ok this is really amazing. I have watched ALOT of videos on how to make kicks on serum and at first I was like what? Ive never seen anyone design an LFO on the coursepit like that. I immediately went into my daw and tried it and it finally has the transient click I have been dying to have. THANK YOU!
My tailer hits were lacking kick/clip. It was essentially a boom sound with a really weak kick. To compensate I would always use a kick from a purchased sound pack and layer it with my Serum or Vital booms. After watching this video I no longer neeed to rely on kick samples. I can just create my own and layer it with my boom. Great stuff.
This video is perfection. Thank you bro. One of the reasons I want to make my own rather than continue using pre-made is that it may preserve the transients and offer a cleaner, higher quality sound.
Having to deal with the annoyances of the RU-vid content ID, I've looked EVERYWHERE for a drum synth and couldn't find anything that sounded good, then I found this video. This was a fascinating tutorial on not just making kicks, but even learning a little sound design, straight and to the point too! Awesome video dude, you deserve more subscribers.
I just spent like 2-3 hours trying to figure out why my kick had a load of sustain and echo, and it's because I had it routed through a reverb... Ooof This was a really awesome and concise tutorial I love how simple it was, and it's really easy to see how each of your steps changes the sound for future sound tweaking thanks!
second video of hundreds that tells the concept of using LFOs to shaping the waveform of our sound the way we want, that's eye opening for me. This kick sounds really good
just as an added tip i think turning the rand. knob all the way down on both waveforms will give your kick a more consistent transient. :) this was an incredible tutorial btw, thank you
I love it. Try moving the main light a little to the side that way it creates depth on the left side of your face. It creates a shadow that adds a little touch to the composition. Then if you wanna try this with one more small pocket light, try having it slighty on your face to just add a little light to that dark area on the left side. Please, do not think i am judging you. I came here to learn how to make a badass kick 🤘
You are a great teacher when it comes to this. Simple and easy to learn, with the freedom to experiment with things you say we should play around with. Really great tutorial. Stop sleeping on wild row people
The only thing is maybe you want to make L3 longer to have a longer tail. And the rand in both LFO to cero. To avoid ramdom phase everytime causing phase issues. But great tutorial .. amazing chanel 🔥
So how do you know what key the kick is in when you start synthesising it? Or you should not care about what key it is in and just design it first and once you finish designing it then find the key it’s in and then pitch it to whatever you want it to be?
You are legit really really really good. I was expecting something half assed. Well done man. (coming from someone whos been playing with sound design for over a decade)
Very helpful, thank you so much! Another thing we should do is turn the "rand" knob all the way down so the kick always plays in the same phase and we don't get different kicks everytime. Cheers!!
@@wildcrowmusic It Tried And It Was Not Exactly The Same Hahaha But I Had Fun And I'll Try Again Tonight. It's Just Awesome Playing Around With Serum. 🔥🤘🥳
Dammmm.......... You are soooo good at LFO shape designing. I really suck at that part. By the way this is the best video for making House kick from scratch.
Anybody else also having trouble sharping the LFO2? I try to remove the point that is on the right of the screen but it is "attached" to the point on the left of the screen. Whenever I touch one of them the other one moves as well... And I can't delete the point at the right
I downloaded gtune. No matter where I set the semitones, it says F#😕 How do I get it to C? I’ve moved the semitone numerous numbers, and the sound and name of key stays the same. F#. 😕 I need to add that this video is badass! Great tutorial. Only issue is I don’t know how to get it to C. Stays in F#. Thanks for any help🙂
idk if youve improved since this video but its helpful for us to see serum more than cutting to your face full screen constantly. look at it from our perspective not yours
great explanations especially the advice lfo points have a lot of influence defining character. Where do i control the release time (longer tail sound), if i do this with the lfo i get a more and more distorted sound. Thank you.
