I also do this "version thing." I find that a naming convention helps me a little too remember the evolution a bit, but the best part is that I never feel bad about making a change because I save it with a predetermined naming convention so I never lose anything and free myself to move on. "But what if this is a great idea.... I don't want to lose it." So, I have a disc with lots of intermediate versions. No big deal. Storage is cheap. Thanks!
Love that TAL chorus!! It rules!sounds great with hardware 😉 I nearly throw it on everything😂😂😂 their filter gate is pretty awesome too, thanks for the heads up👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Great track reminds of Futurshock back in 2001. Btw can you explain the clipper? is it to stop distortion? Also is there a golden number of layers for e.g Bass could have Sub, regular and some bit. Kick - three layers sub mid and click?.....I guess how do i get a phatter sound ? tx! I'll check out some more of your tutorials
@@joecc6 clippers are basically like a very hard limiter and are generally used to subtly chop off transients. Layering, I always try to do as much as I can with one layer. It's easier and more effective to find a sound that works than to do complicated production to try and make the wrong sound fit. If I am layering it's usually pretty subtle and with as few layers as possible.
I used to save everything I made but ended up with loads of unfinished work. Now if I feel like it's going nowhere or in a good direction, I just save the hook or the part I like then move on. I have a folder of ideas that I can go through to spark ideas. I now finish more of what I make and don't waste time going in the wrong direction.
You're an amazing tutor, your videos are super informative, straight to the point. What I like about your videos, is that you actually share your thought process, not just show us the final product as it is. Thank you so much and keep up the great work. Small request: can you do a similar video for funk music? (example: Chromeo, Kazzey)
Lesson is that allways first ideas and first waves of inspiration are what's best.. You can go so farm from the original idea, but it's always that idea that got you back to work on the track.
Hey Dilby, thanks for sharing all your production process. Is amazing and so clean, Love it!. Have you some video of how you used the return fxs? Because I really love how it sound on vocals and synths. Cheers from Argentina
exactly, this is what I've learned recently, follow the idea, finish arrangement as soon as possible, ideally the same session, as you have it in your head. next day you are already full of new ideas:)

@@dilbydj why u label it as underground then when its subjective? if u listend to 500 000 tracks and i listend to 10 000 tracks, what does underground even mean? When u listend to 500000 tracks underground will shift to more detailed unique inspring tracks in my opinion. Ofc if u like a certain type u can listen to it forever(evergreen). For me underground is using elemnents in an non conventional way but still in a musical way with unexpected turn arounds, not the same edm build up type of sht. But yeah you are right, music is fully subjective in how the individual experience it. Then I dont understand the wording "Underground". Underground is also a wording for marketing
@@mariusle3385 You're obviously very passionate about your opinions of music and I can respect that. But I think stripping away personal opinions and looking at the words in broader sense, as tools to communicate, is more useful to understand my reasoning for the choice of tittle. I am trying to explain that it is house music, but not something on the more commercial end of the spectrum that Spinnin or other such "house" labels might release... Simple, that's it. That's my reasoning. And based on the overwhelmingly positive response to the video, I think that I was able to communicate the subject to the audience in an appropriate manner. Due to your preconceptions of the word "underground", the contents of the video may not have met your expectations based on the title. This doesn't at all mean you are wrong, because we are speaking about a subjective topic, and no doubt there are people who whole-heartedly agree with your opinion. But in this case, it seems you are generally an outlier based on the response of other viewers. If you really feel that strongly that the video doesn't meet your expectations, please by all means feel free not to watch.
