FYI: In case your ears don't notice it, the entirety of this masterclass was recorded with a clipped output. So when Culprate shows them examples of A/Bing plugins, don't pay attention to the distortion, because every sound throughout the video is going to sound far more distorted than what everyone else was actually hearing at the time of that event. Btw, Culprate is a pro and would've fixed the issue immediately had he known about it. The masterclass is still worth watching tho because it's loaded with great tips and techniques so thank you dBs Music for sharing.

yea man, I stumbled upon this a couple years ago by taking my subbass and white and my drums and heavily distorting compressing limiting the hell out of them and got this insane bass texture and I was like whaaaaaaaat! and then to see culprate doing an extremely similar technique only solidifies what a cool way to create that sort of bass

I don't think you're using Msed at all set up like that. The idea is you put it on a channel in decode mode and bus to two aux channels. on one you put msed set to mid and the other set to sides then the outputs of those aux go to a third channel thats your output. That channel has msed set to re-encode. Now you have a channel with just mids and another with only panned information, your sides. Now you can do what you want like add distortion just to the mid or add crazy reverb just to the sides or whatever. There are loads of MS plugins that let you eq in ms or whatever but msed still gives you the most flexibility. It's a bit complicated but once you get your head around how it works its awesome. Mid side processing is a game changer.

Interessting that he says 3k is the spot for aggressive sounds because Virtual Riot has always said to turn down at 3k because its the frequency our ears hear as the loudest. I suppose that could explain why it makes sounds aggressive, but by the same token, boosting those frequencies mean you cant get your track as loud because those frequencies are most sensitive.

Cut them frequencies for general sounds, and use foley to cover that area of the spectrum. Vocoder is great too!

So when Culprate first lays down a track, he doesn't worry about the levels at all. When he bounces everything into a new project, then he starts worrying about the levels. Within this new project, he also repeatedly bounces each of the tracks in place to process them individually. Have I got this right?

Stephen Ward You're absolutely right and a sine wave can can be at any specified frequency in the spectrum and no matter where it is, saturation will still add extra harmonics..

It's not Foley. You used the correct term yourself "Found Sound" common mistake but Foley is specific to film sound. It is performed by foley actors with props in a studio in time with the on screen action. Almost all sound heard in a movie is added like this. They don't record much environmental sounds on location when shooting.Named after Jack Foley who pioneered the technique. Big name in Hollywood and the history of cinema. Using found sounds in music is not Foley. A great film to watch where you see them at work is Berbarian Sound Studio.
