Spectacular! I'm also in my journey in understanding j-pop music (mainly because of bocchi lol) and I also want to add more if you don't mind: Arrangement (FL Piano Roll) 1. Guitar MIDI requires more complex programming if you want it to sound realistically as possible. Legato, slides, plucks, and strumming are essential to making semi-realistic guitar tone. Mixing (FL Channel Bus) 2. The panning of each instrument. For me, I basically do 1 L guitar, 1 R guitar, 1 middle (for solo) guitar, bass in the middle (mono), and drums in stereo. 3. Doung equalizers on guitars (high pass) and bass (low pass) helps reduce the muddiness of the mix. 4. To make it sound like you're in a room, a good room reverb will do. In FL, you can use Reeverb 2 with the "Drum room" preset on use or you can use convolver for a variety of effects. 5. If you feel like it lacks power or attack, you can use Transient Processor and increase the attack. Mastering (Master Plugins, Auto master) 6. Once you finish exporting the track, it is time to master. The easiest way to master the track is by using an auto mastering tool. Look up bandlabs auto master, they offer unlimited free instant mastering for free. 7. If you want to manually master your tracks, make sure to export it in a lower volume in order to give you freedom to boost, reduce, and fix different parts of your song using an EQ sheet. That's everything I know. Tell me more or please revise my list freely if you think something is misleading. Thanks! I'll see you in your next vid hana. Keep up the good work. Always remember the quote: "To Bocchi is to Rock!"
If this is your first tutorial video, WOW! Really well explained and summarized, I've seen other 20-30 minutes tutorials and I learned a lot less after watching them. You deserve way more subs.
This is the best j-rock song made only with VST plugins, that I've seen. I hate Kontakt libraries, but that guitar sounds really good, maybe I should try it
Kontakt just had a really outdated UI imo, I absolutely love using samples though. Synths are cool, but if I need organic instruments, you bet I’m going to a kontakt library.
I think it would be helpful if you explained some simple music theory as to why you're making the note choices that you are making. You don't have to go in depth--people can Google that for information. But just saying "start with simple chords" really needs more explanation. At least say you're in the key of C major and that you're using the chords Csus2 and Cadd9. Because if someone just starts out in C major and uses major triads, it's not going to sound anything like this and might just cause frustration.
@@renuk8560 The software used here is called FL Studio by Image Line. It is a DAW (i.e. Digital Audio Workstation). Some other commonly used DAWs are: Cubase, Studio One, Ableton Live. The process of creating music like this is called Music Production.
bocchi is real and I think hana is one of the character from bocchi the rock!! btw thanks for tutorial!!! there are very less tutorial on RU-vid for j-pop / j-rock like this so I appreciate it and hoping for more!! ^-^
i find this interesting, but since you said you have zero music theory, how do you build that lead on top of the chords? i also don't have music theory at all and i would like to know. is it the holy knowledge of *scales* , and if so, how?
@@hana130p uwah!- your pc is the goat lmao, well we hope to see more of your great content! side note: i really love how funny and adorable the editing was lmao
Just got into some music production. I had zero knowledge about it. I don't even know what do you mean with that "simple chords". Any tips? I only know that simple chord was triad. So sad Nice editing btw, it was funny!
So I'll link some tutorials on what chords are and etc, and how to make them: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-uINxIvwK1eo.html So basically chords can either be triads, 7th chords, 9th chords, etc. Triads just means 3 notes, and 7th and 9th are just one and two notes added to the chord respectively. The reason that they're called 7th and 9th is because for standard chords, you can make them by spacing fingers out one key, with your thumb placed on note 1, your index placed on note 3, etc. A simple way to think about it is that certain chords have different types of strengths/emotion. I think a simple chord progression to be used is the IV- V - iii - vi chord progression. You may want to search up what it means, but it's a pretty popular chord progression in jpop. I'll link another video below that shows other chord progressions that are pretty good: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Fdx9fQv0qQU.html These are just basics and some random tutorials, so let me know if you need any more help!
I'm a guitarist, except I don't have all this fancy computer stuff. At least not yet, I was thinking this video would go into the theory but yea. How exactly do I get into this plug-in stuff? Looks it mainly has to do with recording, which is something I'd like to do eventually. Also, anyone have any answers for theory? I'm learning theory now, so I could probably just reverse engineer the Bocchi the Rock songs I know, but are there any pointers?
