In this video, I downloaded a plugin called Bloom by Oeksound, which is a spectral-based tone shaper with four bands and adjustable center frequencies and volume changes. It also offers compression, attack and release settings, stereo modes, and presets. However, I found the price of $200 and the requirement of I lock installation for the trial version to be downsides, making it too expensive for what it offers.

In the video, I explained the concept of using a tilt setting of 4.5 dB per octave to achieve a balanced mixdown. I demonstrated how this can be applied within Bitwig's EQ+ and also within the Grid. By using the node signal and modulating the gain, I showed how to achieve the desired frequency balance without relying on external EQ processing.

In this video, I discuss my experience with the Poly-D analog synthesizer and how it sparked my interest in analog synthesis. I explain the basics of the synthesizer, including its tuning issues, oscillator options, and use of filters and effects. I demonstrate how I use the synthesizer to create chord progressions and incorporate it into my music production process.

It was a beautiful Sunday today, and I thought I'd whip up a little mini-mix with some more minimal Drum and Bass 170bpm tunes.

I was a bit bored today and thought I'd record a few sequences while playing on my synths. Nothing special, just messing around. The bass comes from the @behringer Poly-D, arps from the @MoogSynthesizers M32, drums from the DFAM, and a drone and @modarttvideos Pianoteq from @bitwig

In this video, I show you how to build a vocal rider plug-in using the Bitwig envelope follower. To record the modulator as automation data for future editing, you need to use a separate track. Bitwig Studio allows for customization and modification of the algorithm, giving you the flexibility to create your own unique vocal rider.

In my new video, I announced that KVR, the popular plug-in website, has released a free local plug-in management solution for Windows and Mac. This application scans your hard drive for VST2, VST3, and CLAP plug-ins, providing a list of all your installed plug-ins. You can synchronize this list with KVR for updates, reviews, and forum discussions.

In this video, I showcase my simple and highly efficient grain preset in Bitwig. By utilizing multiple recorders and adjusting recording length and spread, the preset allows for unique and diverse sounds. With the ability to manipulate play position, volume shape, playback spread, and more, this preset offers a versatile and creative tool for experimentation and sound design.

I'm adding various harmonics in and out with the @MoogSynthesizers Subharmonicon, running it through a Valhalla Supermassive, and recording everything in Bitwig. In @bitwig , I'm playing a random backdrop that I created in another tutorial video yesterday https://youtu.be/J_Iw2eUMYGc My @behringer Poly-D is also providing a nice warm bass. Nothing special, really, but I felt like recording and documenting the whole thing.

In this video, I demonstrate a workflow for creating complex patterns and ambient songs using the Trident synthesizer. By sampling different presets from the bell and mallet category, slicing them, and renaming the files, I can load them into a sampler to create a unique and dynamic sound. This method allows for easy experimentation and can be applied to various genres, from ambient to percussion.
