Source Direct - Mastering Drumfunk (Pt.5)
Рет қаралды 3,276
Күн бұрынWhilst the majority of this tutorial series has been about recreating Amen rollers similar to Secret Liaisons. I thought whilst we are studying Source Direct, it would be foolish to glance over all their other work which includes some incredible Drumfunk.
Two of my favorites are Two Masks & Snake Style.
I've really just thrown together a whole love of useful tricks & techniques to show you. This is all in Renoise but obviously incorporate these into your own workflows and DAWs where you please!
Once again, big love to all my Patreon subscribers and anyone who subs and shares my content on here! It really inspires me to figure out how to grow this channel and turn it into something amazing!

Enjoyed this as always! Would be cool to see a similar video using Logic/external VSTs. Although watching this made me understand why Renoise is so good for choppage/edits!
@groovining Жыл бұрын
Yea that a great idea. I've been leaning towards Renoise for this type of work a lot but all these techniques can be translated. I still love Logic and thinks its a fantastic DAW so will definitly be making more Logic related content in the future. Thanks mate :)✌️🥷

Plastic Jam sometimes feels like cheating, so many variations built into the break, some of the best rolls in a break, and SUCH a good sound!! Awesome video! Loved the tip about Sxx to get to the verbed snare tail and layering that.
@groovining Жыл бұрын
Yea its such a unique break. All those varitaitons make it so fun to program. Glad you enjoed the vid Ninjilla, its a sneaky trick that one but sometimes works better than reversing the hits to fill that space. I think its all about not cutting abruptly to digital silence. Just sounds so wrong in a modern DAW but you can get away with this stuff a bit more with hardware due to all the noise/hiss.

I really like gating on the master too. or controlling the gate threshold with the signal follower controlled by a muted kick. awesome vids.
@groovining Жыл бұрын
Thanks mate. Yea thats cool also. Gating with the Cxx command on the master gives great FXs. Never tried using an actualy gate for this kind of thing but thats intresting also. Definitly something I need to try out. Thanks for the tip! :)🥷

@groovining Жыл бұрын
Thanks Anton. Yea i'm going to work on that this week a bit hopefully! It was actually such a cool concept that project. I've basically replicated the hardware workflow of an Akai/Emu sampler + Analog Mixing desk in the DAW. Created 5/6 instruments in Renoise for Drums, FXs, Percs, Inst each with a 50-60 samples and chops spread up the keyboard. The replicated the analog mixer with SIE-Q and decapitior on each track. Few send effects and thats it. Its super fun to have everything you need ready to go and then you just have to worry about sequencing it all! ":)✌️🥷

another massive vid!! Your loops here sound dope btw. I've been trying to figure out how they did those gating tricks back in the day. Through midi Volume commands? An actual hardware gate?

@groovining Жыл бұрын
@@ghal3on Thanks Ghal3on! Yea it could definitely be an actual hardware gate resampled into a hardware sampler. Of course, just shortening midi note length was probably the most common. That snare roll trick will sound dope through one of your old Akai's! ✌🥷

sorry for asking here but since you know a lot about Renoise , is there a way to use the Mac keyboard numpad to enter values in the editor instead of changing instruments?
@groovining Жыл бұрын
Hey, sadly not to my understanding but someone may have made a tool that does this. I've mapped my numpad so that it does all kinds of other shortcuts as changing instruments is not that useful. I use the Numpad numbers for various shortcuts and the numbers above the letters for editing in the pattern editor. It makes sense this way as the numbers are close to the letters so everything is in one place.
