This kind of tutorial is cool because it teach you a technique without giving you a sound, it show you how to experiment yourself and find your own sound. And it's Noisia so it's more cool :)

Noisia are legends, producers from every genre should watch their tutorials

His attention to detail is what sets him apart. He does some amazing digital art too, smart man.

In the first part of this series Martijn said he doesnt actually know how to control the loop length, now Nik said he doesnt know how to set the phase off the axis, and Thijs didnt know what he was doing at all. lol

4:37 Literally took Nik 3 seconds to get it sounding right with eq.... just shows how sharp and trained his ear is

putting a windows task-manager shortcut in the taskbar actually blew my mind #life=changed

"Look at this cool thing I can do...it's sounds kinda shit...but you get the point I guess"

Nik Roos, please do a Masterclass.

It's unbelievable what these guys can do to sounds. Mind bending, literally.

Your metering is a dream!

a quick mathematical note for convolutions. it's the same as frequency domain multiplication. so a kick convoluted with a share will be some mid rangy mess. If frequencies are abcent in one sample, they will be abcent in the end result. low frequency sounds will effectively function as a low pass filter.

Yes, more Noisia please!

Very cool trick he did with FM8. That synth is so underrated. I've been playing with it since FM7 and I was teaching myself a lot of that synth. This was before I even knew what FM synthesis was. But this tutorial was awesome. He really show you how you can edit samples and sounds to get more or something else out of them. I wish there'd be more

Pasarán años hasta que haya alguien como estos tipos,son los goat del drum amd bass ❤❤❤

more. please.

I love watching people, who know what they're doing.

Blew my mind when Nik made a cymbal sound from a white noise patch in Sylenth1. Gonna have to play around with that idea

Nik always seemed like he had the strongest grasp on what he's doing.

Reason's RV7000mk2 is an excellent convolution unit

Suddenly Melda sold a shit ton of convoluters

Oh yes! Noisia studio video time!

Bit late to the party but I throughly enjoyed this..time to start upping my convolution game!

I thought i should learn cubase because of Noisia and Amon Tobin but if Nik is happy enough with Bitwig now I feel that sweet confirmation bias since I ended up with Bitwig. Can’t wait for more Sleepnet, RIP Noisia. ❤️

This dude is brilliant

Nik. The Technical mastermind behind Noisia

Wow this is a great vid! you've inspired me with new ideas for my own music. regards from Flevoland haha

Not hard to understand why Noisia loves Izotope Trash 2 so much. It does alot of his stuff inside the plugin....EQ, Multiband distortion, EQ again, compress, Convolve (Crazy Convolutions), delay.

These guys have the coolest group studio bar none.

Clearly these videos aren't meant to teach you everything. With that being said it's awesome that noisia does these videos. I don't think their intention is for the viewer to copy exactly what they are doing, but rather unique approaches to sound design..

The software developers are the actual geniuses.

This sounds like the kind of technique that produced those percussive bass hits in "Stamp Out."

8 girls don't want to convolute with Nik.

I do a similar thing with the Vocoder in Ableton, you can do it with any 2 sounds but for example I take a pluck and then add a new track with the same MIDI notes and a piano VST, then I filter the pluck through the Vocoder, mess with the settings and then control with dry/wet.. It's a simple way to basically filter one sound through another, a vocoder is a fun tool and if you've just tried it with vocals you're missing out! Also really useful for wobble bass sounds.

I created a short (even a one cycle) sinewave at 50 Hz at very low level as convolution source. It gave a deep live concert like bass enhancement. :)

people in the comments are so impressionable

Proper tips. He's up there

Damn, I knew about this technique, but I got some interesting ideas to experiment.

Nice to see that they still use Fm8 allot!

Brilliant

Abletons corpus effect is one of my favorites for this reason

Insane with a membrane

Fun fact Noisias members all used to paint graffiti in their youth meaning that, that 'asbest' sign has probably had more studios to live in than a person currently 18 years old

*PLS, what is the name of the program that analyzes the real-time that is at the bottom right?*

ASBEST 🤟🤟

I just bought mconvolution MB. Great software, I thought m4l's convolution reverb was good enough but it really doesn't compare

Anybody know what keyboard he's using? The typing one not the Moog.

What DAW are you using here.? I'm using REAPER and KOMPLETE 12. I think I'm gonna download Ableton's 30 day demo and see if it would help me get my projects to the end zone sounding better and hopefully a bit faster. I have Vahalla-plate & Vahalla-room also. Great dsp's.. Who makes that convoluter FX? And how do you guys get those super strong, mega low, dancefloor devastating bass sounds? I love your sonic tsunami's and how it sounds like the Alien walkers in War of the Worlds where they start blasting people out or their shoes and socks.. and it starts raining meat confetti everywhere... that's how I visualize Noisia's 25hz - 35hz sonic pulses that you guys dress up in just the right FX !! Thx brother. ....very appreciated.

useful!

How can he see the small dropdown menus and words on that screen so far back?

Hey what has name that vst Convolution?

Ok, so why that works is when you have a sine wave (sinus)... you go from 0, 90, 180, 270 to 360. That is from 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5 to 2... so offsetting by one shifts the sinus left or right! You can also invert a cosine to get the same result with mathematics ;)

I've only watched a few videos of them but now I know that whenever I hear reverb in a Noisia track this guy is prob responsible.

"It makes it sound as if the sound you're putting through it is coming out of some sort of membrane that's limiting the frequencies it can produce." Yes, Nik. That's called a "filter".

is that a little sub on his desk?

First track?? I love it please give me the title :)

"Drum Pielemoos Probeersel", which Dutch watching this saw that too? :P

Can anyone recommend decent convolution plugins?

if you convolute two sounds, you actually multiply the 2 sounds respective spectrums.

What's the plugin on the bottom right monitor?

I'm feeling stupid now

Zbs (збсь)

збс(zbs)(nice)(lekker)

-So... do you have a headphones,no?

remember.. membrane sound..

In the thumbnail he looks a bit like Jason Statham

What's with the buzzing? For a magazine/site whose sole purpose existing is about music and sound and making them sound nice and clean, *CLEAN UP THE AUDIO* I mean, wtf.

It seems like the room is not sound treated at all... Or am I wrong?

ik ruik nederlands

Jason Statham is you??

Omg looks like nuclear war...not understand. UFO

Lots of mouse clicking..................

please get rid of mouse clicks in these tutorial-style videos. love the content but damn that is driving me bonkers!

Less of a tutorial, more of a marketing exercise

This is a joke right ?

The Nigel Tufnel of the EDM generation. All the gear no idea. This is painful to watch. 13 minutes for one hi hat - which he even says sounds crap. Just use a sample and make some music quick.

Why don't you eliminate all that time wasted navigating & steering your mouse like a race car thru endless sub menus / learning curve Just get a Moog Model D and get your hands on immediately all your demonstrating is your familiarization with software and how good it looks on a LCD 46" TV screen
