go buy now x
also, forgot to mention in the video, there's more than just clothing, including a flag, stickers, and A Mug.
sorry for some harsh cuts in the video that make it hard to understand, filmora apparently doesn't give a shit about precision when it comes to exporting

Respect that you have stayed true to yourself. Even though you're now much more professional and have your own style you're still helping us out and not afraid to share secrets.
Just in the first 11 seconds you proved you deserve 10 times more. While writing this comment in 30 seconds, I changed my mind. You should be at the big festivals. 100%
Will be, just a matter of time
6:08 In case anyone is curious one of the reasons D# sounds so good here is because this kick is in G#. D# would be what is called a fifth harmonic. You can find fifth harmonics by just going 5 notes up in a scale including the root note. (If the kick was pitched in A for example the fifth would be E. B would be F. F would be C. Etc.) It’s the same reason power chords are what they are on the guitar. So a two note G power chord would consist of G and D, or a 3 note power chord would be GDG (with the second G being an octave higher than the first.) But that’s a good rule of thumb to go by for finding harmonic frequencies to add more resonance and life to your kicks or honestly any sound you are making.
correct point, but small nitpick: B would be F#, which is on the opposite side of the circle of fifths to C
I love how you get your point across while also being funny too
This is such an amazing tutorial! My technique for these types of kicks are way different but I really like yours as well! Ima try and mix the two to see what I can get out :D Much love brooo
I've learned quite a few things from this tutorial, and it's really fun experimenting with some of these "new" methods and what not. But also rehashing and improving the tried and true methods like using samples. The kick at 15:18 sounds SO sick, yet there are so many possiblilities to change the sound and make fx/pitch variations really easily! Amazin' ❤️
Dit is echt het beste kanaal voor tutorials man. Dankjewel!
i thought you were writing funny german, i love dutch
I'm making an assumption on your accent but you sound like you're American!
Dude I am going to rep you so hard, we need more Americans making hardcore.
yea i am american x
Hell yeah, there's a tiny scene here in NYC but it basically doesn't exist otherwise.
Dude, your tutorials are literally shaping my music. Can't be more thankful than I am now. Your explenations are so simple, clear and yet so, so helpful on another degree.
Would love to show the things I've learned and progress I made, but I am not gonna promote myself on your channel.
Yet another thanks!
if this sounds good to you you must be deaf
if you are wonering: the person that equal2 didn't want to name at 6:52 for whatever reason is Schirmer.
I was looking for a tutorial on how to make a clean, dance kick. This also sounds sick, thanks for sharing!
bro thanks to your tutorials, ive gotten high grades on my music assignments because they think its 'experimental bass music' lmaooo
How did i just find your channel now?! You´re absolutely hilarious and legendary in explaing what you´re doing, instead of just showing some presets🔥🔥👌 +making absolutely gorgeous music
The part at 21:42..... its perfection.
YES the king himself uploaded again
I don't have fabfilter yet, but I tried Fruity Convolver and it works as well while killing two birds with one stone, as it has a wet/dry mix and an eq to cut out the stereo frequencies while leaving the dry signal intact. It's also cool that you can put in almost any impulse response (as long as it's stereo, tried with a cab sim and forgot they're mono lmao) for a slightly different character.
Great tutorial as always, I've learned most of my kick stuff from you! Thank you dude!
oo, i'll try that out!
ok yeah so i found out it doesnt have early reflections, which is what you want for the tutorial to work, and i feel like putting a reverbed version of the kick in there separately would take a bit too much work personally
Bro loved your new track with lil texas! I'm now a fan and I gotta know how you make these kicks!!!
Nice to see you still posting and the tutorials getting better 😎
literally i can say that i'm learning with one of my favourites
the main rule of equal2 tutorials is to have fun and be yourself

Back for more... I figured out a way to "play" the resonant frequencies as if they're instruments, so you can change them while the tail plays through and get different (or changing) timbres out of the same kick.
Basically you want four (or so) keyboard controllers ranging from C1 (set to 0.0711822509765625) to Eb10 (set to 0.999359130859375). Then link the Parametric EQ 2 frequencies to their respective controllers. The sub in this tutorial has two EQs, so you would link both of them to the sub keyboard controller. You can use the other three controllers for the main resonance and a couple harmonics. At this point, you can create a pattern for your resonances, one note per controller channel. Each time the playlist hits a new "note" in the pattern, the respective resonance will change to that frequency. I've been using this to play "chords" of resonances, along with hitting 2-3 notes on the synth if I want interference.
Alternatively, if you're not going to use chords, you can link all of them to a single controller, set the sub, low, mid, and high bands to Input - x, Input + x, Input + 2*x, and Input + 3*x, where x=0.10034179687. Create a layer out the controller and whatever synth you're generating your kick with (I use Vital), and now every note you play with the layer will shift the resonances too. I find the timbre is slightly different between notes, but it's usually close.
bro tryna make a tutorial within a tutorial wtf
i mean good for you on figuring that out, thats impressive, but i cant understand much of it
@@EQUAL2 :S Sorry, yeah it's pretty dense I guess. It would probably make more sense if I made a video, but that'll have to wait a bit.
Another awesome tutorial! Btw, you can assign a plugin to an empty mixer track by pressing CTRL + L when you're focused on it. :)
I know I just do better with visual stuff haha
Equal2: how to make kicks like equal2 lol
Really nice tutorial, keep it up!
Dude this is sweet. You should do a tutorial on how to make kicks like the ones at the end of Perpetrators 🙏🙏
i think i might have an idea on how he makes the helicopter kick at 20:48. It sounds like he automated the frequency of a single peak in the eq to 'swoop' up and down the eq, similar to a what a flanger does
i think he just used a phaser, turned all the lfo shit down and automated the min depth
Good to have you back bro 👌👌
Glad u found the time for a tutorial. Really appreciated it! Keep the amazing music up and hope 2 hear from u sooner than later (music & video-wise). 😁
Hi! And does compression have to be installed on impact, or will it only spoil everything? And I'll take this opportunity to say that this is a cool educational video from the person with the coolest music! When are the new videos? :)
bro you had me dying with forgetting the reverb all time 😂😂😂😂😂
7:55 that funny slide thing is what I miss in fl mobile, I think that's why my kicks sound so bassless
its an automation clip, you can make them on mobile, move the thing you wanna automate and then go to ctrl (the 3 dots near the play button) and then do add automation clip
@@EQUAL2 found it thx
Great and simple tutorial here. Effective way to create kicks. Never tried an automation on a EQ to make kicks but definitely will try this out! I use Logic Pro X myself and use 3 times more the plugins you are using haha.
a great tutorial again...learn a lot from this in FL studio...still playing along to get it under control! keep it up....👊
You just made my life 🥹 I wasn’t able to make any kick rolls or things like that 😍 thx a lot 🙏🏼
this is the best tutorial ever
this is the greatest tutorial ever
that's the coolest guide i've ever seen!
make apology video with tears for fan noise
I made my first cool uptempo kick with this tutorial, but first Reverb in chain does nothing at all. And I don't understand what for is Side setting in second EQ. Kick sounds cool, I have only problem to make good pitch and distortion/scream transitions :)
I have a question even tho you might not answer it i still wonder what the program you make your music on is called
fl studio 20
thank you! your the best@@EQUAL2
You the man!❤
When will you be in Europe Big Guy? @equal2
Thx you mate, actually use you'r tutorial for making my first song
Where can I get the clip of twomad pouring milk on his head with the uptempo?
youtube to mp4, i dont even have that file anymore lmao
@EQUAL2 damnn, I need that video lmao 😭
i dont get it, i think i did everything right but mine just sounds way to loud and cant get it to form right
I actually love your humor the fucking "ooooh" "aaaaah" xDD keep it going man youve got so far
drop a guide on how to make a kick like a perpetrators, friesenjung, or keta flow
for some reason when i use fruity waveshaper, my kick turns into pure bass and all the high end leaves the kick. Does anybone know the problem?
add more mids, or as dumb as it sounds maybe you didnt do something right just double check the video
best tutorial ever.
me watching this while being incapable of doing anything that is shown
Be a good person, do things!
Yes xx
Amazing tutorial. Thanks so much!
Banger tutorial! Are u planning on uploading a updated screech tutorial? Xoxo
bro i did the exact same as you to test out and mine sounds so much worse
how
You are an OG!! I make hard techno but fuck yes am I going to scare these people with this 😂😂
Bro how to get everything you made in the piano/pat into the playlist or song
hey bro i love this video!
but is it possible to make a new tutorial where u explain how to make that new zaag, helikopter kicks
i think u would help so much people with this:)
cheers x
Maybe a noob question, but I had been exporting and importing kicks before tuning in a different project, and it really degrades the uptempo tails. Do you usually keep the kick instruments in the same projects as your songs?
yeah i usually make the kicks in my projects
take a kick and play it out so the tail is longer than a beat
then get nimble kick and put that kick sample in
if you cant afford nimble kick then use e3 mono, not as good but the best timestretching method for kicks native to fl
That first kick, so good! Can you make a track with that? :D Awesome video as always!
It's what I've planned haha
@@EQUAL2 sweet 😏 looking forward to it 💪
best tutorial, now i can make my songs wihtout kick packs 😁
Finally... Eekwall too tutorial
Discovered your video yesterday and made my first uptemo kicks today, which already sounded amazing thanks to you! I was wondering if you could maybe explain how you did the kick in your track "time" coming in at 2:38? I really like the sound of it. I was thinking maybe it is it a second higher pitched oscillatior? Or short Midi notes for the beginning of the kick?
6:44 mine doesnt sound like this after the third point... with the extra bassy sound its not there i followed to a t.. any ideas?
bro you are 🔥🔥🔥
Does the merch ship worldwide?
yep x
intersting and funny, lets learn from the master
I LOVE YOU
Another movie 🔥
TUTO screetch the dark horror plzzzz !!!!!!!🥵🥵🥵
any suggestions for an side eq setting Equalizer (free)?
havent tried any but theres a reddit post about it www.reddit.com/r/edmproduction/comments/31c45q/your_favorite_free_ms_eq/
you should try some from here
@@EQUAL2 Thanks Bro😉
You probably got one already but TDR Nova
07:04 who is the guy?
If you put a reverb with no wet does this apply to the final sound?
yeah, early reflections adds a small bit of stereo
Hi mate i like so much your vids and i consider you with a great and honorable talent to find the best kicks. Can you please make a tuto of how to do the kick and the bass of bassbilanzz? It will be so helpful. Thanks for share your knowledge with us
Ur a wizard Equal
i was at the sytrus part i didn't have pro-q 3 so i used parametic eq 2 i mean its pretty much the same but i got this very cool sounding uptempo kick so i just took that to thanks!
Parametric EQ 2 does not have a side eq feature so idk how you did that but as long as it works for you
@@EQUAL2 it sounded pretty much the same
btw gave you credits for my new track
You can make mid side eq with parametric EQ in patcher. Think there is a preset for it, otherwise you can look up youtube tutorial for it.
Really hard to put in ableton terms but i get it t think
You are just so inspiring thx a lot man 🙏🏼❤️
I really. Cant get that "umpf" like you have on the serum method :D
1K th like or whatever, great job bro!
lmao u add urself!!XD krunk is so bang, keep going!
finally new video
Thanks e2, got the sound I wanted by using ur tutorial and adding some automation on serum. Got any tips on mixing/mastering the kick? Tried uploading one of the kicks on sc and it didn't sound as powerful as the .wav file, or in fl studio itself (probably due to the compression rate that soundcloud has).
mastering isnt gonna help the kick sound better on soundcloud, the reason it sounds so bad is because it gets compressed when uploading to soundcloud. my mixing usually involves clipping the kick at 0db and then boosting it just past 0db to give the background elements just a bit of crunchiness to make the entire thing sound louder. check out dimitri k- chainsaw, he does the same thing there
@@EQUAL2 gotcha, thank you brother, you da bestest
you are crazy mate just amazing!
Great Tutorial as always!
I LOVE YOUR MUSIC
du you get serum and all other thins just by buying fl?
i keep getting a littile click/popsound after my kick when using sytrus and it driving me insane haha
worked it out lol knew it was something simple was one of waveshapers i had on added a little click thanks for the tutorial and really enjoy mixing your tracks cheers bro
very nice man 😯
THIS IS WHAT I NEEDED, THIS IS ITTTTTTT.
everything works great until I play the waveshaper. From then on you can no longer use the kick.
Any ideas ?
settings?
what do you mean by unusable
TDH told me when i met him irl that he makes his kicks in serum :)
He used sytrus before as well
15:51 relatability on high no cap
Sick ❤❤❤
maybe i'm weird, but i use 3xosc, which i learned from diabarha, and tons of fast dist and blood overdrive, and whatever else i think of
3xosc would work because you can layer two oscillators but why in the world would you choose that over serum? use logic first, advice of popular producers and what they use second, if it has more customizability its probably better
@@EQUAL2 i just use fl, but i can use pitch bends and i have some pretty good customization of pitch. i also tend to not use automation clips and i have the kick in the piano roll at different speeds and i slice between them when i want to do kick rolls
i just don't use serum often
yeah ive found that pitch bending makes some cool fx stuff but you can do that pretty much just as easily in serum, yeah you gotta make an automation clip but how many times are you pitch bending to the point where its an issue yk
if you wanna make a kick using stock fl studio vsts/instruments definitely go for sytrus tho@@BGDMusic
@@EQUAL2 i only pitch bend a few times and use that part of the piano roll, as in not make the patterns in the piano roll, but on the arrangement and slice the pattern
it's not that bad
fucing dorp ded
How can i remove the tail in the first kick?
by sampling it and then cutting off the tail lol?
what was that first song with the guy spraying milks on his head also u got a new sub
you'll see x
Hey x, thanks for the tutorial
im not working in fl studio but, for what u take reverb and "wet" is all down, it has no effect then ?
Early reflections are a separate part of the reverb that adds stereo, it does have an effect, it's small but it's there
@@EQUAL2 oh ok, interesting, all reverbs work like this? or only this one
Can you do that by distorting a 909
not really no, unless you chop up the 909 and loop it to make a bass
the answer is resonance and distortion
but not too much resonance and not too much distortion
