I disagree...thanks for watching :)

Hi Caleb, thanks for reaching out! I would recommend learning the G Major/ E minor key next (they have the same notes). For now, before recording your vocals, I recommend creating your chords in either the C Major/A minor or G Major/E minor and then sing your vocals in the key of your chords. This will help you still create music you love, while you're still learning new keys. My 9-Week Track Builder Bootcamp will mainly be focused in the key of C Major/A Minor, since it is for folks with no previous music experience. But, you'll learn additional theory, piano basics, and secrets that will help you in the long term learn to create music you're proud of. It's free and starts tomorrow. I've got limited spots available, so if you're interested in signing up, click here: lady-lobster-music-lab.kit.com/9-week-track-builder-bootcamp

Hi Dale, thank you! I appreciate it. Have you been producing music long?

Thank you!

That's a great way to put it! 😄

Oh wow! I've never heard of it! Thanks for the suggestion :)

@@MrsLadyLobster You're welcome.

I've never tried Bandlab, but I've heard of it for sure. Thanks for sharing :)

Thank you! My husband agrees :)

Glad you like them! Thanks for watching :)

I'm glad you found it helpful!

Hi Ella! I'm so glad to hear that! Thanks for watching :) How long have you been learning music production?

@ yw!! I’ve been learning music production for a week now :)

@@ellaw3492 That's awesome! Keep it up :) I'm sure you're doing amazing! Let me know if you have any questions!

@ thank you!! I’ll let you know if I have any questions :))

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching :)

Hello Parham! A composer focuses on creating original music, typically writing melodies, harmonies, and arrangements. Their work is often centered on crafting musical ideas for performances, films, games, or other media types (like orchestral scores). A music producer oversees the recording and production process of a song or album. They collaborate with artists, manage technical aspects like sound design and mixing, and ensure the final product meets creative and professional standards. Both of these overlap in certain ways. For example, as a producer, I also compose the elements within a song as well as record them. Does this make sense?

@MrsLadyLobster yeah thanks

You're very welcome! 😊

I'm so glad you found them helpful! :) Do you have a genre you plan on trying out?

Yep! I started when I was 7, but little did we know that the main piano teacher I had didn't find this important. I can read sheet music fine, but I have difficulty playing music pieces without practice (in other words, my sightreading is pretty rough).

@@MrsLadyLobster I understand

Hi Marcus! Thanks for bringing this up! I love that, it's the coolest when music finds you!

I'm glad I can help! I'm so excited for you!

You're very welcome, Ronald!

Hi @NagisaNayan I'm glad it was helpful! You got this! I'm rooting for you.

Hi Caleb! I hope you're enjoying the music production adventure! In response to your problem, I see how that can be a bit tricky. I'm working on making some videos related to creating melodies and other elements. In the meantime, I hope this helps: I like to try humming my melody ideas while listening to my chord progression. I find that sometimes creating my melodies straight in the piano roll in the DAW limits me a bit, and makes them sound more robotic. Might this be helpful?

Yes this is. Thank you mam

Yayy! Happy to help!

It’s really complicated but now I’m learning

Hi Daniel! I'm glad you're learning! Please let me know if you have any topics you want more understanding or explanation of :)

You are very welcome, Caleb! Thank you for watching :)

Hello @xxfranknittyxx2270! That's a great question! For me, I found chord charts of my favorite songs and learned to play them on the piano. I recommend this because it helped me to become more familiar with different note relationships. I also spent a ton of time experimenting with different chords and rhythms. My favorite spot for chords is www.ultimate-guitar.com/ and I get most of my charts from here for free :) Playing by ear is such an awesome skill to develop! Does this help?

@@MrsLadyLobster yea thanks ima try it

Ooo yay! Lemme know how it goes for you :)

I am so glad that you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching :) Are you just starting to get into music production?

@@MrsLadyLobster Well I've tried a few times in the past but don't know much music theory.

@@MrsLadyLobster More videos about the topic of melody and chords and piano could help? you got any other video suggestions for someone going from here onwards.

Ah, that makes sense! I've added videos going more into melodies and chords to the queue for you! I don't have any videos yet at the moment specifically covering these, But I'll post one next week. In the meantime, I'd recommend checking out my most recent video here for info on how I learned music production, where I give a bunch of tips that have helped me throughout this music production journey: ruclips.net/video/dDflXtu2POE/видео.htmlsi=Re7njaO4oeK3-uKH

Hi Legendary! I would first like to say thank you so much for watching the series! I also started music production with LMMS, and like you said, I had limitations too! When making melody variations, you don't have to keep making a new pattern manually. I Iike to place the pattern I want to vary on a track, then left click the mini keyboard icon on the top left corner of the pattern piece, and click "make pattern unique." This automatically makes a copy of the pattern that I can edit (with all the same instruments and notes), then adjust the piano roll with the different notes I want to use in the variation. Does this help explain it? I'm so glad that my videos are helpful to you, and, again, I really appreciate you taking the time to watch them!

​@@MrsLadyLobster What a coincidence for LLMS ! Thanks you for the tips on "make pattern unique", it's exactky what I needed, it's a gain of time for sure! I think I'll create different pattern like this but keep placing them on a same Track to avoid having too much of them By the way, for the FLEX plugin, and also the Sytrus plugin, do you know if there is some good tutorial that explain how to change some preset to create our own "sound" ? This is what I struggle the most now : I have a sound in my head, but none of the preset are exactly what I'm thinking , and sound properties is pretty hard to undertand. I try to change the setting in the plugin, but I'm doing that blindy, without knowing what I do lol I don't know if you plan doing a video on this ? Or if you have some tips I'll take it !

@@legendaryxelar327 I'm glad it was helpful! As for your questions for FLEX and Sytrus, it sounds like you're looking for what's known as "sound design." I'm still learning this myself, but I'd recommend checking out these videos from InTheMix, one of my favorite music producer channels: Sytrus Tutorial: ruclips.net/video/R4dGeHAafkg/видео.html&pp=ygURaW4gdGhlIG1peCBzeXRydXM%3D FLEX Tutorial: ruclips.net/video/EfAUj3lvW3A/видео.html&pp=ygUPaW4gdGhlIG1peCBmbGV4

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching :)

Thanks for watching!

Cheers to you as well!

@@MrsLadyLobster thanks,i learn a lot from you,God bless ya,but i still confused about how to add a chorus beat within my music. also if i want my tempo to be 113 which buttons i have to place? thanks in advance

I'm glad I could help! In order to change the tempo, just go to the top to the right of the song/pattern buttons. You should see some numbers there (probably around 120). Just left click on your mouse, and drag down on the whole number portion. As for the chorus beat, I'm not sure what you mean. Can you elaborate a little more?

@@MrsLadyLobster thanks a lot,the problem solved.

That's amazing! I'm so glad the video was presented well. How long have you been playing piano?

I'm so glad that you're venturing into the black key territory! I agree, it's harder, even now for me, but I find that I get some of the most beautiful melodies. How long have you been playing piano?

@MrsLadyLobster I've been playing for around 20 years. But I'm not a master. I continue to branch out and learn new things like jazz improv. 😊

I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching :) Have you played piano for long?

@@MrsLadyLobster thank you, too. :) No, I haven't played piano for long. I am very beginner and self-internet-taught. I like that you ask. I have been playing the electric bass-guitar for many years as an amateur. I love music. Funk, rock, alternative, electro, trip-hop, metal, abient and tons more.

Wow! Congratulations! Good luck on your piano journey :) Music is amazing, and it's so cool that you play the electric bass-guitar. I love the extra vibrations that the instrument provides in songs. One day I'd love to learn either guitar or bass... do you have any tips?

@@MrsLadyLobster Yes, the bass is unique in vibrations. Thanks for wishing me! Piano is totally different so I needed to try it and now I am excited. Bass is so cool and I think it could be a better choice for you because guitar is more similar to piano in many ways. My tip about bass is to keep the groove going no matter what. Playing repetitively is nice. And it's more preferable to play on the kick drum and let the snare breathe if this suits in the song. In general, I believe that the bass becomes more impressive when your phrases have nice and clever pauses. And ghost notes. But even the basslines without any pauses have a different charm. Also, by applying a fat and full in sound effect you can play even just one or two notes without being boring or inadequate. Bass is power.

Oooo!!! I love power! Thank you so much...I've screenshotted this message for later lol

Glad you enjoyed it!

Hello! how's it going?

Awesome! I'm glad that you enjoyed :) How is it going creating your song?

@@MrsLadyLobsternot good it’s hard as a beginner but i’m gonna use ur video to improve

@@midnaslament I totally get that! When I first started I had a hard time too, but you've got this! Just keep creating. That's what got me to where I am now. Let me now if you have questions on the concepts in the video:)Also, I'll keep releasing more resources to help out as well! By the way, what made you want to jump into music production (i.e., making music for your content, or on a journey to become a music producer, etc)?

@ i’ve always been super interested in production particularly in middle school and high school. it wasn’t until i listened to earl sweatshirt’s some rap songs that inspired me to dive into production. j dilla is another inspiration

Wow! That's amazing! Well, I'm glad you're diving in, and good luck on the journey! From what I'm hearing, are you looking into trap/hip hop type music production at the moment?

Wow! Thank you so much :) I've never heard of Henry Danger, but it sounds like a fun show. Enjoy the series!!

@@MrsLadyLobster ruclips.net/video/Aw2nj0hfT9A/видео.html

I watched that whole video. Charlotte is totally a vibe! Especially testing out the super strength with the toolbox lol!

lol, is it the nose? Btw, I've fixed the audio issues, so here's the new link to day 4 of the make a song in 5 days series: ruclips.net/video/tyF4ZZBPJiM/видео.html

My pleasure! I'm so glad you enjoyed it :) Thanks for watching 😁

Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it :)

I'm so glad you enjoyed it :)

😁😁🎹🎧

Thank you so much :)

Thank you! I'm glad you like it :)

Glad you liked it!

Thank you! I totally see your point on the dance music side...what would you do to make it 'hit harder?'

@@MrsLadyLobster Hmm, maybe faster tempo and deeper booming bass lines perhaps... that said, it's hard to make Moonlight Sonata into a dance song because it is, by its nature, a slow meandering piece... His Pathetique sonata would be a good piece to try maybe!

A very interesting analysis you've given! I just looked into the Pathetique Sonata (No. 8 Opus 13) you mentioned, and the tempo/overall vibe does seem a lot easier to fit into an EDM piece. It sounds like you've been playing piano for a while...am I right?

@@MrsLadyLobster I used to... but haven't a long while as my memory is terrible and that's a huge handicap for any type of music. Keep up the cool work!

I hope you can jump back in soon, and thank you :)

Thank you! Have you been playing piano for long?

Wow! Thank you so much! I am so glad you enjoyed it. What types of music do you usually like playing?

@@MrsLadyLobster I really enjoy playing jazzy chords, major/minor 7ths and 9ths are just so fun to play

@@Xenexus Wow, that sounds like such a vibe! Still haven't really broken into the jazz sector, but I want to some day! That's amazing :)

Thank you so much! Are you into piano improvisation?
