing. So cool bro, so cool.

[RINGMASTER1118]

Your voice is really electrified. Your probably a better music maker than you are a singer. Ya' know Owl City probably uses either logic, cubase, garageband, etc.

[bjs1990peregrine]

I looked at the finalists... and was shocked that you weren't among them. I know how hard it is to duplicate just one synthesizer, let alone put together an entire cover as well as you did. (I've seen other attempts, but they're simply not as good.) It takes so much work to put something like this together, so even though you didn't officially make it in, you're in the honorable mentions in my book. Thanks for sharing your talent with all of us! I look forward to seeing what you have in store!

[sheps145]

@bjs1990peregrine I think I got it in too late. Not too fussed, I got me an iPad anyway hehe :)

[bjs1990peregrine]

@sheps145 Excellent. Enjoy, and keep doing what you're doing! You're sounding great!

[musiclives1000]

dude this is so amazing. how did you learn to use logic this well? ive had it for a while now but i have no idea how you did all this stuff. how could i learn how to do this? please reply!

[SouthernCityLIGHTS]

This is kinda cheap. you had this uploaded from forever ago :| good luck anyways.... I guess

[HomeDogLaws]

Whoa. I really think I have no chance now :(

[musiclives1000]

@HomeDogLaws same

[avafreak252]

really cool cover, i actually watched it until the end which is something i dont do with most covers but you just showing the midi, plug-ins and automation was just really interesting.

[The3penguins123]

Ah man, I'vebeen using Reason/record for a while, and I really like them, but What would you say, Pro Tools 9 HD or Logic Pro 9 for christmas?:)

[slothmonkeyfilms]

Nvm the last comment. I have the autotune plugin. How do you fix it up so it doesn't jump all over? Every time I apply it, it jumps alot. I see you have the manual correction mode where you draw the lines to corresponding notes, how Is that implemented? I'd be very greatful. Amazing cover!

[slothmonkeyfilms]

whats your voice efftct?

[Iraqistan45]

I literally want to sleep with you now --__--

[sayhitom]

I have a feeling i should probably know this, but what does recording the guitar "antiphonally" entail? Great cover btw!

[sheps145]

@sayhitom I can't think of how to explain it...

It just means there's no gap in the whole phrase because all the chords sound directly after the last.

[d0minique08]

i hope you also had instrumentals of your covers.id really want to download it! (i have a youtube downloader :D )

[d0minique08]

OMG pls cover more songs of owl city :D

[d0minique08]

awesome :D

[Duunga14]

So you don't give out Logic files... Could you send the MIDI files? Dont see how that would reveal many secrets.. Im trying to recreate this song & l'd figure out the patch settings on my own it would save me a lot of work.. Cheers M8

[Just0Nele]

You are amazing <3

Adam should love it too

[vesterpop]

Wow! Good job! YEAH! I love Tip of the Iceberg. :D

[JohnnyDeSimone93]

you need to mix it a little better, maybe make the vocals a tad louder and a tad more compressed? idk just trying to help out mate!

[The3penguins123]

Did you buy Logic? And do you have a mac? I was wondering if I should get reason or logic.. Could you help?

[MrPspman123]

What is the name of the font?

[bloodninja72]

where did you get that font?

[sheps145]

@bloodninja72 Dafont.com

[macgeek27]

Hi there! I'm a big fan of the cover. Was wondering if you could send the logic file if that would not be too much trouble. Would be great! Send me a YouTube email if you can. Cheers!

[sheps145]

@macgeek27 I don't give out Logic files sadly, general rule. It reveals far too many secrets. I'm putting together some tutorials and stuff, I'll link them here when they're done. Sorry dude, that's all I can do!

[Benlikesgirls]

haha almost identical.

[huntermahaffey]

I kinda used your track to make a vocal cover.... I hope this was ok? I sent it as a video responce.

[sheps145]

@huntermahaffey Haha dude, send me the vocal part for this, I'll do a proper mix with your voice.

xx

[michaelnkristy12]

I think I just got a boner from watching this video. That's freaking awesome!

[techdeckskaterkid0]

i dont no y but i like this better than the original

[Iceboy575655]

So does owl city use logic or reason?

[macgeek27]

@Iceboy575655 He used to use Reason 2.5. He uses Pro Tools 8 now.

[sheps145]

@macgeek27 He still uses Reason through Pro Tools via ReWire. Pro Tools does all his clever spacial effects and mixing.

[sheps145]

@Iceboy575655 Reason. Then into Pro Tools with Rewire.

[CrystalPhoton]

@sheps145 So do I!

[Webcast01]

@Iceboy575655 This is all the programs i've heard he uses: Logic Pro, Pro Tools, Reason (Adam Young said once: "I'm kind of a Reason guy"), Goldwave and Audacity.

[savchivKyle]

Is there anyway you can put up all the owl city covers without vocals? they're amazing and so it your voice :] (although it is autotuned haha)

[Bmwprod]

Hey what drum software did u use for this? and great cover the best ive ever heard!

[sheps145]

@Bmwprod It's all Ultrabeat, it's not as bad as people think! Thanks for watching.

[underthecouchPRO]

I am a musician, and i realize this is kind of a broad question, but how did you learn everything in Logic and how to change synth setting to what you want? Is there any guide you can give me?

[sheps145]

@underthecouchPRO It's a broad question, but I guess it's a broad answer. I learned all of it from different places. I've learned mostly by doing it. I saved and bought myself a Mac and Logic, it's basically all come from using it. I've got a couple of synths which I've learned my way on, but with learning synths it all pretty much translates - once you know how to use one synth it's dead easy as soon as you're familiar with the controls of another. Logic is only a tool, but I love it.

xx

[sheps145]

@underthecouchPRO Embarrassingly the best explanation I can come up with is that I've been a Logic user for years... I've done Music Technology at College which is where I learned a lot of the stuff I know. I don't really know of any handy guides, sorry to be so unhelpful! Keep plugging away, Logic's not as hard to learn as the other giants.

[YourCheckeredLove]

Great job man. What settings are you using on that autotune evo? I have the same thing and i have trouble finding a good setting for it.

[YourCheckeredLove]

@YourCheckeredLove I just saw that you used the graphical tool. But don't you have to use the other settings too? Like the tuning speed, formant ammount, and such?

[sheps145]

@YourCheckeredLove Yup, the retune speed is at zero so it follows the graph precisely as it is drawn. That's what takes all the natural vibratos out of it. It's a really nice effect!

[YourCheckeredLove]

@sheps145 Sweet. I tried out graphical mode and I am NO good at it lol. Maybe if I keep practicing.

[z0ealexa]

seriously amazing.

[Goldcharms]

Nice job!!

What autotune settings do you use??

[sheps145]

@Goldcharms It's the graph setting in Antares EVO. You literally draw in the notes you want it to snap to. It's how you get all the portamento perfect.

[ShorttMaGe]

@sheps145 thats great dude i think you did a fantastic job
