Navie is definitely the best production tutor on YT. Why? Because he actually teaches and teaches well. Hes knowledgeable. Hes not like most of these other tutorial guys who don't really teach anything or understand what they are saying themselves and are really flexing their producer muscles while hiding behind the word "tutorial". This was a good video and I learn alot. +1 for us. Thx alot Navie
@@keejay12 Haha for sure! That's why Navie, "FL Studio Tips", and "LifeStyleDidIt" are my go to now. Older Simon Servida helped a ton too and some of his newer vids still drop knowledge. He is on his placement grind though so I get the newer vids not being as tutorial based. The rest that I used to watch for "tutorials" I now realize is them just busting out a beat in 10 minutes saying it's for Lil Baby or something. Lol. Like you said, just flexing their producer muscles while we learn nothing. 😅
@Moor Darkness yeah its BS. You sitting through 20 minutes hoping a gem is dropped and all they do is show off how fast they can make a Young Thug type beat. Theres no explanations, no how they got from point A to point B, no explaining on why certain decisions were made in the creative process, NOTHING. Thats not a tutorial.
@@keejay12 Haha for sure! I just watch those now if I want some inspiration. But even then, learning actual stuff like what Navie gives, gives me a ton of inspiration already. Makes me excited to try new things out and learn and progress.
you are hands down the best tutorial dude in youtube. so helpful for people that have been making beats for a while but looking to take to the next level
@@NavieD yeah man you taught me how to make the most of my sampled drum breaks. before felt so flat but when i put them in mono with decapitator and a transient shaper... amazing
thank you a ton navie, lately ive been feeling super unmotivated and just kinda stuck in everything, but seeing how you always push forward and teach super well has helped me to get back into the groove of things. im far from good at beat making , but ive come a long way from where ive started, and much of that i own to u!!! luv u soooo much
I swear you write the 9:40 analogy bits first and reverse engineer how to make a tutorial video using them. You wake up in the middle of the night with a crazy ass analogy and quickly scribble it down in your handy analogy pad. Love it. Keep em coming.
I cant tell you how much I appreciate your knowledge at such a crucial time in my production career. You sir are doing gods work. Very transparent, and appreciate your knowledge on the mixing side.
hey bro when i first clicked on your videos i was like 3 years into producing and i felt like ok man this is some dope content but it is way too advanced for my skill lvl right now. now 2 years i feel like i am on the right lvl to really improve from your videos just wanna say thank you very much for your cool content it really helps me alot and i really learn how to see things in different angles and from another side that i am used to!! keep it up :)
I love the fact that you ALWAYS incorporate an aspect of funny into all of your videos, you are my absolute favorite YT music teacher bro. That explanation for the hair in a can had me DYYYINGGG! LMAOOOOO
I learned the filter trick really early on from the EDM guys. They've got really exceptional sound-design tips over in that realm of production. You're a fantastic teacher, keep up the great work. ✊🏼
Inspirational and super helpful, per usual! I wonder, could I substitute Decimort for, say... Fruity Squeeze? lol Also, chances on a "cookup" type video? I'm interested in the Legend's workflow! Thanks, and cheers!
Thanks Fox! I have never used Fruity Squeeze unfortunately, so I am not sure! Last time I did a "cook up" video, it failed. Maybe I will try again though
Thank you for showing us your past mistakes and sharing your experience with us! It means a lot! I've been subbed since like 5k and I'm really happy to see you winning :) You're one of the best producer-youtubers out there!
I came across your video randomly and this made me want to subscribe. I fully agreed with all of your points plus I learned a few new things to help me on my own production. Thank you!!! #Subscribed
Ol FL lol, haven't used it in a few months since I got that mpc live but FL made me a monster but this damn mpc is some whole other shhh. Great vid as usual naive D.
So what I learned from this video is to use Hair in a can to fix my mix problems, damn why didn't I think about it! on a serious note tho I really love your videos they're super helpful and enjoyable thanks a lot!
I never understood the difference between EQ and filtering. Thanks for sharing this information with the music producer community, Navie. I'm going to start using this tip more
There is no difference, other than the fact that an eq gives you far more control. You don't need a filter to add resonance to a High or low pass filter. It can be done in an eq in two seconds. I'm kinda shocked that navie put this info out there tbh
Late to the party, but appreciate this one! The first tip will help a ton while I'm trying my hand at EDM. Just so much going on and such dense sounds that it can be overwhelming. I also never fully knew what the resonance knob did. Super helpful to now envision what it's doing thinking in terms of seeing it on an EQ. And of course distortion. Can't forget that one! Appreciate it my friend! Edit: P.S. The analogy killed it as always. 🤣 They always cracked me up but get the point across so well. Idk how you think of them, but never stop. Hahaha!
Love your videos, your critical and analysing aproach and using your brain! Also well done those fixes. im just curious, in what country do you live? :)
Yo got all the tips on structure for drums and bass but u should work your melodies and removing the high end out of the sounds you make chords out of it seems likes it screams at you when u hear it
Hey... a lot of these tips are great! However, I predominately use Reason 12 to make beats. Some of your concepts are difficult to translate. Could you do a video on how to transfer these concepts to Reason, Ableton and whatnot? Even if you’re running them as plugins?
I understand the point of the second tip, but I feel like Sato's original beat would be great in the context of a Cloud Rap song or something hazy and dreamy like that.
I really dig the content man! You are very knowledgeable when it comes to beat making. Can the techniques used in better beat maker be applied to the Mpc One or is it specifically tailored for FL studio?
@@NavieD wonderful!!! I’m back in the states! It’s been a amazing summer despite the current events in the world! I’m actually starting a new job next week so excited about that and just moved out on my own for the 1st time in life so everything is going well!!!
@@dubkonnection3420 Nah bro Im not talking about that, im referring to modullation eg like that tremolo effect on a piano but doing that on a sample or chop.
