    Another great trick inside the realm of music theory is to create your midi channel with chords on it, hit legato to sustain all your chords so they're nice n long, then apply an arpeggiator device to the channel. your sustained chords are now arpeggios! turn some knobs on the arpeggiator until you get something you like! bonus tip: select all the notes in your midi clip, hold shift and press up or down arrow to change the octave

    Instead of sample tuning the 808 its easier to place the 808 on a midi track using a simpler or sampler. if the sample is in C then when you play a C on the keyboard it will play C. If the sample is a different note then you tune the sample using the transpose knob in the sampler. I find this to be far more efficient :)

    On a scale of 1-10, how often would you say someone uses music theory in dubstep? I'm particularly interested in genres like brostep, so i assume you'd probably use some music theory in melodies, but what about drops? Buildups? What's your advice on when/where to use music theory?

    Someone told me that a half step up is always the dankest for bass music. Is the half step "rule break" just really based around the root note just like you showed though or are there more ways to add half steps in minor keys?
    Also, another vote for VCTRE if you are keeping track. Amazing skills reverse engineering all of these sounds dude thank you for sharing your knowledge!

    • @BuntingMusic
      @BuntingMusic  3 года назад +2

      you can claim that the half step up is from the phrygian mode, the half step down could be said to be from the harmonic minor scale, ‘japanese’, ‘arabic’ and other cultural scales also use many half steps
      generally you can get away with half steps as long as your resolution is concise
      and gotchu in vctre

    Anyone who can answer this who knows as a fact, I’d appreciate it. So 1:52…literally any and all music follows these and only these scales? This is literally like the key to all music?? Any piece of music ever has to be one of these scales, and any one of those pieces of music will only be using the notes within one of these scales?
    I’m especially curious about that last part…when you make some music (unless im guessing you do a key change or something) you’re limited to nothing beyond the notes in one scale? You’re basically not allowed to ever use more notes than what’s shown in any one of these scales? Not saying that’s a bad thing though it’s nice to know there’s such an easy guideline if this is true.

    • @BuntingMusic
      @BuntingMusic  2 года назад

      this video simplifies it to the bare minimum for newbies, you can’t go wrong following these rules but there’s more out there to explore regarding scales harmonies and all that jazz do more research!!!

    one suggestion for those hunting for notes/scale of samples: the tuner in ableton's audio fx or tunebat.com are good resources too.
    great video for those not too familiar with theory and working on a foundation; you're hitting all the bas(s)es (shit pun lolol) yung producers need!
