First like, then watch, because with Alex you just know you're going to learn new shit. Great tutorial, as always!
Haha, thanks for the support!
Love the ostinato bits at 20:50. Be great to have a tutorial that focuses on different types of ostinato and staccato patterns.
Excellent, I was hoping for a new video to watch with my morning coffee :D Love your work Alex!
Fantastic video Alex. This has really evolved since your twitch stream! Excellent!
I learn a lot everytime but a special mention for this one.
You are incredible man. Amazing work.
you're knoweledge is endless
helped me a lot in a cover
This is my new favorite channel
5:07 - I have the same problem and my girlfriend is not happy about it :D :D
Ok that made me laugh a bit too much.
I feel I'm getting somewhere every time I watch one of your videos, great job, I'm grateful because you take time to explain a little bit of your knowledge.. It would be great if you explain the process of mixing and mastering one day.. much love my friend
Cheers!
There's a few videos on mixing, this one is the more insightful when it comes to my process: ruclips.net/video/cQzj_jHLuUE/видео.html
And there's a series of more detailed tutorials on a few mixing units here: ruclips.net/p/PLXsgPw9BIOXFhJdNf2Ggm985ceZWp73S4
Mastering tutorials will come eventually.
another awesome tutorial, thanks!
Great tutorial, man! Thanks.
The emotion felt with that intro 👊 ive just found your channel (subbed) i make grime and hip hop beats but want to start making trailer music
Good video Alex, as always! Thanks for all the effort you put in every video! See you^^
Haces muy buenos video.... Excelente, saludos.
Oh yeees! Thanks Alex!
how am i just now finding you, you're rad! great advice and vid!
Love your videos man
Incredible work. SUB!
Thanks Alex..
Thank you!
Alexcellent 😊
Yeaa Man I mean Yeaaaaa(lol) I'm from Sri lanka and remember me That I'm going to make a huge Revolution in Sri lanka because of you♥️🌺
Probabilmente la tua miglior traccia finora.
You should do a video on the blue planet soundtrack, been obsessed with it lately, don't know why it works so well but it does (specifically the track A Forest Awakens)
Ooo bro you are very good working in fl studio 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Nice😍👍👌
Hey Alex, Love your work man, would you throw some light on what libraries we can use or where we could find the lush ambient pads, synth pads, thank you in advance.
13:56 that made me laugh so hard ahahahahahahah
This is an incredibly well-made course, I learned so much from this!
I just have one question though: why do we need to put that much delay? I have the impression that the notes start playing something like halfway through the note. Why not just start the note a bit later?
Hey Alex
Would you please do a video explaining how to do some scary orchestral songs like for horror movies and jump Scares..
It will be another 3-4 hours of studying practical theory taken from my life...
Hey brother you create great music ....but i have one question can you make video on arrange and make group in fl studio like how you group strings and make pattern in fl studio
Which pack do you use for the risers and impacts?
Just curious,Do you write with head phones.I just tried it. What a difference you can hear every nuance, of coarse I have a great set Audio Technica ATH M50.I can really pin point my hits and volumes and Expression CC11.and then I bring it up in my monitors.JBL's
hey Alex. Why do you use Stereo Enhancer instead of Fruity Balance for automating volume?
That is a good question!
There's no reason, I'm just dumb and forgot Fruity Balance does the same thing while probably using less RAM haha.
Curious how long it takes you to make something like this? My main problem isn't coming up with ideas but getting them to sound as good as this in a reasonable amount of time
If I remember right then he once said that he at least would spend 70 hrs+ on a track.
I'm waiting for tutorial form scratch :)
It's already out: ruclips.net/video/wrEJEyBeU7o/видео.html
Alex - this is great stuff! I love your creations. Your usage of "arpeggios" will confuse people, however, as the term has an established classical meaning of chord tones (i.e. 1-3-5-1-3-5, etc). You are using it for pulsing rhythms on a single note and for scale line melodic rhythmic lines. Neither usage are properly "arpeggios". It seems as if you are using the term to speak of rhythmic movement. Actually, the Ostinato at 21 min. is an actual example of "arpeggios".
not gonna lie this sounds like Ahsoka theme from the clone wars
Hey Alex, you mention in the beginning that this is from a track you have composed on a live stream a couple of weeks ago before this video. Is that live stream recorded and available somewhere so we could watch the composition process?
-> ruclips.net/video/wrEJEyBeU7o/видео.html
Awesome! Thanks!
Reminds me of Crysis
This might be a dumb question, but what are all the stereo enhancer's, Param EQ and Moving EQ for? I dunno what that is, is it like using the modulation wheel? Or is it just to increase the volume? What do they do?
Another thing is, how can you use modulation if you don't have a modulation wheel? I've an electric piano which doesn't have a modulation wheel which is really annoying... Gonna buy a keyboard in the future which has a modulation wheel, but I really need the modulation wheel right now haha. Thanks for the great tutorial Alex! All I know about writing film music etc did I learn from you! Thanks so much for all what you do!
I just use those during the mixing stage to manage volumes and EQ sometimes.
As for the mod wheel, you can simply link the modulation / dynamics knob to another slider on your keyboard with the Override Generic Link function.
Alex Moukala ah thanks a lot! So I just tried using that function by following a tutorial, it didn't work. This electric piano is like from the 90's, my dad bought it back then. I dunno if it's too old. The only wheel on this piano is the master volume. I guess it doesn't work for this piano sadly.
You are a mosnter (as a music composer).
SUper. What is the Arps libraries ?
Nexus Hollywood 2 Core.
Love those arps, though I'm not sure if the library is worth a buy just for those (they're a very tiny part of the whole pack)
@7:48 The word you're looking for is www.thefreedictionary.com/compelling
can you talk about how much money you can make from cinematic and trailer music , background score
Hey Alex, I'm an animator and vfx artist. For each track are there sample packs to help you? I'm creating a 1-2 minute piece and I'm trying to figure out how to get this type of music, but not necessarily play every single note. It's been years since I played/made any music haha. I'm not sure that's possible with little to no music theory.
If you mean sample packs with loops and things of such, there are things like Action Strings, Action Strkes, Sonuscore The Orchestra etc.
But I don't use those personally
@@AlexMoukala Yeah I need something timed to my animation but not necessarily a unique compostion. Thanks Alex, I'll check those out!
What about the Spitfire Symphony Orchestra ?
Never tried any Spitfire libraries so far. :)
Can you upload the song on Spotify ?
I will once it's done!
$400?! omg. I just spent $3k from audio imperia AND native instruments Komplete 13. Proud owner but to structure it is still a slight problem.
Would really wanna group up with you for some epic music if you would like to ^^
Let me know if you’re interested
first
Your pc uses 14 gigs of RAM...omg
Hey man first you want to make the start from scratch video....I am a beginner I can't understand anything from your channel ......
