A really good course. He goes over everything slowly and clearly. It’s interesting to see how a few simple parts can be used to build a nice track.
If anyone has a link to the drum machine library he’s using please post it. I could not find it.
@julienangel - You don’t need to buy a bunch of stuff. You can make these sorts of sounds with free plugins and free sounds you can find online.
This is pretty good. I like how he explains everything he does.
nice
Thanks for sharing all this. Priceless!
and this my friends is how to earn millions of views on youtube and millions of listens on spotify ! 
GG simple but effective mix !
Good
very inspiriing, love the arp bass!
Great video! I’m excited to get started on my own projects.
Hey @TheMessenjah
Glad to read that you loved the tutorial, might be a good opportunity to check ANA 2 Synth & this brand new presets pack dedicated to Synthwave genre
Just saying… LOL 
This was fantastic! Thank you for making!
Amazing! thanks for doing this SonicAcademy!
Stuck on tutorial 2…can’t seem to reproduce the sound after plugins. I even used the included FLP file directly, without modification, in FL Studio 20 and it sounds like crap compared to what is show in the video. I also tried copying over all of the plugin settings to equivalent plugins of Presonus Studio One 4, but the sound after plugins is still not as good as in the video.
What am I missing?
Hey there @kmav
IMO it’s almost impossible to get the same results as what you hear from a tutorial, you can get pretty close but not the same. The reason for that is that too many parameters are involved, like the DAW & plugins we"re using to replicate a tutorial and track and also our listening environment & gears VS how it was made & recorded for the course.
That’s something to bear in mind, now the question is are you getting a similar sound or something very far from the course ? Might be good to pay attention to levels and input levels reaching the plugins you used but again it’s a normal thing that your track would sound different than the tutorial’s final mix-down.
I think the important point is to grab the techniques out of the tutorials and to learn how to replicate them with your own Studio setup, both hardware & software parts, don’t be too harsh on yourself if not getting the exact same results or polished sound than a tutor, using one or another plugin or DAW can make a drastic difference and sometimes, even a slight plugin parameter value can induce differences in sound results, even if you can use a full course project with the exact same plugins & parameters values, there still be a difference due to your own listening environment, so getting a similar sound is already an achievement IMHO.
nice
My go to course
bought my subscription because of this tutorial! I don’t have FL but the knowledge is in scope!
Is the Lush-101 preset “Brash” used in Tutorial 03 (Bass and Arp) at 3:45 included in the course resources? If not, could you please point users to where we can find it? Thanks.
Hi there @gnmidi
Yes, once the .zip archive expanded you’ll find a folder Sonic Academy - HTM Synthwave Resources and from there go to Projects Files/Presets and all soft-synth presets are there. In this case the Lush101 Preset is the edited version of this “Brash” preset used in the video, so it’s named after Main Arp - Lush101.shprs
You also find the midi parts in the course resources.
Hope this helps !
Really, really enjoyed this course, I learned something new in every video. Thank you Jordy & the Sonic Academy crew! And that VSDSX drums plugin… that’s gonna be my new favorite toy for quite a while! Wowza!!
I am a poor polish student, but I decided that starvation is will be not that poor choice, when I can pay for this course! And for real - this course is awesome and it alone pays for the monthly subscription plan
