apparently if you create a new midi track, select the MIDI in from the output of the track which you been using the scale midi effect on - then arm record and hit record. the new midi channel will record the correct notes. you can then disable scale on the original track and just copy over the newly outputted midi recording from the blank channel to the one your working on.
note. ive not tried this yet but apparently it works
Yes I wanted to keep the steps simple in this video so debated showing that part. I may show it in a future video when writing some melodies. Thanks for your feedback.
@@STRANJAH thanks for the reply.
I agree, I really appreciate the simplicity of your videos and how you stay away from getting too bogged down in details.
👍👍🏻
I've been learning music theory for months now and even though i don't regret it i do wish i watched this video before i paid for my courses haha, nether the less great content!!
Wow... please continue more tutorials like this. I’ve been looking for content like this
Most welcome!
Its cool,.cause when you turn off Scale, you would be now playing some F lydian stuff (as the bass is setting the root on F yet you played C maj notes), and still has a nice exotic vibe to it.
Could you make a series of tutorials going from start to finish on some drum patterns like critical impact/benny l
Your videos are incredibly helpful. helping me build up the foundations and understanding in such a digestible way. Thanks.
Can you do a video on how to make a good build up for a drop as I can never quite get it right
I second that
yeahhh same
Really enjoying the content on your channel. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us!
Things have come a long way since Reason 2.5.... Bruv, I look forward to getting my lab up and running and dropping a tune with all the knowledge you’re sharing with us. Big up!
sweet tom!
latest version of reason is ridiculous yeah *also seen a new instrument hinted called "friktion" that made a sneaky appearance in a promo vid they released the other day, will be interesting to see what it is yeah
Much love stranjah
Cheers another great video. Would it make any difference placing the scale tool before or after the chord tool?
Great question Dave, it may make a difference depending on the chord and scale you choose. It's like playing a chord and telling it to then correct the notes. Or correcting your notes and then making a chord out of that. The note combination may be different in each case.
that first bass would make a sick tutorial ;)
Would love to know how to use a lot of these ideas in Logic.
None the less. Still great ideas and I’m learning from these. Thanks. Big Up!!
u have the same thing inside Logic, go to midi effects then transposer
Oder Thabkyou Sir!
Would be awesome to see some Liquid DnB videos -- particularly ambient sounds (pads, drones, etc.) with a nice reese... Seba, LSB, Monrroe
Totally. 👌
Just an idea but is there any chance u could run like a remix competition of one of ur old track for giggles? Also maybe set up patreon. I'd happily pay u for more in depth stuff
Been watching your videos and you are a true inspiration mate. We cannot thank you enough for sharing your years of knowledge and skills with us. Gideon is such a banger as well! You sir, are a legend!
Hey man, love your vids. I've been producing alot of liquid dnb and I've started to get the grasp of more deep/minimal stuff now, but I'm having a hard time mixing, even with liquid. I have all the ideas down and what I want it to sound like, but I can never mix it correctly. Especially the drums, even with sidechaining I cant get it right. Could you do a tutorial on mixing? Drums, basslines, EQ, sidechaining, frequency/stereo filling.
Bouta setup my analog keyboard to record some stuff then hopefully create a decent dubstep baseline using this video.
Does using obscure modes and scales have an implication for how well your track will harmonically mix with other tracks that are written in more transitional western scales?
Thanks again man!! Wicked little tip!
Is there a way to get this Jump Up Bass Preset? 😍
Watching your videos makes me a little jealous of your awesome synth sounds. Amazing 👌
Once again a great tutorial, thank you Mr Stranjah!
Loving the vids man, you should do some UK dubstep tutorials
Yer the only dubstep tut on yt are all brostep Skrillex shyt
No he shouldn’t.
Thanks for the tutorial, didn't even know you could do that!
Yeah I was teaching my in-class students some theory and then found out this hack for it. Still recommend learning the basics though!
This is dope! Thanks!
A quick note on the shortcut at 9:20 of just transposing by 5, although the notes would be in the A minor scale they would now be in a different mode if I'm not mistaken?
That is a good question, my initial thinking is that it should not change - the intervals of the notes are still intact - so mode should be constant.
@@STRANJAH Big up yourself, love the channel honestly so I really appreciate the reply!
I figured it would depend if the transposition happened before or after the notes are snapped into scale, so to test it out I recorded the MIDI internally and sure enough, doing it this way with the transpose function changes the key but also the mode too ie it goes dorian, phrygian etc, you can hear it in the video too. Interesting stuff!
So I now know that I need live for when I get 20 minutes a month to do beats😂 The dubstep element of this video was a wake up moment🇬🇧Thanks man, liked the keyboard element of the video, you’re getting ready to take over👍 Big up man, it continues to be very strong ❤️
Can you get this same process/effect on fruityloops? Does seem like a cheat code for making tunes but hey, 2021
I have live 11 trial and i can't seem to find the double harmonic scale I the browser... any ideas??
u know the intros like (kanine - want you) the ones that just sound bad boy like
Nice content all the time bro!
thank you!
Great stuff
wow great bro!!! 🔥🔥🔥
Great video!
is there a logic alternative for this tool?
Love your tutorials! Maybe you should try to make some UK bassline, just a suggestion.👍
been planning to! love the style
STRANJAH ayyy yess basslines my genre! Some real bangers in there
Can u make that bass sound design, is lit
is there a way to achieve this on fl studio?
you are the best thanks!
much love!
Any tools like this for logic x?
Master. bro. thak
Neat and handy!
So are we all going to ignore that you have an incredible shuffle sensibility?
Do a video on Jump up DnB intros, (not the drop) i can never get the sound right. Thanks bro 😇
will look into it, thx Jake
STRANJAH 👌👊👊
Need it too
This must be a joke. Jump up tunes don’t have intros these days. It’s like 10 seconds long. My grandma can write that shit. Go back to the 90s and early 2001 tunes had actual intros that would make your hair stand up.
7:00 almost starting to sound like an amit tune bro ;)
bro please do ego trippin bad girls or just his noise in general
I love growls and grizzles 😂
me too!
Is there something simular for FL?
yes
@@benwilliams7311 what?
I think it’s called the scale helper tool, FL has guides and stamps within the piano roll too but it does not fix the notes for you, it just grays out the ones that aren’t in the scale
Just google it...
@@benwilliams7311 cheers mate 👍 very helpful
Can you explain DNB like Used plssss
shook
Does anyone know if you can do this in FL Studio??
There must be a tool. I don't have FL Studio been meaning to grab it.
Growls get the heads BANGINNNNN😉
haha it sure does
😍
I would write a blues song about how my orchestral pack doesn't include a cello and how my scale effect doesn't have a double minor, but alas there is no blues scale. I guess I can just add the notes in but then it saves to my user library :{
8:41
Nice 🤲
Another Qaulity video mate, thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
I don't use ableton but still interesting
cheers eric
I deleted my initial comment because people might not have taken it as sarcasm... however, I REaLLY wanna urge ANYONE who loves music (even just a listener) to at least attempt to conceptualize some basic properties of sound/ tone. After all theory is simply one’s quest to understand sonic properties. Figuring out what a halfstep sounds like compared to a whole step is the same thing as figuring out what delay or reverb does... and I’d say a concept of fundamental properties of sound (music theory) is about as integral to the pursuit of creating electronic music as electronics themselves.. you can’t have any sort of taste or style without it....is as elemental to this as getting a DAW or a piece of hardware..... it makes absolutely no sense why someone would learn about one half and not the other... because one is a person who wants to express art via music and one is a person who throws paint at a wall, randomly, until someone tells them it looks good and then they take credit for being a painter.... it’s all for the love of music. Much respect ya’ll, YOu gOt tHiS!!! It’s all so simple when you break it down
Thanks for your feedback. I agree, with you that a general understanding of music is important. If you're going to take on music, you will need a general understand of the theory, the technical side, creative side to be a competent producer. That's why I stressed that this was a "cheat" but not a replacement for theory, and I recommended everyone they should still learn theory. I even included a couple RUclips links in the description that are great channels for learning music theory. That said this tool is still "fun" for those early in their journey who want to start jamming right away. My advice would then to analyse those notes and get an understanding of why they sound good.

any one knows a guy who teaches like him logic
Huh. Well aint that some shit. Its like AutoTune for people who can't sing lol
