lol do you even know what you’re doing??
Awesome!! Btw, i’ve been wondering if you have any idea how to make those specific ambient falsetto vocals by hammock? Example would be ‘Breathturn’ or ‘Ten Thousand years wont save your life’. Can your method be used for it? Many thanks!
1:31 FM Synth right there
Great vid!!! Thanks a lot! Gonna try it!
1:26 – That was great! Lol!
I’m so glad you liked this technique and gave it a try! And I really like the results. 🙂
Very cool! I never thought of convolving audio with other non-IR audio…
So is it the IR that makes this great? I didn’t see where or what that was that you imported.
Great singing <3 : )
This trick is amazing, changes everything. Thank you for sharing.
“isn’t that cool?” DUDE THAT’S FUCKING DOPE ASF!!!! THANKSSS!!!
Thaaaank you!!! I’ve been looking everywhere to learn how to create sounds like this!
Great atmosphere! Very cool and inspiring video.
Look forward to your ‘steve Roach’ album 🙂
This was fun and enlightening but the original vocal track is buried so deep you could have used just about anything and saved a lot of time and trouble skipping the pitch correction among other things. It would be fun burying messages (only good ones of course 🙂 ) like “I love peanut butter and jelly sandwiches” in an otherwise profoundly serious sounding work of ambience.
BTW, does it matter what note or key you use to sample the reverb in? Say like I want sample the reverb from some cool bell sounds in the key range of A minor. What would be the best key to sample in? I would assume to sample in A minor? From watching your video, it seems there will be some element of a leak through, and you should sample as close as to the key range you are designing the reverb for. Then if you want to use that new fancy reverb for a different song that is in D minor, I guess you would have to pitch correct the reverb sample or just re-sample to D minor.
So. Freakin. Cool. Thanks!
How Cool!!! What a great Idea!!! I love your thinking!
Where the fuck has this been all my life? Ambient music is so mysterious. I can never seem to find good videos on ACTUAL sound design. This is glorious.
GREAT!
Hey! Ho!, HAHAHA!, Great Tutorial! btw.
what is that? working song..?
This is so cool! Now to start recording random stuff!
How did you get so many reverb options in Space Designer?
very nice!
Very COOL!
This video inspires me to try this technique asap. Great video man. Thank you!!!
