    This is genuinely one of the best "here's how to do this" videos for intermediates and experts that I've ever seen. It's sooo hard to find good tutorials for people who aren't beginners, but you just showed us the plugins, explained briefly what they do, played through a bunch of examples, and gave us a ton of quick ways of doing it for people who know what they're doing but just haven't found the answer yet. I'll be experimenting with these techniques soon. Thank you!

    another colorization method i like to use is using soothe2 with the sidechain input as a chord, then with sharpness all the way up and on delta, kinda similar effect to the match eq ones but more convenient since it just runs in realtime without having to record the audio first!

    With the Vocodex method you can also right click on the graph to enable the hold option and also put on the snap function to snap to any select key so it somewhat acts like the FFT tuners in the sense it will be filtering out the sounds to the graph, which if done according to a scale or what not, will be colorized just like that.
    Just make sure the amount of bands selected is 96, which is pretty much amount 8 octaves of the entire keyboard. Its pretty dope and can just be layered on anything really.

    The way you synthesize your tracks is magical. I used to listen to you on monstercat 10 years ago since i was a kid, and the incredible way you create your sound is almost like an unmistakeable signature. Anytime im blindly listening to mixes and one of your tracks comes up i can instantly recognize that you made it despite hearing it for the first time. All the best man, honestly, your songs are jewels decorating everyone's playlists.

    • @soundbody_official9552
      @soundbody_official9552 Год назад +4

      I think that's one of the biggest hallmarks for any musician, no matter if it's electronic or whatever...having your own signature sound. You can immediately recognize Ganja White Night, Dirt Monkey with his weird monkey signature, Cliff Burton's bass lines, idk I'm just naming off random artists that pop up in my head but you can definitely hear Au5's signature sound that sets him apart from other producers who try to copy his sound or sound like other artists.
      Even visual arts you can tell when it's Picasso's work versus someone who is trying to copy his style.

    @Gnurklesquimp2 Год назад +1

    Bass music or otherwise, one of the biggest challenges is making patches for chord sounds that are far from just being stacks of the same timbre at different intervals, ''coloring'' is a genius concept. I've done some cool stuff with Harmor too, it has a prism that let's you displace harmonics with key-track, great for the resynthesis/wavetable kinda stuff it can do too. Try this: Side A = square, Side B = every other harmonic to make a saw together, shift the harmonics that imply major down a semitone (Sines for reference), put vibrato on side B. You get a gritty, full yet clean pseudo-distorted minor sound, it's super cool. Splitting the harmonics of a saw and affecting them separately is awesome in general!

    Dope as always Austin. :D
    Also as an extra one for anyone reading. If you use Harmor at all you can make color bass sounds by going into the global EQ and right clicking the wave type to "Hold", then you can turn off certain frequencies according to any scale you like. Just pay attention to the top right part with the information window in FL (Or I assume equivalent in other DAWS) And since Harmor is an additive synthesis type of plugin turning off those frequencies will no have latency and acts more like a pre-gain per frequency.
    The only downsides is it can take a bit of time to do this for the entire global EQ section since it doesn't auto-snap to any of those notes and playing notes that are turned off can be sometimes a little inharmonic, but the up side is you can save the files so you only have to do it once.
    Plus the dope thing is with Harmor you can ofc resample anything. So basically insta-color bass with basically *anything* 😏

      for this technique you can also try nasko's "n-color" snap heap rack. does same thing but with kilohearts plugins, saves your cpu and time. it's an effect rack and not synth (like harmor), so you can slap that on any sound in seconds without resampling
