    should do more stuff in vital. youre teaching makes more sense than most videos i watched over the last year. these are good videos thanks. most of us don't want to buy serum lololol sorry. I do have Apparillo synth tho. omg it's so good. maybe i get Serum some day, it's just expensive and they don't seem to have sales.

    Hey Chris, I came across your channel over the past few days and feel like I have already learned so much! I have been stewing on a concept for a dark ambient album/project over the past few years but never really had the confidence to dedicate myself to the goal of putting together a full EP or album in this style (I’m very much a beginner when it comes to synth sound design). However, your videos have been and I’m sure will continue to be a massive learning tool as I work towards seeing this project through to its release! Will definitely have to pickup that Serum preset pack of yours soon as well. Sounds brilliant!

    hello Chris, I have been following you on KZread and I came across one of your videos that you did about a year ago regarding creating space ambient music for beginners. You were using a plug-in step sequencer called Stepic. so I looked it up and I would really like to purchase it however I have FL Studio 20 as my DAW and wherever I read about Steptic they say FL Studio 20 is not fully compatible with it. so my question to you is would you know of a similar JST that would be compatible with FL Studio 20? I've been doing a lot of research and it's really difficult to find anything that is similar to stepic. however you might know offhand. I would appreciate the help if you have any time thank you.

    Hey Chris, I've been noticing on all your sessions you have what looks like the same EQ curve. Have you ever talked about what's going on there? I'd love to know a bit more about it

    It's called the Utility template for Ableton Live. It was created by my partner Don Tyler. You can find all about what it is and how to get it in this video: kzread.info/dash/bejne/dn6l1pmJhJq1Y7A.html

    HELLO again, I had a quick question about hybrid setup.. I have some hardware synths, an akai force (I was hoping to use to basically replace any computer/ daw), a midi keyboard and eurorack, the synths and rack all generally play nicely together, BUT i am very curious which in your opinion is the best experience for most reliable way to get the Mac (or PC if u have a suggestion which I have both) but the Mac is the dedicated music computer... but to get it all working together, expert sleepers interface module? Or midi? Or what do you think? I have cubase and ableton and am open to kinda trying whatever. Thanks!

    I've heard the ES-9 is the way to go, but there are certainly more less expensive options out there! I'm still trying to find a solution myself. Best of luck to you!
