@@groovining just saw the tune on r/jungle a few days ago and then I came here to check some tutorials and it's in your video as well 😅 small world isn't it
Much thanks for that album, I had your stuff on repeat for so long (even enjoyed pizza with no cheese countless times ahha) but stuff like LOW POLY ROMANCE just never gets old.
Jungle has been my favorite genre since I first heard it around 8 years old. Something about the 90s Jungle sound alwaysalwaysalways gives me the best feelings of both nostalgia and future optimism simultaneously. Will never ever get old. Its like going back to my childhood and into the future together. Anyway LOVIN these videos my friend, subbed. Thank you for these. Very well edited too.
Yea well said mate, I couldn't agree more! I'm literally listening to this tune at the moment and it's like a trip to the future 🚀 - ruclips.net/video/KgY6xj9Nz5s/видео.html Glad you're liking the vid also - heaps more of this vibe coming soon✌️ :)
bro, you are killin it. stoked on the digitone tutorial. i feel like for me, personally, these are an amazing look in. you focus on the single elements, you also show us how they fit into a full jam. really appreciating it my dude. thanks
Thanks so much Ben, really appreciate the comment mate! I love my Digitone. You can keep things wonderfully simple and get great results like this pad or go crazy with the double LFO + Key tracking, mod wheel & Aftertouch! ✌🥷
I love this resurgence also! So many amazing tracks from the 1990s. It all sounds so futuristic and forwards looking, even today. Right on the brink of all this new technology with computers & hardware samplers. I've been going through all those pioneering artists bit by bit on my channel :)✌
My fave too. Sometimes hard to get them feeling exactly right. Its all about a bit of warbling and sutble movement. Vital is cool, I need to use it more actually but always just stuck with Serum for that kind of synth. ✌️😊
Interesting that you highlighted that Chameleon tune, the flip ‘Links’ is probably my fave intelligent DnB tune, and one of my fave all time tunes in any genre. Both sides are great tho!
Haha thanks mate, yea - been slowly leveling up the edits this year - I actually really enjoy trying to come up with ideas for the animatons! I love that links tune also ✌️😊
Cheers Troy! I think you guys will really like the next part in this series on layering breaks. Lots of the stuff we talked about but I've made it really concise. Have a good weekend mate.✌
Appreciate the sub mate. I'm also obsessed with this style of jungle at the moment. Such a dope sound with some many interesting techniques being pionerred! Lots more this year ✌️😊
I've been listening to that Pizza Hotline album for the last couple weeks good stuff. Also, enjoyed the video I don't use the digitone specifically but the concepts apply to other synths.
It's a great album, got lots of views for old-school jungle style which is amazing. Yea all this stuff can be applied to other synths for sure. Its actually very simple in terms of modulation & FXs :)✌
Oh, you nailed it with your tune, too. 👌 Fierce drums, sweet pads. Nice work on the Digitone, sometimes I think I overlook how you can get really great sounds on it with even just a few small tweaks from the default patch! Were you triggering the DT with midi from your DAW, and then re-routing the audio back into a seperate channel? Do you get any latency with this set up?
The Digitone has an amazing sound. Yea for sure, easy to try make the patches too complex as its so powerful. I love all the modulation options with Mod wheel, Pitch Bend, aftertouch. Goes great with a distortion/saturation pedal for the little hint of analog warmth. I was just using overbridge in Logic to trigger the Digitone. It actually runs through Logic's Plugin Delay compensation so latency is minimal. You don't even need to route it, just have the digitone plugin open. I do bounce the tracks down though so I don't lose the performances. Also I sometimes just record the live takes of me playing with the settings live.✌️😊
Hey, thank you for sharing your knowledge so far - this honestly means a lot, I love your channel. I have one particular request though, I can't wrap my head around one specific pad. This pad is from 'Skee Mask - Kozmic Flush'. Do you have any idea how that one was made? I can clearly hear that it's a bunch of sine and saw waves going through filter, but those glassy tones and lush highs.. I can't figure that out. Yet. Thank you!
Yea its a tune that actually, never heard it before! Well I can clearly hear the layering on that pad. The first chord is clean and the second is layered with something more mid/low range. Like a new sound layer entirely to give it that depth. I could get something pretty close to this using FM synthesis on a sine wave, adding sutble harmonics like I did in this video. The key to this sound is in the harmonics, filters, layering on top of a sine/triangle layer. maj min7/9 chords
Really cool ✌️struggled with pads on the digitone before but this sounds really good. One question tho, did you sample the digitone in this project? Because you use a lot more notes than what the digitone can handle, especially if you use unison
I need to make a full video on Digitone pads because it's amazing for them. I often start with more of a subtractive approach. Make a really harmonically rich saw/square sound and then use the filters etc. to smooth it out. Yea it's only 4 voices with 2 unisons so it was missing out a note on all those chords. I didn't actually resample it but only realized whilst editing the video :) ✌
Ha sorry to give you GAS! I do love my Digitone, it's such a fun sound design tool. I use mine a lot and often run it through some analog-style pedals to beef it up. Also resample it into my EMU e5000. It's great for pads and atmos specifically. ✌🥷
haha . if i rest on it the feeling passes ;) but defo food for thought. ok thats good to know. thanks for the reply. great video and channel. @@groovining
Yea i'm the same :) I always write them down on a list, give it a week and come back and see if i really needed that £1500 synth i can't afford. 😂 Glad you're enjoying the channel mate!
The bit where u add the harmonics confused me a little bit, i dont exactly know what ur editing cuz i dont know how ur synth works so could u maybe explain how ur exactly adding those harmonics in depth?
If you break a sine wave down, it's essentially just a pure tone at the fundemental freqeuncy of the note you play. What's cool with sine waves is you can distort them to add more harmonics above the fundemental frequency. In essence you can take a sine and make it more like a square or saw wave. The harmonics control in the Digitone is a little different from using distortion or saturation as its an FM synth but its a similar idea.
great video!! the best sounding ambient 90s like pad is in REASONs malström its not a patch its the wavetable "ambientchord2" its a G note on default its so perfect tape noise lofi like. i tryed to find infos online but didnt get any.. if someone knows how this is made or is it a sample from a classic machiene from this eara..???
In Serum I would use, 2 voice unison on a single sine wave osc. Then dial in FM from B with that on a sine also, Turn the volume of the Osc Off. The pitch warbling is harder in serum but I think it has a chaos modulation source which would be similar to a random wave. Chorus + reverb from the effects and you're basically there. Then add Fm amount & chaos amount to a macro or the mod wheel. I think the distortion + filter drive in Serum is not great for creating harmonics like the Digitone Drive is. To get a more buzzy/driven sound. Try using a saw/square wave in OSC B - Here is a patch example :) drive.google.com/drive/folders/1VGh0aBtZuyeKXihLIxahvCcoCBEBFqcD?usp=sharing
Thanks for featuring my tune ❤
Legend! ❤Such a banger mate - Love that pad, really inspired me to make this vid :)

Nearly 30 years later and still one of my favourite genres. Highly recommend the first Logical Progression as the definitive source.
LTJ Bukem alongside MC Conrad! 🔥✌

I love good looking records, I listen to points in time constantly.
I agree, that laidback rolling style of DnB is heaven!
Been seeing a lot of producer channels covering the resurgence of this genre. And I'm diggin' it like nothing else.
I love this resurgence also! So many amazing tracks from the 1990s. It all sounds so futuristic and forwards looking, even today. Right on the brink of all this new technology with computers & hardware samplers. I've been going through all those pioneering artists bit by bit on my channel :)✌
Me too bro.
Sine pads are just the best. I use vital bc I’m broke and the squeeze function on a sine wave is just MMMMMMMMMM
My fave too. Sometimes hard to get them feeling exactly right. Its all about a bit of warbling and sutble movement. Vital is cool, I need to use it more actually but always just stuck with Serum for that kind of synth. ✌️😊
Ha, you’ve gone crazy with your edits mate. 😂 Quality content, appreciated, as always. 🙏
Interesting that you highlighted that Chameleon tune, the flip ‘Links’ is probably my fave intelligent DnB tune, and one of my fave all time tunes in any genre. Both sides are great tho!

LOVE that peshay set - most played mix on youtube for me
That Peshay set is life! 🌈✌️
Such a great tune, still to this day. 94-97 was such a great era for jungle/DnB ❤
Chameleon was Mark Pritchard 👍🏻
@@robertsmithshair4199 you’re right! I stand corrected, thank you sir
Dropping more gold!

LONG LIVE THE SACRED JUNGLE!
Big ups the Jungle Massive :) !!
Resurgence?! Pfffftt! Every day is 1994 in my house! (Thank you for the awesome tutorial).
Ahah thats the way. Its like living in the past but listening to the future! :) 🚀
One of my favorite genres since it all started, really digging your vibes here ... subbed.
Appreciate the sub mate. I'm also obsessed with this style of jungle at the moment. Such a dope sound with some many interesting techniques being pionerred! Lots more this year ✌️😊
Great genre, great time in music
The best! :) ✌️
Quality of your videos is second to none!
Cheers Ja Da_li! I've been putting lots of work to make them more engaging at the moment so I'm glad you noticed an up in quality :) ✌🥷
Severely underrated channel. Thanks for the detailed tutorial!!
Thanks mate! I think so 2 :) ✌
Your on fire bruv
well done on the 5k mate.... really cool content :)
Cheers AbstractTim! Really appreciate that mate. Onwards to 10,000! :) ✌
The tutorial I didn’t know I needed.
Got to love those warbly sine pads :) ✌
Great video, love the DN is not the most popular digi box but has a following with great tutorials
Yea the Digitakt gets a lot of love but I'm super into my Digitone. Make FM such a pleasure to fk with! ✌
Big up.
Big up bro! :) ✌
Congrats on the 5000 milestone! 👊
Hope your great video's continue! 👍
We made it! Thanks for the support Joni :) First milestone of many on this journey to jungle/RUclips stardom! ✌️🥷

I want to hear someone mixing EBM with those 90's lush ambient pads.
Never heard of EBM before. Intresting vibes. Kinda like industrial techno.🚀✌️
just subbed. love your channel
More than welcome friend. Lots of dnb/jungle related content on here and heaps more coming soon :)✌️

what I hear sound like the beginning of God Chord by Bjorn...

Remeber ADAM F '' Clolurs'' ?
Metropolis & Circles! 🔥✌
Jaxx! Loads of people sleep on that track. Pure Techstep badness. @@groovining
Yea its hard as fuck actually! Its like a techy Metropolis with those same stabs. Tune ✌️
What do you think of the Doc Scott Remix of 'Interstate' by System 7 ?
Never heard it until now but its a tune. Great phasey/filtered pads :)
@@groovining It just gives some sort of unique nostalgia. Glad i came across it through the Space Night Vol 2 comp
Hi mate what have you assigned to the modwheel? Just trying to workout how to do the same thing using an lfo on the computer?
Amp Drive (Overdrive) Synth A level (Fm Harmonics) Synth B Level (Fm Harmonics) LFO 1 depth (Adding more pitch instability) :)
Would you be able to recreate this in Serum, Vital or FM8? I tried to follow along and failed miserably :(
In Serum I would use, 2 voice unison on a single sine wave osc. Then dial in FM from B with that on a sine also, Turn the volume of the Osc Off. The pitch warbling is harder in serum but I think it has a chaos modulation source which would be similar to a random wave. Chorus + reverb from the effects and you're basically there.

@@groovining thank you so much. I'll try that 👍👍👍
what is the very first song that started at :0:00 ?
Just something I made for this video. It has no name, no existance in anything but this vid 😊
Basically slap any synth on an Amen Break beat and they will like it. The rest is splitting hairs. 😴
I think Jungle has a lot more going on than that but yes the people do love pads and amens :)
