@@OwenTheGeek hello again sir. I have a some nice alpha juno wave tables, of the pwm-saw and pwm-square. I wonder if youd like them, and you could do a very very very real hoover sound. Please tell me where to send.
If only every tutorial for the synth was like this. It's incredible to have an explation as to why a certain knob is tweaked instead of "we set x to yy%..." the biggest of ups
Love your tutorials Owen, I hope you are inspired to make more of them. Learning how to reproduce the sounds I love on synths/plugins I can afford really helped re-kindle my passion for producing music. FWIW - I would have no problem watching adverts if you change your mind about monetising your YT channel.
The way you explain the synth process is helpful. You explain the nature of the sound & the origin + you’re transparent about the variables and you don’t just suggest an arbitrary setting to copy.
You know what my man? Another (big thing) from Klubbheads are their SG Bass that they used multiple times in the productions. Are you able to pull that off? Examples are: Klubbheads - Raise Your Hands (Club Mix) Boys R Us - In My Mind (Greenfield Mix)
I'm doing exactly everything you do up until the 2 minute mark and it sounds completely different. It sounds a lot less crisp and a lot more "blurred." I found that turning the transpose a couple octaves more down helps but it still doesn't sound the same. Could you help me? Does it matter that I'm using Ableton 12?
Speak for yourself bro… most music I record is with real instruments and are multi mic’d! So linear phase EQ is of utmost importance… That’s literally the only way to keep music fresh and alive…
Not sure if you will see this, but sitting at my dingy night shift job and just blasted through this EQ series! You have such an engaging, friendly, passionate way of speaking and teaching, it's so commendable, had a blast watching it all and learnt a lot along the way! Hope all is good with you man, big ups
Thanks a lot! I was considering buying an alpha juno just because of this sound... But then I found this! Awesome, man! In the 90's besides the Gabber stuff there were a lot of jungle/breakcore records where you would hear on nearly every track a hoover combined with an Amen break, haha.. Greetings from Germany..
Quality vids Owen, your video editing skills are on point too mate, hope your doing well, had the pleasure of having a curry with you and vibes and a few other peeps in the balti cottage in sunny Dagenham, I didn’t know much about you then barring you were making some hot tracks with vibes, after seeing your tutorial vids I’m convinced you are a Jedi Mensa! Keep up the good work mate, that dread bass remake you did was awesome!
I really like the sound of oldskool rave and those breakbeats, and your tutorials are great, I've been trying to make Atmospheric Drum and Bass, Hardcore Breaks, Techno-Rave, and other such genres and styles lately, so hopefully in the future you'll be able to come up with some more videos on the subject to guide us in making music. Junglist massive and Hardcore will never die!!!
Sounds good but I've noticed that a speed (frequency) of pulsation heavy depends on the note being played which often is not good.Tried to get rid of this in retrologue but failed. Try C2 note and D2 one by one back and forth and you clearly hear the difference in pulsation.
Yes, I understand. In this case it was exactly the desired result. If you wanted to address that, you could link "Key Follow" to the detune amounts via the Matrix (although it would be a bit fiddly to adjust the modulation amount to get the desired effect).
Well Owen, Wow.!!! Absolutely Amazing. I am blown away with both your choice of piano classics and also your understanding of them and the skills used to portray the nuances in the art of the chord arrangements. Very good job which has left me looking forward to viewing more of your work. Thank you Brother 👏🙏👏
Hi Owen, I write this comment before I even listen/watch this video. This is because you have chosen one of my favourite records of the era, and definitely my favourite Prodigy Record. Great choice. I will further comment after watching/listening to your video 👍
Indeed, and I might be more concerned with those kinds of details if I was actually trying to faithfully recreate the original "What The..." preset. My aim was more to mimic the sampled/resampled "hoover" hits of later generations.
Yes Brother, a big THANK YOU for introducing me to the Dr. Alimantado, album. This is the first time that I have heard it. Sounds very much like U Roy. That could only be a huge compliment as you know U Roy, is a Legend. I got the sample - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-e1Gnv6O_8MY.htmlsi=LWp2DcgH5K1wrS33 Thank you 🙏
@@OwenTheGeek Hi again Owen, so sorry for the late reply but, I thank you very much for your comment and equally look forward to watching your videos. Respect 🇯🇲 😎👌
Hi, just a slight correction on the second vocal sample. You mistakingly said "Then walk when a gunman back me up round the corner". Actually the sample says "Then wha'ppen when a gunman back me up round the corner". "Wha'ppen", is Jamaican Patois for "What happens". In English - "Then what happens when a gunman backs me up around the corner". I correct you with strict good intentions Brother ❤
Yeah... as soon as I read this comment I knew you were right. Listened back to confirm. What you said makes a lot more sense in the context of the track it's sampled from. Thanks! 🔥
@@OwenTheGeek Thank you also for your most humble acceptance. I think that you took the correction the way that it was sent "from the heart ❤️", Brother. From your speedy, gracious response I am now going to sub and follow your channel. Great recreation of 'Dred Bass', I have to say 👏👏👏

But I rented cubase 12, well demo and it had me retrologue2.. seems good synth out of the box sounding. I also look for dune3, I won't avenger 2 and phalanx VPS. I sell these with reasonable price to get Dune3 probably @@OwenTheGeek
I'll give you the top 3 as that's easy: #1 Xfer Serum #2 Steinberg Padshop #3 Synapse DUNE Note these are in order of what I personally find valuable, given my tastes/preferences/skills/etc. AND if forced to remove one from the list, it would affect my other choices (as I'm using them as a team). Picking #4 and #5 is a lot more difficult. Definitely one of the Plogue synths in there, possibly Korg Triton as well.
