So this is how those supersaws and chords I used to love as a kid (and still love) were created in the 2000's. Now that I have the knowledge (basic knowledge, at least) to create those sounds, combined with online tutorials like yours, I'm going to try and take my production skills to the next level. Thanks for inspiring me to start working on trance music again, I really appreciate it! 😁😁 P.S.: Spire is a great synth, probably my favorite. It's interface is so intuitive!
To be honest, Ambient music uses Reverb even more intensely than Trance. Their reverb decay times can be between 40-70+ seconds lol. But even though Trance reverbs are absolutely gorgeous when done in a professional and great manner, Ambient still does it even better in my opinion, purely because they really focus on creating atmospheres and they are just so purely based on that sound really.
@@demishellen Gostaria de dar uma sugestão. O que você acha de fazer uns tutoriais ensinando como produzir um estilo de TRANCE e HARD TRANCE mais clássico, por exemplo, estilo de Lasgo, Ian Van Dahl, ATB, Dee Dee, Rank1, Pulsedriver, Aquagen, Sven-R-G (Rocco) , entre outros sucessos do início dos anos 2000's, seria incrível. Eu particularmente se fosse começar produzir, gostaria muito de resgatar esse estilo, mesclando, é claro, com coisas modernas, mais sem perder a essência da época na estrutura da música, em fim... espero que compreenda! Valeu!!
Very much appreciate these tutorials. Do you recommend any hardware synths for these types of sounds? Tend to lean towards analog gear... I'm trying to recreate these sounds on a Prophet 12, but doesn't even come close. I was looking at a few different Access Virus machines. Any advice?
Demis, how many seconds reverb tail do you typically use on arp plucks in trance (say for 138 BPM)? It seems to be quite long. Is this to get the epic trance vibe?
In this particular example I did not focus on the effects but more the chords etc. I tailor the reverb usually to ear and speed. Possibly a tut for the future.
Hi Demis, really liked watching your tutorials, are the sounds for Spire still available please as the link is not taking me anywhere unfortunately? Thank you :)
@@demishellen Superb, thank you for the quick response, that is perfect, some great sounds in this and consistently informative tutorials. Thanks again Demis :)
Nice tut thanks. And btw, just how beast of a synth IS Spire? It's been kickin ass for how many years now? I just prefer the warmth and analog feel of it over Serum. Love it.
Serum is great too. If you just use a bit of saturation/distortion in it you can go a very long way in Serum as well. Or of course, you can also use 3rd party effects, but it doesn't mean that any one is better than the other, they're both great synths, both can sound a bit different but the real difference lies more in the versatility side, with Serum being more capable of achieving more experimental sounds alongside traditional ones giving you more LFOs that are also custom drawable and you can also set the oscillators' waveforms to be assigned to the LFO shape as well, custom and powerful wavetable engine + more and Spire being more traditional focused. Depends what you're looking for from a synth I guess.
I agree with you after listening back. When you are immersed in the creation I over look things like that. It has been tamed for now until I start processing the channels.
Good tutorial, but ... man ! you are working with a sound! aren't you? Can't you hear, that in the video your voice is almost unheareble and the music is deafening... please, heare my message... thx

Demis, I think your videos are absolutely great and they inspire me a lot. Absolutely top class!
Lovely melody.

One word: Legendary Tutorial.
Ok, that's 2 words, but either way - awesome!
Thank you 🙏🏼 hope you can take away something from this for you own productions:
Tank good one tha uses cubase👏👏
We need more trance!
Trance need to become popular A G A I N!!!!!
Increasing epicness --> mission accomplished! :)
time to chill and put my feet up now haha. More videos to come on this topic.
Thanks so much for this! Very clear on what we need to learn :D
Very nice tutorial. Always get inspired when i look at your videos. Big thumbs up.
Good to hear, sometimes inspiration is all we need.🙂
Great tutorial and that melody is really nice!!
I am going to develop this idea. It turned out pretty epic before I even realised.
Great video. Nice chords and melody. Can you please tell more about the chords and scale you used here.
Nice one Demis I have been around just not had chance to get on and watch in full ... Great work it's give me some ideas 👍👍👍👍👍👍
😎💪🏽 keep it up.
Release full video tutorial - i'll buy it definitely.
i would actually buy his video tutorial i need knowledge to produce trance lol

Thanks for sharing 🙂 glad you enjoyed the video.
Good stuff.

Great video Demis what about a tutorial with retrologue 2 ?
Did you like the saw created in Retrologue? It's an idea worth exploring.
I like to use retrologue 2 because of its low cpu usage , i make most of my saw sounds on my Roland JD800

Yes, this is true, but not the tachhhhhhh but the haaaaaaaaaaaaaaa ok freshness

Thanks Ross, all free and paid presets are now available on my website www.demishellen.com
@@demishellen Superb, thank you for the quick response, that is perfect, some great sounds in this and consistently informative tutorials. Thanks again Demis :)
That’s sounds amazing 😉 quick question I plan to buy the akai mini professional 25 keys I know you use cubase, would you say it work for Fruity loops
Dan yes it will work with fl. Fl is more powerful than it gets credit for.
@Dan i can confirm that it works wth FL Studio, since im working with FL studio and had the akai before i was getting another keyboard.
what software is this
Nice tut thanks.

imo the reverb is too much. it fills the spectrum to much. Maybe an and send X with some valhalla room would be better?

@@demishellen btw. Thank you for the Video. I know what you mean :D.
