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.

Legitimately one of the best production tutorials on youtube

HOW DID I NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS?! Sorry about caps, but I'm just so happy to have found this. :)

2:34 "John sorry, you might give it a bit more level?" and the sound is fucked for the rest of the video...

Love the sub bass and white noise technique

The one sound he couldnt place his finger on is a walrus. A very popular youtube video was a woman prompting a captive walrus to make specific noises. He may mention it later, as im 20 minutes in. but theres a wonderful video with excellent walrus sounds.

Now do koan sound tutorial please! :D oh my god i love this channel

"John, sorry, you might wanna give it a bit more level?" Thats my man.

Great info from one of my favorite producers ... also, really hilarious how many times things were called "not advisable" ... lol

21:44 Man, "Fester" is one of my lifetime favourite tracks.. amazing work.

Couldn't help but notice the "SKOPRATE" folder. Beside the amazing class you're a proper fuck for the tease! Beautiful work man big ups dB

This one tutorial gave me more great tips than the last thirty I watched combined =)

Damn so many useful tips/tricks!

This is wicked, gonna watch this when I'm stuck for inspiration. All about that crunchy sound design! Cheers for the upload 👍

Yin is your masterpiece. It's like.. I feel every single sound in the tune and it pumps through my body and unites me with the universe. Words can barely describe it.

damn so many gold nuggets! thank you Culprate!

I've learned things I didn't even know where possible in ableton

It's nice to see someone else going through effects on their tracks and wonder what on earth theyre actually doing hahaha

oh man thats a hell of a treat !!!

Culprate's such a boss.

Culprate Bashes ... completely ;) propz to both the artist and the school! And thank you for the free vid!

need to rewatch it

Transient shaping with Saturn at 1:01.. Ace

That one where you said "This is what it sounds like at first" sounds like a fucking sick variation you could have fit in the track (If you didn't)

wow awesome!

LITERAL GOLD

5:45 I've been trying to figure out that fuzzy sub bass sound for so long...thank you jeebus

Damn I hope this song gets released it was previewed on sound cloud ages ago

1:01:30 wow nice

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.

Holy shit! Yes!

Nice percussion tip with those beats transients.

Great video

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.

Max 4 Live doppler is also very good!

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?

49:45 - sampled bass mod 1:00:42 - saturn drum trick

*My joint favourite artist* (with KOAN Sound,It's been years & I still can't decide who I prefer lol) *is showing me how to produce shortly after my laptop got stolen from my house by a little thief :'(* So annoying...But thanks Culprate :D

Is it always better to layer a top end over my basses? Im a few months into my neurofunk journey and im trying to learn everything i can.

23:13 the dude at the left looks litterally like cookie monsta

what are you calling the bounced bits in the beginning? tablars/tabulars? what is this?

Drum and bassically

man i wanna hear the entire thing

the clipping is fucking intense :D

классный саунд

15:00

which track is it?

are these all native to Live plugins?

but lot of gold is present so i will forgive you the shit recording:D big up Culprate and dBs

1:10:28 ''distorting the *low end* of a *sine wave* '' ???????????????????????????????????????????

What's the track he's explaining ?

Lots of bad practices to overlook in this project but it's cool to hear him talk about it.

^^ GRM tools are here : inagrm.com/en/store

Nobody: Culprate: Oh yeah this plugin is like... 30 years old?

like sort of bass like sort of sort of like

How would you go about doing the stuff he does at 25:00 on FL? I'm using Edison and the built in FL sampler and I'm completely clueless on how I can achieve the same effect.

funny how most people do things the same way with out learning from anyone after experimenting

20:46 sea lion from yt mate ;)

This guy asking what the midside plugins do... cmon.

amazing tutorial but more focus on how the track was arrangement would be good, rather than spending 10 mins tweaking a sound

does it bug anyone else that he doesnt play the whole set the entire fucking time...i just wish he would play it over and over rather than bits and pieces idk why its frustrating me so much l o l

there is something wrong with the sound

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.

Ah man, I cant watch the rest of this now hes clipped the output. Rubbish.

WTF... He's not even teaching... "uhhhhm - yeah" "ummm on top of that, yeah" Then scrolling up and down for no reason, clicking n' stuff... This is not how production should be taught! this guy can't teach! "uhhhh" then "yeah" everything he explained was so vague... didn't even get to 15 minutes.

Straight up thought this was going to be a video of Culprase creating a track lol lame misleading title D:
