I learned from fucking around and doing covers from old 90s/80s electronic music. Doing covers definitely taught me about music theory and song structures. Those were more simple times so re-synthesizing those classic patches made it a lot easier to dive in and understand about all the functions on the synthesizer and how certain routes can change the sound.

that's a very good way of learning thing! I think many people leaning music through "mimicking" others, or covers. Because when we do covers, we have to have a deeper understanding of how the song is constructed, which teaches us a lot of cool stuff that's what we like. I feel honored to be in one of the people that can appreciate the happiness of learning through this way😉

Seamless I think it's pretty amazing how instead of just producing yourself you actually broadcast your skills out with tutorials so that other beginning and experienced producers alike can benefit and learn from watching your videos. I love what you do, keep being inspiring, man!

Yeah, learning through hands on experience and experimentation takes longer but is much more thourough and you start to understand the reasons behind things more. Definitely agree with that.

I would say don't go to college to learn any of this stuff. I went to college for this kind of thing and I learned more in my years out of it than I did in. I actually failed the ''Make a 30 second song using midi and audio'' module in my college course that I was doing. I would just say to people to stick at it. It all comes with TIME. Just be patient, you're not going to be a pro at anything in your first year or even more, or you might not get there at all.

What's your opinion on people having "signature" sounds, like the people that have a sound that they have made, and use it in pretty much every track. I personally don't mind it, I think it's cool sometimes, but I'm curious to what your opinion on the subject is.
@TheBzg07
@TheBzg07 9 лет назад
Thanks for the information dude, seriously since i started watching your tutorials my sound design has gotten much better, and im getting closer to the sounds i wanna make! I also found college for music futile, its too much money for the dearth of knowledge id personally gain. Ive studied guitar and theory for way too long to go back to school to get my hand held through theory 101, and i dont give a fuck about clusters or 12 tone music or anything like that.

Hi Seamless! I've been watching your videos over last month, and studing the program. I learned a lot of things with your tutorials, and I came here to say thank you. I started a month ago, and now I created a channel to post my musics. I'll be honored if you give me your opinion and advices.

When you're making orchestral music and you're using different plugins, how do you learn how to use them? I watched "The making of Codename:hurricane" and I was just wondering where you learned how to use The Eastwest plugin, I'd really love to know how to work with it.

Hey mate - Speaking about the wealth of knowledge that's just overflowing from your channel (and we all appreciate that such a resource is available to us freely), do you have a recommended watching order for beginners? I've plugged my way through the FL Basics and Production Basics (And then the new FL12 series), but the How To Bass and the redesign (75k Tutorial xx etc) tutorials seem a little steep for me at the moment. Is there a certain section of your How To bass Series that goes a little deeper into the use of Sytrus/Harmor/Vocodex than the production basics, but doesn't just blast straight through to the finished product? Your method of teaching in all of your Basics videos is simply amazing and brings about a deeper understanding of how everything works, especially your Harmor series, but after that it's just kind of blasting me away.

People should notice that this is nearly always the answer to this question. I know there are many books, and online tutorials. They are very helpful, but experimenting on your own is possibly the best way to learn. It is art after all. Ask an exceptionally talented artist how he got so good. He won't give you a website or book to go to. There's not one concentrated source of knowledge. It's accumulated intentionally and accidentally over the course of years and years.
@DeadzoneMusic

The problem with most colleges and educational institution in regard to music, is they tend to only teach what is in the past. Very, very little current information is offered. This is probably due to the fact that most people that know the most about current music are young people who are being schooled instead of the ones teaching. Kinda shitty, but its a problem that is likely not going away anytime soon.

@bloodlord1989 9 лет назад
I learn a lot of what i know in different ways and places. Doing intensive research even silly things to learn how things work. Reading is very much your best friend because there is a lot of good material out there you won't find in every video. Being careful of strongly opinionated people and take it with a grain of salt and a saw wave. (not literally) . Look every where for ideas READ MANUALS lol (everyone hates manuals). Try to learn every side of music because one side will help the other grow. Follow the best youtube channels for you .Talk to people on youtube or where ever and help them out too ,but try not to get into silly dragged out debates. I've learned from people I helped as well because no one knows everything, but one can know a lot of stuffs.
@xtrullor
@xtrullor 9 лет назад
+blood lord (Chaotic Sonics) *MANUALS ARE NOT BORING.* There, I said it. Seriously people, go read them. They're ridiculously easy to read through and you may very well get inspired by the new information you just got. One of the best decisions I've ever made in music production is to read through a manual of a synthesizer, as it has given me tons of ideas how to go on about making sounds. If you look at something that you don't know what it is, GO READ THE GODDAMN MANUAL ABOUT IT. It literally takes minutes or less. Be a humble learner, if you want to become an awesome producer in no time.
@bloodlord1989
@bloodlord1989 9 лет назад
Xtrullor Yep lol. I Still read manuals especially for plug ins naming knobs weird Buzz words, like i'm suppost to know what a "sensitivity" knob is doing on a compressor when they could have said knee or threshold.

@SeamlessR
@SeamlessR 9 лет назад
+Bass Face I did read up a lot on the FL manual. But manuals are real hit and miss. they aren't always sensibly written, or even right. Or even cover the things you want to know about the thing you're reading about. Like "what does the "grit" knob do?" "it changes the level of "grit" on the synth" "gee, thanks manual"

The way I learned was through experimenting and buying presets. Buy the presets not just to use them.....but analyze them to figure out how they work. In the world of software synthesis with presets you literally have the equation and the answer right in front of you. If you analyze the presets you will learn. Just put some effort into it. Their is no easy way to learn this stuff. Takes time.

+SeamlessR Well he was much more focused on hip-hop than edm or other genres, but he also had a lot of stuff about music theory, melodies, and other more general things than your tutorials, which are more focused on specific things. This is not a criticism, by the way, just pointing out that his stuff was more for people with zero experience like myself, whereas your stuff seems to be for people who have more knowledge about creating music. Primarily what I loved was that he used Fruity Loops (now known as FL Studio) and there were absolutely no or very few tutorials out there using FL at that time (around 2006).
