Producer Masterclass - Spektre - Part 1 of 2 

haha right or better not talking

Reason is a great starting point. I used it for a long time and I even worked with some top artists who continue to use Reason to release professional tracks. Since reason incorporated VST support it's a totally viable DAW. I haven't used it in a long time but my only gripe would be the mix engine, as it used to not hold up compared to other DAW's. Maybe that's been improved but I'm not sure. If you do decide to take the plunge into Live, the transition should be largely painless. Live is definitely far more advanced but the essentials are mostly the same as Reason. I remember building long intricate racks in Reason and I missed that when I started using Live, but now Live also has that capability. Definitely give Live a shot. :D I use Studio One mostly these days. Still have Live installed but I like the workflow of Studio One, however, there are still some things in Live that are much more conducive to writing EDM.

Ableton is nice for sure but at the start you won't be satisfied or maybe you will. anyway my point is that you need to take advantage of the effect racks and build crazy things but also simplistic tools to make your workflow easier and faster. but can say if you are on it u can build a freaking track in no time. Resampling function is gold!

The link to watch part 2 can be found in the magazine (both print and digital editions), no matter where you are in the world :)

No man! Left guy making drum sounds and right guy everything other. I think.

Paul Maddox (left) is a well-established mix engineer, Rich Wakley (right) knows his way round a studio just fine - both lads are talented producers and DJs in their own rights. Just a good crossover of ideas and strengths to play to.

Link is in the description.

Dynaudio LYD8 and BM6A.

In Simpler, just turn up the parameter labelled "VEL" below the filter, then play with the main cutoff to find the sweet spot (Y)

Paul Maddox thanks Paul

Its in every Drum Synth, you just have to create it!

@@BastianHeilmusic many thanks

I bet they build it themselves

The sample packs of transients exist for sale in various places. Buy one, and load them into a sampler across your keys. Voila. You can do this with all of your drum instruments which makes life easier when auditioning samples.

@NextPlanetGaming can you give an example? can't find any

The song in the beginning is the song of the masterclass always xD i don't know who is the stupid..

i was asking if its possible to play the song they break down in that episode at beginning, so people know what this exact class is about...you get it ?

The song is playing for the first 10 seconds of the video, that is what they are breaking down. You get it?

wow 10 seconds...

It really isn't that hard to search Spektre 'Middle Of Everywhere' if it isn't enough for you.

what ?
