even if I don't specifically wanna remix Skrillex or "copy" his sounds, this gives a REALLY good guide for a plethora of little tricks that even as someone making music over a decade, I had no clue you could do especially with the vocal harmonizing and splitting it between the "voxy synthlike vocals" and the blend of the real voice was something I hadn't thought of. often I think more about adding effects to go further and further but bringing back in those elements that you can lose from making something "electronic" has such a harmonizing beauty to it. Thank you for this vid :)

Import a percussion sample into a sampler, add Haas effect, play a rhythm and experiment with the pitch automation over time. You could synthesize a similar sound, but work smarter not harder because no average listener is gonna care how you got there.

Oh prob also experiment with using vocoders or kilohearts disperser or just a plugin that makes a lot of band splits (even sth like a Multiband compressor without any compression/1:1 ratio)

L'usage commun du vocoder est d'attribuer à une ligne de chant ou à une phrase parlée une ou des hauteurs, ignorant donc celle(s) qu'elles avaient auparavant. En appliquant toutefois du vocoder à une ligne mélodique, et en prenant soin que la suite d'accord qu'on lui associe soit dans la même tonalité que celle-ci, il est possible de situer le dry/wet aux alentours de 60%, voire d'écrire des automations sur ce paramètre. Ce faisant, on harmonise donc la mélodie initiale par l'effet audio, d'une manière intéressante puisque cette harmonie ne se manifeste qu'en même temps que la mélodie, et possède un timbre particulier et un volume que l'on peut tout deux moduler. Enfin, cette technique appelle à être couplée à l'utilisation d'un synthétiseur MPE qui en dévoilerait le plein potentiel.

Rather than automate the reverb dry/wet to bring the tail in could you not save time and create a side chain on the reverb with the bass as the side chain input? Should, in my mind, sound very similar. Great tutorial btw!

@SynthHacker have you noticed that sometimes with 'time based' plugins like LFO Tool and Kickstart you'll get some delay on the envelope?? ie: So the 'ducking' is actually slightly off time, etc. I've noticed this mainly when it follows plugins with latency... but wondering if you've seen the same.
