Hey, have you thought about a guide about finding and developing the groove, building on it? I find your music very rhythmically interesting, so your input on this subject would be extremely interesing in my opinion:3
Thanks for watching :) And amazing idea, my plan was anyways to prepare some vids about my harmonic and rhythmical knowledge which I transfer into my productions. So I'll definitely go for your suggestion :)
Some great mastery of operator here. You really know your way around that synth. Great to see you using so many stock plugins too, it shows that you can create great music with stock synths and fx.
Thank you for sharing this. Really appreciated the tidbits of insight into structuring your projects by arrangement/mixing phases and then how you keep things organised - all very enjoyable to my ADHD software developer brain.
I was completely mesmerized by that exact song yesterday night, wondering how you had achieved that level of witchcraft. And this morning, I get to watch you explain it in full. What a blessing. Thanks for your amazing work!
Wow! Thank you for sharing. Videos like this (and personalities like yours) spread so much positive energy and inspiration. We need more people like you 😊
How did I not know about QEONE? I'd heard Dycide: Carnyx but didn't realize this is your own label. Some very nice releases here. "iunua" is lovely -- maybe my favourite of yours since Bloom.
The stereo effect is often lost when tracks are being played in clubs or other parties for multiple reasons. 1. many people who frequent techno events often prefer to dance right against the bass bins (yes most of the people I know that I know wear hearing protection.) so if they are right in front the left stack they arent experiencing the stereo effects. 2. at clubs that dont exclusively cater to the techno, dnb, dub, trance crowd they often have satalite speakers located throughout the club. The installation of these speakers are often an afterthought and they rarely are summed to be mono, and with music that has elements that werent checked for mono compatibility often ends up just not playing out of half the speakers in the club. and 3. Often large soundsystems set up for techno are setup in mono specifically so that the first reason isnt an issue. Im sure you check for mono compatibility when it comes to your tracks, but regardless if you check, if you are expecting that stereo image to be a build a sense of energy or tension when played in a club dont couunt on that. I definately have bought tracks thinking that the stereo image created in tracks was awesome, and then hear that not be present in the club, and its a massive letdown.
Yes you are right, but because of that it makes sense to always prepare the tracks with mono compatibility but also don't miss out on stereo because there are definitely also occasions in which the listening situation is another one like online mixes or regular streaming on home speakers or headphones. And then mono sounds pretty one dimensional to me. I think both has to be considered and therefore I prefer to produce so that it suits both situations perfectly :)
@@polygonia8301 I figured you knew that, although I felt it was something that people watching the video should know especially people who haven't DJ'd many proper gigs
@@donnydarko7624 Yeah absolutely, I'll create a video in which I'll talk about the stereo topic also in reference to the club compatibility. Thanks for your input!
Woow this is incredible. Thank you so much for sharing your experience to the world. Im a big fan of your talent and OMG youre giving us the opportunity to learn about the way you interpret music, is fascinating. Lots of love vines for you. Greatings from Mexico
Amazing :) I am sure you'll create some neat stereo elements hehe. I might do another video on some techniques one can use to create a wide stereo from mono signals. Could be fun :)
Top, richtig erfrischend. Ohne Materialschlacht von sauteuren Synthis sondern das, was eben da ist mit einigen add-ons. Und die Pflanzen haben es komplett rausgerissen :D
really fantastic. I've been listening to alot of Amapiano, and finding alot of what you would expect to be 4 on the floor kicks is sonically being taken up by the wooden percussion sounds and usually a really deep sub bass. Your point on using alot of modulation is a really important key point here - if you want things to sound "organic" you need to create alot of movement. One thing I like to do is use the Ableton Erosion module, and modulate that which creates some interesting noise and tonal changes over time that works especially well with drums.
very nice walkthrough of a beautiful track! Would love to see/hear more of this! Inspiring me to go back into the box after being out for a while, or at least try a more hybridized setup
Thanks a lot for this wonderful video! Lovely to see your process and workflow:) It would be amazing if you could dive a bit deeper into operators capabilities. Specifically creating those woody,watery and trippy textures with it.
@@ryefieldsociety7325 Yeah that's actually a bit more complicated as we are three peeps with quite different ways of working. But let's see, maybe we can realize sth :)

@@flomoller6096 Oh das ist ein sehr alter Track, vielleicht werde ich zeigen, wie ich ihn heutzutage neu mischen würde. Denn das Projekt entspricht definitiv nicht mehr den heutigen Standards ;)
Really appreciate you making this video - I love this sound and it’s always been a little puzzling to me as a producer and percussionist - especially all the stereo processing going on.
@@AllSeeingIrishMan Lovely, it's my recent track for Fur:ther Sessions called Flumen. You can support it here: furthersessions.bandcamp.com/album/vivendum-3

Well, it's on my todo since months now. Always slightly too busy but I try my best to realize it as soon as possible :) Hopefully by the end of Feb or Beginning of March.

Lovely to read! Really happy you enjoyed that one. And yes I will probably explain my project for Meteor storm as well, this came up here several times now :)
You are great! I found you a week or two back due to this video. I was intrigued by the use of wooden instruments in your work. I am now a fan. I love the music videos you are putting out. I love what you do. I already purchased a couple albums of yours and would like to know which album has the wooded instruments so I can buy. Thank you!
Hello! Very happy to read that you emjoy my music. Thanks for listening :) This is the compilation with the wooden track: qeone.bandcamp.com/album/glyphs-wood
@@polygonia8301 Thank you so much! You are a true lover of rhythm and have an amazing talent for it. I am trying to make music tracts as well. I will be watching any lessens you have because I love your sound. I hope you don’t get tired of it!
Utility is definitely best for any volume adjustments. Also, I have a simple rack I made with only one Utility, but the difference is I mapped it to max out at zero dB for the many situations where I automate volume only one way (down)
This is brilliant and I'd love to watch more from you. Did any of the other artists (other than Mordio) break down their approaches for this compilation? How can we find these if so?
Thanks for tuning in :) There is one other production inside video for a track of this VA by FTP Doctor: ruclips.net/video/CSYvUVkzy6g/видео.htmlsi=QstSCpDlA5d21sRb The others explained insights via screenshots and texts via our label instagram profile: instagram.com/qeone.rec/
Hi - I discovered you through your track "Mind Alteration". Your work is immense. It was a pleasant surprise to find you are using software only - I thought you might have an army of Elektron machines. Thank you for posting this insight into your work. Did you get the lovely watery sounds in "Mind Alteration" using Ableton stock filter and the Phaser/Flanger? it would be great to make sounds so watery and organic...
Lovely to hear that you enjoy my sounds. Yes I am software only and I love it haha :D No need to spend any money at all for good quality sounds. There are actually tons of techniques to let your music sound watery. I will do a little video about this too when I find time to do the next one.
@polygonia8301 It might sound a bit weird but I love watery sounds and bubbly sounds, have been on a quest for a while trying to learn how to make them... The watery sounds you create are among the best I have heard. I am really looking forward to that video! - thank you so much.
Hello, i'm super interested in your mixing habits. Especially for the masterchannel: Do you care about -6 db headroom or just lower the masterbus or the utility before sending to mastering and so on. Thanks you so much and sending a big hug.
Will share an in depth video about my mixing technique. I am currently waiting for a software to be finished which we are currently developing for exactly that purpose ;) will create the video afterwards.
Id like to give a tipp on your automation drawing at ~ 13:50. I would use the shaper lfo thing because you can automate the offset, jitter, depth and stuff. I know it is pure shit and its fucking frustrating that it doesnt have vertical grid but anyways i llike to use it on fileposition too on granulator. also you can draw in random shit, then map the phase to macro and press random until you like the sound (ofc add other effects with lfo's and also map them to macros to randomise all at once). I feel like that is a cheat code to happy accidents because you dont have to take so much time to turn all the knobs individually.
Yes I know that one, it’s handy sometimes. I actually love to also vary my curves at some spots for example and for that purpose it‘s a bit more easy to do it like I did. That could also be achievable by using various shapers and turning them on and off. But sometimes I feel more flexible when I draw that in the automation curve section directly. It depends a bit on what you want to achieve in the end. :) thanks for your fruitful comment, I am sure some producers here appreciate your tip 🌸
spannend! organic sound indeed. Does the session view have any place in your production workflow? i tend to start there, and end in the arranger. Although i prefer Bitwig nowadays, since it has vertical scenes :) Grüße aus München
Yes Bitwig is amazing. Going to look into that later this year as well. :) I use the session view mainly for my live sets. Since I am always arranging from the beginning on to speed up my production process, I tend to always use the arrangement view. I think the session view is great for exploring and building some nice loops. But as I do so much with automation curves right from the start, I definitely prefer the arrangement view for my work flow.
As I want to avoid any harsh peaks which will be problematic in the mastering afterwards. I use limiters only in that way that the clipping is not hearable and the unwanted peaks are still cut. Of course I don't want the signal to be undynamic, but I also don't want it to be too dynamic. It always depends a bit on the usecase. Sometimes it can be a nice choice of style to use a heavy limiter as well.
Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge...... Massive fan :) I was wondering what your thoughts are on reverb? As I saw very little reverb implemented in your project. Are you recording your sounds with any reverb etc? Or do you keep reverb to a minimum to get a cleaner mix? Any insight would be amazing. Also super keen to hear your thoughts harmony and rhythm. Thanks for the beautiful music and helping us out. 🥰
Hello dear :) Thanks so much for your fruitful comment! Yes indeed, I keep reverb at a minimum and only use it there where I really want to have it as an accent. I think it adds too much mud/noise and makes things less 'readable' for the listener, so yeah it's actually really bad for the mix if it's more wet than dry. In my work I want to use reverb to create a space, but that can be done by a very small amount of wet signal. Reverb also destroys transients - I want my percs and drums to punch to make people really dance and feel the beat. With loads of reverb on them, it looses the groove very fast. I can also record a video in which I speak about that and show some examples in my tracks. I have some ideas how I could also experiment with it to show what I mean :) And about harmony and rhythm, yes it's actually my plan to show producers who don't have knowledge of those topics some basic stuff to improve their game. Thanks for popping by and for listening to my music, it means a lot 🥰
@@polygonia8301 Yes please that would be absolutely amazing. Played some of your tracks last weekend out in a beautiful part of nature where I live in Australia. People loved them, trees too probably. :)

Played some of your tracks last weekend out in a beautiful part of nature where I live in Australia. People loved them, trees too probably. :)
I’ve been looking through your works for a while now and I’m curious to know what music gear you find yourself using ? Definitely interested and curious!
I use Ableton only and love to record my acoustic instruments plus my voice. But voila, that's all :)
