Nice, this is so helpful. I'm not a straight pop musician, but trying to incorporate more polished pop elements to make my music more accessible. I don't think there's any danger of losing my weirdness, so now it's more about learning the professional polish tricks and approaches. thanks, just subbed.

Incredible lesson, thanks..

Love your lessons bro!!! I've been learning a lot from your presentations. Much appreciated. Already a subscriber!!!

Awesome video. Quick question: How do you actually know which waves to use on a synthesizer, for example a sine wave vs saw wave to get the sound you are looking for? I’m working on learning to make better synths but am a little confused. Thank you. Keep up the great work

This was so helpful! Fantastic! Thanks. I had a couple of questions: 1) at 21:59, are the swells you played, the choir sound reversed? 2) I'm loving how you're layering sounds, particularly synths and drums/drum loops. I wonder how you know when you've got "enough" layers and how you know whether you have too much. Are you strictly doing it intuitively, based on what just sounds good to you or do you have specific goals in mind (e.g. filling out certain parts of the frequency spectrum, having a certain amount of motion)? That is, are there specific criteria that you're using to decide when to start/stop searching for more sounds/loops to layer?

There's another video he did a while back where he creates a song from scratch - the Taylor Swift one, I believe!

How do you mix for live? We don't have a keyboard players so I need to layer strings, percussion and some builds etc...but it sounds tinny?

I hope I win the giveaway 🤞. If not then good luck to everyone else!! Ima watch this video when I get out of school cause I’m on my lunch break and we all know Austin got mad skillz

Sick!! How do you get those vocal layers so tight and aligned ?

3 жыл бұрын

Honestly these aren't even vocaligned. The singer is literally a fucking beast. He knocked out all these vocals in probably 30 minutes. I think the ending runs is the only thing that took more than 1 take, and that took like 3.

Those bells are sick, the 2nd one kinda sounds like Polyphia G.O.A.T. If you have the names on the omnisphere presets that’d be awesome.

Like always demo sound way betterthan the final mix

hi Austin, you seem to approach layering in a different mindset, you don't seem to worry that much about colliding frequencies, i mean, those snares seems to sit on a very similar region, you limit them in a group in order to it doesn't build a lot? great content as always!

@MakePopMusic

3 жыл бұрын

No limiting in a sub group. I just let them smash together and then control them with levels. It's a super dense song so I was able to keep all of these pretty heavily featured. Sometimes I go with the sculpt method if I am trying to design a sound. If I am trying to thicken something, I just throw stuff on top of eachother and make sure there are no phase issues.

@@MakePopMusic i'm not really used to dense songs, it makes sense, i'll try that approach sometime, thanks!

How would you mix a ballad that has softer volume verses and make sure they aren’t to quite so that when it’s time to master the limiter isn’t crushing the louder chorus’s? Volume automation?

It just depends on the project. Some are done in a day, some take a few weeks, some get dragged out over a year. It’s really up to the artist and their timeline. I just work to make them feel comfortable. I never want to rush anything, but I also don’t want them ever waiting on me 😁
