    Learn how to use Ableton's reverb to really give Gerald the room he needs. Learn the difference between early reflections, which gives us the character of the room, and the diffusion network, which controls the longer tail of the verb.

    If you're new here, I'm Underbelly and You Suck at Producing. Everyday, I get tons of people on my RUclips channel asking me, hey Underbelly, how do you make your beats so dang fresh?
    That's why I'm offering music production tutorials over the internet, to help take your music to exactly where you want it to be. Whether you're an experienced producer or someone who's just getting started, I’ll be happy to tailor the curriculum to what you want to learn. Whether it be mixing, mastering, music theory, arrangement, recording, or even performing your beats live. So you can go from fart sounds to dopeness.

    My favourite part of this video is how in-depth you went into the Shape knob on the Input side. I've always wanted to know what that does.

      Fruity Loops actually helps here because as you alter it, it shows you what it's doing, because Fruity Loops is made for stupid people, like me.
      What it is doing is adding walls, or points to bounce off of. The more sides, the more round your room is for your children to play safely without running into corners that would otherwise make them realize the limitations of their existence.

    From the Ableton Live 9 manual:
    "The Shape control ”sculpts” the prominence of the early reflections, as well as their overlap with
    the diffused sound. With small values, the reflections decay more gradually and the diffused
    sound occurs sooner, leading to a larger overlap between these components. With large values,
    the reflections decay more rapidly and the diffused onset occurs later. A higher value can sometimes
    improve the source’s intelligibility, while a lower value may give a smoother decay."

    3:05 Shape - This control will help blend the early reflections with the onset of the reverb tail. With this setting lower there will be a “gap” between the early reflections and the onset of the reverb tail. At higher settings the two will blend together, resulting in a smoother reverb sound.

    Question - are VST plugins a load of shit? I.e vs stock ableton effects (that you know how to use). For example, would you really get a noticeably better result on a vocal, using a Valhalla vst reverb vs stock ableton reverb?

    • @fart4192
      @fart4192 4 года назад

      I'm an FL studio user and I can consider switching to Live for the stock plugins alone. Never seen a DAW with such a huge library of quality VSTs. I use ValhallaRoom, ArtsAcoustic Reverb and SP2016. ValhallaRoom is by far my favorite VST of all time with Camelphat3 and Sylenth1. I highly doubt I would ever consider using Live's reverb when I can load up Valhallaroom.

    See you next week is one of my favorite lines of yours now. Also your humor is sharpening. I didn't know you could progress and evolve so well. Nice thumbnail updates too. I think you submitting more vids like this weekly along with livestreams is a win-win to get you those views you love from shorter vids.
