How To Make Weekend TUTORiAL

SYNTHiC4TE | Jan 05 2019 | 2.48 GB

This week we welcome back downtempo and ambient multi-instrumentalist, for an all-new course in Ableton 10 on how to make his track Weekend. In this three hour course, we learn how to build this ethereal yet powerful and epic track from scratch. Starting with the analog lead chords with it’s flowing arpeggio and automated sidechain using Ableton’s utility plugin, we move on to building the sub and kick before layering further melodic textures using WNTER’s signature time-stretching and resampling techniques. Just by using a handful of simple samples, we create epic pad and string sections drenched in reverb and finish off with arranging all the elements we’ve created before mixing down the song and carrying out a basic master so it’s ready to be released.

Grind v1.1.0 WiN MAC

From subtle tube-style saturation to full-on mangled wavetable distortion, Grind is a Swiss Army Knife of sound design.  Grind consists of three main blocks: wavetable lookup, in to algorithmic saturation/distortion/, and finally to a multi-mode filter. The wavetable module uses the amplitude of the incoming signal to replace the sample with one from 15 different linearly-interpolated wavetables, chosen for their mangling potential. Window size and phase controls provide further tone-shaping possibilities.  The next stop is the algorithm module, with eleven different distortion and saturation algorithms, from simple soft-knee saturation on up to full on sine warping.

This week we welcome back ambient and cinematic maestro Owsey for an all-new set of tech tips in FL Studio. These ten tips are a unique insight into how Owsey manages to create such epic, ethereal and transcendental sounds using unlikely sources such as a simple pluck on a violin, or foley recordings taken from everyday objects. Throughout this course, we check out how to use different and often ignored parameters on our effects plugins along with interweaving automation to add a ton of texture and character to bring our sounds to life.
