Today we're diving into the creation of processed, synthesized drumloops for later use in compositions & production. We are making use of the LXR-02 by Erica Synths for basic synthesis and the RC-20 & Infiltrator 2 Plugins for further processing among others, but you should be able to apply these principles with any gear and any software.
Gear used:
Erica Synths LXR-02: thmn.to/thoprod/522842?offid=...
XLN Audio RC-20 Retro Color VST: thmn.to/thoprod/404581?offid=...

LXR-02... I love it! Bought it after spending one year on the Volca Drum. It can do very complex stuff

If you freeze the the first track, you can drag the frozen clips to a new track instead of clicking through every single one.

BIG on the intro and outro soundtrack 🙌 Lovely nineties-style pads I miss. Thanks for the killer library of pre-made loops tip Felix. Just the other day Sonic Charge dropped an AI script for enabling a smart way to browse through and customise endless patterns, and I was pondering doing this. I will try your method using Abe's built-in effects, but those are cool 3rd-party fx recommendations. Infiltrator reminds of a beefed-up version of dBlue 🤘

For a smaller budget give "MicroTonic" from Sonic Charge a try! Great Drumsynth VST

@AriMusik Жыл бұрын

Would say THE BEST drum synth in the vst world. I really don't know any other synth with that possibilities in drum synthesis. I am talking about synths only - no vst with any audio content.

@@AriMusik So true. My friend and Zurich legend Boris Blank from Yello uses this thing almost on every track since release.

@ThizOne Жыл бұрын

I agree, it’s a great drum synth. I actually bought a LXR 1 because of the similarities. But for another budget tip if you want a hardware version, then MicroTonic is great the the PO Tonic from Teenage Engineering.

Question 🙋‍♂️ Felix - if you have a drum rack in ableton or a drum group couldn’t you just use VST plug-ins in the daw without needing to creat loops? What’s the benefit of having drum loops in making a track that’s going to be in ableton anyway? This makes sense to me if I was going to chuck it onto my Octatrack but not sure what else.

@felixfleer4507 Жыл бұрын

It is a deliberate creative choice. I like to work with breakbeat samples a lot, in part due to some of their build in limitations like overlapping drum sounds and their complex sonic nature. By creating synthesized and processed drumloops I create something that of course sounds very different from a breakbeat, but allows for a similar workflow leading me to new ideas that I wouldn't have had I synthesized each drum sound individually while building a track. Anyways thats just one way to work. Very often I still create each sound individually, but it helps to have some of these loops on hand.

What's the point of a real human drummer with all the kit if you can just use an MPC? Because it's not the same.
