Thank you for continuing this training. It really helps with using your software. Already have stratus and going to be getting abyss and Jupiter. Love the sound of your guitars.

Great stuff !!! Especially the MIDI-files are very helpful! I'm looking forward to the following videos.

Keep them coming! I need all the knowledge I can get!

Love the S3 guitar series! Looking forward to the 8 string this year!

I used Evolution Dracus (Orangetree) for a long time - gotta say Shreddage has a couple of really positive sides to it that Dracus and the rest don't have; modular fx (freely set order, saveable settings, save/load between different Shreddage instruments), free ADSR controls for the articulations, proper modular save/load for patches (you can choose which ones you save and load out of the three tabs which are 1 articulation settings, 2 main engine settings and 3 the effects chains; you can save/load these separately whichever way you want to). Also, in general, if you want to djent and shred, Shreddage Jupiter (and Serpent, why not the others too, although I personally think Hydra's djent sound is surprisingly dull, haven't used it though, just heard elsewhere!) has a better and/or more easily attainable sound for that (ofc). Also, Dracus etc have 2 palm mutes and a mute, and that's it, and no global offset (very useful for de-djenting and making the sound softer in Shreddage), no rakes, no staccatos, no multi-parameter articulations tabs, no per-layer velocity-to-volume, no time windows for release noises. That being said, Dracus has some stuff Shreddage doesn't: automatable effects (the only one I'm really missing from Shreddage is the awesome Wah pedals they have, you can midi-control and/or automate them), different pickups, pick modeling (I'm not a guitarist so I don't really need that), 3 squeals instead of 1 (I don't mind having just 1 because the 1 Shreddage has is awesome), strum/riff engine for writing your own riffs (haven't used but it's pretty damn good) although ofc the strum engine of Shreddage is really good too. But any day, I'd prefer Shreddage for general, highly adjustable djentage (as Stevie T would say)/shredding. Great job with these.

This one was very helpful! I got Rogue recently

Thanks for making tutorial for shreddag 3 guitar 🤘

I've been using shreddage for almost 2 years now, and I'm impressed by how amazing they're

Thanks for this Video. This was really helpful. Now my stuff sounds more natural \m/

Jupiter is my favorite of all. Really great to get those lower djenty notes. Hope you release an 8 string guitar soon!

They have the Hydra now. Wondering if you've used it and how it compares with Rogue and Jupiter.

These are spectacular, thanks for sharing with us! The guided tour of techniques makes me even more excited about using Shreddage to get an even more realistic guitar sound. For the playback in these videos, are you using any effects/processing such as eq or compression beyond what the presets you’re showing already provide?

Nice tutorial, are you thing to do tutorial about mixing these guitars rhythm and lead? In context. Thank you for the hard work

I just purchased Hydra. I'm assuming all these features are included in that as well... I think this Jupiter sounds pretty rad but I figured since I'm not likely to ever purchase an 8-string guitar I might be able to put a plugin version to use.

Ok, i did the same steps and my guitar doesn't sound the same? 01:44 Here you talk about mixing techniques. Is there a future video yet about those mixing techniques? Also what are the snapshots for your second guitar, the abyss i mean. I just want to make my plugin pull off the exact same clean guitar sound like it is in the video. I'm using FL studio, and i use 2 contact patterns. One for Jupiter and one for Abyss. When i combine them and use the same notes, all i get is low quality sound. Please pay me attention im begging you. The only difference between my guitar and yours is that mine has more noise. The one in the video seems so clear... please some help.

Given all the articulations and data you have collected, you should seriously consider releasing a phrase based library that enhances and improves the work flow for faster strumming results

Can you please demonstrate if it's possible to do elaborate pinch harmonic techniques? Like dive bombing?

Most helpful video series on programming guitars I've seen so far. I love your products. Started with shreddage 2, through the coupon code for Jupiter it was a no brainer, I love it. The drums are Shreddage drums I guess? I still have to figure out how to make them sound this powerful, but I just have to learn a lot how to mix things in general :D Still feel like a newbie when I watch this. xD

Ah, good to know, these drums sounds awesome. But I finally watched the Shreddage Drums Tutorial and I just underestimated how powerful this plugin is. I mostly worked with Addictive Drums - Heavy United before and had to tweak and compress so much to get a powerful result. I made an own preset with SD in like 20 Minutes and it was wow (in my ears xD) I look forward to make some awesome music with Jupiter and SD but I keep an eye on GGD anyway x)

@Nabeel Ansari alright, definitely will check them out, thx :)

Very instructive tutorials. My question is: besides the very well programmed shreddage plugins, how much work in effecting your demos is necessary to reach such a highly professional sound? In other words: how far is the distance between the result obtainable by merely programming the shreddage plugins and mixing/effecting such result? Thank you!

Great! Wonderful tutoriaI! I have to ask what drum library are you using ?

I don't understand why my Guitars don't have the Palm Mute key? The Palm Mute key on mine is the PowerChords.

Great sound! I assume these articulations are easy to put into the BRSO Articulate (a free software developed by Blake Robinson for FL Studio) and use like I'm using all my orchestral plugins ?

For me, Jupiter is much better than Rogue and Serpent. Hope you could make a video about articulation in future.

can you record a melody with all regular notes and then go back a change certain notes to be palm mute or must you record them while your changing?

What keybed type or features do you most recommend for playing fluent and articulately specially riffs to sound more natural and give more expression: action keys, synth like, aftertouch, weighted, semi weighted..

@zirconst

4 жыл бұрын

My personal preference is semi-weighted or synth action for guitar stuff, since you're not usually playing very sensitive dynamic material.

Hey guys, really helpful series here. I've upgraded to S3 Jupiter from the original S2. I'm struggling to get a hang of the new engine though with the keyswitches and was wondering if there was any resources/info on adapting the new engine using the old style velocity method. I just find the original way is a little more in keeping with how I write. Hope you can help

Have you checked out the TACT tab? Let's say you want to put Mutes on vel 1-69. It's really easy. Just go to the Mute articulation, set the keyswitch (KEY) the same one as sustain (C-1 I believe). Then, in the second 'row' below the KEY rule, select VEL from the dropdown. Set that to 1-69 for mutes. For sustain, change that to something like 70-109. 110+ is usually a good range for the Rake articulation to come in,

@@PaulOwenMusic In the snapshot menu, try switching to "_Styles -> Metal Rhythm". This matches the palm mutes exactly how they were in Shreddage 2. Of course, the velocity range will be slightly different so the exact same MIDI won't necessarily play back the same way (this is because we made the mapping more consistent per key) but the audio is otherwise identical. You definitely should not be getting hanging notes, we aren't aware of any bugs with that.

I've been a long time shreddage user and I'm having big time issues getting the quality wide stereo affect that shreddage two had when routing to multiple channels with Hydra.

@zirconst

3 жыл бұрын

It's actually the same procedure as in Shreddage 2. You just create two instances of the patch in Kontakt, and route each instance to a different output in your host. Check out this link on the NI site that explains exactly how to do the routing for multiple instances (the difference is that w/ S3, you WANT everything on the same MIDI channel.) support.native-instruments.com/hc/en-us/articles/209558589-Using-KONTAKT-as-a-Multi-timbral-Instrument-in-Logic-Pro-X

Is the a key or keys for rhythmic strumming? For example, the fast single note and power chord palm mutes shown at 1:46 in the video are not feasible to do by pressing a single key that quickly. Obviously, I can program everything in manually, but I figure there's a way to get those kinds of chuggy rhythms "live".

Yes there is a keyswitch right under the playable range that re-triggers the last played note. This allows you to do quick left/right hand chugging.
