Hi, great, I also use lmms, a great software for making music
I saw you on a synthwave video somewhere 🤨
@@JesseOrSomething Which one?
@@flickeringscreens ah I can’t remember lol, but considering your profile picture I’m probably right lol
@@JesseOrSomething Yeah
I know nobody is probably gonna see this and this vid came out a while, but I'd just like to let you know about another way you can sidechain. There is an effect you can add called sidechain compressor, and you just need to link a peak controller to the S/C level, you also would need to put the base effect at zero. from there you can adjust all sorts of parameters and I just think this way gives you a bit more control.
Damn bro thanks
Can you create busses/ aux/ sends in lmms?? -Can't quite find any info on that...
@@boobo3763 Opening the mixer, you can hit a + button to add a new mixer, and then when you open up a VST there is a box labeled FX, change the number to the number on the mixer. On each of them there is a white up arrow, hit that to edit the send
@@phonetyx Hey, thanks a BUNCH!! One thing that I just discovered in LMS that appears to be a deal breaker, though -The undo function doesn't seem to apply to changes you make in plugins -This is a big deal to me because I'm constantly experimenting with different plugins. Reaper has this feature -"Undo" works for all plugin parameters -but, Reaper is a B*TCH to work in. Really tough program if you ask me... If there is a way to program the undo function to take care of all of that, then i would be much more inclined to give LMMS a serious go....
@@boobo3763 yeah sorry i dont think LMMS has undo for plugins. as much as i love LMMS there are a lot of flaws with it. at least its free though. as for other daws i dont really have any good recommendations bc i do all my stuff in LMMS. you could possible look into FL bc thats the most similar to LMMS. beyond that i dont really have any insight. good luck though
BTW you can clone stuff more easly on the piano roll by selecting stuff with CRTL and draging it with SHIFT
In terms of filter, I prefer the calf filter. It offers more controls over how your filter can behave and how it sounds
And as for sidechaining, there is another way I do it. It's more manual, but it offers so much more controllability. You use the 3xOsc, make the drum pattern in 1/16, throw peak controller on there, mute effect, play with knobs, and then like in the video, you connect sidechain controllers to that.
I love that you explain things and show them. I'm so new to this all and everyone just says "this effects this" and moves on and doesn't explain what it means. You are very helpful! thank you!
I’m glad you enjoy. I will work on making sure to do that every time I show how to do something
Thanks for making this video. LMMS was actually rotting in my pc.
@J SaLhia Beats Lol man I'm now using Ableton and FL XD
Awesome video! By the way, you can use shift + T to open the pitch bend window
Dang I didn’t know that. Thank you!
@@MalachiCorliss No problem! Thank you for making the video! I didn't even know about side-chains till I watched!
I actually started using LMMS for nearly two years now (this was during the peak of Covid during 2020) when I got my Laptop. Despite watching various tutorials, I never knew about the sidechains and 2x2 Plate/EQ. Keep it up.
Thanks for the info! I plan to share more from time to time
Hello! I don't use LMMS (I don't do music actually), but your video was top notch nonetheless. Just a thought, I found that the background music was a tad too loud at times, but maybe that's just me, and anyway your video was still top notch. Kudos, and thank you!
Appreciate the feedback! I’ll work on it for the next video
Thanks boss man! This video really helped me out making better sounds also moving the song over used to take me forever now I can do with few key strokes!!
Awesome! Glad it was helpful for you!
Yo!! This is by far the best lmms tutorial ever ......Thanks for the tips !!!!
Thanks for showing how to dupe entire sections of a track, been using LMMS for years and somehow didn't know this. 😅
FINALLY!!! SOMEONE FINALLY FIGURED OUT HOW TO DO A GHOST DRUM!!!
i did not know sidechaining was possible this way, you have completelly changed the way i use lmms now thank you
Nice one and rare video to find👌🏻👌🏻 hope you make more of tutorials even for music
I never knew you could pitch bend like that! Thank you!
Honestly expected to know most of the things in here but turns out I still had a lot to learn.
And side chain part was amazing
i used ableton and loved it until my PC died. i fix computers but the mobo died and i've been broke since the pandemic began. i use Linux on a flash drive on an old PC with a dead hard drive. LMMS helps, the only distro i could get to run was MX linux, and it's not even persistent. LMMS can host most of my fav VSTs in WinE, but i find the workflow a NIGHTMARE. Reaper works GREAT but this finicky antix distro won't load dlls so i have to use .so vst instruments. i wrangled my reaper so it's a lot like ableton, but i took some acid tonight hoping to make better friends with LMMS and i stumbled across your video. i made this comment before i watched...
Did you look at Ardour and Zrythm for alternatives? Have to mention zrythm still not being at a stable release so a bit crashy last time I checked, but otherwise nice.
Great channel man
Thanks man! Appreciate you watching!
After 2 years I keep to learn with this new vid
It's really helpful 👌🏼 Thanks buddy!🙌🏼
@MacoTheProducer
What is it that LMMS is missing (disregard sound-recording, we know that :) of _tools_ , that you find in f.i. Abbleton?
That would be interesting to know in the continued development of LMMS.
One thing i dare say we in LMMS do better than the commercial DAWs is to _listen_ to our users :p, and actually implement new features that are being asked for, _by the users_ .
The Best video what I ´ve seen of LMMS,Amazing !!!! My Best Like for you.
I´m suscribe.
Thx man, best tips and tricks video i have seen 👍🏼 you really explained the things i was searching for bro
Pitch bend automation does not work on the Opulenz 2xOsc Synth. There is also glitchiness with VSTs and external plugins. I am in the process of compiling a list of plugins and VSTs that interface well with LMMS. I’ve been using it for over a decade and I’m still learning new shit. Once you get up the fairly steep learning curve, it begins to become much more intuitive.
Once you learn global automation and side-chaining, your sound will get to a whole new level. After using FL and Acid for many years, I can confidently say that LMMS is on par with both, save for a few limited features. The biggest one being no onboard recording capability in the recent LMMS builds. That’s not a problem though; I just record into audacity, then import it into LMMS via sample track.
I LOVE LMMS 😊😁
me too fam
thank you for this video!
Thanks for this video
Very nice tips, thank you!
Thanks a lot! Great tips 🔥 and cool video-style! 😎
What damping does on reverb is gets rid of higher frequencies. High dampening means the high frequencies will end faster. I think the Bandwidth actually changes the frequency spectrum the reverb effects, it's not the same as a mix or Dry/Wet knob.. And blend is the same as Mix or Wet.
And yeah, tail is how long the reverb lasts.
Yes you are correct. The bandwidth on that plugin refers to how many frequencies it will be reverberating at the same time, and no it’s not the same as a dry/wet knob.
@@MalachiCorliss Cause that's how you described it in the video, maybe just to simplify it for people who are beginners
Seriously every time I want to get into lmms I mess around for about an hour, then watch some tutorials and get overwelmed by all the options effects etc. and turn off the PC lol. I just can't seem to get into it.
Bro i made a mistake while making music but i cant come one time back please help
Dear Malachi Corliss
Hi, My name is Sean Q Kim, and I'm trying to get started w/LMMS. I really liked this video of yours, it really helped me a lot! (4 minutes ago I didn't even know what Sidechain was and looking back at it now..) Anyway, I have to ask you... while I'm practicing, can I use the notes that you built up in this video? Just to.. mess about with it, and practice some of my skills? Please check this comment..

Hi, thanks for the info I've just started learning this daw. I've been a producer for about 12 years now and a signed artist on beatport. I use Fl studio and my computer fked up, lost everything. I totally agree lack of tools on lmms. My main problem with lmms is I can not find a tool to cut a melody, so say I only want to use the first 4 beats of a 8 bar bassline or melody, then progress to the full 8, I would like to know if this is actually possible on lmms?
Feeling the pain bro, I usually just clone the track and delete the ones I don't need. Or you can simply drag and cut those unneeded bars out with the little arrows
can you reinstall fl studio?
@@tux7k no I lost installer aswel serves me right really, should Have backed up me shit. Any way in the end I go fl12 I had fl9 before. So all is good now and have backed it up just in case.
@@DJProducerTomHale that's awesome to hear that you got fl12 but i'm pretty sure you can just redownload the installer
@@DJProducerTomHale Well you go to image-line and re download the software. How did FL Studio destroy your computer?
my brain is gonna explode
Production quality of someone with 500k subs wow
Someday I hope so
THANKS, KEEP MAKING VIDEOS ON LMMS
Nice job man.
one question how delete quick all patterns in arrange field ?I must klick every pattern to delete this .
I also switched to Ableton for at least 3 months.
Try Alpha version of lmms
quick question , is it doable to merge 2 different projects together?
Me: *Subscribed*
10 seconds later: "I changed to Ableton.."
Me: *Unsubscribed*
Anyway, nice tips, Resubscribed.
Just tried to set up lmms with printed instructions by my side...but as I proceeded to the first instruction ...I was confounded as I COULDNT READ THE FONT’ CUZ IT WAS MICROSCOPIC!!!
How are you guys able to READ THE FONT!????
How can FONT SIZE be enlarged? Looked everywhere....but no solution anywhere!!! Should I get a MAGNIFYING GLASS???? Wow.
There are a couple computers I’ve seen with this issue. You could change your computer screen resolution scale to 125% or 150% instead of 100%
@11:45 Sidechaining
Can you pls tell me how to open kontakt in lmms,iam unable to open it.
How to connect your Head phones or ear phones in lmms
so is there any modularity to these blocks?
Like editing one block and it'll automatically apply to all identical blocks on the track?
Unfortunately I don’t think so. One of the disadvantages of LMMS I’m afraid
@@MalachiCorliss hm, i guess im too much of a programmer to be used to that kind of stuff.
Maybe someday i'll get around to making a plug-in
Hello : do you know the way to use BLUEARP vst inside a track of LMMS ? I searched, but I didn't succeed...
How many tracks are we use in 1 recording ?
It can be anywhere from 30-80. Depends on how complex and long the track is
¡Que pelazo!
I got bamboozled in ZynAddSubFX when I tried to make something up and then I realised I don't know what most of the knobs and buttons do lol
Was a bit confused with Vital too, Helm is another one
Is there a video about how to work with those?
I will make a video soon!
Cool but what about Ardour?
cakewalk free t0 and can record and also pack with vsts and also guitar fx and amps butt better have a strong computer
lmms needs to take lessons from fl studio and ableton and add better sample integration
dudes lookin like producer peter parker over here
How’d you know?
If possible then make one trap beat in lmms
Bet
ABLETON has better tools. and a waaaay better workflow. but hell, LMMS is free, and so is linux, and so was this laptop i have both on!! gonna pay for reaper though, it's pretty awesome, i have it wrangled to work like abletonbut it took many hours to make the templates. see, i have carpal tunnel syndrome so clicking is like murder to me... trying to avoid that. way too much clicking needed in LMMS. i don't even use a mouse, i have a logitech wireless trackpad, but i'm old and it still kills me to click stuff. a word of warning to you youngsters. ABANDON THE MOUSE. SWITCH TO A TRACKPAD. CLICKING WILL RUIN YOUR LIFE WHEN YOU GET TO MY AGE (CLOSE TO 60)
Have you looked at ardour or zrythm for (A)GPL'ed linux daws?
how to tapestop on lmms
Automation track connected to tempo and global pitch.
Lmms Copy that FL studio 😂
i mean good for us broke mfs🤷♂️🤷♂️
