Finding this channel is the best gift Google's algorithms have given me in a long time.
Really appreciate that so much!
Where have you been all my life K.Hart!? So very glad I found you! I can’t stop watching your videos 🤩 It’s so very gratifying to finally have an awesome multi talented Ableton Live teacher, this is pure gold! Very well done, thanks so much for sharing. Big love and Respect.✨
Haha thank you so much for checking out the videos! I love teaching and I love music, so I figured why not share it on here? I'm glad the videos are helpful!! :)
You are just amazing. You go in depth but not so much to overcomplicate your explanations. The amount of information in this video is mind blowing to anyone who really wants to learn how to make music. Well said K.Hart
I really appreciate that! Thank you so much for watching and the kind feedback 🙂
To me as a beginner this is soooo helpful! Great video.
That’s awesome! Thanks so much for checking out the video 🙂
I’m loving your tutorials (I’m the guy that asked about Wavetable lol). Would you be able to do a quick tutorial on side chaining and your typical parameters? Kick + bass was sounding so clean in this tutorial! Great stuff 😀
Hey, thanks 🙂 I think I’ve shown my settings before, but it’s usually a pretty fast attack to duck the bass and then the release is kind of up to taste. I like to make it as fast as I can without it creating any bad clicks or pops on the side chained channel.
this was great K, thank you for sharing 🙏
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks 😊
Awesome video ❤❤. Thanks for this tutorial. Very helpful!
Thanks so much!
Lovely track!
Thanks so much!
Really enjoy your tutorials!!
Thank you! 😁
Its nice seeing ladies making music and I've noticed you do things I never would have thought to do.
I loved your video and thank you so much for making it.
I'm a FL Studio user :P
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for checking it out even though you use FL. Most of it is all the same 😁
@@khartbeats We are all the same I also have Ableton but its a lite version.
Prefer FL Studio due to really good piano roll.
Nothing wrong with Ableton it does a dam good job.
All the best for 2024.
@@darrenhirst9900true. I’m excited for Ableton 12 just so I have a piano roll closer to the one in FL 😂 happy new year 🙂
@@khartbeats Why don't they just nick FL Studio piano roll lol.
New year happy.
Seriously vibey.... 👌
Thanks so much!
Awesome track!! Great video, thanks. You rock !!
Thanks so much 😊
Good stuff. Ive been producing for a hot minute, but still find helpful stuff in your videos. Looking forward to your future videos.
Happy to hear that! Thanks so much for checking out the videos.
Great stuff , good advice
Thanks so much!
Really good tutorial and nice song! :) thank you K Hart
Thanks so much for checking it out 🙂
Thanks you are a good teacher and i like your low-key manner
Thank you!
You are gold.
Thank you🙏 I usually duplicate my 4 or 8 bars and then subtrackt the parts I don't want. Noticed your filter automation on the drums on your latest release "Alone in public" - lots of great tips here👍
That’s a great way to do it, too. And yes, filter automation on the drums! Thanks for listening! 😊
Posted just 33 minutes ago... And I am all in for the video, as I know it will be awesome like always :)
And Happy New Year to you and your fam !
Thank you so much! Happy new year to you, too 🙂👍
Thanks!
Hope the video was helpful! Thank you so much for the super thanks! Very much appreciated 🙂
Thanks for making this.
Thanks for watching 🙂
Sinister track! I was wanting for more. I guess I'll have to hit the after-hours 💛
Thanks!! One of these days I’ll just embrace my dark house/EDM producer tendencies and start releasing this stuff 😂 I need more hours in the day!
not surprised to hear that you are also a real instrument musician ;)
I need to start incorporating my live instruments more. Getting an electric violin is next on my list.
@@khartbeats looking forward to this
Nice quick work of this one. Tasteful track. I do like the drop out of sound before full song kicks in. The sword swooshing sound during silence was a nice touch. at least I think that's what it was
Thanks so much! I let a bit more of the ambient sample come through during the silence so it was probably from that 🙂
Great video. Really like how you started with just enough elements so that the arrangement and automation could really shine. I also like how you added a few extra bits here and there but not too much. All in all, I take away some inspiration and learnt something....I need to automate much more! Big thanks! Keep up the good work.
Thanks so much! Really appreciate the feedback!
Ah, you did mention ideas for videos. Something interesting to me and something I've struggled with. With services like loopcloud a splice, we have access to a lot of sample material. But one thing that I am very interested in is how to make use of vocal samples in my tracks and I think that's most interesting with the longer vocal samples which could be 32 bars or so in length. To me, it's a bit like having access to a singer but I don't even know where to begin with longer samples like this or how to stop them being repetitive. Feels a lot like one shot vocal samples are very ready to use while this is not easy. Bit like training for how to actually deal with a vocal track. Anyway, sorry for the poor description...
Interesting. I came upon this video by chance. I started producing orchestral filmmusic during the pandemic and am now taking glimpes into other genres like disco, ambient and EDM. I couldn't imagine creating a 4 bar nearly full produced loop and kind of "extrapolate" to a whole song.
As you said, arrangement differs wildly among genres. I think filmmusic may be the genre with the least amount of rules/guidelines but most complex and widest array of possibilities. I always try to sketch my ideas in the DAW with 2 or three melody and harmony MIDI tracks for the whole piece. After that I work out part after part. In every part I build layer upon layer from melody, counter melody, harmony, ostinato, texture and rhythm. Of course not everyting in every part. There would be no sense of dynamics at the level of the whole piece.
I have to learn more about filter and effects including their automation. It seems to not only be an ear-candy type of thing but a vital component of arrangement itself.
I’m a violinist, so I 100% agree that anything cinematic or orchestral or something along those lines would be vastly different. Dynamics and emotional response come from arrangement as well as techniques like filtering. They’re all good tools to have!
🙏Thank you so much. You inspire me in a few things. Awesome Idea (may obvious) to group all and make a FX BUS from it. I will copy that! Most of the time i struggle to start an arrangement. Good to know how you start with. Thank you😊 Great Video
I’m happy the video is helpful!! Thanks so much! 🙂
Thanks for this one, I found it helpful and it reminds me that my workflow might need some tweaking in regards to EQing as you go.
I always try to mix or EQ at least a little as I go. Thanks for watching!
Nice
So sick! I’ve been wondering how people make their tracks move so much. I’ll start practicing this! Do you have videos on how you start a song like this? Where do you prefer starting? Chords? Thanks for everything you put into this video :)
I’m glad this was helpful! Most of my other videos where I make a track from scratch are the process I go through each time. I usually start with chords. Thanks for checking out the video!
Thank you
Hope it was helpful with drums and overall song choices for adding variation.
@@khartbeats yes thanks
Nice.
Thanks!
thanks! if you ever wanted to do a video on eq that would be very helpful!
Thanks! Definitely want to do some mixing and EQ stuff down the line.
Hi there! You create equalent educational videos and good music in different styles,it is rare combination if You asking me :) Consider to make longer versions of the music demos and release them.Keep up the good work!
Thanks so much! I'd like to work on releasing more of these as full, polished songs...just need to find the time haha :)
Another great video K Thankyou.
Do you think you could upload a video on some audio effects and maybe your custom audio effect rack? Just a thought. Love ur channel
I’m going to be working on a video about some of my favorite Ableton effects soon. Thank you! 🙂
Hey, I love your videos thanks so much for sharing. I was wondering, where did you learn how to produce?
Thank you! I’ve played various instruments for a long time so most of my theory knowledge and stuff like that comes from there. Producing in Ableton has taken a lot of time experimenting and learning from others here on RUclips.
@@khartbeats Thanks for the reply, that's very cool. I'm looking forwards to learning more from you, keep up the great work!
🙌💗
I'm using Studio One and my question is, should I use the reverb and delay with the bus channel or should I put them as insert plugins on each channel.
That really kind of depends what effect you want. Channel effects will start to dissolve your original sound if you continue to turn the dry/wet up. Busses are great for subtle effects or if you want a bunch of tracks having the same effect.
@@khartbeats thanks
Some great techniques here. What spec Mac or PC are you using?
Thanks! I think it’s a Dell Aurora Ryzen 12 or 13. Can’t remember which one offhand.
@@khartbeats Ok. Thanks.
Could you show some sad deep stuff? Maybe some dark piano with strings or guitar arpeggio
It's very frustrating that nowadays people put a weak beat on bells and think that they are producing cool music and teach on youtube :(
I can work on something like that. Thanks for the suggestion.
It's giving buck bucks car advert soundtrack
How long do it take in general to arrange a track like this?
Probably a few hours. For me, it depends from track to track.
@@khartbeats For me arranging becomes boring very soon ... I have my "main loop" and after that I lack of ideas how to arrange. Sometimes I keen to arrange a whole track other times the main loop is ready to be arranged but keeps rotting on my disk ;-.)
