    Despite how immense and immersive an ambient synth track can feel, you’ve probably wondered how the best works avoid sounding repetitive. As it turns out, the smaller details can make the biggest differences, with slight tweaks resulting in carefully drawn-out shifts that are almost imperceptible. Sometimes, you just need something else to transform your output without compromising your core sound. Seem a little open-ended? Daniel Fisher, Sweetwater’s soundscape synthesist, is here to show you how he approaches ambiance and space in sound with five of his preferred pedals to use with keys and synths. Check it out!

      The Meris LVX is incredible "modular" delay. Definitely requiring one spend Time with the settings to create amazing custom patches. It's St in and out with MIDI as well. Despite the slight learning curve, the many preset patches are quite amazing just on their own AND each preset has 2 preset parameter knob assignments if choice that can be saved w the preset so you already cab customize the built-in presets on-the-fly the way you need. Love mine.

      Can you test the LA1176 compressor from UA pedal version on a drum machine? Preferably on the tempest, or drumlogue, maybe Analog Rytm... maybe a shoot out with other compressors (atlas etc.)

    My favourite way to use pedals! Sloer is my current "always on" synth reverb, its fantastic for ambient.
    Great video - Daniel Fisher is such a legend.

    I enjoy Daniel's synth videos because as a never-ending newbie, I get basic understandings without him showing off techie knowledge (A common mistake of teachers of everything everywhere) so I can understand a bit of what he understands, plus a few tips on how to use them

    Fantastic, Dan, Thank you for great lesson. I would say Ambient music creation is something we All can do. Ambient music is intrinsic part of us all in some form or fashion. Every artist, at some point, wants to back fiwn frim all the technicality and just Explore their rig by letting things ring out or open spacial fx wide and just float. Whether they release that material or not is another matter, but we sll need to explore the depths of sound and space. Even though Eno may have come up w it (I think) by playibg two of the same record simulaneously abd lettibg them drift apart, I think the result can be acheived with Delays and Spacial fx much the same way. I really got a lot from whatcyou were saying about how to place the pedals in the chain (makes Perfect sense) when bypassing as you say. 👍 Also the portion concerning what scales or chords to feed into the delatys to get usable repeats and various repeating chordal overlays. I'm heavily inspired to try this technique out. I usually just think of the rhythm and space aspect... Great stuff here. Thanks!

    Stereo is so important to ambient music, stereo sound design and/or stereo effects. I use synths that have panning of individual oscillators so on a 3 oscillator synth with different envelopes for each oscillator I get a flow of slowly changing stereo images where then you can add more stereo through effects of just add mono effects. I route my effects through the mixer with monaural in stereo returns, so if I add effects it is layered over the original stereo signal depending on mix and can be stereo or mono effects. This saves me money where I can use the same effect device for many synths.

    • @maxtolerance9750

      Returning stereo effects to a mixer avoids the thing not mentioned in the video - most stereo in stereo out effect pedals sum the input to mono before adding their own stereo effect. So when you run a chain of stereo effects engaged you are probably only hearing the last one in stereo.

    • @sweetwater
      @sweetwater  9 месяцев назад +5

      Hi maxtolerance. I'm finding that, more often nowadays, a stereo pedal that has both Left and Right Input jacks keeps (at least) the dry input signals in stereo, and often processes the stereo pedal in true stereo as well. The more important thing is that, when the pedal is in Bypass, your previous pedal will pass through in true stereo. -_Daniel_

  • @jamesrider773
    @jamesrider773 2 месяца назад +1

    Had the same dilemma, do I want to use mono or stereo pedals. Wanting to use them both at the same time. So try using the JHS Buffered Splitter Micro Single In / Dual Out Pedal. They’ll let you send a signal to the stereo and mono at the same time.

    Do they make a large Freak synthesizer ? that sure is a lot of peddles.

    • @GizzyDillespee
      @GizzyDillespee 9 месяцев назад +4

      That's the largest of the 2 models, so far. There's speculation that, at some point, Arturia might make a Super Freak. It's only speculation, so far.
