Sunday sound design class is in session:
oldskool jungle type timestretch.
First method is very interesting and more Bitwig-specific and makes use of Bitwig Operator parameters, but the second one is more applicable to most samplers.
“Black Label” (Metalheadz) DAW walkthrough [VIDEO]
Let me tell and show you a bit about how to make that Metalheadz sound.
I’m requested song walkthrough videos all the time, but honestly they do take quite a bit of time, but I’ve got something special for you today.
A 70-minute DAW walkthrough video.
This is 100% Patreon exclusive and NOT available anywhere else.
If you haven’t joined my mixing-and-production-focused Patreon yet, now’d be a good time (got a nice community of 120 members and growing).
I’m covering everything relating to the song: breaks, bass, processing, what in my opinion makes for a Metalheadz song, importance of different song sections, contrast…everything that makes for a song in general and what to take into account…a bit of music philosophy, too, which isn’t covered much.
Song walkthroughs have been heavily requested – I hope you guys like this one!
Set up a mastering project in your DAW + considerations + referencing [33 mins video]
I’ve been requested a lot to do a video about how to set up a mastering project in your DAW.
Find it on my Patreon.
I show how to set up a project with reference songs, talk about various considerations, and also go through some of the tools I use the most.
Reference songs for producing/mixing/mastering
As a mixing and mastering engineer, I’m often asked about good reference songs, so I did a FREE post on my Patreon listing some refs I use often with some most popular genres (DNB, house, hip hop, trap, techno):

Later this month I’ll be doing two EXCLUSIVE videos:
1) how to reference efficiently and
2) how to set up your own mastering project in your DAW.
