I've always appreciated BTBAM's approach of using animal sounds at least once on a record to emphasize a part xD

Craziest sound I’ve used in a sound design application: I told someone to put a tape into a VCR, I recorded the sound of him putting in the VCR tape with voice memos on my iPhone, and in my daw, I slowed it down to a super huge low drone, and it sits under everything in a song I’m writing. It came out super nice and I was honestly surprised it turned out so well

That sounds awesome, made me think of Kazinski - Nightcall right away when you brought up the vhs, do you make that a theme with a lot of your songs using the lower pitch with a voice memo ?

One thing to REALLY keep in mind here... the arrangement on the original track in this video is already pretty great. It's dynamic, and allows additional dynamic elements like these to be successfully incorporated with the mix. If you're trying to add impact and you're finding that the timing is off, or that they're not fitting into the mix at all, chances are the energy levels in the arrangement could use a little adjustment.

Those transitional subtleties are so EGGcelent for making the big parts sound MAZZIVE

Building these elements is part of the fun but having a "go to" collection is pretty killer also! Nice work folks!

OMG, yesss!!!! I’ve purchased Machine’s pack from Drumforge, but I can’t have enough of these. I WILL buy every Post Prod pack you will ever release LOL. Awesome vid. Nowhere near enough Post Prod instructional vids for Metal out there, so thanks!

One of the biggest game changers I've been taught to clean up songs, let alone embedding narrative sound design into music! Awesome video

crazy! thanks joey and rest of the team!

On my last song I used some machine samples to give one part an industrial, "robotic" feel. In another part I used an ambulance siren, panned from left to right, so it sounds like it's passing by. And I even used the famous Godzilla roar back from 1954 movie :D

Aye

Brilliant, and thank you.

The scream of Godzilla through a distortion filter and a bit of eq... that was crazy xdddd

Excellent advices and great content! Thanks

Learned this trick idea from you a while back and use it all the time! Soooo good.

Great information, these new videos are really good, very modern and right to the point.This is teaching! What Reaper theme are you using? i love the fader caps? Thanks.

Perfect :)

Wow, thats an amazing difference.

Thanks great video

Not a new tip to me but always awesome to see how other people mix! Thanks for the helpful videos :)

It makes a lot of difference indeed. The Riser is the one that emphasises the drop the most!! At least to my ears.

Love this video. The first SIck got me creasing but very informative

For my band's debut album we used a lot of bitcrushed reverse cymbals with tremolo. I don't remember why I decided to do that but it turned out great in the end

Plz make more of these Sound Design videos!!!

Used rain and thunder effects to enhance a heavy cover if The Thunder Rolls I did.

Cool video! How are you opening a fader window while in the TCP view? Thanks! -chaz

One way I've done explosions at the beginning of the chorus is automate the cymbals to be a little louder for the first beat or two of the chorus. It's not quite as powerful as adding samples; it's kind of a compromise between using explosion samples and doing nothing to the transition at all

might get harsh tho

Would you then add this every time the chorus happens or would you do something different for each part of the song? Thanks, Joey!

NICE! what DAW is that?

Great tips as always! What's the name of that band? I definitely want to listen to their music.

What about the chorus in Scorpions Rock You like a Hurricane?? The "Here I am" part.

Love how Joey spells "HUGE"

Me gusto la explosión. Pero creo que lo demás sobra, porque se parece a todas las canciones de ahora.

One of my favorite samples is me hitting a metal trash can with a drumstick in a space with huge natural reverb. 😂

Reaper \m/

My bands 2013 EP had whale sounds, lion roars, a rattlesnake strike and tons more lol. Personally I would say the rattlesnake strike could be extremely useful for empty spaces and a “reverse snare” effect. Almost like an egg shaker into a whip sound. I’m honestly curious to see what other species of snakes could bring to the table.... 🐍🍽

How did u reverse the clip?

Does it matter what the bpm of a song is? Or will each sample automatically fit to whatever your tempo is on the grid? Also for the reverse cymbal effect does it matter if the sample doesn’t match the cymbals of the actual drum kit?

You can tempo match them as we have embedded bpm data into the samples. For reverse cymbal effects, I don’t think it matters if it matches or not.

My daughter Kia : ) btw,great tips!

Explosions live: the drummer whacks a tom and snare... while high-kicking both kinds of cymbals. If the drummer is short, it's more like a Shaolin flippy drop-kick thing.

Gonkulator ring mod from dod as a snare sample by slapping guitar strings 🤪

won't these samples have specific pitches that may conflict with the music?

what song is this?

Could we get the name of the reaper theme used here🙏🙏🙏🙏

That wo0o0sh tho...

We've sampled: rusty trombone, a deck chair, a bread bin, wet sloppy meat, me giggling and eating pizza, me rolling round on a deflating air mattress, various bits of scientific equipment including a 2km long synchotron, seismic waves from the deep earth, and the weird noises my cat makes.

Slapping raw steak on a cutting board to get a nice wet slap on my kick

Back in my day we just played music. Silly kids.

@@KeepTheGates those were the 70's, tape machine had at most 16 tracks and Page was a pioneer of many recording techniques to get the most out of what he got. If the Zeppelin was a 2000's band they probably would use the new technologies to improve their records. In the 70s they were criticized for some innovations they brought to music the same way you are criticizing this video.
