In The Studio with Deadbeat | Thomann
Музыка
We had the chance to meet Dubtechno maestro Deadbeat in his Berlin studio. He showed us his workflow, talks about hardware vs. software and lets us know the Korg MS10 is one of his favorite synths ever.
Interesting bits and pieces:
0:00 Intro
2:46 On Digital and Analog Technology
5:00 Sound Poerty
6:17 On The MS-10
11:40 Inside The Box
17:56 Sidechain Compression
22:35 Using Vocoders To Create Dub Chords

I really like these videos that you guys are doing where the artist just gets to ramble on and show his methodology and techniques without any heavy-handed editorial comment or product focus that is found in some other types of channels.

That moment when you subscribe for a giveaway and realize this yt channel of a big biiiig online store ACTUALLY puts up in-depth and interesting music-production content. Ha!
Can't agree more on the philosophy and the T-shirt. Scott's energy is so special, that I felt myself like talking to him in a room (or a space?). Great to see him doing what he does best, healthy, inspired and with shining eyes. Mine do shine too, watching him talking and recording with passion throughout the years. Great vocoder trick! Thank you, Scott!
What a lovely and inspirational guy
Brilliant Scott. LOVED IT. Thank you 🙏 so much sir! GREAT technique!
Absolutely loved this - thanks to Deadbeat for sharing his work flow, and for yourselves for filming and sharing!

A master! Thanks for this incredible admission into his studio and process!
This was incredible, so many gems of wisdom! Deep gratitude to you and Deadbeat for making it happen 😊🙏
THAT WAS TOP. I love the Drawn and Quartered album.
Hey! Thank you so kuch for this! The vocoder technique was unknown for me and that gives me the last missing type of sound/groove i was looking for! 🎉🎉🎉
Inspiring words SCOTT!!!! thanks for that piece of philosophy on hardware vs software...and I also LOVE your t-shirt!!!
you definitely can do everything ITB these-days, software is incredible and you can do more with it than hardware. Where software falls down for me is when you want to jam and practice playing chords etc, just switching on my Nord, Virus, Analog keys or Sub 37 and jamming away tweaking aimlessly is so easy to do compared to software.

100% agree. But where hardware then loses ground again to software is in the ability to revisit that jam days later and tweak the composition / performance slightly without losing the original sound. Although the specific synths you mentioned are actually some of the best at facilitating this, due to their tight software integration. Virus has Ti, Elektron has Overbridge, Sub 37 has a great Vst and comprehensive MIDI implementation. Don't know about Nord, but I assume it at least has full MIDI CC output (it better at that price point). But even with these, you still have to take nontrivial steps to capture the starting point of all parameters before you begin your jam session.
that was super interesting! keep these coming :)))
What a fantastic video and what a lovely guy Scott is. Thanks for the video! And I feel really lucky to have seen Scott live (Nachtdigital, I think 2015?)
Keep them coming!!
thanks for sharing your great tricks Deadbeat! amazing stuff! Scott and Thomann you rock!
This was really great, thanks.
What a great guy. Never new this was him. Truly love his music.
Awesome! Also, that painting on the wall looks rad.
Great video, thanks!
Thanks for the tips, tricks, and insight!

Very nice! Thx a lot!
Its cool to hear him say you can do everything in the box. I stopped using and buying hardware 10 years ago and never looked back. I sold off everything that had been collecting dust two years ago. Don’t miss it. I use a vocoder to make Dub chords sometimes. I send drums through it. Sometimes just play chords through it. His technique is interesting too. Might give this a try.
So inspiring!!!
Love this
The vocoder trick is so cool. I knew it’s all about filter+phaser+delay but what a cool way to add interesting rhythms to the chords
Big up yuhself Deadbeat!
great presentation! thanks!
Really Good!!!
Dub chord masterclass! Nice.
inspiring what you said about dynamically changing the trigger of side-chain.btw, with plugins like Gatekeeper you can perform envelopes (by trigerring them with midi controller)
Doing Dub Techno for years and i never thought about using a vocoder. Thanks for this.

Get some lovely handsome chords out of Arturia vocoder
This video is great and I'd love to see more like it. I also love that he's just using Ableton stock plugins, which I feel like get WAY overlooked, it's all in how you use 'em.
Cool stuff!
very cool and inspiring clip.
@21:31 Love when he explains the air pressure being changed in a room and how it applies to sidechain because at some point, it’s not adding or even removing instruments that makes a track great. The concept of playing with negative space is one that fascinates me. Would love to know if you use this in other ways than sidechaining Scott.

Absolutely. I think on a mix level it is great to create a tactile situation whether with a physical mixer or midi controller to move through parts and try different volume settings, also with fx levels. I think the more organic, human-driven decisions made during the arrangements and mixing process the better
Such amazing video! Who is the Brazilian Sound Poetry artist that was mentioned? I'd love to hear more!
Fascinating peak behind the curtain Dr Scott.
Love the nerd out!

Wow thank you Deadbeat and Thomann! Question: how do you usually process your sub bass?
@scottmonteith7258
2 жыл бұрын
not at all!!! subs are the foundation, just set them at a level that sounds good and don't touch them until you can hear them coming through a proper club sound system and have that channel with a fader to adjust to the room
Respect 🙏
MASTER 🙏
what a master
sick technique with the vocoder
Hello, good Video. What Audio Interface is been using? Does it Multirecording?
Cheers for this..that vocoder sounds very Dave Clark REDDISH..lol..
krass, deadbeat!
Has anyone an idea if Scott uses a plugin for Congas or if he just used a recording of real ones?
I thought the Open Sound Control protocol or OSC for short was the midi 2.0.
Where is the link to the artist page ?
Midi 2.0. I'll believe it when I see it, it's been rumoured for about a decade.
Lovely video. Typo in the title screen tho - should be “breathe” not “breath”.

Hi
Kind of results
In the future we'll be able to automate the production of dub techno so humans don't have to do it anymore. ;)

I tried I’m sorry but It was difficult to listen to 34minutes straight of “ uuuuuhm….aahhhhhhhm” I love his aesthetic, view on sound design and overall enthusiastic and creative approach to music in its many forms. It was just hard. But I’m just in one of those moods maybe.
